I feel the apprentice who has been sent to the store for a āLongWeightā
Greetings,
Can anyone tell me when 25432 might be shipped?
Thanks,
Gary
Dang, all you guys are so impatient! 6-8 weeks means 6-8 weeks! Haha!
Chris, Andy and team, keep up the great work!
Greetings,
If youāre referring to post, I donāt have a problem with 6 to 8 weeks. I have seen orders 39 to 60 with very little change in 4 weeks. Iām order #104 so I was just seeing if that backed every order up. Didnāt know if the hold up was on every mill they made or just specific models, so I asked.
Hope that helps.
Gary
Didnāt intend to take shots my man!
I am patiently waiting for my order as well!
In the meantime, I bought a $200 3018 CNC and am spending time learning on it. I recommend anyone else with the CNC āitchā to do the same!
I wanted to add this into the mix new dust shoes for all pending orders that had previously purchased a shoe!
Also, v-wheels are almost here!
I appreciate the offer of a dust shoe for all pending orders, but what if you ordered one as part of the order?
Asking for a friend.
I mightāve used confusing language. If youād previously ordered the existing dust shoe design alongside your LongMill, weāll be auto-upgrading all old dust shoes to new dust shoes.
If you hadnāt purchased a dust shoe with your machine, thereās still time to purchase one before your order ships and for the next week the new dust shoe design is on sale on the store
Much clearer, thank you
What is the expected delivery on #25348. I understand the delay because of part issues, but has production halted because of one part or are we just not seeing any updates on the list?
Thanks
Hi Abraham, the reason there are orders stating waiting on v-wheels is because these are 4-week lead time orders that we want to ship out ASAP.
Past this (which includes your machine) is a 6-week lead time which puts it at this Thursday the 13th. Weāre taking things step-by-step for now so weāll send out more update info once we receive the wheels and have sent out the 4-week lead time machines
Thanks for the update
Awesome! Thank yoU!!!
When it gets to my order it will be held pending parts for the new improved dust shoe lol.
Iām just joking. Looking forward to it.
Fingers crossed they are within spec!
@Chris and Andy you rocks thank you for all updates you give to us. Yes Iām waiting my LongMill. But with all the care you take, our CNCs are going to be perfect
Thank you again. You have to be proud of you and your business.
Order 25341
Is there a reason why there have been no order numbers added since 25847? Are you waiting to clear up the wheel issue before you resume? Just curious how later orders should check on progress.
Thanks!
Hi everyone, hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.
If you want to read a longer more broad production update and my saga with the v-wheels you can check out my blog post here: https://sienci.com/2020/08/11/the-epic-saga-of-the-v-wheels/
So it turns out that the tracking info for the Fedex on the v-wheels was wrong and the v-wheels that I had ordered last week actually came in at the end of the day yesterday instead of the Wednesday it was saying it would be.
The bad news is that these wheels have the same problem as we had in the last batch. I have contacted the manufacturer and they are working on making new v-wheels to the correct spec.
I have ordered 600 wheels last night (or 50 machines worth of machines) directly from Openbuilds which are expected to come tomorrow. We will use these wheels to ship machines and keep ordering them from there until our regular manufacturers can sort out the quality issue on their end. I also am working with several other manufacturers to manufacture v-wheels as well to prevent any future delays with this part.
Just updated list with all new orders Rob
