Yea!  Glad to hear you're getting back on track after the drowning you took recently!  Looking forward to getting my kits and rebuilding my paint area.

thanks! We're certainly trying!

 

All the orders are tagged out and just needed the trays to be out of prototype stage. I am very happy with them. I think they are finally where they need to be to call them good.

They are quite popular!

We had discussed sending orders out and sending them when they're done. I opted to hold until everything was done right.

Its not much of an excuse to take so long, but better is usually a good reason if you had to make one.

 

More things coming! more posts as they happen!

Reaper followers, you are the first to get this info!

We have finished calculating all of the costs to ship internationally, now limited to only 4 countries: Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand.

 

I am not going to lie, it is QUITE expensive to do this. We calculated every size combination we could to get the lowest rates possible. The product is robust (read heavy) and that's a big deal in shipping.

 

I am going to post the data here so you can all take a gander, but it has NOT been added to the kickstarter yet. Our PR guru Crystal is VERY  preggers and due at any moment. so I'm hoping she has the time to do this pre baby., otherwise, i'll do it myself, it'll just be sloppy! :D

 

It was requested, screamed for, and begged for, we DO listen. things DO happen. Thank you all for your patience again! (oh yea we cleared 40% funded)

All amounts shown in US Dollar (USD) Yes, its that much. a Kraken weighs 50 lbs. takes two large boxes to ship. I have exactly ZERO room to wiggle on international shipping.

As a heads up, I rounded each amount up to the nearest dollar. Actual billing will be reflected on the orders as we make them.

There are some new unlocks, as well as a new tier for the paint trays!

Spread the word!

 

Thank you all!

Ah, the small paint tray would be exactly the size I'd need, several of them actually.

 

But that one *doesn't* ship to Canada?!

Yes, it will. We just need to update the reward tier for shipping. I'm working on that now actually!

So are the new high capacity upgrades available now?  Just curious what the basic rack with the high capacity shelves will run.

We have them prototyped. We need to lay a few finishing touches on them before I say they're totally done.

 

They hold 100 dropper bottles of Reaper fully optimized. I can't lay out a price yet, but i will have one soon.

Thanks for adding the paint tray as a pledge level Tim. I've been wanting to support the kickstarter but didn't have any room left on my desk after what I got from Reapercon. But the paint tray I can hang on the wall.

[Rimmy]

Quite literally my pleasure. I love those things. I hung eight of them on my wall! I never considered them being so popular, but I'm happy they are!

I don't know how you could make the wall rack high capacity?  The holes look as close together as you'd want them and still be strong enough.

[Rimmy]

soooo..... like this?

The bottom one is a tray with a free standing base. (we have narrow and wide size)
The middle is a double tray. holds 99 dropper bottles.

the one in the back we're calling the "mega". currently holds 198 bottles, but will very likely get made smaller due to shipping constraints.

Pricing is straight forward. $30 for the tray, $40 for the free standing unit (comes with both feet for options), $60 for the double tray and $120 for the mega.

I have some options for stands for the mega and double for free standing as well.

I told you all, I have stuff in the wings I haven't released yet. just gotta find the time! :D

Extra points for being able to say "I have 99 paints, but a _____ ain't one!"
