How long do you think anodizing should take?

Dansim read the dang webpage then rethink your post...

For the prices he charges, you should be happy with a 20 week turn-around time. He is incredibly cheap, especially compared to some professional companies. Be happy.

If you order from there, get something basic. If you get a tri fade yellow-purple-acidwash red its going to take forever.

Dude you must have shipped it out right after texball? Damn thats a lot of no playing.

[Aliens-8-MyDad]

yep... shipped it way back in march... i dont think a 2 color splash job is THAT difficult i mean it could be fade and splash or something.

[Thermus]

Its not the type of job, its the amount of guns he gets that need the same ano. He could get only 1 request for a yellow single color for 8 months and still not do it because he only does bulk annos to save money, and charge less.

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

anodizing should take 1 week if you shell out enough money.
11 weeks, well then you have a very big problem. Either they accidently melted away the aluminum or they anodized ur gun the wrong color...and there have been cases when anodizing companies make your markers magically disappear

I shipped a matrix to him once for a simple two color fade he was doing a batch deal on. After 3 months of no contact he finally told me my marker was ready except for a few pieces that needed to be done again. I figured that was cool, he was making sure everything was right. After another month I heard nothing until finally he returned my Matrix with only a single color on it and missing parts. This is after he told me the marker was complete except for a few pieces. So not only did he lie he lost parts.

I have heard both good and bad things about him on several sites. All I can say is good luck. My personal experience was all bad.

On the flip side I sent my EMag to A+Annodizing on a Thursday and got it back the next Friday and everything looked amazing. Check it out here http://www.automags.org/forums/showt...&page=45&pp=30

I sold it recently and I am currently in the process of building another.

He just offered to do some simple work

for me in a thread I started looking for a machinist. Guess I won't be taking him up on that offer.

[Chronobreak]

wolf has no dates for a reason he gets things back as soon as the annodizers give it to him its not like he has it sitting in a shop and is alughing about u

DUELIST that hjappened a long time ago LET IT GO u dont need to post that bs everytime u hear whitewolfs name.

youl have your marker when he has it so until then i think this thread should be deleted...................

[Nitroduck]

Well , i heard the white wolf guy is a child molester and that's why his stuff takes so long due to the court process.

J/k , Jim's a good guy , he tells everyone that the stuff will take time, maybe forever , but that don't mean its a bad deal , IMO he has the cheapest single color prices ever. Ano is a tough thing to do , to do it commercially you have to have EPA approval and such. Last time i checked WW delt with PK selective mainly on thier batches and thats what takes the time.

and he is an excelent machinist and he actualy does that hiumself as where anno is shipped of to somone else the return on machininins is/should be ALOT faster

Okay question here, if it does take forever it means its a bad deal. After reading everyones reply i still think it is unacceptable for that long of a wait no matter what batch. I would try to keep the customer happy and well it doesn't sound like he tries hard but i don't know him so i wouldn't know. But if you drop your car off to get some detailing and it takes them 11 weeks i would be super pissed, same excuse on a marker because thats not paintballing for 11 weeks which in my opinion is a lot.

[Tunaman]

Well. I was under the impression that he did his own annoing. I quess not then. Anymore than 3-4 weeks gets silly. Shoulda called me...
