No doubt some of you out there ordered the 25th anniversary Woodsmith Squares as I did. Although they were supposed to be done "in time for Father's Day", they are just a little bit behind schedule. ;)
I talked to Woodsmith today, and they confirmed that the initial order was "overwhelming". They also confirmed that they had begun shipping orders, but then dropped the bad news...some of the squares that had been shipped were, well, not square! :eek:
They have issued a recall on all of the orginal shipments, and are going to correct the problem and then reship. I joked with her that I might get my squares by Christmas, but she did not seem amused.
So...I think there will be a letter or postcard to each person that ordered explaining the situation, but the bottom line is that you shouldn't expect to see your squares anytime soon. I told her I was not in any hurry, but would like to get them someday.
