Production Update: Design Finalized and Supply Chain Secured
From Concept to Reality: A Major Milestone
We’re thrilled to announce a significant milestone in our journey to bring the LED Dice Displays to your gaming tables: our core design has been finalized and locked in for production! After months of prototyping, testing, and refining, we’ve created displays that perfectly showcase your precious dice collections while meeting our high standards for quality and functionality.
Domestic Supply Chain: Supporting American Manufacturing
In an effort to ensure reliable production timelines and avoid international shipping delays and tariff complications, we’ve established partnerships with primarily US-based suppliers and manufacturers. This strategic decision offers several benefits:
- Reduced Tariff Exposure: By sourcing components domestically, we minimize the impact of international tariffs that could affect pricing or production schedules.
- Shorter Supply Lines: Domestic sourcing means fewer logistical hurdles and faster response times if adjustments are needed.
- Enhanced Quality Control: Our team can more easily visit manufacturing facilities and maintain direct oversight of production.
- Supporting Local Economy: We’re proud to support American manufacturers and jobs whenever possible.
Component Sourcing: Quality at Every Level
LED Systems
We’ve partnered with a specialized LED manufacturer in the Pacific Northwest who produces energy-efficient, consistent lighting elements that perfectly illuminate your dice without generating excess heat.
For our Character Shrine spotlight and UV Charging Station, we’ve selected specialized components from established industry leaders to ensure consistent performance.
Production Timeline on Track
With our design finalized and vendor relationships secured, we’re confidently on track for our production timeline. Here’s what comes next:
- Final Production Samples: Set to arrive in the coming weeks for final approval
- Manufacturing Ramp-Up: Production lines being prepared
- Quality Assurance Protocol: Final testing procedures being established
- Packaging Design: Currently being finalized with our domestic packaging partner
What This Means for Our Kickstarter
This milestone gives us high confidence in our ability to deliver as promised. By finalizing our design and securing our supply chain before our Kickstarter launch, we’ve mitigated many of the common risks associated with crowdfunding campaigns.
For our backers, this means:
- Realistic delivery estimates
- Transparent production updates
- Confidence in the final product quality
- Minimal risk of tariff-related price increases
Sneak Peek: Final Production Prototypes
The images above show our final production prototypes, which have passed all our rigorous testing protocols. What you see here is what you’ll receive when you back our project – no last-minute design changes or unexpected “adjustments.”
Rolling Forward
With these crucial elements in place, we’re more excited than ever to bring our LED Dice Displays to the gaming community. Our Kickstarter campaign will launch, and we can’t wait to share this journey with all of you.
Stay tuned for more updates as we count down to launch day!
