Congrats on the Cintree!

I reckon that first pic is of 3D printed pre-production mockups? I'm a dinosaur when it comes to technology, but seeing that design process is fascinating.

Indeed they are. It was fun to see their process, and speak with a few individuals from the design team to hear all the ins and outs.
