Hi guys,
Sorry for my absence. Been avoiding work lately due to, er, work, mostly; I'm back after the Christmas shutdown and there's a lot on; mental energy at a low ebb and a few real life bits and pieces to deal with too.
Could you please make the set of 3 antenna bases available? I'm ready for a short order.
Sure, I’ll get on that tonight.
My replacement parts arrived this morning! Thanks again Nwerke for the antennae boxes. They fit great!
Good to hear! If you can’t get anywhere with the antennae, let me know and I’ll have a go.
Anyone have any news about the forward section of the armature for the 1/700 version? I thought someone other than Dave was at work on it...
See psimon’s post above.
My expected ship dates used to be 2 weeks, now they are 3 weeks. Either business is too good and they are not keeping up or all these Cygnus pieces are driving them crazy
I got the same email. Parts I ordered before Christmas won’t ship till next week. Seems to be the new normal.
Is anyone else waiting for an Email response from them?
Yes. My two new lower spine pieces (with holes for stands, something I didn’t have time for originally) won’t print, apparently. Weird because the original version was fine and the struts are all the same sizes. Their email was supposed to include a picture showing the problem, as usual, but didn’t. I haven’t heard back but it’s only a day or two since I wrote.
On a similar note has anyone heard from Dave? last he wrote he was finished his files and was going to update his store with all the parts but there are many parts still missing and he hasn't been on here in so long.
I admit to being worried. The only things I’ve had from him in many months are spam emails suggesting his system or account has been hacked. I’ve alerted him to this but no response and those malicious emails still come from time to time.
I agree. Prints have gone down in quality in the past few months. 3 of the 5 antenna I received last month were messed up on one end and almost 50% of the pieces I just received for my Hasbro Millennium Falcon are very substandard from previous prints. It looks like bad resin or a bad cure or the printer is just out of alignment.
I’ve also had one out-of-alignment part in WSF, and all four stern platform pieces came with major integrity issues, but that’s on me as those four were “print-it-anyway” orders i.e. the ‘print it and charge me even if it’s crap’ option. I placed a bunch of those in a panic on the last day of the old pricing, and they should have printed fine. Around the sides the upper row of X tie rods were fine and the lower rows didn’t print properly for the most part and the ones that did were wonky. No difference in the file…! They should have been perfect but I took the chance, so I can't complain.
Haven't heard anything from Martyn in a week either. I hope he is OK and just otherwise busy.
Yep sorry. I’ve had a few queries I haven’t yet answered; also the rejection notices not yet looked into and there’s a few big jobs I need to get onto but I won’t find time this week for most of that I’m afraid.
My latest order had a couple of his repaired parts get rejected within an hour of placing the order. If it is like the Falcon part that was rejected earlier this week it was because a file name or the like was not what they were looking for. As soon as Tony (FZ6) called them on it they said to just reorder but it is now too late for this go around of ordering.
Bluhhhhhhhh. I don’t get it; the spine *
middle* piece is fine. What’s wrong with the front and rear pieces? No idea.
Cheers,
Martyn
