Hey guys. This is Brandon with the Cole-Bar. Yes, it's been a ridiculous amount of time. We've had some ridiculous things happen that were simply out of our control, but we are committed to seeing it through. You joke about the perseverance, but that's really what it's about. There comes a time in everyone's life where they are challenged...and it's what you do in that situation that defines you. I made a commitment to honor the memory of my brother who inspired it, to my father who asked me to help, and to the backers who initially supported us. One of you mentioned "how hard is it to make a hammer". It's hard. Bringing anything to the market that is unique is hard. There is way more to it than most people realize. I would be more than happy to get in contact with you and answer any questions for you and your viewers. All the best!
Thanks guys. We have some good things coming up once things get back to normal for everyone. We can't do any prototyping until the main guy is able to return to his job. Thanks for your support.
You should probably update the page. "We expect our first batch of hammers in the summer and fulfillment on pre-orders to be completed by fall of 2013" it also links to a dead website.
The f117a stealth fighter/bomber began development in 1975 and was delivered to the US military for use in 1984. At that time it was the most advanced fighter/bomber in the world. Cole-Bar hammer:
For anyone who sees this a few years after publication, I looked into the Colebar Hammer, and yes, almost 2 and a half years since this video, it is STILL getting updates from the founder that it is in development, with the last update coming in early June 2022 as of this post. That is nearly 9 years of time just for research and development basically and he hasn't given up, with the abuse of their angry backers getting even worse. That is crazy.

And we'd tease him about how he could possibly be so gullible to have pre-ordered something that was literally called "The Fool and His Money," and he would retort that he'd gotten way more than his money's worth telling the story. We were all quite shocked when one day, something like a decade after the pre-order, a copy of the game actually showed up, and it was actually a decent playable game.

I'm not confident I can explain what happened well so if you want to know more, you can go and check the updates section of the Kickstarter page of Animator vs Animation, The Official card Game. There you will find a link to a forum post that explains what happened. In the end, we did still get a print-and-play version of the game, but it's money I can't get back anymore.

I’m fortunate in that everything I’ve backed so far has delivered, although I tend to be careful, avoiding things which are relatively complex and/or things like games unless the person/team has a good history and a prototype (where applicable).

