I think there is, at best, only a loose correlation between the order number sequence and the production sequence... From what I've been reading about how they progress, it's more dependent on parts availability and option selection and the whims of Malvern. But that's OK w/ me, just adds to the creation "mystique", eh?

Honestly though, I don't think it would be too much to ask for a bit more visibility into the order status for those in the queue. I considered taking a quick trip over to see mine come together, but the unpredictability of it all makes it not very practical to arrange.
