GMK DMG 3
COMPANY UPDATES
NEW FACILITY
+ We have purchased a 3 acre parcel of land and are preparing for construction of a custom-built 12,000~ sq/ft facility. 3 acres is more than we need at this moment, but it will allow us to expand with new facilities as we grow in the future without moving again.
+ We have a meeting early next week to finalize the design of the building. We hope to have more information in a dedicated post soon.
+ We closed the form on Sunday night and will be taking a look at the names when we have the time in the next week or so.
FUTURE PRODUCTS
BAUER LITE
DEVELOPMENT PHASE
+ We are finally moving into the tooling phase. We hope to have samples to show off in the coming month or two.
Known Info
+ Injection-molded Polycarbonate
+ Bauer Lite PCB will be the same form factor as (and compatible with) Bauer 2
+ Bauer Lite plates will be the same as (and compatible with) Bauer 2
+ Bauer Lite top/bottom case is not the same as Bauer 2 metal versions (i.e. not compatible) because the injection molding process requires a different design for production

+ Will be consistently available and may launch it with an unlimited preorder
+ There will be a hotswap PCB

Waitlist
+ We have opened up a list for anyone who is waiting for the release of this project, since we are growing closer. This list is separate from our normal newsletter and will provide updates specifically about Bauer Lite, as we get closer to the release. This will also help us make decision on how we will handle the launch, by knowing how many people are wanting a board.