This inspired me to go through my kickstarters. Everything that I've paid for on there I've gotten, and the two things that failed never actually got any money because the campaign failed. I guess I've been very lucky so far. I have backed The Last Curse, but I believe James will deliver that unless something happens to absolutely prevent him from continuing. I'm sure it will be late because of Covid-19, but that's understandable.
Middle click also does it. And yes finding this shit out changed the way I use my computer, and this shit is the type of information you don’t just find or search for
I hope you started a trend that catches on. I'd love to see other youtubers share their experience with kickstarter both positive and negative and explain why they backed it and if it was worth it.
They're still going to this day on the hammer. Apparently they're finally gonna start preproduction within the year, there's pictures of the 7th gen (!!) prototype and they've partnered with an actual manufacturer to start making them. What a journey lol.
I’m still holding out hope that Star Citizen gets a final release lol Edit: I guess there's really two sides to it. On one hand videos of the game right now look SUPER polished and incredible, on the other, it's been like 9 years and they're still in alpha with few gameplay loops. Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst. Edit: 10 years now. Still no functional MMO system. Seems to me like this game has become too complex for them to maintain (especially in an MMO environment) and it will not see a final release. :(
to be fair they are making lots of progress. everyone that nay says the game fails to realize that the tech that the game runs on didnt exist till Cloud Imperium built it.
There was a review a couple years ago in a uk bbc science magazine called focus (now science focus) for the nura headphones and they really loved them. The whole idea was they tune so you hear frequencies better that your ears aren't as good at picking up and the reviewer reckoned that actually worked. He also said the combination over ear/ in ear thing gave really good clarity in both treble and bass, as well as having good midrange.
Wow thank you so much for supporting Strike Suit Zero I purchased the game years ago and I have played it multiple times and I am significantly happy with what little funds I put to the game
Guys, did you know that on Chrome you can middle mouse click a link and it will immediately open it in a new tab without having to open the right click menu? Or, if you're on a trackpad you can click while pressing CTRL and it'll do the same thing? You can also middle mouse click a tab to close it without having to aim for the x
Idk if it works on other browsers, but on firefox if you middle click on the empty space on the tabs bar it opens a new tab, as if you clicked on the *+* sign. AND if you middle click on the *+* sign it opens a new tab right after the one in focus.
THE worst Kickstarter I backed was Pressy. A button that fits your 3.5 mm port. It should have been an easy thing to produce but for some reason they postponed the shipping so much that by the time I got mine, Chinese 1 dollar copies were abundant. The Pressy wasn't cheap either. I acrually was glad when I lost it.
star citizen is very playable, apart from the novelty of flying trough a huge galaxy there is actual gameplay to speak of, nearly everything can be bought trough in-game grinding, there's combat missions, mining, cargo hauling. putting all your in game money on the line for a big profit is actually exhilerating. in a few days the prison system will get added wich has a huge gameplay loop, and I think the battlefield-like gamemode will also be added in the coming days
I've backed kickstarters and indiegogo's most never send anything, some send some of the pledge items, and a few you get most things and a handful give you everything
The Cole-Bar Hammer is still the funniest thing. Last updated on kickstarter June 3rd, 2022 with the title, "We're back" though I can't read the post as it's for backers only. Their website is just a picture of their nonexistent product with the line "Coming 2021". This gem has recently celebrated ten years without delivering anything to anyone. Let's raise a toast to ten more
Why does a video from 2020 have better quality than the videos posted in 2022? This camera is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than the one they're using now. Holy crap.
I backed a board game on kickstarter that took 4 years, but it did come out. They ran into more production issues than they anticipated. It turned out pretty well
I love seeing this after the screwdriver has been out for a while. If Linus from 2020 watched the video they made about the LTT screwdriver he would say something like "Since when does a single screwdriver require a video and why do you need to dedicate so many years in developing a screwdriver using a mechanism from a screwdriver that already exists?"
Update on Cole-Bar: Still posting updates (latest is April of 2021, as of September 2021 when I'm writing this). Looks like they're going to need to raise more money to make it happen, as predicted.
In case anyone was interested, I pulled this from the Kickstarter page. *"1,857 backers pledged $135,250 to help bring this project to life. Last updated April 23, 2021"* And, if you follow the link to their personal website to order one, you're presented with a banner announcing it's forthcoming release in 2021...
I only ever backed one thing on Kickstarter, Harmonix's reboot of Amplitude for the PS3/4. I loved the PS2 version so much and still have it somewhere.
Monster sanctuary was is the game that I backed on Kickstarter back in like October 2018 and it just got released I really enjoyed the game but I'm glad that I was able to help somebody achieve their goal
Linus: "I actually think everything I ever backed did ultimately get delivered." ... Star Citizen? It's been nine years. It's almost two thirds of the way to matching Duke Nukem Forever's stay in development hell
@@Dundeeyouth They are a little weird at first due to the ear tips inside, but once you get used to them they are comfortable for a few hours of use at a time. I wouldn't buy them if you want to wear your headphones all day long though.
I backed Pathfinder Kingmaker and ultimately was quite happy. At launch they had some major issues but it was their first time making a game so I understood and they ended up putting in the work to fix the problems and adding a lot of free dlc and update add-ons as a sort of love letter to the fans. I was so happy with Owlcat's choices in the long run that I was happy to back Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous just recently. Kickstarter can get you some cool stuff you just need a dependable group behind the project.

