Title: Free shipping week soon - other stuff
Post by: madbean on June 04, 2013, 07:26:32 AM
With the release of the new projects/re-stocks this month I will have a free shipping week, well just because. The boards/free shipping will start on about June 12th (an approximate date) and go for seven days. I'm announcing now so it is not a surprise.

Free shipping will apply to all domestic orders and international orders under $50. Int'l over $50 will be the standard charges listed on the project page.

I will have documentation up for the new projects later this week. I had to scale back on the releases due to the number of other projects now out of stock. The new releases will be the Kraken (Mutron Micro V), Sharkfin (Maestro Sample and Hold) and the Weener Wah II. The Peacekeeper and Sparklehorn are pushed back to the next batch of releases.

Project development will slow down for the next two months while my daughter is off from school. I just don't have a lot of time to spend in the workshop until August. Some of you may have noticed I've been kinda absent here for the last week or two, as well: seven year olds are quite demanding, ha ha. I do have a ton of stuff "on the verge", though. You can expect to see some of the vintage EHX stuff start popping up, plus a few of the "also in development" from the projects page and at least one or two I haven't mentioned anything about.

But, I will try to keep things exciting around here through other means, like the free shipping week and maybe adding one or two new "Extra Projects" on the forum pretty soon.

Yeah, I had no idea what this was until about 2 weeks ago... and now I desperately require it.

I will be traveling all summer long for my job so my wife and daughter pretty much own me on the weekends. So yeah... I can relate!  ;)

Lets see.  7 year old daughter who is probably the light of your life or pedals? Wise choice Bean. My son turns 21 this month and gets off work at 9 at night, I make sure all my building is done before he gets home. I still love spending time with him.

You know, my 7 year old really gets into my pedal projects.  He knows more about electronics than I did 6 months ago.  QUALITY FAMILY TIME!  (except his sister has no such interest)

Yeah, since the days started getting longer and it's nicer outside I've had much less time here too.  Plus to kids 10 and 2.

Is the sharkfin a take on the Maestro FSH?

My four year old will be done with school next week, but that also means my wife will be done with work through the summer so I might actually get more done.
