Paid with pleasure :)

I'll update the new kit BOM when I get a chance, if there are any changes needed. At the moment I have a teething baby to look after. Life is hard :(

If anyone backs out on a kit (yeah, I know, not likely), I'd be glad to take it off your hands.

I have one more kit available. It is on the store. There is only one. If multiple people try to buy it at the same time, the store has been know to get confused and sell more than one. If that happens the lower Order ID will get it and the other will be refunded. If you don't get it please don't complain that you already asked me if one came available to sell it to you. Dozens of people have asked that.

I am sure if I listed it on eBay I could get more money, but I don't want the price to go artificially high. please don't buy it and sell it on eBay, etc.

It is listed under the Laser section of the store.

All of the 2.x builder kits that are paid in full are shipped. If you paid and did not get a shipped notice please email me. Some payments were tricky to connect to the order. The remaining queue is here.

I just had a horrible feeling that I've forgotten something...

The single bearing V-wheels - were they included in the kit in the end? And if not, have the dual bearing ones been tested as a replacement? I only ordered six from Inventables, so I'm worried I'll have to do another order which with shipping to Australia is going to be pricey...

I too was wondering if there was any plan to offer the single bearing v-wheels or if I should come up with a solution using the double bearing style.

They aren't included - mine arrived. I'm going to use double-bearing wheels. If that results in the lens carriage being too high, I'll mount the spacers and eccentric nuts on the opposite side (top) of the plate and then use some shims on the bottom. I don't see a problem.

And here is a quote from someone on page 3 of this thread, explaining why he thinks double-bearing v wheels will be okay:

I think the lens carriage could stand to be a little bit taller. I had to shim mine up about 2-3 mm to get the beam in the center of the hole. I assume the makerslide V rails sit a little bit lower than the old glue on style.

Ah well, guess I should just suck it up and order more v-wheels then.
