@_jacksmith Hey Jack, maybe I can clarify for you. Each key gets put into a cover. Those covers then snap together magnetically and then rotate around a single point like many of the other key organizers. The beauty in this system is that they go together really easily, so you can take out a key, reorder your keys, leave a key on the fridge or even a light switch. With the other key systems, it can be a pain to add or remove a key.
As for HOW the magnets nest, there is a male/female profile so they securely lock into one another but are allowed to rotate freely. Here's a really good video demonstrating them: https://youtu.be/lxjg10PcwsI Since this video, we've actually reinforced the nesting so it's even stronger now.
@nate_justiss thanks. this video makes things a lot clearer. it looks awesome. will prob buy
Yeah, his videos are always so good at showing the features of a product. Glad that cleared things up and happy to hear you think it might be useful! If you do end up purchasing, I would love to hear your feedback.
@anna_0x Glad you like them, Anna! We'll most likely ship from the US to US backers and from Hong Kong to any other location.
@nate_justiss Cool! I'm asking to see if I'd need to pay any import fees... I think you don't pay any for imports from HK to the EU, right? I bought a bag from the US and had to pay more than double the price in the end because of the customs :) How much does shipping cost?
Hi and welcome to my first Product Hunt launch for my 9th successful Kickstarter!
I'm Nate, the Product Designer of Distil Union, an independent design studio co-founded with my partner Lindsay who appreciates a good pun.
❓WHAT IS FERRIS:
The Ferris Collection includes a key organizer in two formats (KeyLoop and KeyFolio), a modular ModWallet, and a wall-mounted ModStation. It's a magnetic lifehack for the things we carry every day! The modular system lets you:
+ customize your carry
+ easily share your keys
+ stay organized at home
🧲WHAT FERRIS DOES:
• The KeyLoop and KeyFolio cover your keys with thick, full-grain leather in a stitchless, modern profile. KeyMods enable your keys to instantly stack, reconfigure and share without the need for tools. (🙌THIS)
• The ModWallet lets you customize to accommodate the contents you need– even a couple of keys or KeyMod accessories like USB Drive and MultiTool.
• Ferris components magnetically mount to the fridge, a light switch, and Ferris ModStation. This way, rarely used items can be stored neatly (instead of lost in the junk drawer).
• The ModStation streamlines your out-the-door routine by gathering your keys, wallet, sunglasses (if you have our MagLocks), and phone + charging cables. It's great for the entry-way, desk or bedside– anywhere cutting clutter will help you stay organized and reduce the likelihood of lost items.
🤷♀️🤷♂️WHY WE'RE MAKING IT:
Honestly, we set out to create a better key organizer– and arrived at a comprehensive "everyday carry" system that saves you time and space. Giving your keys magnetic functionality unlocks their potential and sets Ferris apart from all other key-carrying solutions. 🏆 In fact, Ferris is a finalist in this year's Carryology CARRY AWARDS in the "Best Accessory" category!
🚀Our business is proudly fueled by crowd-funding:
This is our 9th Kickstarter, and you can rest assured we will deliver a fully considered product line in September, right on schedule.
Lindsay and I are excited to be coming to you from Hong Kong where we've been working to speed the development of this and future products 😉
We hope you find Ferris inspiring and truly useful, we're welcoming your questions and feedback– and hopefully your support for the campaign which ends 🔜 MONDAY night June 24th: http://bit.ly/Ferris-on-PH
//Please forgive gaps in our replies due to the Hong Kong time difference!
@joseph_santoro Thanks! It's pretty fun to use... something I never thought I'd say about a keychain... Not that I'm biased or anything. :)
