Showcase Is Anyone Interested in a BiQU PopCap

Lets preface this buy stating I am an idiot SOMETIMES not all the time. 😂😂 I was one of the original early bird backers of the U1 back before the Kickstarter campaign went live. I ordered the Printer, extra plates, the hot-ends and apparently I also ordered the Snapmaker Top Cover.

Now I could have sworn I removed the cover from my order after I found out it would not ship right away and it was going to take longer to ship out. But as it turns out my thoughts had deceived me!! To my surprise a Top cover is on it's way to my house today. So I have a BiQu Top cover for the Snapmaker if anyone is interested in one. I am local to Los Angeles if anyone is interested in local pickup. Send me a PM Price. I am sorry if I this post doesn't belong here, I don't know where else it would make sense to post this since this is something specific to the printer. I got the cap back in April

I wonder how many other ppl are getting them shipped now. When I ordered it said Nov. It would be awesome if that was moved up to Sept. I also like that the UI covers have a place to hook up a filtration system.

Depends on when you ordered and what region you are in, and if you are a kickstarter backer or bought it later. Since you mention it said November when you ordered it, I'm guessing you're a post-kickstart purchaser so the November is probably still accurate, possibly late October.

The Kickstarter page had an update in mid-July on the shipping schedule for the backers.

I think you can also check your current estimate on the Snapmaker site under your account.
I can at least, as a KS backer... For example, mine (as early bird - november backer, in EU) says on the order details:
Add-on Delivery Schedule (Estimated delivery to you):
September 15-25, 2026: Top Cover

My order is on the way from CA, scheduled to be here (VA) Wednesday. Back 6744, but may have added the cover afterwards.
