We got a shipment of chassis plates in that will help us start to catch up on Crack back orders. We've been packing this afternoon and the first of these should ship tomorrow, with more shipping as parts like more wood bases and more chassis plates continue to roll in. This current packing run should satisfy orders placed up to mid December. Of course we will continue packing everything we can just as soon as the parts arrive. Thanks so much for your support! It's keeping us hoppin'!

Tim,

The directions for the base are excellent.  I line the pieces up against the back of my kitchen counter to make them straight.  Then tape, like the instructions say.  It comes out very well, even.  It shouldn't be a problem.

Yup, you just tape them in a row with masking tape, put some wood glue on the inside corner surfaces and pull them together into a rectangle. From there you can finish or not, as you see fit. We just sand them a bit with 220 grit and put a satin finish water base clear coat on - super easy and looks nice.

Shawn was kitting parts all day, but I'm not sure which kits he worked on as I was out of the office. Eileen and I are going to see how much we can get done today and I will post an update to the delivery status in the afternoon.

Some more kits are shipping today. Eileen and I will be in here over the weekend catching up everything that we have parts for and getting them out Monday (or Tuesday, as Monday is a government holiday). Then we will be getting out more kits just as soon as the next wave of parts arrives.

Maybe you have an ETA on orders from late Dec, between Christmas and New Years?  My order was in on the 26th.
