Attic Tray prototype back from fabrication

[UtahBrandon]

Does the Attic Tray (at $418) come complete with the Traction Board Bracket (at $198), or do I have to buy them both (at $616)?
$616 is a bit rich for me.

Agreed that is rich. I have a forum member that wanted a one-off in white powder coat so I created that product just for him as the powder coating company charges a lot for a one-off color.

I’ll pull that down and create a real product in black next week.

@UtahBrandon, any update on when we can see these listed? Pricing/bundle? Thanks!

The powder coat company kept pushing me back over the Holidays. Bummer, but understandable. They finished the custom one-off white color yesterday and I shipped it out today. I should have the black ones ready to ship next week. I won’t have any photos until I get them back but I can get a pre-order up this weekend.

They’re currently being priced to cover costs and justify my time and up-front risk of inventory expense. I think I’ll end up at $329. I’m not inclined to offer bundle pricing as I do need to cover my expenses and I’m not necessarily in this to drive high volume, but rather to offer my design to the community.

If there is a lot of demand, I’ll get price breaks on production and can lower the price accordingly, however I’m not expecting a ton of sales on this item.

Here’s a preview of gloss white, which cost me closer to $450 as the powder coat company charged me a high fee for the one off color. It does look awesome though.

Thanks. I will wait for you to load the pre order and punch one through. The white sure came out slick.

Well I think that's the point of a group by... Not to cut into your profits, but get lower manufacturing cost from your third party by buying a bunch of them.

If you're around the $300 mark for the whole setup, I'll probably be in. It's the one thing I'm missing is attic storage.

I'm more concerned with combined shipping. I assume shipping for both of these won't be cheap but together has to save some.

They're such completely different form factors, that they won't/can't ship together in a single box. The attic tray ships in a 46x12x5 box and the brackets in a 15x10x10 box.

I've had enough Traction Board Bracket orders to see my shipping costs range from about $10 to $32 and I charge a flat $15 to ship USPS priority 2 day. UPS is more expensive for this size box.

It's early on the attic tray but it looks like around $60 to $120 to ship USPS and $35 to $60 to ship UPS Ground. I anticipate a $25 flat rate shipping on this item.

hey Brandon awesome work on this design cant wait to see what else you come up with for the bronco.
So the hole set up is 600$ that not bad with what steel cost now a days.
Have you seen if this would work in a 2 door yet?

Edit in else I miss read your website but you need both the brackets to run the traction board with the basket right?

Unfortunately, it won’t work on a two door as the brackets take advantage of existing nutserts, and the angle of the 4door roll bar.

if my math is correct, you can get the two traction board brackets plus the attic tray shipped to your door for $567. 4 door only

Dam thought shrinking it / adjusting little bit would work. Anyways, awesome product Brandon, hope everyone likes it.
