Logic Ripper EM - The Electro Solution - PreOrder

[CoolHand]

update?

I'm working on lining up ano for the seven complete markers right now.

It took near a week for GBA to get back to me, and now I've been near a week getting back to them.

Too much going on at the moment I'm afraid.

It's moving, albeit at a snails pace.

Not rubbing anything in, that just shows the extreme dedication you have put into this awesome project. Most people would have probably bailed by now, but you have not


so.... keep diggin bud

I've got ano arranged with GBA, but I need to wait another couple of weeks so I can have another $1000 to spare without putting myself in a bind.

Sorry guys, but I gotta pace my expenditures like anyone else does.

On the board front, Goldie has informed me that the boards he sold me originally, won't actually do what I need them to. That means I have to wait for his new universal boards to be finished.

He said it wouldn't be too long a wait, but considering how long it took him diagnose and finally decide the originals wouldn't work, that could mean two months, or two years.

I'm going to wait them out until there's nothing else to do except install the boards, and then we'll revisit this.

Sorry I don't have better news, but at least it's some news.

Once we are done CoolHand you will have pics to post to your viewers. This maybe the longest running thread on AO.

any updates on this.... anxiously waiting

I'm going to move forward with ano next week.

I'll package up everything this weekend and get it headed for GBA the first of next week.

They're going to take them all at once, and try to turn them around in just a few weeks.

Hopefully I'll have pictars and good news to post before the end of August.



EDIT:

I'm still waiting on Goldie for the boards, and I haven't heard a peep from him in more than a month.

If I can rattle his cage and get any useful information, I'll post it.

That is all.

Glad to see this amazing project is still alive, I just went through the thread (been away from AO for a couple years almost) and saw the pics of batch #1 after anno, they look fantastic.

Keep on trucking Coolhand

Ryan whatever you do DONT look at this thread .

Warwitch sent his Viking and looks like Gruntbull may have destroyed it.

Just for the record, Jared at DC and I spoke on this particular marker, after looking at the machine work code, HE agreed it was tooooo shallow, and didnt leave enough for ano strip and re-ano... DC and us took care of the customer, and if you look at his other post there and everywhere else a Viking can be posted he speaks of the pleasantness of the work. As well as the companies that did it willing to MAKE THINGS RIGHT rather than roll under a rock.

IF something is machined to .010 wall to wall you will get issues like that seen, stripping old ano removes material. Luckily you have RAW unfinished parts, no issue should come of it in the light etch that will be done.

Also breath easy you are not on the kiddy site.

Indeed.

If I was worried about it, I wouldn't have had you guys do these markers.

If you look at the date of the said post in this thread (03/23/08), and find that date on the PBN post, nothing had been resolved at that point about the ruined AKA body.

Just curious Ryan, out of the ten spots sold on the EM Ripper so far, how many people are left that are the original spot owners ? In other words how many have not sold their spots.

Dunno.

I'd have to go look it up to be sure, but I'd say about 3-5.

Some of the guys who bought them don't post on AO much (if at all).

While I'm here, I'll toss out an update.

I've paid GBA for ano on all the full markers, and they'll be shipping out on Monday.

Todd has said about two or three weeks to turn them around, so once they go out of here, there won't be any updates for a little while.

I'm still waiting on Goldie to replace my boards. I believe this will be the big snag for this project, and I'm not really sure what to do about it.

Hopefully he'll surprise me, but I'm not holding my breath.
