    Yes, you have to put down a deposit and then wait until they’re built. I have two and am waiting for delivery of a Jack plane pretty soon. Well worth the wait.

    Thanks. That’s the problem. I haven’t been able to find just a motor which would work without the canisters or bags, which I would obviously remove if that’s what I have to end up buying.
