I ordered around a half hour in, and I didn't get an email today, I have been So anxious to get it and I just want it to come
just be patient and focus on doing your current events for now. I had actually forgotten about it when I got the email, and I was like what the heck is shipping lolI ordered around a half hour in, and I didn't get an email today, I have been So anxious to get it and I just want it to come

Oh. Oofclock is my main event lol
I'm your 1st subscriber by the way.I got the clock today! I made a quick unboxing and initial impressions.Let me know if you guys have any questions!
for me it has been really fat, I normally average 7.5 and I have been getting all sub 7 averagesHere is my review.
The pins feel nice, and I love the fact that they are internal magnets, not external. The 3d printed casing is very nice and keeps it from falling over. The clear casing is a lot better than the stock lingao, but does flex a bit. Now for the downsides, its very slow, I've been breaking it in all day and it hasn't gotten much faster, I've been getting 9's and 10's when I average 4-5, also it is hard to get apart, you need to use a 3mm metal rod to hammer the pins out, but to be fair this is much easier than opening a stock lingao. This may not be worth $75, but with all of the work and research Chris has been/is currently doing to the puzzle, I think thats where the price comes from.
Do you think it needs more breaking in, or is that just how it is?Here is my review.

Do you think I could take the main housing out of the 3D printed shell and acrylic, and put it in the clear shell of a normal clock?after taking apart mine, here is what I found. The engineering Chris did to the pins is awesome! No glue anywhere, everything is held in place with magnets and slots in pieces so no magnets falling off. Taking it apart was difficult, and one of the outer shells was broken in the process, but this isn't a big deal for me because I have a 3d printer and know how to use CAD, so I will just remake them, but not everyone can do that, I'll probably redesign them to make it easier to take apart in the future. It was lubed, so a bit more break in would have sped it up.
I'm going to edit in some pics in a sec.
I’d imagine the next batch got delayed. They said they had a bunch of parts coming from China, but then the Covid-19 outbreak became an issue.Are there any updates on this clock? I'd still really like one but...
