The Last word that I got from them was that I could expect to receive my sd3 within the first two weeks in Jan.  Since it has not yet been shipped, I believe this is equivelent to the delivery expectation of 6 to 8 weeks I was told mid July for my original sd2 order.

Have you been waiting 6 months for your printer?  You are one patient person!

Re: Orders Shipping List

Re: Orders Shipping List

My original SD2 order 5362 was placed on 10/26 but upgraded to SD3 order 5833 on 11/18.

Hoping to see some SD3's to start shipping soon. 

At least once it does finally ship should be quick from Brooklyn to Jersey wink

Re: Orders Shipping List

Yeah I feel like more frequent shipping updates could help with the waiting game. Of course actually doing the things mentioned in the shipping updates also helps.

Have you checked the status on the store website? The email that they sent to me about the printer being shipped was in my spam folder.

My printer order from 1st of October was shipped some days ago, so if the status on the store is not shipped on your printer you could perhaps send them an email and ask for the status.

Re: Orders Shipping List

I'm order number 4698 for a SD2 + filament.  Date Added: 27/09/2012.  Shipped on the 8th of Jan, apparently.  Add 6-10 days for international shipping (to Melbourne, Australia) and that could make it Monday ... I'm off interstate on Tuesday for 10 days.  :S  This is going to take the shine off my holidays.  I'm going to be busting it to get back home and open the box!

It's going to take me a month of printing to get through the backlog of things I've been excitedly modelling in anticipation ... and it always ends the same way.  If only ...

Currently, it's taken 15 weeks and three days ... but who's counting?

Scott.


-----------------------------------
A note from my partner:

Dear Solidoodle geeks,
I'm about to go on holidays with someone eagerly awaiting the arrival of his Solidoodle printer and I'm afraid that our holidays will be coloured by 3D printer anguish.  Do you have any advice for how to deal with this? 
Yours sincerely,
Solidwiddow.

Re: Orders Shipping List

I asked SD support about when to expect my SD 3 to be shipped: here is  the  reply:


Most likely it will be going out in early March. This is a pessimistic date, and it could possibly go out a bit sooner than that.

Regards,
John

That will be about 8-9 weeks . It looks like the  lead times are getting shorter. Just  FYI for those who recently ordered.

SD3, E3D hotend,linear bearing on x/y axis',pillow block bearing on y conneting rod, ball bearngs on front y axis, fan on y stepper motor.

Re: Orders Shipping List

All right! Order # 5875 is now shipped.  Hey, not only did they update the status and send me an email, I got a call from Rafael just to make sure that it was okay to send it out now (a week EARLY).  Now THAT'S improvement, lol! Now I just gotta wait those few days until I finally get it....I'm ready!  I already have a list of items designed in various software packages...let the testing begin!

So, just as heads up:

We know you guys keep good track of which orders have shipped. You may see a small discrepancy since there was a small shortage of covers for the S2:Expert models last week. Long story short, we got way ahead of schedule on SD:Pros and behind on SD:Experts. This may show up as a blip on compiled time lines.

Hope this clears things up!

Re: Orders Shipping List

Any update on the 3? You're now ahead in order # than the start of the 3's.

569

Re: Orders Shipping List

I would hope that they don't want to start shipping S3s until they have solved the banding problem that has plagued the later S2s.  If that is the case, then you should be grateful they haven't started shipping yet.

Hm.. I'll be getting my printer soon, is this something I need to be looking out for? If so, can you give a description of the problem? (I wasn't able to find any info regarding this when I was looking around the forum.)

Re: Orders Shipping List

There have been several threads around, especially at the google groups.  It has been attributed a lot to wobbly Z rods, but it seems to come down to some rods having problems with the threads, causing inconsistencies in the length of moves when changing layers.  Hopefully they are either changing suppliers or working out a way to detect the bad rods before installing them.  We don't know for sure, that is the kind of thing any company would keep to themselves.

Ian, is this a wide spread problem or something that perhaps was due to a "batch" of bad hardware specs or such???  I am REALLY hoping for a good unit, but I'll be on the look out for this problem.  Thanks!  Kevin

Widespread but mainly regarding .1mm prints
