So COVID has shot the groupsets of Shimano. I am not a dura-ace person and I still shift with cables. Are they going to be making or shipping Ultegra or 105 stuff. Maybe it all is dried but and in the end looking for it will never come. I would even go to a disk brake set up if I could find 105 stuff. I have Ultegra now but frankly 105 is just as good.

While you're waiting, you might consider making your own parts (and
selling extra parts to others in your situation). For example:
https://stlbase.com/browse/bicycle+shimano/
https://www.yeggi.com/q/shimano/
Unfortunately, making the stamped steel cassette gears will probably
be too difficult. However, it might be possible to use a water jet
cutter to make the chainrings.
