looks like this project is dead... a little too ambitious finding 1000 people to buy a high priced puzzle sight unseen.

Should have charged half as much and made it from plastic. That would have generated a lot more sales.

Don't get me wrong. I really would like to see this project come to fruition, but, with backing coming as slowly as it is and no updates I'm not feeling very strongly that David really wants this to happen. :|

I couldn't agree more! I don't understand how so much work could be into making a prototype but so little for pitching the product.

He's probably bummed out the Kickstarter isn't taking off like many do. Truth is the majority don't "fly off the shelves"

Wow! Cool stuff though! They found a complete backer so that's why it's canceled and all who backed the project will still be able to purchase it at the reduced price!! I like this guy even more! :D
