While I planned to use Kickstarter to help fund this, for a variety of different reasons I have decided not to.

It appears that there is enough demand for at least ten meters.
The parts are not that much, but there are still jigs and tooling required to complete the job.

Introductory pre-order pricing will be in effect for the first ten meters.
$85 each, will include shipping Priority Mail in the US.
Overseas shipping will be more, based on the actual cost for Parcel Post.
Overseas customers - I will work with you for cm-gram readings if you want this.

Included in the cost will be laser cut box for the meter, meant to protect it while packed.
I haven't finalized the design on this yet - I expect more than one iteration from the laser cutter.
1/8" Baltic Birch ply is what I expect to go with - Inexpensive, pretty durable and will glue up well.

I won't have the Propblocks website updated to include this until Sunday most likely (As I will be flying F1D on Saturday), but please contact me through the propblocks gmail address if you are ready to order.

If all goes well, I would expect the meters to ship in about 90 days.

Regards.
