Hello Geekhack,
I am feeling quite awful at the minute and I need to apologise to some members on here because I need to get a bunch of stuff off my chest. I've had some peoples stuff for way too long.
Proc31 - Your board is done, I will post it v. soon, I've been working like a mad man and I keep being out and about longer than the post office is open, It's boxed and ready to go so I will ship it soon. I will cover your return postage and will refund the monies you sent me.
Epzy - I am honestly about half way through with your stuff, I expect to finish it soon - Thank you so much for being sound about it, but I think it's important you know - I genuinely feel awful that I haven't got it finished and back out to you yet. My schedule is starting to open up so I will crack on with it.
B7ad - Your stuff is about as far along as Epzy's, and likewise will get it sorted for you quite soon, and back out to you. I'm not going to take any money off you for doing these - but if you could still arrange your courier that would be great, I'll send you the address and a date for collection.
Bueller - your stuff has only just arrived, it's a fast job though so as soon as I've done above I will get those posted back to you.
Pasph - I've got all the stuff for your phantom, it arrived last week - so I'll get that fixed up for you when all of the above is done and shipped on to you.
JD40 Crew - I am working my way through the JD40's. I've read around the internet a bit and I realise some of you are disgruntled. I think it's really important you know that I don't get paid for building these keyboards, I'm not getting rich off the lack of the keyboard in your hands - and, if it means anything to you at all - I do genuinely feel really bad that you don't have your keyboards in your hands. The only reason I took on the project was because I love custom boards and I want people to have custom boards.
When all of the above is done - I'm not taking on any more work from anyone (well, except a few) and I will only work for [CTRL]ALT and any projects we do in the future - this means that hopefully future projects I will be able to crank out a lot faster.
I'm not a con man, I have no interest in keeping your stuff or doing a runner as I go a million keyboards of my own which my girlfriend is already pretty unhappy about. No one has suggested that could be the case, but I want to make it clear that I am going to finish and return everyones stuff. I'm also not getting rich off any of this, I don't even really cover my over heads I quite literally do this as I like people using my keyboards.
Hopefully in a few weeks I will back on a level and not be so far beyond. I'm a yes man and I've taken on too much stuff - you've all been very cool about it but it doesn't stop me feeling bad about it. And i promise I absolutely will get it finished and back to you.
I'm currently trying to get a new job, I've had a few interviews this week, so hopefully not working 50+ hours a week is something that is going to happen soon as well.
