Surveys...
over 8 years ago – Tue, Jun 21, 2016 at 08:04:18 PM

Many are complete.... some are not.

If you haven't received one..... let me know...

If you're holding off... don't. I'm going to make my numbers final at end of June for my shop records and order and if you're not on the finished (survey) list by that point... you're going to the end of the line... which means end of the year.

Right now we're ahead of schedule and may be looking at early delivery based on my estimates, but if you're one of the 40 or so who have not completed their surveys... I'd start to worry and get on it sooner than later.

I hate to have to be tough about this... but, you are holding up the line. :)

Ge the surveys done and turned in and we'll all get this done.

Thanks!

What and awesome campaign.

Thank you so much for your backing and support.

I've got surveys ready to go and they'll be going out shortly.

Any questions or needs just let me know. I'm slow some days but I always catch up.

 General schedule from this point.

1. 2 weeks or so for funding to come through from Kickstarter.

2. Surveys released to the wild in the next 24 hours

3. 14 backers need to fix their funding sources (you know who you are)

4. Production will begin later this summer, around August/September

5. Delivery of rewards will be towards the end of the year as planned.

Project is on-schedule and moving nicely.

Working on the Golden Spiral prototype over the next 2 weeks... then its picture time.

Can I please have pips instead of numbers?

No, no you can't.

I know that 's not the answer some of you want to hear... but I'm really not into pips. Like I'll go as far to say as I dislike them. So, no pips on these dice. I'm offering something a little different than what's available in both materials, and form. Function is exactly the same.

So then the question becomes, How can I tell the difference between my D12 dice? I mean, I'll have potentially four kinds that will look exactly the same...?

Here's what I've done to answer this question:

 The additional markings around the numbers will denote the type of die it represents... no guess work and easy to tell at a glance what you're rolling... 

I'll have the prototypes of these made up to confirm that my thoughts are correct that this will look great and be easy to read. 

So, no on the pips... but yes on the easy to use and read.

Should have them in hand in about a week.

The Golden Spiral Fibonacci will be headed out to a second shop for engraving and finishing.. I'll have some pics of its form at least this go round.

Thank for all your support!
