Is that not the most exciting email you can wake up to? Hope its true and not just an automated reply to any order.
Got the same email, on the website it says something like "a packing list has been printed" so I am not expecting a "packed" status for a few weeks, although if it's sooner I am not going to complain!
Probably automated from their store/warehouse system. Although i can image there are already allot of boxes with some stuff in standing there i really do hope i get mine before december 20, i got 3 weeks off work
465 backers is a reasonable amount of orders to pack and ship on time. Fingers crossed. Now all we need is for the Mosaic Palette to be ready too.
I have 2 weeks off at Christmas as well, so fingers crossed for a new project/toy to play with 465 is certainly a lot of kit, I imagine they would be very pleased once units start shipping if only to get some space back!
I dunno need to hit it with a sledge hammer a few times. Dropped from the back of a moving truck. And probably thrown in the rain. That would really give you the "Quality care" from parcel carriers.
any good company does drop tests with the boxes they intend on shipping. we do it all the time at our facility.
If E3D wasn't associated with this project there might be reason to fear, I had never heard much about LittleBox before this KS. I lost my Zano too, and am strongly rethinking future Kickstarter pledges, but this printer is in the bag. E3D is great, I have a v6 and a v5, RichRap has a beta printer and has seen the facilities, the only question about this project is whether you will get yours in December or January. This is the closest to a sure thing that can come out of Kickstarter. Have a little faith, these are the good guys.
Yup we had nearly 2 metric tonnes of parts arrive yesterday! Motors are heavy. Should have a nice update for you all on progress soon.
I'm in batch 3. Bummer. I was really hoping to have this thing in time to print some parts for another project that has to be done in mid-January. Time to figure out plan B.
Strike! Batch 1, first third of it that is! Can't wait to get my hands on that machine! If not flashing my SD card and Rumba gets the thing out the door sooner, I'd happily accept that, can do all the software setup myself easily.
