Hi All, quick update. I have received the parts back from bead blasting and am proceeding with packing and preparing for shipment.
A few notes on the parts received:
1) Out of the 50 cases ordered, I have identified 10 that I find have unacceptable machining defects from the manufacturer. These include sizeable chips in the perimeter of the case, cracked bottom, and chipped internal partitions. I have a note out to the machine shop and will await their direction for either replacing or refunding these defective parts.
2) Of the 40 that are in good shape, I will begin shipping these out this week. I will go by invoice order for shipping.
3) If you are in the tail end of the invoices (40-50), we will have to sit tight and wait to hear back from the manufacturer.
4) There is some slight variation in the thread tolerances on the nylon thumb screws. If you receive a case with a tight thumb screw, it will loosen over time with a bit of use. Some of the later cases may ship with an alternative steel threaded bolt (plastic head).
I appreciate everyone's continued support. If you have any questions feel free to contact me directly on Discord or Slack. More to follow
