Nice, I'll help spread the word.  

And here are some questions that I have...

- One of the most talented active diorama makers is Boutros77 - have you checked out his work?  Could you use some of his fantastic designs for some inspiration here?  http://www.flickr.com/photos/boutros77/sets  

- Another start-up campaign for similar 3D environments has run into some snags in terms of turnaround time with their orders.  What are your thoughts with that regarding your products?  How long does it take for an order to get created from start to finish (such as one basic $50 purchase order)?  What I mean here, is the average # of hours.

- How is the paint applied in your process?

Thanks!

I've placed an order for the Ultimate Forest Set and have a few questions for Twelfth Parsec during the podcast.

-With the orders due in around July, when might the proposed expansions, leafy tops, and staircases be available?
-What other environments might be on the drawing board for the future?  A Tusken Raider camp set would be cool!
-When will the smaller pieces (ladders, camp fire, logs, etc.) become available - a la cart?

*Please pass on to Twelfth Parsec that their Space Tree concept is greatly appreciated by fans and we wish them all the luck in this venture!

Wow, so excited for this project! I found you guys through Facebook and am looking forward to hearing the interview w/ 12th Parsec tomorrow. What a great idea. I am a huge fan of Ewoks and am definitely considering getting some Space Trees! Payday is Friday!

I have so many questions, but mainly I just want to know WHO is 12th Parsec? Are they a small army of fans or it it just one guy in his garage?

How did they get the idea to start doing 3D printing?

Why start on Endor? There are so many great ideas for playsets, just curious why trees 1st?

I could go on and on, but here's my last question...now that the project has fully funded (and more) what's next from 12th Parsec?

Thanks guys, keep up the good work!!!

With the funding goal now met, has production began on fulfilling the orders?

About how long does it take to produce an Early Bird Deluxe set?

How many printers do you have running at once?

Are all the printers running 24/7 ?

How much experience do you have with 3D printing development?

Hey everyone,


Hope everyone enjoyed the podcast I know we did.

Thanks again for having us on !

AND

Thanks to everyone for helping us reach our goal.

Only 7 days left to order your set so get to it if you havent yet and have been wanting to.


But if you need another reason to, lets sweeten the pot.

- $7,000 Bonus Goal

If we can reach $7,000 everyone will get a not yet released Torch Railing included with their set! So lets keep spreading the word ! And try to reach that mark to get the bonus!

Achieving a higher amount during the indiegogo will allow us to afford more resources to bring you space trees and other new environments at an even much faster pace.

So spread the word lets get those orders in ONLY 7 DAYS LEFT!

Thanks everyone!
