I've added several pictures of MONK cases with laser art on them to the main page (right at the top so you don't have to go looking). I'll get some more up when I get back.
We are less than $200 from being funded. Send this around to your friends and get them on board! Post a link on your favorite forums. Send the link to anyone you know who does online reviews. I'll check in as often as I can.

I know I said I'd get some pics up tonight, but the munchkin's illness really threw my schedule out of wack. I promise I'll get some up first thing tomorrow morning. From there, I'll be headed out to CON-ON-THE-COB in Richland, Ohio. I'll try to check in a few times from there.
The good news is that the munchkin is home, happy and bored. She'll take the rest of this week off school and hopefully be well enough to go back next week.
Back with pics in the morning.

Monday night...just getting back from the hospital. The good news: the munchkin is doing well. First night was a bit scary...heart at 160+ bpm, oxygen stats low, doctors all over the place pumping tons of meds in her. Times like that, parenting sucks. Today she was awake, alert and happy when I brought her sis in to visit. They played computer games for about 6 hours straight....longest she's been awake in a stretch for a couple weeks. Small chance she can check out tomorrow; more likely later in the week but either way it is much sooner than I thought when I went to see her Friday night.
Thanks to all for your thoughts.
Plan for this week:
I still have FB ads going and I'm still hoping to get 2 reviews in soon. I'm going to hit the chat boards tomorrow morning before I head back to the hospital.
I also have a bunch of cases burned with images. Tuesday I'll take some pics and get them posted.
Wednesday, I'll be heading up to Richland, Ohio to set up for http://cononthecob.com/
Con on the Cob runs from Thursday to Sunday. I'll do my best to check in on occasion, but my iphone is D-E-D, dead, so it'll be a little rough. If I can get wifi somewhere I can update from my laptop.
I'll be back in the workshop on Monday, getting back to work and trying to bust through some stretch goals. BTW, I'm at 192 likes on FB...get me to 200 and I'll add different color felts and check into suede as an add-on. Get me up to 225 and I'll get some extra woods unlocked.
Don't forget to share this on facebook, your gaming group, forums you post on etc. Every share helps.
You may want to even consider telling your non-gaming friends. I just gave out 10 MONK cases to the girls that play on my softball team. I changed the foam a little and now they have a nice little ring and earring box. Great for a Xmas gift for a young lady.
And yes, if you get your survey in right after the project closes, I'll do my best to get it out to you by Christmas. I won't guarantee it, but based on current numbers, I think I can get a good number out in time for the holidays.

Hello everyone. I was hoping to get an update out with some pictures of some of the artwork on the cases. Unfortunately, there has been a bit of a family emergency with one of my daughters who is in the hospital with pneumonia. She is doing OK, but I'm spending a lot of time there with her.
Just wanted to let everyone know so that you don't think I'm ignoring the page right now. I'll try to get something up in the next couple days, but no promises.
Keep spreading the word. I'll be back as soon as I can.

A few pics

Hello everyone! We are now 2/3 of the way to goal, but I want to go much, much higher. Got a response from a retailer today and sent out some more emails recently, so I hope some of that pays off.
Below are a few pics. The first two are curly maple cases, first front and second back. I sponsor (and coach) a girls softball team and I decided to give them MONK cases this year. The top is nice curly maple and the back has the Hrothgar's Hoard logo on it. I've changed the foam inside so they can use it for a ring/earring case. I'm giving them out tonight...hope they like them.
This last image is of a dice tower with the Tribal Rose image on it. The wood is cedar. I'm putting this up because a backer wanted to know how that image would look on wood. I'm going to get a few more up in the next couple days.
That is all for now. Please take a few minutes and share the project, tweet it, pin it, whatever it. Get the word out!
