Now to the serious stuff

Update #10 · May 18, 2012 · 13 comments

Dear Backers (all 138 of you!),

Seems like there is a decent chance that we will make it!

So now to some serious issues:

1. Color:

As Daniele Bernedetelli phrased it: "Please, do NOT do it RED!"

Well, Daniele, we have actually carefully chosen a claret-color similar to a Brunello, Amarone and Barolo! But we have also noted all the comments and input from various Backers! So: We have decided to change the color of the MinuteBot Base to BLACK! 

We hope that you will all like that decision!

We may choose to print a discrete MinuteBot logo on the side of the Base to make it a genuine MinuteBot product!

2. Configuration of Holes:

This is the old discussion of o-holes vs. +-holes. This is how the configuration looks like at the moment:

For symmetry reasons there are not a lot of +-holes around the center of the Base but we are still open for suggestions... All we promise is that the total amount of holes will be 630!

Still 70 hours to discuss those issues before we start the work with the plastic molding company!

And again: Thanks to all of you who made this discussion relevant!
