Here's an update for Lord of the Dungeon:

All boxes has been glued & assembled, the only thing remain to do is modify the cartridge shell so the PCB fit well

That's the point of the update, it took me about 20mins to modify one cartridge shell, put the PCB in, put the srews in place then apply the label

I've to make 50 of them, so 20mins X 50 shells = about 15 hours of works before shipping

OR:

I can send them without being modified, and you modify the cartridge shell yourself wich will take you 20mins
I'll post photos (guide) on how to do it (only a tab is needed to be remove)

If people don't mind, I'll ship them un-modified , otherwise contact me to tell me that you don't mind waiting but absolutely want the cartridge shell modified

Retroillucid, it should only take a couple of minutes each... pm sent.

[NIAD]

I don't mind waiting.

[Yurkie]

I'll assemble my own buddy. Spend time with your son.

[Tubular Gearhead]

You can ship mine the way it is- I have no problem modifying it myself...

[rpgcollector]

As long as there is a how to, I am fine with doing the work myself.

Quick Update


Thanks to 5-11under for his precious help, it took me about 5mins to make one using his method

So, these will be shipped assembled!

Yep! ... Because I'll need some for preparing shipping to be all ready for the release at the end of January

As you can see in this picture, everything is ready to go! .... just need to ship those Lord of the Dungeon orders first before the actual release

It would have gone from 5 minutes down to 0 minutes if I hadn't made a mistake on the original boards, so you can blame me and thank me... .

[King_Salamon]

Well whatever it was, I gave your original post a +1

Whereabouts in Ontario are you anyway?

Yeah, we should all blame you BECAUSE NOW, people won't have to spend hundred dollars for the LotD cartridge

I've just recently moved to a new place, packing stuff, and now unpacking stuff
The good news is pretty much everything is done by now, well, almost
We were not supposed to move rignt now but would had in June anyway, so we found this new place and the owner gave us a free month, so we jumped on it

I'm indeed start shipping tomorwow if I can bring back my packaging stuff (shipping boxes,bubble wrap etc..)
Worst case will be monday
