All the sliders that were ordered bare are built. Our bolt supplier had a back order on 10mm bolts. We received a large order of bolts for all our products on Friday. Because we worked all weekend to get the sliders made we didn't dig into them until we were packing things up Sunday night and discovered it. Our supplier is expediting the bolts to us and they should still ship out this week.

With the lack of SEXC info, I'm about to pull the trigger on these.

I've been hearing that the initial purchase and the balance should be made as two transactions, is that true? I want to make sure I understand this right.

Both halfs are up on the website, I don't see a reason you couldn't add both to the cart and checkout if you wanted to.

If you wanted to put a deposit in now and pay the balance when they are done that is fine too.

I was hearing the 14th?

Did the bare metal sliders ship already? I want to say I'm curious but I'm really just excited and impatient lol. I'm just trying to guess when they'll get here. :smile:

Again, thank you to everyone who has purchased. We are hard at work cranking these out.

We took the links down yesterday. The final tally was 32 sliders. Whew! Between these, corners and a couple other projects we will keep busy all through March and April.

As quoted below the first 24-25 will be done as 1 batch with the material we currently have and the reset we will need to reload with more material and schedule going forward.

Thanks everyone,

Mac




We wanted to updated everyone on the progress on this Group Buy.

First of all let me say we are blown away by the response here. We already have more deposits down than we expected total orders - and the deposits are ~90% in.


We have been building already to keep on the timellines have have laid out. It's going to be a challenge but at this point we are still committed to what we have said. So in case you missed it let me reiterate.

Bare orders are expected to ship Monday March 2nd* Yes, the Monday following the close of the group buy. It does help that we are light on bare orders and heavy on PC'd orders.

PC'd orders we are taking to the powder coater on Saturday, Feb 28*. We typically see a 7-10 day turn around for powder coated items, however we do not typically send this many off at once and are unsure what that will do to that number. However, our powder coater is good and is equipped to handle large orders as he does OEM work for the RV industry. We wanted to put a warning out there but don't anticipate this timeline sliding too much. That puts on on schedule to ship all* powder coated orders on Monday, March 16.



*The asterisk above denotes the following. These statements apply to orders/deposits that have been made through the P&P website as of 11:59:59PM 2/16/15.

We purchased material for 25 sliders when the list was at ~9 members and expected to have a little bit left over. We currently have 25 deposits paid.

Any orders/deposits coming from now until the end of the group buy will be made in a second product run and will be delivered at a later time - ASAP but still TBD.



***Cliffs notes***
Expected ship dates for current deposits:

Bare - March 2
Powder coated - March 16


Again, we thank you all for the overwhelming response and are working diligently to stay on our original targets - including late nights and weekends.

Ok, to anyone who HAS NOT yet used the checkout system to let us know you would like the top tread plate option, we need you to post up and let us know. At this time we just need you to POST here and let us know. There is no requirement to pay the balance and for the tread plate yet if you do not wish.


Any of the 7 people who have already paid for this option do not need to post again.

This is especially important if you will be getting your sliders powder coated. This obviously needs to be added before we take them to powder. Bare orders is not as important as we can add it at any time before it ships.




This is the page for adding a top tread plate. It is not listed as an option on the slider pages.

Hey, sorry, didn't see this question over here. Tracking says the first wave should be showing up starting tomorrow - today depending on your time zone. Wednesday =)

We have several more that should be delivered today or tomorrow and a couple that have gone into areas where they have been delayed by local weather.

Still cranking out those in the 1st batch that are heading to powder.

We'll be working all weekend at the shop and hope to have some big updates for you guys afterwards.

I'd like to add the plate. I think you have my order details, if not PM me. Thanks.


just saw your payment for this come across the website. Thank you!


For anyone else looking to add this option: We were not able to add it as an option to the slider pages due to a limitation of the backend software. All you have to do is buy it from the site using this item:

http://p-p-engineering.myshopify.com/products/rock-slider-step-plate-all-gens-all-types


You can add it with your balance payment if you still owe that or you can buy it on its own.

****If you would like to add the step plate, and your sliders are going to get powder coated we need to know this ASAP!!! You do not need to buy the item or pay the balance until they are ready to ship but please let us know so we can add it before it goes to powder. Once it goes to powder it is TOO LATE to add this option! Post up here, PM us or email me @ mac@engineeringpp.com and let me know to add it to your build sheet****

thanks everyone

Don't let them tell you that.

They delayed mine for weather reasons yesterday. Yesterday was the warmest day yet, clear, sunny, and I actually went outside to work on the truck. Total BS on Fed Ex's part.

Today they tried to deliver, in a blizzard, if that makes any sense, and aborted.

Now it's tomorrow. Too bad no one will be home because I've been waiting two day for the package.

I don't like Fedex. :sad:

Did they get these to you yet?

We sent 14 to powder this weekend and are out of material.
We'll reload and schedule the rest ASAP.

Yeah. I have a bone pick to FedEx for leaving it in the snow covered driveway though. Good thing you guys wrap it tighter than a spider lol.


Great!

Should be lightly oiled so it doesn't rust too.

You'll want to degrease it before coating it or you might have adhesion issues.

If you got your deposit in for powder coated sliders BEFORE March 1 began we have your sliders finished, and powder coated. The only hold up right now is getting parts bags made and sliders packaged. We're taking a little time with the packaging due to illness. and these things look great so we are trying to make sure they are protected on their way to you.

Tracking numbers should start going out today/tonight for powder coated sliders.

Hey just wondered when the people who ordered thier sliders towards the end of the group buy will get them. I put my deposit in on February 23 and then paid the balance on February 27. Just excited to get them trying to figure out when they will get here, thanks
