Latest Updates from Our Project:

Ready to ship (a little late)!
almost 6 years ago – Thu, Jun 07, 2018 at 01:01:05 PM

Earlybird shipments are going out in a week!

Hey everybody!  It's been a while since my last update, so here's what's going on:

First and foremost, I want to thank all the earlybird backers for their patience. I was hoping to get all of the earlybird shipments out in May, and (spoiler alert!) it is definitely June right now.  BUT, I'm going to start shipping earlybird packages in about a week.  Things are a little bit late just because this is my first kickstarter campaign, and there were a few speed-bumps I didn't anticipate. As a small token of my appreciation, all earlybirds are going to receive all four stickers.  This isn't much, but I hope it shows how much I appreciate everybody's patience and support! 

Second, non-earlybird rewards are still on track!  Those will start shipping this month and carry on during July.  

Third, because earlybird shipments are about to leave the station, I am going to lock down all addresses on BackerKit in two days.  Please go back and double check that it is correct.  If your address changes after I lock it down, but before I ship your package, please just send me a message with your name and new address, and I'll get it taken care of!  

Next, I'm extremely happy with how these towers and trays are turning out!  These are WAY better than the prototype towers & trays you've seen in my pictures.  It's amazing what you can do with the proper tools!  That's all thanks to you folks, and this kickstarter campaign.  I was able to afford all the right machines and an incredible work space!  This is a dream come true!  I've also managed to add a little bit of branding to the towers, which I think really turns the quality up a notch.  Here's a picture of a walnut tower all done and ready to go!

 Last, but not least, stickers have arrived!  These are super nice, and were made by a local printer.  These are weather resistant and will stick to water bottles, cars, and just about anything else.  The printer even said that they're "probably top-rack dishwasher safe" so I hope you guys enjoy them!  

Stick 'em on everything!

That's all for this update!  As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!  Thank you all for your patience, your support, and most of all, your enthusiasm! I can't wait to see pictures of these towers & trays in action!

Survey Deadline is Sunday May 13th!
almost 6 years ago – Wed, May 09, 2018 at 03:53:40 PM

If you haven't filled out your survey, go do it right now!

Sorry I've been a bit quiet lately, but rest assured- I'm hard at work getting everything set up to make and ship your goods!  I'm almost completely settled in the new shop, I've got all my new machines, and I'm starting to build up materials. Everything is right on target! 

Anyway, down to business: 

The last day to make final updates to your order is Sunday, May 13 (head's up, this is also Mother's Day- call your moms!)  Right now is the best time to finalize your decisions, double check your shipping info, and select any add-ons or additional items!

After the 13th, I will lock your reward selections and charge cards for add-on item purchases and pre-orders. You can update your shipping address up until I lock those down too.

So, if you haven’t answered your survey yet, you still have time!  However, if you miss this deadline, you can still fill out the survey later. I'll still get your info, and you'll still get your rewards, BUT your shipment might be a bit delayed!

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on my BackerKit project page at https://dryadtower.backerkit.com.

THANK YOU!

Thank you all again for being so responsive to answering the BackerKit survey!  Only a few of you still need to fill it out!  This really helps me keep track of everything, and stay on target for shipping! 

Thanks everyone for your support!
