Two companies are involved in making the MakerSlide: an extruder (who extrude and anodize it) and a fabricator (who cut it and ship it to us). The fabricator say that the extruder are way behind with all their orders — some are delayed as much as eight weeks. They are catching up, but our MakerSlide order is still about four weeks in the future — and that’s just the extrusion, not the cutting.
The eShapeoko kits need MakerSlide too…
This will be winter cnc!
Yeah, I really hoped that changing to a more serious (and more expensive) supplier would solve all the problems I had with the old one. The quality is much better, and they are able to extrude the profile as designed (no open core hole) and in the correct, tougher alloy, but delivery still takes longer than expected, with surprises like this. Not much I can do, except order it even earlier next time.
I’ll wait, you can add me to your list 🙂
