Hi, guys unfortunately I've got bad news. I'm not capable of making this blaster. I'm really sorry that was one of my biggest projects yet that I was working on it since Adam Savage posted first photo from SDCC of K's blaster. Results I've received on castings are not satisfied for me and I don't want to provide you guys quality which is very questionable to me. I was making many tests with different techniques, but it's really a lottery and parts don't fit as they should at kit stage so I believe there could it really difficult to make it working properly and with all moving parts. My current skills and tools are not enough to finish it as it should be.

I'm really bump out because you've trusted me with your time and money ( of course you will received full refund) and this project was really big deal to me. It's lesson to me to don't starting run before finish first working prototype. So once again I'm really really sorry. I made all refunds right now your money should be back on your PayPal accounts.

sorry to hear that Elilay. and sorry for all the time and money you must have invested in that project, I hope it's not too bad for you.
I got the money back already.

I got my refund as well. Sorry that it didn't work out.
Let's see what Brandomack will be able to do though.

Money received as well… Thanks elilay

Sorry to hear that the run - the parts - did not pass your quality check.
But i think you took the right decission… I am pretty sure you struggled a lot with yourself.

Saddened by this news -- but very much encouraged by your dedication to quality, your honest admission that you can't complete the work to your own high standards, and the way you've delivered full refunds immediately. I wish everyone showed as much integrity.

Thank you again for having tried so hard to make this work, and for doing the right thing when you found that you couldn't pull it off.

I'll be looking forward to your future projects!
