Well, that was the best Black Friday sale I've never done.

I've been flat out shipping, packing and making kits solidly since I didn't do black Friday.

A few to go out tomorrow and I'm back up to date, sorry for any delays getting kits to you.

Now I've got to get kits in stock in time for not doing Jan sales. 🙃

Unfortunately, I've had to increase some of the prices a bit as the price of acrylic and especially solenoids have skyrocketed in the last few months.

The advantage of buying kits.

You own it.
You can repair it.
You can modify it in anyway you like.
There is NO DRM
There is NO "Cloud service" to fail in the future.
You learn by building it.
its 100x cheaper than the latest Phone.
It doesn't require updating, unless you want to.
