Red Rock Follow Focus

I'm in dire need of a follow focus unit to use with our Brevis. From the looks of it, the Red Rock model seems to be compatible and the best option. I was wondering;

1) If anyone had matched those two units and found success.

2) More importantly, if anyone knows the estimated delivery period after purchasing the unit. I recall my friend who got an M2 having to wait a while since they hand-make everything. Is there a similar lengthly wait period involved with ordering a follow focus? If so, then...

3) Does anyone else have any recommendations for an affordable follow focus unit?

Unfortunately, I didn't plan for a follow focus unit in our budgeting (My DP at the time was bringing equipment), so the Red Rock one is even a bit out our price range. That said, I have no problem spending money if it's well spent, so i'm all ears for recommendations. The real determining factor in the situation is the delivery window. Production resumes on a feature in a few weeks and need this baby as fast as possible.

Thanks for your time and help,

Todd


EDIT: I think i'm going the Indifocus route now, so I apologize for wasting board space. Feel free to delete this post.
