Introduction

Hello everyone and welcome to the 101st Edition of our newsletter! It has been just over a month since our last one, and this time we have updates focusing on our Series 4 Grey Tools! So let's get into it!

Series 4 Grey Tools

Our Series 4 Grey Tools have now been completely assembled and checked for Quality Control! The batteries, domes, and collar tabs have all been installed, and the packaging tins have all been prepped with their foam inserts and resin stands. Kas has also made sure to re-cut the acrylic stand clips in a material which is slightly thinner than our Grey Aztec run, as some people had issues with the clips being too tight to fit into the stands. Now that the S4 Grey Tools are ready, Kas is boxing them up and packaging them for shipping tomorrow!

Anyone who has purchased an S4 Grey Tool without metal weathering will receive a tracking number tonight. For anyone who purchased one with the metal weathering option, a tracking number will be sent out within the next 2 weeks, as Kas will be heading up to Josh H's workshop soon to hand over the the Grey Tools for him to meticulously hand weather with all the accurate detailing!

We want to thank you all for your patience over the duration of this run! This has been our quickest one yet with orders starting in June last year! We are very excited for you to all receive them and to see them on Instagram/YouTube/etc!

Grandad Tools

Kas has also been working on Grandad Tools alongside the Series 4 Grey Tools. Kas is now fitting the electronics and aiming for them to be ready to ship next Monday. Progress pictures will be included in the next newsletter on Monday 29th June!

The future of our Newsletters

Now that we are approaching the end of our currently remaining pre-orders. We will be changing our newsletters from bi-weekly to monthly. This is as our remaining projects are smaller in capacity but more detail oriented, and so as each month goes by another project should be complete, with plenty of photos and progress update to show for each time! However, before we do this, we will be releasing another newsletter next week on Monday to show updates on our Grandad Tools, as they are almost complete and will be shipping soon! The next project upcoming will be the Crystal McGann tools, as specified in our upcoming schedule.

And that's all for today folks! We thank you all for your patience as we are coming to a close on our current pre-orders. We are very excited to start some new projects later this year and to announce them in future newsletters! Our next newsletter will be on Monday 29th June - featuring Grandad Tools, with the next newsletter after that being the first of our monthly schedule, beginning on Sunday 2nd August - featuring Crystal McGann Tools and more. With that, I wish you all a lovely week, we'll see you next time!
