We have about $200 into just the pipe and tubing for the official version, minus the DOM spec. We bought standard welded seam tubing, since DOM was WAY more expensive, and not readily available.

To clarify, we will be producing the steel corner gusset plates only, not full welded corners. It's likely that the plates will cost in the neighborhood of $3 each. They might be 3/16 rather than 1/4 thick. Still working on details with our manufacturer. Should have it tomorrow.

We can produce the plywood gussets if there is sufficient interest, but I imagine most teams can fabricate their own.

Making them out of 3/16" is far less attractive to us.

Gussets will be lasercut from 1/4" plate and cost $80 shipped for the set of 16. in the US, to teams who have already posted here or talked to me. They will ship on Saturday 1/12 if payment is received. You can PM me.

Team 1111 would be extremely interested in a metal set.

What if we only wanted 4 or 8? If so, 449 is definitely interested.

1519 is interested, but I'll need to check with our field element subteam to make sure they haven't already started making these!

Team 2601 would also like to order a full set

The gusset ordering page is now up. Payment is through Paypal (which I think will take a card) or check in snail mail.

For the present time, I will only to the following teams who have posted in this thread indicating interest. The teams eligible for purchase are:

3847
1701
296
1687
766
2137
4509
967
3481
991

Place orders here

If these don't sell to the above eight teams by the end of Saturday 1/13/13, I'll open up to the next teams above in order of posting in this thread. If they sell out to the above teams, I'll consider a second run of parts, and offer them to the remaining teams and additional new teams, by the order of posts in this thread.

Thanks for doing this! Order sent, now our small, rookie team can focus on other stuff.

Re: 2013 Pyramid Corner Gussets - Any interest in purchasing?
 
There are approximately 5 and a half sets of gussets remaining that are available for purchase. Ordering is now open to all teams who have previously posted in this thread, on a first come first serve basis. Here is the Ordering page. Please use gracious professionalism here, and do not purchase if your team did not previously indicate interest in this thread. Thanks.

Re: 2013 Pyramid Corner Gussets - Any interest in purchasing?
 
GUSSETS ARE NOW SOLD OUT! I am considering doing one more run of about 3 full sets. It would likely be about two weeks until I they could ship out. Please post here if you want to purchase a set. No guarantees.
