Hey everyone. I have prototypes. Badges are ready for production. The badgemaker thought it might be cool to alter my design a "little" just to play with things. So, he sent me a badge from my design, and then the other one with an altered finish. Basically it is a black chrome look. Hopefully the pictures will show it well enough you get a good idea. So here is the deal, I am positing pics of both. I can mix my order as long as there are at least 10 of each design. So, if there are not at least 10 of you that want the "Stealth" version, then we will just stick with the original design. So try to let me know in the next couple of days as I want to get things finished up with this and all of your badges in the mail. If you paid me by check, I have not cashed it yet, but will be doing so this week. My apologies, but my schedule has been ludicrous last few months.

Thanks

I will take my 2 badges with the black centers,original design
Thanks
Rich

I ordered two - I'll take one of each.

If enough interest, split my order - 1 of each.

thanks for the hard work Shane.

Can't remember if I ordered 2, I think so. If I did then I'll take one of each. If I ordered only 1 then I'll stick to the original, thank you Shane

Shane,
I like the black center better for the one I bought.
Thanks,
Jeff

Just a quick update. My guy has been out of country due to family illness/death. Then the volcano kind of messed up his return. He just got back in last night and our final order will go in today. So, it should be about 2-3 weeks and I will have the badges in hand - I hope. I ordered 40 of the original styled badges and 10 of the "black chrome". Just wanted to let everyone know what was going on with it. Sorry for the delay. The guy had two very quick back to back deaths and serious illnesses in the family.

If there are any spares, count me in for an original design badge...been waiting for these for a while...if available you can PM me paypal info for US delivery..

Thanks,
Gregg S.

sounds good. Shoot me an email at shane@scwdp.com. I think I'll have about 10-15 badges left after orders are filled.

any black chrome versions left? if so i'll take one.

Shoot me an email nineball. I should have a few black chrome left.

Shane any update on our badges?

I can only tell you that I hope to have them this week or next. Next week will be 3 weeks since they started production on them. I am really sorry it has taken a lot longer than originally anticipated. I think I explained earlier what the hangups were, but still hate that it extended things out this far.

They are coming though... I promise.

First off, thank you for everyone's patience. I am happy to report that the badges are done and are in route. I should have them around the middle of this next week. I will try to get them all sent out to you by Saturday if not sooner.

Sweet! Just in time for father's day!

Shane,

Contact me for any ? or details.

Thanks,

One less needed
 

I'm in for one, please email me with your needs. I just have a hard time understanding or navigating SCWDP website.

Any update?

Based on the last conversation, I hope to have them tomorrow or Wednesday. Will try to get them all mailed out pronto.

Please bear with me if you have tried to email me as I have a problem with my email right now due to a domain transfer that is in progress. IUf any of you need to reach me, just PM, or email me at vanweys@charter.net and make sure it says ATTN SHANE in the subj.

Thanks

I hate to say anything for fear of jinxing myself, but...

I just heard from the manufacturer, and the badges with all of their parts have been shipped to me. I should have them tomorrow or Friday. Assuming this holds true, I will do my best to get the badges on their way to you who have purchased them on Saturday. I am really sorry this has taken so long. It was stuff beyond my control, but I hate that things kept getting pushed out like they did. I hope you will all have your SCWDP badges sometime next week.

If you have contacted me about buying a badge and did so after the initial order, please send me an email to shane@scwdp.com and let me know again that you want to purchase a badge, and which style you want. I will try to weed back through everything, but I just want to make sure I do not miss you if you have contacted me already.

Thanks, Shane

ya right.... hope you are having a good time on your free vacation to the islands!

dang...

Shane, You doing a great job, don't sweat it. It's not like were all waiting for a part to keep our car running. Keep plugging away!

Hey Shane, I never did received an invoice for the two I sent payment for via Pay Pal way back when... Would you resend the invoices with the badges? I need it for my records.

Great to hear we have some movement on these!

Great expectations :)

Thanks!!

I can honestly say that I have been waiting since February 2009 for these badges. Can't believe the time has come!! Hooray!

OK guys, good news, bad news, good news...

Good news: badges are in my possession!

Bad news: I have not had enough time off of work the last 10 days but to catch a few winks of sleep.

Good news: I am off for the next 4 days and so barring any disasters, emergencies, etc., I should have your badges in the mail tomorrow.

Shane

I'd be great to see the badges, maybe with a SCWDP sticker or two thrown in for the time spent marinating?

thanks for the update

I hear you. If I can get the decals from the other party, I will be happy to do so. I have no decals in my possession unfortunately.

All badges that have been paid for are in the USPS system. I have also sent out emails and PM's to those that had come in later and wanted to order a badge. I still have a few of the black chrome and maybe a couple of the original polished look left.

Thanks everyone for your patience in this. This will probably be the last time I do it like this. I had too many things happen beyond my control and I hated pushing the delivery date out like I had to. If we do it again sometime for future Plotters, I will just have them made and sell them once I have them in my grease-stained hands. I hope you all enjoy the badges. I am sure they are good for a few HP's! ;-)

Shane, glad to hear. I don't think that just anyone would have had the perseverance to get this done. I'm sure we will all be happy and they will look great.
Now I'm really waiting.

Got Mine!
 

Shane, got mine yesterday, well worth the wait, thanks for the effort.
Rich

Got mine yesterday.
They look great!

THANKS SHANE.

Best,
Grady

muuuuuuuuuuuhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa

Yep, got mine yesterday as well...

Nicely packaged too.

Quick question on the finish: I have the standard/original badge and on the face of the glossy black center background you can see what looks like color sanding marks? The face is pretty close to glossy/shiny looking, but looking at a side angle you can really see these scuffs over the entire face of the badge where it looks like who ever did the final polishing missed this ...

If you've ever cut and polished paint, it looks like the semi-glossy finish after the 1st pass with compound. The material is glossy but the finish is almost matte with sanding scratches on the side angle..

Anyone else have/see this? Is this how it's supposed to be?

I'll try to take a picture ASAP and post it up for review

Not trying to be a PIA, I really appreciate the monumental effort in getting these made, I just want to be sure we're representing the Plot!

Thanks Shane!

When I saw "bad news" I was expecting it to be that Carrera was mispelled again
