Ordered mine on Friday. Arrived here in Iowa yesterday. He shipped on Saturday as promised.

Were these made on a CNC table? The score lines suggest it wasn't die-cut.

Impressed by the simplicity of the idea.

Hi baniels,
You're right; the smoke and clear are made on a CNC table. Talk about labor-intensive huh? These are being made from what material my manufacturer has left in his Georgetown, TX shop. He stacks 3 or 4 sheets on top of each other, sandwiched between two sheets of aluminum and cuts out 8 which 24 at a time.. Then when that's done, he deburrs by hand and also stamps in the creases with his press and a custom made jigg.

The other colors are die cut.

Snowman and shades: I'm not sure why that first youtube link is broken in the original post, but if you go to GoGoStand: it goes where you go! there's videos on there too.

Got anything for me? :)

Cool. I used to operate an autometrix cutting table for packaging mock-ups. We would do a lot of clear pvc boxes and package windows. Looking at the stand brought back memories.

I'm not sure I understand the aluminum sheets in between - he cuts through the aluminum also?

Just 2 sheets of aluminum, top and bottom. Otherwise the polypropylene sheets would flop around. He cuts through the aluminum too. So, in case you were wondering, yes, he's got a few aluminum gogostands laying around the shop :) Except they're a little difficult to fold.

Got my GoGo stands in the mail today. Super quick shipping.

I am in love with these. By far the best phone accessory I have ever purchased!

I strongly recommend the bronze, it looks so awesome and the goldishness compliments the droid well!
