What exactly offends you about the name? I could easily go with Luke's Cheater, people will accept that easy enough. I was impressed with it's speed when I tested it the fist time in a marker, hence the play on the word Cheetah, is it the "a" that bothers you?

I want you to succeed. I want you to keep making awesome stuff.

I know you've got creative capacity, use it and come up with an original name. Seriously.

[luke]

Can't please them all...

[Fred]

Hey guys I wanna tell you about this awesome new watch I got, its called a Rolox, totally original name.

Machined the V11 prototype this morning. Ran 1500 psi threw it before I ran out of air, should have my shoebox by the end of the week.
It works pretty good but I think there's an issue in the machining that needs addressed, I hope the design is good though.



All the parts were pushed, pulled, tugged and massaged in order to generate the space I needed for changes, I'm trying a ram new design too.



Came up with a name, didn't want to borrow from Zap so..... It's not a Cheater it's a Cheatah! Lame or cleaver I think it fits.
I designed a Cheetah head too but it's much to small for any detail so I nixed it...

actually got to thinking it would be neat to have a reg design that would allow you to drop it on the fly to 40 psi, might be a cool gimmick.

agree, that would be a pretty cool gimmick!

[yellowmitten]

Yup both of mine do that, I hope I ge another one with your valve soon

[luke]

Just curious, do you guys see the RT affect using the MPA3/MSV2 setup? Mine hit it with 40 psi input and I've seen it in every prototype I've tested.

It's not a problem, just turn the pressure up to 50 psi and it goes away. I'm sure people would even use it on occasion for fun, actually got to thinking it would be neat to have a reg design that would allow you to drop it on the fly to 40 psi, might be a cool gimmick.

thanks. I'll susbcribe to this thread then and will be following/stalking it!
Just curious: any idea as to when production will start (aprox.) in order to make that pmt asap when it becomes relevant to do so?

Impossible to tell at this point, we need a working model worthy of going to production first.

It's getting close is the only accurate answer.

[flampaint]

No lists, no preorder. I'll be making 25, prepayments when production starts will be accepted for anyone that wants to secure one before they're completed...

I'll take one and maybe a second one. Do I need to sign up somewhere for this or will posting my interest here suffice?
Awesome job by the way! IMHO it's people and products like this that keep this community so alive

[luke]

When I get it right or at least believe so, I'll try to do a little video.

The (re)programing on this takes up an entire day, I'm completely done fooling with this project already! lol.
