I'm just curious RJ, what kind of look did you get when you walked into the post office and said, "Hi, I'd like to have five hundred and twenty nine shipping boxes please". Like I said, I'm just curious?

I didn't, I ordered 150 online and the nice mail man dropped them at my door.  ;D

Now if only filling them could be as easy!

Due to a equipment breakdown the heatsinks did not get done. They did get a handful done before it broke. They are suppose to be finished monday but we have to drive an hour and half each way to pick them up.

We will pack up what we can this weekend to speed things along.

Heres what 529 sorted kits look like. before they go into the usps boxes.

Well a small shipment went out today. I post a picture of the load. Just a small part of them but we should get the rest out next Monday.  Do not send me pm's asking if you were one of the ones that shipped. If you were, you will know in a couple of days.

Thank you both for all your hard work.  Look forward to my first build.

Question: were the build manuals/videos updated or can we still use the previous version 4 manuals/videos?

Thanks,

EJ
