That is very encouraging to know, thank you.

Contact John Member in here 25901JFM, he got his overdue Nelevator.
Another house move despite "never again" has given me a second floor layout so Geominster Mainline & Heritage Line will be modified and enlarged with siding storage.

My Facebook Diary is Geominster if anyone wants to view it please ask, it is a private group requiring acceptance, thanks.

This then is my third version modified which has been improved from previous efforts and lessons learned.

Geominster was my first project which has now been dismantled. Having learnt so much from  previous Geominster projects this is the latest one.

Latest Youtube video is here.

Not N but check out the elevator at the start of this vid :D   It behaves more like a rotisserie with layers moving across the top and bottom too!

That's a proper paternoster lift, which is what I originally thought the Nelevator was going to be.  Until a year ago I was still hoping that the Nelevator would be a viable solution for my attic layout, but I'm now assuming that it's dead in the water as a product?

I think the way the Nevelator works is better than a Paternoster though - it enables you to have one 'stack' facing each way.

It would be a braver man than I who gave them any money right now, even if not definitively dead.

I've submitted a message to them on their contact form and through email to see if we can get an update.  It would be good to hear something!

I sold mine as it did not fit the new location but I do have contact numbers if required.

I have an unused 6' nelevator that my plans have changed for so might be interested to sell if anyone wants to PM me for more details.

Messaged them three weeks ago with a query and no reply as yet so I'm guessing they are defunct ?

Thanks for the updates everyone. Given that it's a slightly complicated bit of kit you'd want to know that there was backup in the form of spares/servicing/help desk etc. So, even if they are still going in a residual way, the fact that they don't respond to communications would make me wary of buying one new or used.

Ah well, back to the helix & stacked baseboards idea.

Go on their website and click on the blog tab. Last blog was 3 yrs ago but if you go to comments you will see people have had replies. I asked one and received a reply fairly quick.
