Details N Scale - Still in business?

I found some very nice-looking unwrapped centerbeam lumber loads made by a company called Details N Scale based out of Portland, OR. Unfortunately their website isn't set up for direct orders, so I emailed and called them but got no response. Their website mentions a 2024 date so it's not like it was gathering virtual dust for a long time. Does anyone know about this company's whereabouts?

I would try simply calling them.

To Place an order by phone, call (503) 283 4601. Office Hours 8:30 to 5:30 PST or PDT, M Thru F, 10am to 4 pm Sat. We can advise our customers of stock levels at that time.

Yes, they are still in business. I bought a lumber load from them at the last Bridgetown (Portland) RPM meet.

I called and left a message during their listed business hours (I'm in the same time zone) and never got a return call.

I just called and spoke to Dave. It's a one man show and he is still in business - he explained that sometimes it takes a while to respond to emails and he can't always stop working on product to pick up the phone.

Hopefully, you'll hear back from him this week.
