Our Pinbox 3000 campaign was fully funded on Kickstarter within a few days and we're now opening up for pre-orders with Indiegogo InDemand to give those that missed out a chance to get their own Pinbox 3000 at a discount.

We're working with a large scale cardboard box and display manufacturing company in Philadelphia. With this facility we are able to execute faster turnarounds and larger orders.

When Cardboard Teck Instantute formed in 2006, we wanted to be a resource for folks to get interested in cardboard construction, as well as an outlet for outside-the-box, interactive devices. We are so pleased to have the PinBox 3000 as our platform for expressing the potential of cardboard, inspiring makers and game designers.
We have been working on this project since January of 2015, with the help and collaboration of our Vermont community. We've been given so much support from the maker community, particularly Make Magazine and Maker Faire. We've won ribbons of merit from National Maker Faire, Bay Area Maker Faire, and World Maker Faire, for the addictive learning potential of the PinBox 3000. We've hosted numerous school workshops and play tests in our summer camps and after school programs.
We have been working incredibly hard over the last year to ensure that we will have smooth production, bringing the artwork in on time, ensuring a cohesive instruction manual, testing material quality, and meeting with consultants, designers, customers, and educators. We know you and your family will love this product.
Your contribution will help to bring more PinBox 3000 games to life, and help us transition into making our web store a great resource for long-term engagement and inspiration for our customers.
