"You can't get our measurement kit or caliper in their store- However, I didn't know that store existed. Our MOQ is 500 units and our cost per unit is more than the caliper you've shown by a significant percentage. Not to mention shipping and the inclusion of a fully custom case, and rule with their own sourcing, manufacturing and MOQs. Again, we're not in it for the money, and we've been forthright and clear about our intentions and process. Most importantly we're proud of our work."
"@Anonymous I think if you visit our campaign most of your questions will be clearly addressed. Also, 'life funding'... if we wanted a quick buck we'd have stuck with cnc'd pens, a wallet, or iPhone peripheral, don't you think? Hit me up at info@flintstudiotools.com and I'll send you a completely custom, every detail designed by us, rule... If we fund. You can use it as a door-stop of something. -Jonny J"
"@Mark Thomas I'm sorry you feel this way. Your comment has been addressed in other posts on this comment board, but I want you to know our effort has been sincere. I think if you visit our campaign you'll see we have worked hard and honestly to create something we genuinely think is worthwhile. You're of course free to disagree with that, but we're proud of what we've done. Hit us up at info@flintstudiotools.com and we'll send you a rule if we fund. -Jonny J"
"@Anonymous I'm sorry you think this is a rip-off campaign. We sincerely worked hard to create something that we thought was great. Our intent has been well-meaning and genuine. We have put countless hours into designing and developing our offering. If you visit our campaign, I think you'll find that we have been clear and forthright about the different components that make up our kit, and what's gone into each of them. To be clear... 'quick money'? There's nothing quick about the last 12 months, and the countless hours that have gone into this project- hours of brainstorming, design, CAD, refinement, updates, material selection, zipper selection, durometer testing, prototyping, graphic design... not to mention the Kickstarter effort itself... shooting a video, getting good photos, recording a voice-over 100 damn times (one of the most maddening things in the world) etc. The list of time and efforts goes on and on. We won't make that time back on this project even if we funded 2 times over. But it's an effort that's been fun and rewarding. We're designers and we love creating things, and we may get a chance to put our work out here without a client calling the shots... That's a fun, exciting thing, and that's all this is about. Hit us up at info@flintstudiotools.com and we'll send you a complimentary rule if we fund. -Jonny J"
"@TP Why so mean spirited? To get to a design that looks and functions great, it takes a lot of iterations that may be terrible. It's exploratory and is a key part of the design process that should be embraced. Don't you agree? -Jonny J"
