Probably safe to consider this dead considering how Weaven and Lustro stopped having updates. :(
Why do you always have to be so negative. Chill out and see how this plays out.

It's good to be optimistic, but in his defense it's been playing out for 607 days. The current hope of the GB sits with someone in Asia who has come down with an illness, who has 2 other GB responsibilities that take precedence over the CF-LX, and he hasn't signed into GH for almost 2 months.  :rolleyes:

Came at basically the ****tiest time for this. Not that it's an excuse for trusting someone else to look for a waterjetting place for a few weeks (his line of work put him in close touch with lots of places, thought I could get a better deal for the buy, turned out to just be a lazy ******* who didn't care much to help or communicate), communication not being perfect between myself and BBS, and taking too long to ship the materials to foggy. If someone knows of any other reputable places in the area (unlikely but I'll take any suggestions), I'm all ears. It's just at a point where I obviously don't have a job right now and am out enough money that it's hard to keep shipping all of this around (already cost me $500+ just to get it to foggy, back will be around the same if not more with added packing and protection on the inside). If it's any consolation (not much I'm sure), this buy is getting done one way or the other no matter what I have to keep putting in, at this point it just isn't looking timely. It feels indescribably ****ty to have this hanging over my head at all times, especially now that there isn't much I can even do anymore.

Sorry guys.

Eh, I'd have stopped being so positive a while ago. nathan's been as optimistic and as helpful as someone could reasonably expect.

Best we can do now is contact pear_voz who is on the other side of the country--I don't think he's been handling the other GBs though. I hope foggyflute is getting better--sounds like things were pretty bad though.

Just shot him a pm, though since this was still in the production phase I'm not sure how much help he can offer. Hoping to be pleasantly surprised

Well you have done a lot already. I don't think you'd have to put yourself in danger money-wise for it. That would not be ideal.

No response from anyone. I'll send out another string of messages through whatever venues I can. This'll get done, it's really just riding on the recovery time of foggy or the responses of people he works with

Basically...

Just to be clear, I am not "sad" at you.  I'm just sad for the whole situation.  Seems like this kind of thing happens all too often.

Edit:  and I hope you're able to find a new job you enjoy soon, buddy.

I'm getting sending failures when I send emails now. I sent out a fresh round of PMs to everyone I've heard connected in anyway to foggy and I've sent a message to the Facebook page (although I'm not sure how many people are actually part of this operation or if anyone checks the page these days). I'll see if I can google and come up with some phone numbers I can call (and I'll keep my vietnamese friend nearby in case I run into a language barrier lol).

Looking at the timing of all this though, I have high hopes that everything or quite a bit of the work might be already done and the actual product just needs to be shipped, which obviously makes this whole thing an easier solve.

There's response starting up from "Triviumtek Supporter!" Perhaps that's the key?

Looks like Weaven is coming back to life, however requiring Originative's help to do so. I don't know if you'd want to run it yourself, hwood34, but it might be worth it to check with Triviumtek Supporter.

Whoops, totally forgot to give y'all a reply. TS can only handle the other two GBs right now and CFLX seems to be on the backburner basically until foggyflute returns. He said he hopes to give me an update soon. This was on the 10th, so expect something very soon hopefully.

Oh really? Well yep then that bodes well here. Now that Weaven is done, CF-LX should be moved off the back burner to production. I'll shoot them a message just to be sure.

Just got an email from foggyflute. He's back and we're all ready to get this thing going. Apparently I also bought like double the carbon fiber I needed so maybe I'll make some more cases in case anyone else wants them. Either that or if anyone here needs some sheets of carbon fiber you could probably buy em off

If anyone's interested in something like this but TKL just shoot me a PM. I won't be taking money upfront like a GB, but just seeing if I can get a head count to use up the rest of this carbon fiber

Is the CF in Asia or Murica?

I'd possibly be interested in a TKL in this style. What kind of PCB would be compatible though?

I'd probably just use JD's universal plate style since I already have a copy and that seems compatible with quite a bit

Does that include the TX87?

If you could do a TKL with the A87-spec (to fit PCB's like Leeku's, or GON NerD TKL if you request for one with a flipped USB port), I'd be interested too. :)

just waiting to get word back from JD and I'll look into everything

A number pad would be cool yea. That would either be afterwards or I'd have to get more cf before I started work on the TKLs since I only have 2.5ish sheets left. If enough people are interested (or maybe I'll just do it anyway) I could see about getting at least a proto of the case done to send back with the CFLX stuff. Though I don't want to hold up the process anymore so we'll see, unlikely though.
