We hit 1500 (Patreon)

We hit our maximum goal from the start of the show!  So now it's time to review and update.

First:  Thank you all for the huge support!  The show would literally be impossible without you.  Thanks to patrons we can afford things like:

Ammunition

Gas

Super necessary team lunch and drinks on 8 hour shoots

Cheap hotels (travel for show)

Reloading dies and components

Shipping for loaners

Tons of reference material

Top Ramen

Government minimum insurance for Othais probably sometimes

Second: Moving the Goal Posts!  But seriously we did move them.  On review the $500 cost per 2 episodes was insane.  It did not account lots of little incidentals we missed when planning the show.  This has been a massive learning experience.

So the old goals are now more in line with what the show takes today so check them out.  That said, we're well above black now and into a range where we can take a slow month to save, and then do something like travel to Springfield (which we cleared half of what we need from in one trip last week)  

The new goal is to let Othais get at least a minimal paycheck.  If we meet the next goal we estimate we can pay him $2 an hour (minus the time he spends handling questions, comments, emails, and planning)
