    On Monday, I ordered three C-Beam Linear Actuator Bundles without motors since I already have them. I checked the status of order and it still said "Awaiting Fulfillment". What happened to my order?

    Hello Jeff. We will forward your request to the OpenBuilds Part Store so they can provide details. You can expect to receive an email directly from them.

    Thanks,
    TrishC

    I thought that the store ran out of stepper motors and not C-Beam Actuators Bundles but I found out that all of the bundles will be shipping on or after March 1st. Why? I tried to find linear actuators on Amazon but they don't have what you have.

    Just guessing but all this may be due to an anti-backlash nut block shortage. Everything that uses them is on hold until March 1.

    Should be fine for a 3D printer but not a good idea on a router system. Back forces from the cutting head could overpower the spring.

    An astute observation Rick 2.0. ;) The Anti-Backlash Nut Blocks have been restocked and we are now ahead of schedule on shipping.

    Jeff - the Part Store will be reaching out to you shortly with additional information on your order.
    Thank you so much for your support!

    Trish, Thank you very much. I wish that you use the Star Trek teleporter to beam the package to me.

    ....I wonder if people remember the good ol' days of mail order before the internet. You get a catalog....fill out the order form with a pen.....mail in your check and wait 6 to 8 weeks for your order. How times have changed.
