This is a campaign that I backed. They're getting ready to ship rewards, and have opened up their website for other pre-orders as well. Just thought you'd like to know.

Product updates and Pre-Orders
Posted by Brad Ruff
Hi Backers!
We are in the middle of our first production run and things are moving along quickly. Many of you have been asking about shipping dates. We plan to begin shipping the Build Plates only in about two weeks. We have found that scaling up our process is full of unexpected variables and new challenges. We are formulating this coating from scratch and this is just part of materials research. Quality is our top priority, so we wont ship our products until we are certain that they meet all of our standards. That being said, we are working very hard to deliver your rewards as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience!
Now that our production is lined up, we are opening pre-orders at www.geckotek3d.com. Since the Kickstarter campaign ended, people have been contacting us asking when they can purchase the plates and bases. Please spread the work to your friends, family,and fellow makers that if they missed the Kickstarter they can now order GeckoTek products on our website. Planned delivery for these orders is estimated at 1-2 months, and will come out of our second production run. Of course, if you purchased a plate through Kickstarter, you will get yours first.
We wanted to let you know about one minor change between the final products that you are going to receive and what was shown in our Kickstarter video. The Kickstarter and early run GeckoTek Build Plates will be grey instead of green. Its just a by product of the research that we have done recently. Mostly its to assure the best possible properties and performance.
We made a quick video demonstrating the plates and magnetic bases on several different printers. Enjoy!
Stay tuned for more production updates!!!
Thank you
