Verified awesomeness ✔
That's really nice.

Which Nimbus Frame is it please?
Pretty sure that he said that it was the ECO one. Let me double check. I'm correct.

Nice frame for Kialara Original and Labyrinth coins. What do you think?

Also, for anyone considering a purchase: my turnaround time for new orders is currently 20 days. Because of the issue with my manufacturer, I am just finishing assembling orders placed in December/January. I expect to have all outstanding orders shipped within two weeks.

Any updates on this?  Hoping my December order arrives any day now.

Hey OgNasty,

All December orders have shipped, along with early January orders. I'm going to PM you now to get your info so I can dig up the tracking number.

All remaining Jan/Feb/March orders are assembled and behind glass minus the four engraved plates. I have plates here I could use, but I've already used up all of the ones that were in the best condition, which was around 25% of my order. I ordered a new batch a month ago, and they shipped late last week, so I expect them here any day now. I am very anxiously awaiting them, and I was told by my manufacturer that each piece was quality inspected this time. I was charged a premium for this.

I'm out the money on the unusable parts, but I'm more concerned with delivering the best quality product possible. For everyone waiting, it will be just a week or so longer. I'll leave another update when I receive the package. Just know that the delay is only because I know the quality can be a little better, and I think that everyone would prefer to wait a little longer if it means receiving a better quality product. I have all boxes addressed and ready to go.

For future reference, I will not be pre-selling any more items. I will be sure to have all parts on hand before collecting any payments. I've learned that when dealing with multiple suppliers for so many different parts, that delays are inevitable. I'm doing my best I can promise everyone that.

I somehow managed to get one of the silver balls stuck within mine, can't dislodge it either Sad

I'm not real
This has probably been answered like 50 times already, but at what number are we at now? The 2015 I mean.
To see how much time I have left to save up for one Tongue

Btw, that's some pretty damn strong glass you put in those things, but I prefer seeing them in 1 piece  Grin

Hey kuusj98, there are still 300+ left with the silver balls, and after a few requests I’ve opened sales for the coins with the ceramic balls. I’ve sold 50+ of those.

Do you still have some with the silver balls?
Thats actually more or less what I wanted to ask, when we are at it: how many 2014 are left?
Do you have plans on a 2016?

In the last six months, I’ve sold just north of 1,000 Originals. I will probably continue to sell these for another six months, and then if there are any left, destroy them, or utilize some of the parts in other designs - like the Labyrinths. I think this is the best move for the brand, and it’s important to me (for my customers) that these appreciate in value over time.

My 2014 and 2015 Kialara's came in today Smiley
Beautiful product Max! Thank you kindly.

Thank you FiniteByDesign, I’m happy with your items as well.

anyone have a time to beat on solving this yet?

Was going to ask the same thing. Expecting my Kialara soon so will post a video if I manage to beat it in a reasonable ammount of time.

I’ve had a few people email me about this. The best time reported back to me so far is 12 minutes. Some have even asked me if anyone has beat it yet. It’s a challenge b/c the balls come out of the center circle while trying to get the others in.

Im curious also. Has anyone solved this in under 12 minutes?

I haven’t posted any official rules yet for my contest for the #03 coin, but I think I will just ask people to share their best time, and then prove it with a video. (so not every person has to upload a video - only the winner(s) So it will need to be recorded. I’m only going to accept times for the coins with the silver balls so please don’t record your attempt with the ceramic balls. Not that it’s easier with the ceramic balls, in fact I believe it is harder.

I’ll probably give everyone until May 1st to record their best time, as there are still many waiting on their order.

I never bothered playing with my Labyrinths. But it is an entertaining feature to watch others do it.  Cheesy

Received my Labyrinth and it's an amazing piece of art just like the 2014!  The puzzle is pretty tough if trying to get them all to the center, extremely unique and some of the people I've shown it to said it looked like a labyrinth before I got to tell them the name of the bar.  Smiley
There's a YouTube video of a solution posted a little earlier to this post... Interesting technique Smiley

I beat it in 6 minutes....I'm trying to upload the video except it is really huge (800mb).  Anyone know how to shrink it on an iphone?  

Scrap that... my best is now 2:55.  I was able to upload the entire video to youtube... it's odd to watch.  I solve it upside down but my phone is hanging over the end of my desk (so it's upside down too) so it looks normal on the video.

I like your technique... I think you can probably beat your own time if you kept at it!

I got them all on the edge in about a minute then spent 5 minutes watching all but one make it to the center.  It's so frustrating... yet still very entertaining.

Pretty cool. I'm wondering if there is a set end date, or something for this competition for the free Kialara.

I mentioned somewhere it would end May 1st, as many have yet to receive their coins. It looks like 2:55 is the number to beat. That was semi-entertaining to watch dumbchump, haha. Thanks!
