Nice work Raeli!!! I hope it plays as good for you as it looks!
Ok guys “Good to go!” means I have all your info and I’m currently building your case. I still need to some Boxes and packing supplies since I ended paying way too much for them last time. I’ll contact you when it’s time to pay I just want to have an accurate shipping cost and to keep prices down I’ll be using FedEx Home Delivery as my default unless you want to speed things up. Here’s a little info about the case and shipping if you want to price it out I’m using FedEX the box weight is about 5lbs the dimensions are 18x12x8 and my area code is 92649. This should give you and good Idea of what the shipping cost would be if you want to add it up your self.
Fundando, mekawendie, etownnipples, valkyrie23 Check your emails. I have a few more being finished and or drying at the shop and I’ll start a new batch next weekend. International shipping is expensive so be prepared if you live outside the US.
Well because I ended up painting one of my blanks since it had a little blemish in the wood so I couldn’t sell it as a blank. He was next up for the painted box so he got it. You should be up very soon. Thanks for being patient while I try and keep up. I’ve got a few more sticks in the shop I need to do a little more work to so I’ll be contacting the people I had to skip asap. BTW my list is in no true order really just a guideline for what I need to build

so voltech i will take the ground shipment. thanks
Starting a new build mostly Poplar painted and blank cases with a few Hardwood cases thrown in. I ran out of Maple since a lot of it I couldn’t use All cases will have the 4 button hole pattern on the face panel plus the NAUSB hole pre-drilled. My first priority is to take care of the people on my waiting list and many of you are waiting for Maple Hardwood blanks. Problem is I don’t have any Maple Hardwood left until I restock but money is tight right now. Let me know if you are willing to take a Poplar blank or painted instead or just wait until I get some more.
Okay, as a consumer I do have a few ideas for potential improvements in the future.
Put some kind of insert in the wooden blocks the bottom plexi screws into, because sometimes my screws fall out and I’ve only opened it like, ten or so times.
Anyway, I’ll probably be getting a new bottom from you soon, and if you produce a wider/thinner case, I’d be all over that too. My Voltech is just too good, dude. Too good.
raeli heres a quick fix for that problem, Take a wooden tooth pick dip it in some glue. stick the toothpick in the loose hole and break it off or cut it level. Now your screw will hold down nice and tight. Its an old carpenters trick
