The agony and ecstasy of being a kickstarter

So I bought one of those new fangled Twine's on kickstarter way back in November, and have been (not so) patiently waiting ever since.  I had hoped that it would be here in time for this summer so I could data log temperatures in a friends basement to evaluate the space for use in storing and aging barrels of beer and or booze (what? we don't moonshine ignore that last bit).  Well the original March-ish came and went and they are now talking about August (sob), but the good news is that for the most part it doesn't strictly speaking matter if I miss this summer as measuring winter lows is just as important given how damn long our winter appears to be this year.  Still, sigh.  I hope to get it in time for some stretch of high temps here just so I know what kind of hot we can expect down there.
