edit2 may as well use this place for the big update
Big Announcement Time
-GB date is set New Years(Jan 1st, time is to be decided on discord later on)
-GB Setup
-hosted through google form, with hand invoicing after the gb closes
-Shipping will be handled by extra invoices since that way i can more accurately charge everyone
-1st pcb+plate is 40
-extra pcbs 40(limit of 2 extras)
-extra plates are 10usd for any of the layouts w/ no number limits(split space, wkl or 7u sym)
-checkbox for Campsite Full PC plates(hopefully won't get invoiced until after confirmation of getting a campsite spot but that will be 40usd)
-3dp cases are gonna be hard limited to 25
-40 for foam, standoffs, screws, bumpons and one of the colors bought out (colors are atomic ruby red, reflow rpetg coral, nautical blue and mint, and overture clear, esun gray)
-The hot topic:Campsite plates
-I’ll host a small ic/gb in the gb form as this way I can get walletburner to cut PC full plates for us given we have the numbers(this is also means we get much cleaner plates since they
aren’t universal so everyone thank wb for giving us this option)
-Do note that this will be committal if you make it into campsite gb
-Plan is to invoice around the same time as campsite
-I need 10 people or at the very least 9 orders and i'll try and buy out if need be
-I’d hate for someone to be left with a useless plate so that's why I am doing stuff the way I am
-I still need to work out the logistics with wb since other than the getting 10 orders onboard I haven’t gotten much more detail
-Rev 3 protos should get here by next week(23rd or so) and they should just be flash and play since there isn't really anything changed from rev2 sans the necessary changes.
-Given that we have more than 75 people following the ic and more than that in boards sold because of double/triple dipping, I’m expecting there are going to be people that don’t make it in. And that is who this announcement is for, Hopefully I can keep a close timeline to campsite for shipping bare pcbs and then i'll do the case orders as I get them done now that I have my printer pretty much set up for back to back prints in my room hopefully that doesn't add the 30 day offset to those orders. But anyways back to Round 2 talks, if everything goes according to plan(knock on wood) and I am finished by the time campsite is done or about to ship. That’s when I’ll host a round 2 with fr4 campsite plates and extra pcbs
Tldr if i keep a timeline close to campsite and plate files are available i'll run round 2 with fr4 campsite plates and extra pcbs otherwise the timeline for all this is hopefully to have everything finished by the time campsite is starting to ship or a bit earlier with 3dp cases however longer to print
Last but not least the P3D collab you weren’t expecting(at least not like this)
-He will be making GetawayVan specific pages so it's easy to get a top mount case with the best van layout(plates will only be the materials he cuts for top mount since i don't want to
deal with yet another fr4 setup).
-The case will be linked in the GB form so go give him money when the time comes.
-There have been talks of blockered cases for the specific layouts but that still hasn’t solidified just yet so maybe look out for that.
-Side note but he does have the squids file so maybe just maybe he’ll have the etch option at an additional cost for his acrylic panels.
Best of luck to those that try to get in when the time comes and once again the best way to not miss out on the GB is to follow the project in the 40s discord discord.gg/40percent and get the GetawayVan role ?rank GetawayVan in Bot Shenanigans. Besides that I guess filling out the ic form 2 to get into the mail list but that won't be as high a priority but still higher than gb gh post lol.
