thank you so much for your patience everyone!
This is taking months longer than we expected and wanted it to.
We are not rushing this though and want to make sure we make as accurate and functional a version as we can.
2 prototypes are done and are shipping today we are told by shop.
Which usually mean shipping in next couple of days.
We are making a few changes to the run for simplicity and also to reward those who got in and who are waiting.
We will no longer offer this without the install kit.
As mentioned before Install kits includes the pcbs for the switches and for blade connectivity as well as a printed chassis designed by Shtokcustomworx( which will
Be compatible with metal printed parts you can add to it ordering from shapeways).
This is because for quantity sake we are making as many of those install parts as we are making hilts.
So even if you selected not to have them you will have them in your kit.
To show our gratitude for everyone who has got on this early we are adjusted the invoices and you will no longer see a charger for the install kit.
That is 35$ removed for that line item.
Also there are around 140 units reserved with around 5 more that need to be invoiced.
So we are around 50 units away from reach a price break.
With removing the install kit prices from the final cost the price break is changing.
If we reach 200 units reserved it will changed to 380$
We are also working with Devin from the saber trade to bring the cost down on his blade design that is going hand and hand with this run.
Also, with these prototypes we will be dipping the main grip two toned part on the right in the photo to see if we can darken the aluminum to the shade we desire, and to see if we can we could offer that as a service as we really think pcb etching solution can bring about the texture and color we are aiming for.
Regarding time line, we will have one for you as soon as we approve these prototypes which are in route this week.
We apologize for the delays and we Thank you all so much
Expect the adjustments in the invoice to Happen this week regarding the install kits and if you are due refunds because you accidentally paid in full we will be processing those as well.
