Geeez, it looks like I sold my diy 97A clone way too cheap.
That's from 2013.
It been regurgitated.
Old article, but their "news" on their website was updated in May.
They still haven't produced anything yet though.

It's doubtful they ever will produce anything. They got lucky being able to restart the line soon after it closed. Moving the line, the loss of people and the loss of existing materials means that ship has permanently sailed, I'd say. They may be able to pimp their existing tooling for some $ or use, but it will never be the same as the old WE tubes. Which generally shouldn't be a big deal, there's plenty of great alternatives out there already.

Maybe they are still looking for the original plans to build those tubes.
I've given up hope of ever getting a warranty replacement for a tube that died over a decade ago. :-(
