Patience padawan. 
Learned, you haven't yet.
When you place a Busse (or kin) order, you're supposed to forget about it so it's a surprise when it ships. You'll get it eventually. If it has been more than about 4 months, drop Trissy or Josh an e-mail Monday after they're back from Knob.

Odd, can't edit the previous post. Server won't accept it. 
Anyway, if it helps, I've had an order in with the custom shop for about 10 weeks now. I was originally quoted 8-16 weeks, and I was recently concerned it might ship while I was going to be out of town on an extended trip (then the government shutdown happened...). I was told that with their current workload, orders are tending to ship more toward the long end of the quoted timeframe.

At this point, i'm in no hurry. It would actually be more convenient if it didn't complete until January.

When I ordered my KDSH it came WAAAAY earlier than quoted. Maybe someone backed out of an order. I ordered mine in October, and yesterday got an E-Mail that it was done. Actually surprised me. It's fantastic when you get something like this SOONER than you expect. I was probably at 4 weeks total. Good luck to you. Maybe you'll get lucky too.
