Greetings:

Incre, LLC works on, though quietly. In addition to the founder Dave Gore,
we have Mide Brindley, an electrical/software engineer and myself, a
mechanical engineer. We continue to develop our process with aluminum
alloys 1188 & 4043. Steel and Ti remain for the future.

Right now we are tackling orifice plugging and other reliability issues
that stand in the way of a commercial process. Resolving these issues
resembles fishing. How long it takes depends not only on the skill of the
angler, but on the behavior of the fish! I would love to be making
requests for beta test opportunities, but for the moment the fish refuses
to cooperate. If you want to know more about our process, I refer you to
our patents.

Thank you for your intrest,

David Maxfield
Incre, LLC
