Great news.  The anodizing company said I could ship the parts to them.  They will be going today or tomorrow.  Thank goodness this is moving again.  Again sorry for the delays but at least we are one step closer to getting done.

The timing should be about right when we get the parts back for the CFX to be out or close to out.

Great to hear an update.  Didn’t see my name updated on the list.  I bought a spot from another forum member a while back.  Just want to make sure it didn’t fall between the cracks.

Fixed that for you.  Sorry about that.  Things are much easier now that I am getting notifications again.

I'm wondering what the progress is on these bad boys? How's the anodizing going?

Now that CFX is ready I'm just wondering if we have an idea how long before we can start installs?

I am still pushing for them to be done this year.  The anodizing company has still not gotten to it but I hound him every week.

Once things settle down for me on the CFX I am going to do a proof of concept for the saber on one of the hilts that is already anodized.

Also good news is the activation cards or what ever you want to call the things in the box are done and I should have them next week.

Hi. I purchased a Sidious saber from the LDM website in May and I still haven't received it. I've sent an email and also a message via the contact form on the website but haven't had replies to either. Could someone here please let me know what's happened to my order? Thanks.

I did indeed get your email from 3 hours ago and have responded.  I didn't receive the other two emails for some reason.  Feel free to PM me here any time if I haven't responded via email, that likely means your email went to my SPAM folder accidentally.

Now that we are getting closer to the year's end and the CFX has been out for awhile, are there any updates on the run's progress?  Thanks!

Yes.  I spoke with MH yesterday so this is very current info.  These will all come with CFX.  As most of you know, we have had three anodizers pull out on us.  We want the perfect gloss black anodizing to make this the best replica ever made.  We (as of yesterday) have finally contracted with a reputable shop who is willing to take this (what is apparently a very small) job.  Once we get the parts back, MH Jango and I will get the installs finished BEFORE any other jobs we have in line.  We know everyone wants this run finished and believe me, we want it finished.  We truly appreciate everyone's patience.

Hi Everyone, it's been ages since I have been on here, hows this project coming along?

Will the new boards include Neo pixel, smooth swing and include the Plector labels LED blades?

I just spoke with MH.  The hilts were sent off to the Anodizer today and the deposit has been paid.  That was the hold-up.  We have inquired at 20+ anodizing companies and our job is always "too small" or "we'll fit it in when we can".  This should help us to move quickly once they come back (MH can add the timeframe that was promised to him). 

As to CFX, yes these will have CFX.  I am sure that They can be the pixel version instead of tri-cree if folks want, but a blade would not be included (although I'm sure we can make them available if folks want them).  I have not spoken to MH about this option, but I will do so and we'll iron that detail out with everyone once the hilts are anodized.

FYI, Jango will be assisting MH and I in the build process to expedite the orders as soon as the hilts are ready for install.
