Re: Mercury Release

I left her an email on Saturday and she responded to it very early this morning. The subject was the mercury but not about the shipping. Reading between the lines, it sounds as if the maze discs have been anodized and the serial numbers engraved.

It sounded like she was pretty busy because the reply's grammar was quite a bit worse than usual. Also she said she would send a second email in the afternoon which didn't happen. That isn't the way she usually is. I'd like to think she was busy tring to make good on shipping the mercuries and let the follow up email slide.

Still disappointed not to get a shipping notice today, but I think it'll be soon.

Estimated? By the end of this month.

Reality? Count the number of fingers on your left hand, toss a coin, roll a dice, look for a marble, throw a frisby, and think of a date. It is probably sometime in the future predicted by the subtle vibrations in the atmosphere on a rainy day in some other country.

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the delay in getting an update to you all, its been a bit hectic here and I have been trying to help Chris as much as possible. He’s having a bit of a nightmare with the vexing drawbars as he decided to put a drill through his finger yesterday!! :shock: Anyway as requested, below are some pictures of the first 20 puzzles to be sent today. Unfortunately we were unable to get them out yesterday as we ran out of time and I apologize for this. Chris is working on the final job today, drawbars, which was disrupted yesterday and once I get the go-ahead from Chris I can send out the tracking details, with the international puzzles being sent first and the UK following on.

Up until now 280hrs have been invested in these first 20 puzzles alone, however this will be reduced for the next batch as Chris now has the skills and working knowledge to make the puzzles in a faster time.

Sophie

How sexy do they look? :D :D :D :D

Sorry to hear Chris has been sticking his finger in places it doesn't below!!!

The more I look at them R2's the more memorising they become. They have a very hypnotic look about them.... mostly to men I think! ;) :)

Ruthless guys! I'm surprised you aren't all asking for the puzzle Chris was working on when he drilled into his hand because that puzzle caused his blood to be spilled!

Also.

Shipping Notice Received.
