Is it too late to buy one of these??
Wow those look beautiful Max. Looking forward to receiving mine and adding it on the shelf next to every single other Kialara piece I have. Thanks for putting in the long hours to get these out to us. We don't mind the delay since we know the quality of work you put into them. Take you time!
Looks well organized, I'm wondering who makes that multi drawer system the Kialara's are stored in while assembling.
Is it this one? Looks pretty close anyhow...

Very cool and thanks, I'll do some searching for them.
I'd venture to say anyone with cool bar style items would be able to make those drawers look awesome when filled.
Would be neat to see Kialara Gold bars next to real gold bars, that would be quite something! I'd venture to say anyone with cool bar style items would be able to make those drawers look awesome when filled.

They look like the drawers we had in my art class years and years ago. Not sure how much that helps you, but it might be worth to google around for drawers like these. I wouldn't mind having those as my display cases. I wonder how the drawer would look if TMAN buy's one of these.

Keys and holograms have been assembled into the 21 ‘two bitcoin’ coins.
Keys and holograms have been assembled into half of the ‘500k bits’ coins. I have 50 left to assemble.
Over the weekend I will be loading the keys and holograms into the ‘100k bits’ coins.
When all holograms and keys have been loaded to all coins, I will begin placing the coins into the bars and ship as I go.
Each bar will ship in a small red velvet pouch and will come with a small acrylic stand/easel.
I added a light coat of a paleobond meteorite clear coat spray to each of the cut samples, to protect them from cracking or chipping inside of the glass window. They feel very solid and I’m happy with how they look.
I’ve only had all parts in stock for two weeks now so am doing my best.
Next update will be early next week, thanks all.

I cannot wait to get my bar! Can I make a sacrifice to the Kialara gods to speed it all up?
so good to see fellow collectors so excited about a new Kialara release. What type of sacrifice will do in this case?
- Peel a physical Bitcoin of your choice
- Hold a physical Bitcoin of your choice with bare hands after dipping them into sticky honey, then put back into its airtite as it is and leave under the sun
- Clean a physical Bitcoin of your choice with sandpaper using clockwise and counter clockwise motion
- Drop a high value loaded physical Bitcoin in acid, and let it dissolve together with holo and private key, you have to watch the whole thing too
There is another update on Kialara blog:
I hope they are done with assembling soon. Quote

I’ve been very hard at work (12 hour days each day this week), and will work on a detailed update to share here and via email tomorrow (Thursday) around 5pm/6pm California time. Lots of pics to share too!

Great! Looking forward to seeing the pictures. I received a package from Max a few days ago, was silently hoping they contained the To The Moon pieces

75% of NWA5000 samples now cut and loaded into bars… took a break today and began applying the keys/holograms, and finished a dozen of them before I left late in the day – but not in time to ship out today. It took some time to get the process down. I’ll be back in my studio this weekend to continue with assembly, and will share some more news and photos on Monday.

I should fly out and hand pick up my series. Would be great to see Max again and enjoy the weather. I'll have to make some room on my shelf for this new series next to my thug life piece, and the other kialara collection. Keep up the great work Max!
I really can't wait to get this bar. I'm sure it will look even better in person as with all Kialara's.

Everything is going smoothly with assembly. There are some tasks that have taken more time than I would like… for example of the 5,000 holograms I ordered, only 1 in 10 have the square window centered inside the circle. It’s enough to complete these, but took almost a full day to inspect each. http://imgur.com/oIOJ2bE I do have someone helping me with some of the smaller tasks to help get these shipped sooner… even just unwrapping the 400 housings, 400 clips and 800 circular retaining rings from their factory packaging was a full day with help.
The NWA5000 samples have been loaded into around 1/2 of the bars, and I’m still cutting the rest. It’s a very slow process and is something I’ve spent the better part of the last week or two working on – I plan to take some photos of this process to share soon. I have gone through a dozen diamond coated saw blades already.
My goal is for shipping to begin this Friday, so I will post a new update by then.
P.S. I have also been shipping out signature series (bars/prints) orders, which I fell a little behind on – so if you’re waiting on these, know that you will be receiving them any day now.
