Do you plan to buy one very advance 3D printer or several cheap ones?

Hello! Tipped off some Norwegian IT sites, but nothing (yet).
Found one here though:

It must be a bug in the counter. Call Kickstarter support. Call the police. Bring everyone...

Due to large overshoot, we can change to fancier magnets and thinner connection pads. This shaves some off the thickness.

Previously, the magnets were limiting factor, now the base pcb and casing wall thickness are limiting factors. Making the casing thinner is not possible and making the pcb thinner will increase the risk of making a bad connection.

New phone+base thickness: 11.5mm!


Also, managed to get a short term loan, so we can start ordering some custom parts and machinery. I've already ordered: pick&place machine, re-flow oven and solder stencil printer. This will speed up production a lot.

Delivery in April was very much on the safe side -better to be on that side- since I originally thought I'd do a month of marketing instead of hitting in 7 hours. So we can maybe/probably shave some weeks off.

Btw, you should advertise this in some form in your Kickstarter so this all doesn't go unnoticed
