EZ Stick 3D Printer Build Surface by GeckoTek

Stretch Goal 2: Free Cleaning Wipes
almost 7 years ago – Wed, May 10, 2017 at 03:37:35 PM

Hi Backers!

We are on our way to reach the first $30,000 Stretch Goal so that everyone gets a free Removal Tool. We still need your help to spread the word our Campaign so we're announcing another Stretch Goal.

Stretch Goal #2 If we reach $35,000 that everyone gets a 20-pack of the cleaning wipes. 

These wipes are really handy to have. The EZ Stick Surface only needs to get wiped down every 5-10 prints to keep it working at its best. Alcohol removes fingerprints and brings back the adhesive properties of the coating. 

Don't forget to tell everyone about the Risk Free Money Back Guarantee!! If EZ Stick isn't the best Build Surface that you've ever used then we will refund 100% of your pledge. We are confident that you will love this surface like so many of our past customers. 

May the 4th be with you! 

We are planning a live stream for next week. If you have any suggestions or things that you would like to see live let us know. 

Thank you for all the support!

Stretch Goal #1 - Free removal tool
about 7 years ago – Wed, May 03, 2017 at 12:04:29 PM

Hi Backers,

Thank you all for the support and for helping us get the word out about GeckoTek EZ Stick! We're releasing some stretch goals to encourage everyone to let the whole 3D Printing community know that EZ Stick is the real deal. 

Don't forget to tell everyone about the Risk Free Money Back Guarantee!! If EZ Stick isn't the best Build Surface that you've ever used then we will refund 100% of your pledge. We are confident that you will love this surface like so many of our past customers. See previous update for details.

Stretch Goal #1: If we reach $30,000 in pledges then every Backer gets one of our new Plastic Removal tools for Free! 

It may look like a simple plastic spatula but we tested a dozens of different materials and shapes to find the right one. This tool won't scratch the EZ Stick coating and has a nice hard edge that easily get under the edge of single layers or left over rafts to pop them off. 

If you have any parts that you have been trying to print but are unable to get them to stick or remove cleanly let us know! I'll print it out on a EZ Stick surface and post a video. 

Thanks,

Brad Ruff

We did it! The EZ Stick Build Surface is 100% Funded!!!

Hi Backers, 

I am pumped and excited to announce that last night we reached our Funding Goal!!

I can't thank you enough for supporting us and helping to bring EZ Stick to life. We really believe that this product will make desktop 3D printing easier and more accessible for everyone. 

I have been considering something for a little while and after talking to many past customers and new backers it's become clear that it's the right thing to do. We really believe that GeckoTek is the best performing, easiest to use Build Surface available. So we are going to put our money where our mouth is...

We are offering a No Risk Money Back Guarantee to all Kickstarter Backers. If EZ Stick isn't the Best Build Surface you've ever used, that we will refund 100% of your pledge. 

We are committed to being the best so if you're not satisfied with EZ Stick just let us know what we could do better and get your money back. I posted an example refund request form on our website.

We hope that this will help convince those that are still on the fence to support our campaign and convince you to get one for all your 3D Printers. Please help us spread the word by telling your friends and anyone that has a 3D Printer.  

Thanks,

Brad

GeckoTek Founder, CEO

PS: Kickstarter has this cool Live Stream feature now. If anyone has a difficult part that they would like me to print on the EZ Stick Surface I will do so and show it on the live stream. Send a message or comment with a link to the stl. I'll try to do a few live test prints over the remain weeks.

We're So Close! Updated Reward Levels

Hi Backers! 

We are so close to our funding goal!  As of sending this we need less than $1000 in pledges to reach $20,000. Spread the word and let everyone know about EZ Stick! We can do it! 

We saw a big spike after our Last Update so we know that many of you are sharing the campaign. Thank you all so much! Keep it going and we will blow past our Goal!!

We have been planning out some awesome stretch Goals that we think you will like. The sooner we reach $20,000 the sooner we can get to the stretch goals! (spoiler alert: It involves free stuff ;-) )

I added two new rewards levels for those wanting a large number of Sheets. 

• $150 Printer Farm and Club Level. Get 10 12"x12" sheets for $150.  We can substitute other sizes as long as the total area is the same. 
• $360 Distributor Level. For those interested in Reselling our products. This level is priced for 10, 12x12" 3-Packs. Contact us for additional pricing information. 

We have been talking with backers to see what are the best ways to spread the word about our Kickstarter Campaign and convince those that are on the fence to back the campaign. It seems that some of the other recent crowdfunding for similar looking print surfaces that didn't work very well are discouraging some from backing our Campaign. Our customers word is the strongest marketing tool we have so please let everyone know that we are the real deal. I've spent 3 years perfecting the stick and release properties of our Build Surfaces because I want to change the way people 3D Print and give them a great user experience. With EZ Stick every 3D Printer can have a reliable easy to use Build Surface. 

Thank you for all the support! If you have any questions, concerns or comments let us know! 

Thanks,

Brad

Over halfway there! Help us spread the word!

Hi Backers! 

Thank you all for supporting our campaign. We are well on our way to getting fully funded!

So far we have had all positive feedback, so we feel that we are on the right track. If you have any questions about the product or suggestions let us know. The most important thing that we can do right now is to get the campaign in front of people and let people know that there is a better way. But we need your help!

Please share the campaign, like, re-post, and tell everyone to help us spread the word!!

Here is a short link to the Kickstarter that you can copy and paste. http://kck.st/2oqVMmh

We developed EZ Stick to make 3D Printing easier for everyone. We are still a very small company and need your help to get EZ Stick off the ground, which is why we are on Kickstarter. In order to really improve 3D Printing, we need to get as many backers as we can. We have some stretch goals in mind. The sooner that we can reach our funding goal, the more we can offer.
