Getting drawings prepped for shipping
It's December, and I'm signing drawings and getting them in the final stages of being prepped for shipping! We've also added an embossed MinutePhysics logo to each drawing and the official "number" of the video so that you know where it came from (see photos below). Here's a numbered list of my videos so you can find the one your drawing came from.
This is one last reminder to check your address in Patreon and (if you're at the Uncertainty level or above) fill out the video request forms.
Also, if you want to upgrade from Schrodinger's Cat or Rocketsheep to the Special Relativity level and get an original drawing, it's not too late! You have until Friday, Dec 6.
Thanks again for your support,
Henry

Hi. I just came upon your show in YouTube today. I noticed you started this 3 months ago, so I was wondering if are there still any drawings going at all? I can cover shipping if necessary? Thanks very much! Wondered if you had done a video on the interaction of the Giggs Bison on gravity. I had this thought that, in the future, anti gravity material could be a paint like material, rather than generated, manipulated via the HBP... Or is that claptrap?
Thanks for your support! We're sending out some new art to patrons soon, so you can get that, but at this point we're not sending out new drawings. We do have some left and I generate more with each video, so perhaps we'll send them again some time.
I've reached out to dftba because I haven't heard anything since it was shipped in December. No response from them. What should I do now?
Did you try this email? fulfillments@dftba.com
I haven’t received any notification about the delivery. How will I know when it arrives? Also, my address has changed since I joined, how should I fix that?
Sorry to hear that! Please reach out to dftba customer support, they will be able to help.
I haven’t received any notification on how it’s being sent or if it has been sent. How should I proceed?
Sorry to hear that! Please reach out to dftba customer support, they will be able to help.
Hey Henry. UPS tracking (DFTBA handed the item to them) hasn’t updated since Dec 19. What’s the escalation path to get things moving ?
Sorry to hear that! Reach out to dftba customer support, they will be able to help.
Hey Henry, I have not received any dispatch notification or received anything about this, despite my address being correct. Could you share an update on my drawing please? Thanks!
FYI I filled out the form with a video request as I was the right tier at the time!
DFTBA who handles shipping say that they have lost the package, as it still hasn’t arrived, it hasn’t been returned to them and the tracking code has been standing still since December 19th. But that I don’t need to worry, as they will re-ship the item if I authorise re-shipping. How can they re-ship a unique original hand drawn piece of art used in a video? Wouldn’t I need to pick another one if the one I picked already has been shipped and lost? They say that they have been in contact with you. I don’t understand how there can be multiple copies of the same drawing. It seems really sketchy to me how DFTBA very fast talk about re-shipping an item, as if it is a mass produced T-shirt. Sorry for mentioning this here, I didn’t see a way to DM you on Patreon.
Hi there - DFTBA has extra original drawings (I did not send all of them out), so they will send you a new drawing which will also be unique, but a different one from the one that was lost in the mail...
I totally lack reading comprehension and misread which tier I needed to be to receive an original drawing ;; honoured to be a supporter anyway, thanks for all these years of work!
Still sending out stragglers... if you update your tier we can send one out.
It seems like I can't add a shipping address on my membership anymore because I only have the free membership at the moment. Would it work if I just DM you my shipping address?
Yes.
I got a request for import tax documentation. I tried uploading a screenshot of the patreon receipt but apparently thats not good enough. Anyone have any advice on what kind of documentation is sufficient the custom authorities for this(shipping to norway)
You might try reaching out to DFTBA customer support? Or do you need some sort of note from us saying it's worth nothing/$10000000/etc?
I have been a member since October and I just realized that I had my shipping address in my profile but I might not have had my shipping address in my membership? I didn't realize that these were two different things. Is there anything I can do to fix this and can I still get a drawing? Thank you for the help and the videos! Your videos were a big reason why I studied math and physics.
Yes, looks like your address was previously missing, I see it now. We'll get one sent to you.
This is amazing I also found the video took just a bit they look amazing honored to be a part of the project!
I received your mail and I just pulled up the episode it's from: 189 - Are University Admissions Biased? | Simpson's Paradox Part 2. Thank you so much.
Just got the drawings in the mail and just wanted to thank you again gor sharing this with your fans. For poeple who have yet to receive it I was delivered yo Amsterdam and just got a notification to pick it up at from the post office
I haven't noticed a drawing arrive in the mail and have yet to see an email about it. Is there still some drawings that have yet to be shipped?
I haven't received mine either. Does anyone know if there's shipping info?
Thanks for the drawings! The note I received said to look out for another drawing. Anyone else got that too? What's that about?
I received a drawing from the episode about entropy and the arrow of time. Voiced over by none other than Sean Carroll. As a multiverse aficionado obsessed with time, this is truly a magnificent gift. Thank you so much Henry! Also how are things going? I just started a new job and am happy to help support the channel :)
Awesome! I'm working hard on upcoming videos, happy to have whatever support you're willing to provide.
Got mine. Graph from 'Twins Paradox Primer' Love it! Thank you so much.
Out of curiosity my subscription expired on the 17th and I’ve not noticed any email about a shipment. Would shipments in the US receive a email with a tracking number? If my subscription expired before it they were shipped would I still be considered for one?
Yours should have shipped, you should have received a tracking email (check spam?) from DFTBA.
I never received a tracking number and still don't have mine. Maybe still waiting to process?
Yours should have shipped, you should have received a tracking email (check spam?) from DFTBA. Or reach out to dftba customer support.
Hi! I live in USA are there any left for shipping.
Diddo. I also live in the US and have not received shipping or tracking info.
Received mine in the UK this morning, thanks! Annoyingly though the postie ignored the giant "DO NOT BEND" sticker on the envelope and put a massive crease down the middle of everything 😔
I'm so sorry to hear that! If you would like, reach out to dftba customer support, they may be able to help.
Thanks! Are there still any remaining to ship? I haven't received mine yet
Are you from India? I got my shipping email about 10 days back. But it still hasn't reached India yet.
I got mine today, it's from the Simpson's paradox video
I just got my drawings and a hand written note! Thank you so much, I truly appreciate all of the time and effort you put into this. The drawings did not have an episode number, however I am looking forward to rewatching everything and finding out!
I thought mine didnt have a number but it was written on the back of the drawing! Hopefully yours is as well
Hi I subscribed for one month after you posted the announcement video. Since I did not renew I worry you may have lost access to my shipping information. Will I still be receiving a drawing?
They are shipping very very soon. Unfortunately there was a delay with the fulfillment/shipping that was outside of our control - you should receive a notice that things shipped and a tracking number when they are actually on the way. Thanks for your patience.
Thanks for doing this Henry, excited to see which drawing you selected!
I have to wonder how many are being given away, and how many you'll have left after this
I’ve been watching your videos since I was in college! Your videos made it so that I finally could understand what my professors were trying to teach me, but didn’t quite have the same creativity as you to express those ideas. Thank you for helping me learn and appreciate the mechanics of our world. Now that I am making some adult money, I am more than happy to support you!!
I’m so excited! I’ve been watching your videos for years and this is getting framed and going in my office
At the risk of sounding disingenuous but in fact just poor: if I do not renew my membership on dec 6th, will i still receive my drawing?
Yes, I will 100% honor your support for the month, and hope I can earn some sort of ongoing support at some point once you have the resources!
Nice touch with the embossment. Thanks Henry!
