    A real shame. I have owned a few DD blocks over the years, and whilst my personal preference has always been EK it's always sad to see a well loved enthusiast name wind down.

    Huh. Never expected them to go away - I thought they were a relatively big player in the WC world..

    Well that's a shame, my very first blocks were Danger Den. I wish them all the very best though.

    Wow!

    I had a few DD parts over the years, this is a real shame.

    Although, I never realised where the company name came from until now.

    Real shame, they have a good reputation for quality parts in the WC market, before they disappear completely could they send all the dimension specs of their parts so we can Sketchup them accurately :idea:

    To my eternal shame, up until recently I hadn't made the link between Linux, Linus Torvalds and Unix :blush::blush::blush:

    So feel better about yourself.

    I still have some DD blocks in the garage.

    Off topic, Sc0rian what did you do in a former life to earn neg rep? I've meant to ask a few times before.

    In fairness, they haven't made much worth buying in quite a few years.

    A 75% reduction in sales? So they're only doing a quarter of the sales they did before? :p

    I honestly have no idea :idea: My posting pretty much stopped in the last 3-4years, so must have been a long time ago. I blame dom__ (lol if he is still about)

    You can go back 4 years on one page of my posts, haha.
