Its a wreck..
January 21st - via: kickstarter.com

Packaging...
January 19th - via: kickstarter.com
I've spent 2 or 3 days doing my best Blue Peter impression and have almost reached a functional packaging solution for the models. My main concern was that you folks needed to have something reasonably robust to store them in whilst either between... (Read More)
Mid week update. Almost there!
January 16th - via: kickstarter.com
Hi everyone, it's so incredibly exciting - when we started the Kickstarter - despite having confidence in the project and knowing how effective a training aid these model buoys are - the level of support has been amazing from the industry. It is a... (Read More)

Isolated Danger Mark done.
January 11th - via: kickstarter.com
Hi folks, sorry to have been quiet for a few days - I have been trying to organise packaging and other details! As it stands now, your models should arrive in a nice box of 4, so that you have somewhere to store them between classes, the day shapes... (Read More)
More progress.

Things are progressing nicely with the final designs now being set into production, the prints are starting to roll off now and I am delighted with them. I have a small reveal for the IALA A & B situation which was asked to be included, here are... (Read More)
Update to Starboard Mark
January 7th - via: kickstarter.com
I was not happy with the way the Port & Starboard Mark looked, they were out of proportion to the rest of the set and so I have gone back and designed the day shapes to be much larger and less fiddly, using the same bodies as the rest of the... (Read More)
Starboard Mark and Progress Update

I have created the Starboard Mark with corresponding day shape, the Port marker is next and I will update when that is ready to be revealed. I'm delighted to announce that we will be ramping up as planned with 2 more printers and tons of filament... (Read More)
Light Characteristics Socks!

I've now designed and protoyped the final part of the IALA model buoy system, after feedback from you folks I have managed to work out a way to add light characteristics to the modular system in a way that allows you to choose whether to incorporate... (Read More)
Special Mark done.
January 3rd - via: kickstarter.com
Here is the first Special Mark done, I've have modeled and created the day shape to be a bit oversize, but for students it will be clearly obvious and not fiddly - which is very important. I'm iterating on the actual print finish, but shape and size... (Read More)

Extras will be added for free.
January 2nd - via: kickstarter.com
Thanks everyone! It’s been brought to my attention that the more expensive rewards don’t have a very important addition which I thought I’d done. So.. I’m going to add some extras to the rewards because I want them to be really worth while... (Read More)
