I have a question. When we receive the hilt, do we need to add a patina or clear coat (I'm not too knowledgable about paints and stuff) for the bronze and/or copper windvanes to keep their color?

Mine is not yet picked up either. I wouldn’t mind if there would be a little more information sharing, eg. what is going on, what to expect and when.
Hopefully this answers some questions since we’ve been feeling anxious about it too:
Lewis has been...
1: getting the boxes and hilts packed and prepped.
2: closing on and moving into a shop-space to streamline his workload (this was suppose to happen months ago but due to lockdown restrictions this only just happened this week right prior to another extended U.K. lockdown.) Unfortunately he didn’t have a much of a choice with timing in this case -
3. printing tracking and labeling to be ready for pickup.
4. Waiting for DHL to pickup where we will all see the origin scan and tracking info to start to roll in.
Lewis is currently...
1. Managing the shop move-in logistics
2. Continuing to print and label
3. In contact with and waiting on DHL frustratingly.
From DHL: ‘it is the busy season’ (subtext, during the holidays in an unprecedented pandemic)
I can’t speak for Lewis and what he sees across the world but I’m confident that as soon as DHL comes through for pickup many minds will be quite at ease and the delivery time is supposed to be expedient

Thank you for the answer.
I talked with Lewis and now it is totally clear. The process is a lot more complex than just a “big shipping on Friday” and all is done. I did not know this, I am not sure anyone knew this. All I am trying to say with my not native English language knowledge that if I would know all the infos I wouldnt expect a tracking number/shipping yesterday. And now I understand why my tracking number still says “not picked up yet”.
Thank you for all of your hard works and effort that made this happen.

To be fair, everyone was told they should be “out” by the 10th. And then again that “pickup” was scheduled for yesterday. Hard to know what to expect going forward
just hoping that it’s not too much longer
Stuff happens. Knowing'why' makes it easier to be patient, so I appreciate the update. Thank you.
Quite understood.... yes label printing began the tenth with anticipated pickup by the parcel service but they didn’t deliver.To be fair, everyone was told they should be “out” by the 10th. And then again that “pickup” was scheduled for yesterday. Hard to know what to expect going forward
Pickup was rescheduled with good will for Friday and again they didn’t deliver.
So trust me we’re feeling more upset than anyone but also trying not to create distress among those waiting. The excitement and anxiety is equally palpable! It seems like it’s just an unprecedented delivery and pickup season and despite being in the books we’ve been getting the short end of those delays for some reason.
Rest assured Lewis has been on the phone with their management putting up quite the fuss... we are however at their mercy for expedited and free 3 day international and domestic delivery
So I'll add some clarity here. I just spoke to Lewis on the phone.
So when the 10th was set and communicated we expected boxes on a timeframe. That timeframe ultimately became THREE weeks late and way past even the timeframe we knew when that date was communicated.
Then, by the time that was revised and revised and finally arrived, Lewis was up against his facilities move. And scrambling to try and make up for the lost time due to boxes missing. He had to print labels and associate to each box because the tracking numbers are per order and associated. It's not like he can just batch print labels and randomly assign them. The label is generated PER order so just keeping those straight is a logistic nightmare.
When DHL never showed up, and then contacting them when they missed the actual pickup they came back and said "ooof we're busy you have to wait until we get there"....
Then it was supposed to be at 5:30 pm GMT Friday. DHL did not come. Additionally the reason they stated was that they had to send a lorry which their own logistics missed due to the parcel weights and they never informed us of.
insofar as what WE have been told by DHL, _actual_ pickup of the 500kg (yes 500 KG) of parcels is Monday but could be as late as Wednesday. We won't know until they actually decide to show up.
Lewis however DOES recognize the delay and will be taking care of you guys. I will leave him to details but I heard him say discount....

I finally just got a copy of the deleted ROTJ cave scene on blu ray after having 2 sets that didn’t include the deleted scenes. How the heck that scene didn’t make the final movie cut is head scratching? Has anyone ever reproduced the tool Luke uses to work on the internals in the scene? I’ve got the MOM standard kit coming and all the drama just makes it all the sweeter. No worries.
we have theories on what the tool is but have not sourced the identical one.

Sounds like potentially a good project run maybe sometime in the future to compliment the MoM kit.
