NEW Equipment- aligned edges/faces- theyre here

palmimports · #1 (**permalink**) 04-10-2008, 09:26 AM

Within 2 months we will add specialized equipment for aligned edges/faces.

What this means is: it will no longer cost an arm and a leg for aligned edges/faces--

WHile there will be a SLIGHT increase in cost for requesting aligned edges/faces- we are determined to make this feature, in time, NO MORE expensive as adding text on edge to a chip- currently .05 per chip.

Once the new equipment is operational we will do Beta Testing here on CHiptalk- so if youve been waiting for your ceramic chips AND aligned edges/faces AND didnt want to sell your sole to buy them- sit tight-
the Beta testing will be done at our normal wholesale pricing with NO additional costs for aligned edges- ONLY during the Beta testing phase.

Once we are operational to our satisfaction we will advise everyone of the aligned edge price-- but- again- it will be a MINIMAL cost increase to our already low wholesale pricing.

You MUST be a member in good standing here on CT to take advantage of Beta testing.

OK, that gives me 2 months to try a design a cool new chip.

no- although we will be making them- the cost is just too great and the demand too small to warrant the cost-

43's with aligned edges will still be around .25-.30 additional to do
Sorry

Sounds good

Thanks Joe!

Meh... .25-.30 extra per chip is still pretty good for those who want aligned edges on big chips...it's all about the big chips!
