Re: [Gauging Interest] Gorilla Glass Screen Surround
Updates:
Hey Everyone! The first batch has come in and they look great. I had several flawed ones that I'm talking to the glazier about fixing. When I work out a solution with them (which I can hopefully use to bring the price down from $15) I will get back to you all.
Here's the deal with surrounds:
I have heard from @dominator and I believe he's going to send me a sample of his screen surrounds so I can test. He had a little bit of bad fortune with a home invasion this past month so that whole surround in gorilla glass process may be slow to the jump. Also, because of the coating on the GG I'm expecting significant difficulty in attempting to adhere the a surround to the glass itself.
When I hear back from my glass supplier in regards to there solution with the glass I'll come straight back here ready to ship!
BOOM

Re: [Gauging Interest] Gorilla Glass Screen Surround
Let's say this Friday, 9.16.16 at 12:00ish pm EST. i think that gives everyone a fair shot at grabbing from this first batchday wrote:incontrasttogray wrote: Definitely working on it but it's looking I'm a way from getting all the components together that will work with the glass after it's been tempered and treated.
do you have a quick update on that or an approximate time of opening orders ?
thanks !

Re: [Gauging Interest] Gorilla Glass Screen Surround
I am a bit late to the party it seems. Is there enough headroom to try a grab one on friday? I wouldn't want anyone who made this possible in the first place to end up empty handed.

You're gonna have a hellified wait on your hands. I can't guarantee that's going to be an option as of this moment.pogo wrote:In for one or two too, if they have borders.

As of right now, if I DID do borders on my own, it would come out to about $40.00+ per glass
