The Scrollplay

Kickstarter Link

Just began the campaign just 2 hours ago. There’s already been a few random backers so that is excellent news. I’ve also put in for a facebook ad that is currently under review.

The new SLA prototype parts came in. SLA is, of course, pretty brittle, so I cracked a few of the plastite holes but that’s to be expected. The whole assembly came together quickly. The magnets dropped right in and I had no issues with the epoxy. The new hinged lid “teeth” work pretty well with the pusher ribs in the container but I may just alter the teeth further and take out the ribs because they are spaced a bit too far apart so cards without sleeves do not bridge the gap.

Looks like I’ll be able to submit it tomorrow. The video came together very well. I’ve also received the first artwork for the mat and it looks great. After I submit i can work on ways to advertise.

The raw footage for the kickstarter video and the final pictures I need have been taken. Just need to edit it all together. Speaking on video is definitely not my forte but it had to be done. Hopefully everything comes together cohesively.

Added the color renders to the kickstarter page, as well as all the pricing and reward tiers. Its almost ready to go online. I just need the video and the last few strap pics.

Got a new scale so I have recorded the weights of the scroll, mats, and straps. Picked out shipping packages and calculated preliminary shipping costs. I’m not sure how to handle international shipping but I’ll cross that bridge if I ever get to it

Been searching for some strong carabiners today. Ben has tipped me off to the existence of pinned carabiners and I think I found a source that can also print on them. I’ll have them send me a sample so that I can verify quality. I’ve also sent off step files of the plastic bits for quote so hopefully it comes back at a good price

I would like to introduce the Scroll Play, a scroll shaped combination of card storage and playmat. Just sit down, unroll, and take out your cards. The mat is both stored with the container as well as acts as another protective layer for your valuable cardboard and other things. So convenient! I will be using this blog to detail progress work on trying to get this mass produced.
