Crafted With Pride - 3rd Edition Production Update 6/2/26

We completed the book and delivered it to our printer in early May. We had planned to go to print immediately however we ran into two issues with our printing partner. Due to some design changes we made in this edition, we were informed that the book would need to be printed on larger format paper at a cost increase of 15% (yikes!). In addition, this larger sized paper was on backorder all month. We corresponded with multiple paper suppliers and printers in the Northeast to explore our options but ultimately had no other feasible alternatives. So we're moving forward with our printer in New Hampshire and will be eating the extra costs. Making things in the USA ain't easy folks! 

The book is currently slated to go into production as soon as our paper arrives in the next two weeks. We are checking in with the printer daily for any additional estimates on timing and currently we're expecting the books will be ready later in June. When the exact pickup date is known, we'll update it here. Once the books are ready for us we will be packing and shipping all pre-orders within 1-2 days. If all goes to plan you'll have them in time for your July 4th vacation.

To those that have pre-ordered the book, please believe they will be in the mail as soon as humanly possible. We understand that this project is well behind schedule and are sincerely apologetic about the delay. Our desire is to deliver the best product possible made here in the USA and we are confident you will be satisfied with the final product. We are accessible to answer and questions or concerns via our Contact form on the site or at @craftedwithpride. Thanks again for your patience!
