The Nomad From Morwood
- Thread starter Dan Morrison
- Start date
I'm about to throw in the towel with this batch 2 Nomad II. I've been getting told that the finish line is "right around the corner" since early 2022, with nothing to show for it since then. How do we know that this time is actually the time?
I'm pretty certain we will not see Nomads this year and are this point I'm starting to doubt if these Nomads exist at all. This is all very frustrating.

I see no point in canceling a batch 2 order at this point unless you absolutely need the money ASAP.
If you're that mad about it, could always just resell the device for literal thousands, as other have already done; I feel like that's more of an f you to Dan than canceling.
On the other hand, I also think that Dan should auction off any cancelled device himself to the highest bidder.

Really? Thousands? I kind of hate that, it seems like cutting the line to me, just buying your way out of the wait. I’m not interested in saying fu to Dan. He does amazing work, which is why we got ourselves into this predicament in the first place. I’m just wondering how long it’ll take for the bad taste in my mouth to go away. I don’t think it’ll be as soon as I get ol’ number 42.
I'm not entirely convinced the batch 2 Nomads exist at all at this point if I'm being honest. We need to be thrown some kind of bone soon... A family photo, even if some units are not entirely finished, would go a long way in keeping us waiting patiently. That's all I'm asking for, because right now, I can't be sure that my Nomad is ever going to ship.
I'll try to wait it out until March, but after that, if it's still radio silence, I'll probably ask for a refund rather than wait until I'm 6 ft underground before receiving this vape.

Dan just sent another Batch II update. Still claims these will ship at the end of March. Previously promised photo update not ready yet...

I’m sorry but I can’t take these seriously anymore. If and when it happens. I’m wondering if he’s stopped taking orders for stems, accessories etc until these are finished. It would be nice if he did.

Dammit! I saw the email in my inbox and was saving it for later expecting the album to be a part of it.

What was the timeframe?
Does anyone know what wood type this is? Looking to put an order in with Alan on a GTR and I kinda like this alot:
Thanks!

The button in the photo was a mock-up, based on what I thought the actual button would look like. I messed up and forgot to change out the button in this photo for the actual. Once I finished cutting and polishing the fossilized dinosaur bone, it came out quite a lot different than I had...

It seems to me that you are able to recognize any Nomad around

Oh wow that's beautiful! Did you just submit the drawings and engraving in your commision to the etsy store?@Electrofever
Well, I think the level of my obsession is no longer to be demonstrated...
But I simply used the search function by username and then searched in these few messages.
however, I had already exchanged with this user in the past... and... I am serious when I say that I know this thread by heart...
anyway... speaking of obsession... I have a new jewel to present to you
I just got Dan's permission today to share photos.
4 out of 6 logos belong to him and the sketch engraved on the leather is his too.
but it is obviously not Dan's work.
This is where it is.
i already had a tray from him for 2 years and I used it every day. I went up a size (I don't know if I did it right yet) but I have a great design!
I'm really happy with the result! I literally love my old tray, so it takes me a little while to get to know this one... but it's so cool to put my accessories and vape on Dan's drawings... with annotations!
yeah I know... I'm crazy...
anyway, here's the board in question
A last one.

yes, yes you submit the designs to him via the site, you discuss the details with him and then you validate. beforehand you choose the wood and the color of the leather (light colors work better). it is better to reconfirm the wood...

Anyone from batch 2 got an update since they're meant to be shipping by this month? I ask as according to the EE discord the next batch of toads is shipping late April and the email us batch 3ers got at the start of this year said that no toads are being worked on til batch 2 is done. Seems a pretty redundant question given noones posted about it here, but if I don't ask I don't know etc.
