im sure its been said but whats going on with the extras?
Well, the laser engraver has long since gone out of business, and even if he hadn't, I'm so damned broke, I couldn't pay him to do the work anyway.Originally Posted by jade_monkey07
The eye covers are included, but they're raw. The eye components are included for bolt-ons, but they're your responsibility to put together and install in the gun.
These eye covers will only work with ULE bodies, so the Karta/Dallara guys are going to have to live with the LVL X bolts like the E/XMag guys do.
I'm sorry, but I cannot afford to replace a Karta if things go poorly. It's just not worth the risk to the body IMO, and the eye covers won't work with them anyway.
Since the SULE rails weren't included with the full markers like I'd planned, they are not really in any shape to do an eye install on (a lot of machine work to the rail would be required), so they will go out with the eye parts included, but not installed.
If/When I do some SULE rails to sell, I will attempt to cut enough extra to give one to every guy who ordered a full marker. Assuming I have the funds to spend on material and the time to do it. I cannot promise these rails will be delivered in a timely (HA!) fashion, so I am loath to mention them at all, but they were promised to the full marker guys, and I had to go with stock rails instead, so they are owed them if at all possible.
If/When I get the SULE rails done for the full marker guys, I will gladly install the new rail and the eyes on their marker for them.
I figured it better to deliver a 95% product in a few weeks than to extend the wait indefinitely again. At least you can be using your marker while you wait on the rails and eyes.
That's what I've got.
It's not exactly what I promised, but it's the best I can do in my current situation.

UPDATE:
I worked on the Ripper Project some more today
On the left you can see the remaining wire harnesses that are "extra" beyond the pre-order gun orders. The only things missing from these harnesses on the left are LEDs and Solenoids.
The ones on the right are the completed ones for the pre-order guns.
There are (5) "extra" upper boards (one is not in the picture) that I soldered power switches to for parts.
Hoping to finish up this project soon!
List of things that have been done:
Pre-Order electronics are good to go
I completed 15 harnesses with LEDs
I completed 15 harnesses with solenoids
All harnesses have power switches
All harnesses have daughter boards
All harnesses have battery snaps
All harnesses have capacitors
All harnesses have trigger switches

Dude, is your stomach feeling a little "Sensitive" after having worked on this project? Well, relax. Everyone thinks you are doing a great job. Yes, some are salivating more than others, but that is because we never got in on the preorder. Keep plugging away. Your work looks top notch.
Out-freakin-standing.
You fished my *** out of the frozen river on this one man, and I appreciate it greatly.

Nah,.. the Ripper project has had its fair share of delays on my end. Mostly due to my winter schedule with my 6 month old here,.. she changes everything,.. but for the better!
Were sooooooooo close,..... I figure the LEDs will be it. The solenoids take no time to do,. and I already stripped the wires for them.
Moving Forward!

If I get my 2009 PTP MicroMag body and my Logic EM Ripper in the same year
I will be a very very happy fat guy
UPDATE
Well,... we are at the end.... finally!
I had some time yesterday to sit down and bang out all the LEDs needed.
Only thing I have to do is program the boards to the correct settings.

such great news
I've been following this since the beginning and it's awesome to hear that it is finally finished. Good job to everyone involved!
Hey, look at that! It's Santa!
UPDATE
Tomorrow is the day guys.
I have boxed up all the electronics and have the entire assembly from my end ready to ship back to Ryan.
We are still moving forward,... this should be the last hurdle!

Cant wait to see Papa Smurfs when they are complete.
Huzzah!!!!Originally Posted by p8ntbal4me
I dont think I have to tell you that this makes me very happy.
So now all that's left is assembly and shipment?
Yes, unless I get hit by a bus or something.Originally Posted by Papa_Smurf
Even that would just be a delay, as I made arrangements long ago that these would be finished by others in the case of my untimely demise.
I wouldn't leave you guys hanging, even if I croaked it.
UPDATE
Package has shipped with confirmation and insurance!

So I guess you guys are about ready to do another run of these right? Congradulations for staying with it to the end and I'm sure everyone who stuck it out are going to be happy with the end result.I for one would like to see a thread featuring all of these frames on guns...with videos as well.
Beat me to it.Originally Posted by p8ntbal4me
LOL
I should outsource the updates to you as well.

I can't wait,
Hang in there guys. I got three of the bolt-ons assembled, and realized I had no idea how to run these new boards. lol So I stopped to read the manual.
That was last weekend.
I've been up to my eyeballs in the shop, trying to eek out enough cash on piddly little projects to keep the bankers at bay for another month, so I haven't touched them again since.
They're all scattered out though, so I can't help but look at them, and I will get back on them as soon as I can. It's after 7pm and I just got back from the shop. I'm wiped, and it's been like that all week.
At any rate, they're going together rather well, and I think this is all going to shake out in a favorable manner.
Now, what I need is for all of you guys that have a spot in this deal to PM me your real name and your shipping address, so I don't send one of these things to a vacant lot or something.
I don't even want to contemplate something like that, talk about a crappy ending. . . . .
Anyway, I don't want that to happen, so make sure you PM me. If you include an email address, I will make sure you get tracking info when your stuff ships.

I have three bolt-on frames 90% assembled (just need to put a battery in them and make sure the electronics work right), and another about half way done.
Going_Home's marker is next after those.
I've been thrashing on odd jobs to keep the bankers at bay, so these haven't gotten a lot of attention in the past couple of weeks.
The delay is entirely my fault, but I've gotta keep the shop out of hock, or I won't have any place to work on them anyway.
Hang in there guys, I'm chipping away at them slowly but surely.