Why does a video from 2020 have better quality than the videos posted in 2022? This camera is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than the one they're using now. Holy crap.
I backed a board game on kickstarter that took 4 years, but it did come out. They ran into more production issues than they anticipated. It turned out pretty well
Star Citizen any day now!
Didn't they play it in the video? I'm confused.
You can play it right now lol
I love seeing this after the screwdriver has been out for a while.
If Linus from 2020 watched the video they made about the LTT screwdriver he would say something like
"Since when does a single screwdriver require a video and why do you need to dedicate so many years in developing a screwdriver using a mechanism from a screwdriver that already exists?"
Update on Cole-Bar: Still posting updates (latest is April of 2021, as of September 2021 when I'm writing this). Looks like they're going to need to raise more money to make it happen, as predicted.
About 60% of the things I've ever backed on kickstarter turned out to be giant nothing-burgers
Bring kickfarter back!
Nuraphones are actually rly nice, a bit delicate but the sound is amazibg
I had to create a cookbook for a class in Highschool. I slacked off and did **all of it the night before**. There was like 100 recipes in there.
Ugh, this brings back the hurt I felt from Ossic X.
I backed the photonlabs lights on Kickstarter and I was one of the couple hundred who received the lights out of a couple thousand.
In case anyone was interested, I pulled this from the Kickstarter page.
*"1,857 backers pledged $135,250 to help bring this project to life.
Last updated April 23, 2021"*
And, if you follow the link to their personal website to order one, you're presented with a banner announcing it's forthcoming release in 2021...
I only ever backed one thing on Kickstarter, Harmonix's reboot of Amplitude for the PS3/4. I loved the PS2 version so much and still have it somewhere.
Regular hammer with RGB ligh
Linus:" i take your entire stock"
remember cubeworld? me too it was fun how the devs ditched the money and after 8 years he came back.
i CANT believe that Linus right click and clicks "open in new tab" and doesnt click with the mouse wheel... Who have i been getting Tech tips from!?
2 years later. Still waiting for the Colebar. It hasn't been updated in almost a year.
Colebar will be used as the crowbar in Half-Life 3.
Nice timing for the catch up binge.
thanks for reminding me I still have Cole-Bar pending ...
look how far kano's gone with the stem player
that cole bar is pretty cool I would have backed it as well for certain
3:43 One Christmas it will be "Hammer Time"...
Maybe we can get MC Hammer to deliver it to them.
Monster sanctuary was is the game that I backed on Kickstarter back in like October 2018 and it just got released I really enjoyed the game but I'm glad that I was able to help somebody achieve their goal
ALL CONTROLLER - enough said
7 days to die is actually pretty entertaining.
It's still on alpha (18) but it's really playable. You can buy it on steam for something like 20 euro
star citizen is like the hammer if it was shipped out incomplete ,but every time you went to go use the hammer it was better.
Linus: "I actually think everything I ever backed did ultimately get delivered."
... Star Citizen? It's been nine years. It's almost two thirds of the way to matching Duke Nukem Forever's stay in development hell
Nura headphones are astonishingly good
As a sound engineer the Nura are a great pair of consumer headphones !! I own and love a pair I would suggest a video on them !
I been thinking about replacing my wh1000xm2 with nuraphones all reviews are positive for the nuraphones
bluepanther96 they are great I’ve got a referral code somewhere if your interested
@@Dundeeyouth how is the comfort for u
@@Dundeeyouth They are a little weird at first due to the ear tips inside, but once you get used to them they are comfortable for a few hours of use at a time. I wouldn't buy them if you want to wear your headphones all day long though.
@@benamende5897 i wear them almost constantly... never found anything else that comfy..
right clicking to open a new window... damn he rly is old XD
They're on laptops so no wheel click, i believe
The Colebar is still not delivered, but they are still posting updates in June 2022
I backed Pathfinder Kingmaker and ultimately was quite happy. At launch they had some major issues but it was their first time making a game so I understood and they ended up putting in the work to fix the problems and adding a lot of free dlc and update add-ons as a sort of love letter to the fans. I was so happy with Owlcat's choices in the long run that I was happy to back Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous just recently. Kickstarter can get you some cool stuff you just need a dependable group behind the project.
the hammer is taking as long as Cyberpunk at this point. Impossible....
Holy shit, that Timmothy Perkins is my cousin! 😂😂
What an idiot I’m texting him now lol
