Hi Smash
Any chance on an update on when the shop is likely to be back on line?
We haven’t seen any sign of life since the 23rd.
Just keen to place an order.
Thank you
Rick Whatson
I’m keen too, but I’m happy to sit here on a wad of cash until the shop opens. You should try it, it’s not so bad!
Don’t rush the man 
But hey, Smash, don’t get mad cause we rush ya… it just means we love ya ;D :-* heheheh

I’m still slowly chipping away at the backorders, I have a stack here ready to go out tomorrow and I’ll be packing a few more before my head hits the pillow tonight.
I did change my core doc page to reflect the corrected board, and get the store page itself ready to re-open (added a couple of things for the new layouts like 10p ribbon cable)…had 3 hours of travel time to get all that solid today, and I never want to edit html on my palm pilot again…
Best answer I can give is ASAP, and clearing all orders/re-opening store is dangerously high on my list right now, considering I have $12,000 worth of last-minute-booking shows to do this weekend…
Crazy how everything hits at once.
Very soon or die trying is my plan, I wish I had a better answer… :-\
Best
Smash
Smash… mate… Relax 8)
Don’t forget that YOU are the one doing US a favour. I know you’re trying hard to do the right thing by us all, but don’t stress too hard. I’m sure that anyone who was angry about waiting will have already let you know, and the rest of us will understand that you do have a life outside of being our own personal ‘PCB Angel’ 
I don’t know about the rest of the people here, but I for one greatly appreciate your work, and I’d much rather see you take your sweet time, and have to wait to get my boards, than to see you get stressed and decide that the whole thing is just too hard.
Here is my todo list: (the short answer!)
Ship all waiting orders
Revise core info page
Reopen store
Fall over dead (ahhh rest!)
//update
Smash did new 3D renders of the core Yesterday..

I love those renders Does anyone know what software does that?
I’m guessing Eagle3D package from http://www.matwei.de/ & POVRay.

Just had a look at the new boards on you site, Smash you have done an excellent job of the lay out ;D
Much respect!
Rowan
Holy craaaap yeh they look great!!
[me=stryd_one]puts aside an extra hundred[/me]
;D
thanks all
Man those boards are sweet! Makes me wish I had waited to order my core and SID boards. Good job smash!

I just gave up smokes to buy more boards. MIDIBox is good for your health
It’s so painful watching the order status page every day and seeing the green lines at the beginning dwindle… the excitement is killing me…
!jdfj!
The only thing worse, is when I see a new post in this thread and think “Yay! It’s Smash, come to tell us the store is open again!” and then it’s not him hehehehe
Where do i go to see these new 3d renders of the boards?
Hi,
http://www.avishowtech.com/mbhp/info.html and then click the appropriate module for info.

SmashTV, I don’t know you, but I sure do appreciate you! I am eagerly awaiting the opening of the store as well to buy my materials for the m64. In the meantime, I will continue to practice my soldering skills (chicks dig guys with skills) and await the day when I can move forward on my project.
Don’t stress too much, either. No matter how long it takes you, it is likely still much shorter than it would take me to learn the skills, buy the materials, develop the traces, and prep the boards myself.
Sincerely,
Don.
Smash, looking at the new DIN module, it looks like you have it such that one can use either SIP resistor nets or discrete resistors. Is this correct?

In the behalf of Smash I can tell: Yes, Your correct.

Smash:
Will you provide kits for these boards as well? If so, how much will these cost?
Have you thougt of providing a complete kit for the Midibox SID Step C? With all the boards and all the components, in one package. Maybe with a better price than when buying them piece by piece?
Just trying to get my costs together Keep up the good work!
