Three sets of screens shipping out this week.
about 6 years ago – Mon, Jan 22, 2018 at 12:00:38 AM

One is boxed up going out in the mail tomorrow and two are drying and will be boxed up tomorrow and sent out later in the day.

Who's the lucky backers?

I'll leave it to them to reply back to the campaign what they got and what they think.

More screens coming.

Just FYI here's what we're seeing for time it takes to complete one set of these GM screens.

Wood prep - 2 hours for 4 panels
Machine time - 4 hours for 4 panels
Sanding time - 1 hour for 4 panels
Hand-Sanding - 30 minutes for 4 panels
Magnet Install - 2-3 hours for 4 panels
Finish work  - 2-3 hours 
Engraving - 30 minutes/panel
Packaging and shipping 1 hour per set.

That's a total of: 12-15 hours or so each set. When nothing goes wrong. 
These are by far the most labor intensive item we make right now and due to the size of the panels we've had to literally invent new processes to prevent damage and keep the wood ready for next step. We're getting pretty good, but all this time we've been working on this process and pieces. 

And that's for a standard set in easy to work with Pine.

Thanks again for your patience.
