Behold, factory photos. Color accuracy is not ideal etc. Films will most likely arrive at Kin this week.

Gonna start preparing packaging on my end now.

Switch films have arrived and been sorted by Kin and were sent off with EMS to me a few hours ago.

I have ordered 200 cardboard boxes (255mm x 190mm x 20mm) for shipping and will be preparing those now, so adding addresses and value declaration for those outside EU. Once the films have arrived and been sorted into the boxes, I will purchase the postage and slap that on.

Not by me. But if this all goes smooth enough I'll consider doing another round as I've gotten a lot of questions if I have extras left to purchase.

funderburker · « **Reply #118 on:** Sat, 06 January 2018, 13:28:02 »

It's been the holiday season and I've skimmed over the thread. Has anyone already received their films or are you just sorting through them?

No rush, just got lost in translation so to say.

done sorting most orders. top right stack is German orders (17) that went out today, I'll be emailing tracking shortly. top left stack is rest of EU orders (21), I'll be purchasing postage online now and put them on the boxes tonight and drop those off tomorrow. bottom is all USA orders (61) which I will put customs declarations on tomorrow and then drop them off the day after I hope. after that there are 25 orders remaining that are the rest of the world (non EU and non USA)

What's the biggest difference they make in cherry switches? Do they change wobble and sound?

Shouldn't change sound, but they fix housing wobble. Some cherry switches have imperceptible wobble as it is, but when you open them up, you inevitably stretch out the housings and introduce a little wobble, which these should fix.

"Extensive" guide?
I am sorry, but I will need a technical documentation created by the Technical Architect with input from the Project Manager and approved by the Program Manager.

Oblotzky · « **Reply #144 on:** Fri, 19 January 2018, 12:37:09 »

Nice seeing orders already arrive!

I finished sending out all 125 orders now. Monday was German orders, Tuesday all other EU countries, Wednesday was USA and today (Friday) was rest of the world. I haven't sent out any tracking numbers by email yet because I was lazy and prioritized sending out the stuff, but I still intend to do that tonight or so. If you received your films already then just ignore that mail. Have fun everyone!

Also please don't PM me for extras. I do have a couple from each color as backups for if someone's order get lost or so, but should I put them up for sale I'll announce it here. Although I'll most likely be selling them to friends on Slack or so (read: preferential treatment). I'll have to figure out for myself now if I want to run another GB, if I chose to do so I will announce it here. For the time being this thread will stay open until all units are received by participants.

Thank you for the tracking number.

Do not worry regarding the mail typo. When I used to work at IBM, I once sent a mail to the Europe upper management which I ended in "Kind Retards" instead of "kind regards"
