Launch Date Update

As most of you would have noticed, there has been a delay in the IKONIKAR launch. While this has been disappointing, we do believe it's for the best. In the ramp-up Tesla Model 3 production, Elon Musk spoke about "production hell", and it feels like an appropriate description of the IKONIKAR situation.

Our initial approach to outsource the manufacture of our metal parts has proven problematic, and therefore we have make the decision to bring all facets of production in-house. Currently we are nearing the end of the manufacture of our casts and the machines that will use those casts. This means that, barring packaging, all elements of IKONIKAR production will be handled under one roof, in Randfontein, Gauteng, South Africa.

We are aiming for full-scale production to start during late November/early December, and will keep you up to date on time schedules.
