Falling behind schedule

1/11/2014

I am disappointed. I had planned everything so carefully as to not let this day happen, but sadly, it has. I am behind schedule.

It has been 12 weeks since the successful funding of PopPet. 12 weeks in I wanted to be beginning to package the rewards, but sadly, this is not the case.

I have received all other parts needed for PopPet except for one large order. This large order includes all the assembly hardware, the Mini Drivers and the motors. I've yet to receive this order as it has not yet been sent. 

There was a major delay in the fulfillment of the motors, the supplier I am using to get this order had a falling out with the manufacturer of their motors and as a result, are having them made by a new manufacturer. This means going through the whole prototype phase for them to make sure this new manufacturer is making the motors exactly the same.

As you can imagine, this is taking sometime, it has been delayed by 2 weeks already. But other than that, all the other parts are good to go.

In other news. I have been internet quiet for sometime now as I have been moving house. What does this mean to you? Well, with the added benefit of more room, I was able to purchase a small garden shed. This garden shed will act as the central hub of PopPet operations, meaning I can work at any time during the day or night and not disturb other family members. Having this dedicated work space will allow me to pack PopPet's much faster and more effectively. It will arrive on the 10th of this month at which point I will move all my gear into it and make a video update of the setup.

That is all for now. I will keep you all updated as things progress. Expect a short update notifying you of when the big order has been sent and another when it has arrived. Again, I apologize for this delay and I will make it up to you all in someway.

Regards,
Jaidyn
