Completed the front end of the website overhaul and have activated the e- transfer module as a payment system. Our hosting company sure did end up making a technical mess for us to clean up and address. We are now selling the Arrow metal coin as our first issue in our new studio and the mintage is limited to 50 coins.

A number of collectors who attempted to place an order through our payment gateway ended up not having their payment go through because of our website linkages to PayPal was disabled and we were unaware of that error. For that we apologise. We have begun to go through each of the orders on the back end to cross check and eliminate many, many, failed order due to this technical glitch. Needless to say, now that we have completed the task of building our new mint, and once every element of the eCommerce systems have been re-established, this will never happen again.

Now let’s get to the backlog of orders. Once we complete this task we will finally begin to complete all outstanding orders for all coins that are overdue. Every customer of ours who have been patient with us, has been outstanding in their patience and we look forward to getting these minted as soon as possible for you. As of this moment, we do not have any ETA on when that process will commence, but we expect in the next few weeks.

If you have any questions, comments or would like to communicate with us, please do not hesitate to contact us through our Contact Us page…which is now functional again. All these errors on the website have been an embarrassment for us, but we are definitely trying as hard as we can to restore production as soon as possible. Rest assured, those collectors have our immense respect and we will do something to make this unreasonably long delay up to them somehow. We value each and every one of you and we aim to make it up to you all.

Cheers.

Hi everyone! We are almost ready to resume fabrication and sales. If you would like to read an update as to what we have had to endure in order to keep this dream alive, you can read an update below by clicking the picture below. Please stay inspired, as Beaverworks is almost ready to get moving again.

Building a mint from scratch is arguably one of the single most difficult challenges one can ever embark upon. It’s taken over 5 years and some 18000 hours of time, energy and accumulating over $200 000.00 of personal debt in order to keep ones word of honour to the Royal Canadian Air Force and her members.

We will be launching with the sale of the Arrow Metal coins shortly. We have for the time being, deactivated our entire catalogue for now so we can focus in on producing that as our first rollout of our coins, test our production pipeline and dial in this monster of a system we have built. To those who have been patiently waiting for their order to be processed, have no fear, we will get to them. You are in the cue and rest assured, we will clear that production cue as soon as possible. We have nearly completed the comprehensive website update and the final component is the connection to the ecommerce payment processors and the back end accounting system. We would like to extend our gratitude to the Royal Canadian Air Force Association for their patience and outstanding support and patience with us as we complete these last few steps. Once the website has been completed with its updating phase, we will begin moving onto the next phase which is the precious metal processing to fabricate the coins and process all outstanding orders. We will not abandon anyone who has demonstrated good faith in trusting us. You have our word. Granted, its taken an incredibly long time to arrive here, but we are here and pressing forward. As time goes on and our systems get dialed in, we will only get faster and better.

We have also had some immense challenges with correctly calibrating our website contact form systems. This is a wordpress-based website and we try to also adhere to a high-speed turn around time with our communications as a point of demonstrating respect to all those who contact us. We apologise for the technical issue which was not discovered until many months passed along with some major eCommerce payment processor issues. We are methodically going through each aspect of this website and retooling everything to ensure its all brought back into high performing order. We apologise for any inconvenience this caused. We are addressing it so it never will ever happen again.

Stay tuned, stay inspired. We are launching in the coming few days.
