Monitor Deposit Paid.

So we're up to two custom frames now? One for the K7000, and now one for the D9500?
Earlier you implied that the tubes are used. When did they change to new?
It's also worth noting that the d9500 doesn't support some 15k resolutions natively and your experience will be hit or miss.
From WG:
""Seeing that this is a digital monitor the game that you were asking about with the resolution of 320X224 is not one of the formats that is programmed into this models E-PROM. The lowest resolution for this model is 640X240 @15.75khz."

These look different to me. And at a very minimum on a new custom frame the PD9500 and k7000 chassis will not have the same mounting screw points.
That's a real asshole thing to say, seeing as this project wouldn't even be off the ground, and you wouldn't be making money if it weren't for Rewrite.
I suggest you check your privilege.
@‘Gaming.one’ don’t get discouraged, the majority of the deposits paid couldn’t be more elated and appreciative of the effort and transparency of this project. The Loudest ones in the room are always the weakest.
I'm not, actually. I'm talking about the chassis, same as you. I can't tell if it's language barrier, your lack of knowledge, or you're just being pedantic. D9500 has a PD(tubesizehere)9500 main chassis PCB. We're talking about the same thing.
I'm not concerned about the sides. I'm concerned about the main chassis PCB does not have the same mounting pattern or general dimensions between k7000 and d9500.
You're not making sense in English. Earlier they were used but no burn. Today you say NOS. These are *very* different statements.
Some guys in Brazil took NOS chassis, reverse engineered the data on the EPROM, and then edited it in a way to accept resolutions that it doesn't accept from the factory? That seems highly improbable. I believe you're being sold snake oil.
I am a "people concerned". You would not have a product to make money on if not for me. That comes off arrogant, but it's the truth of the matter and I'm uncertain how else to word it.
Your wanting to finish things faster and being worried about losing a month makes sense as someone who is financially invested in it. But it is not to the benefit of the buyers. The product should be finished correctly, however long that takes.

Funny that you say that not about the guy writing walls of text but about the guy who without his work this project wouldn't have even gotten off the ground.
It's in the name, pal.

I know that I said I wouldn't post again here.
I lied.
@Gaming.One is being a giant prick. @rewrite has bent over backwards to steer this shit show right numerous times. More so behind the scenes then most here know. Go fuck yourself pal.
That's it.

Jeez man, is that really how you talk about people? Especially people who have gone out of their way to make something happen that you benefit from?
I guess I'll publicly apologize to you here for all the hours I poured into helping make this happen across the past two years, so that you could make a deposit to begin with. And I guess I'm sorry that I want you to get the best end product possible.
Seriously though, snarky retort aside, what do you want me to do? Overlook issues so that you can get your cab sooner and then be disappointed when things don't work out?

Yikes, as a non-technical person on this project that contributes nothing I personally appreciate people like Rewrite putting in the work and putting eyes on potential issues. Measure twice cut once type of thing.
You should not worry about logistics until there is a product to have logistics surrounding.
Like I said before. You are trying to push the project along faster because it affects your bottom line. This is not a good thing for the people buying the product. It is only good for you.
Doing things correctly is again, more important than doing them quickly.
I honestly do not understand the rest of your post.
I’m going to be blunt myself, but I literally can’t afford to keep my business afloat if there is something notably wrong with these monitor/chassis, this isn’t just some business venture I can afford to just say ah well better luck next time on, so it means a lot to me that @rewrite brings up these issues if they exist. He is helping provide clarification that I simply don’t have time and experience to get on my own, and clarification that buyers for these cabs may not have. I’m not interested in just selling cabinets, making a buck, and being done. I’m only doing this because I want to help facilitate something for people that otherwise may not get facilitated. It’s an enormous financial risk for me, so I need to know everything well in advance. @Gaming.One, I think it’s in very poor taste to try to push forward if there’s a concern that these monitors won’t support a lot of 15k resolutions. This is information buyers NEED to know. This is information I NEED to know.
My entire reason I asked to push back the payment date was to make 100% sure these tubes will fit the needs of people buying them; that’s not just the physical fit. If they are tri-sync, they better accept all resolutions in that range, or they are a mis-advertised product. I’m not interested in rushing this those thing if I don’t have to. I will refund every single person who has paid for a product that isn’t what they want because they deserve better than under expectation, and I’m not buying monitors that don’t meet the mark. Let full, accurate information be given about these monitors so that nobody makes a bad decision that costs all of us in the end, stop trying to rush it through.

The guy took measurements of his own cabinet, used a color gun to find the correct colors, hunted down a k7000, the list goes on. He's not just a middle man, hes an integral part of this project next to Hursit. Listen to what he says.
From the moment this project took off, we've had numerous people try to change the monitor to suit their needs, and have Hursit change the design.
You're no different. Now, you're feeling the salt of someone jumping up and hijacking your monitor. Welcome to the club.
Don't come around here saying we're "burning the job for other people". If that's what you think, you can take your helicopter view and jump out.

Just so you know, idgaf if your spinning the tubes yourself. So get off that high horse right now. I've contributed more to this project then you have at this point and I have zero dogs in the fight besides making sure my friends dont get stuck with a cabinet that isn't measured correctly. Myself and several folks have brought issues to the attention of rewrite behind the scenes and he helps Hursit with them. It's no secret I dislike Hursit and I don't care for Cereth either, but for you to put someone livelyhood on the line cause you have deadlines to meet is totally fucked.
One thing to point out, the “buyers” here are also members of the community, not a number. I’m in this to give the community something they want, not to earn a number off them. That is and always will be my top priority. I’m only going to proceed with any aspect of this order if it meets the standards that the community is looking for. I don’t have the technical knowledge or time to seek the answers on these monitors, so the work/research of others who do is priceless. Ultimately if there is a concern or not, I need to see a conclusion to the discussion whether it takes a day or a month before we can really move forward. No monitor is better than a sub-par monitor. Once it’s done, it can’t be undone.
