Pheldonia Ubertrunker .. . . Guru of snark. 
has a great ring to it!
has a great ring to it!

I wonder if that has anything to do with the passage of time?
Nothing is worse than a hole that doesn't perform as you wanted... ' you had one job..'

What? We're never going to see UberTrunker?
Seriously... Pheldonia... suits you.
Aren't we all?Off topic but I just noticed Sam Elliott is getting old.
Aren't we all?
P, available this run? If so pen that one in![]()
my dear good sir. if you are to be meaning the new 510s. Yes. Everyone in the current batch is getting the new ones. (by dictatorial bee logic)
![]()
Having built a few mods using them (before Pinches and CeeCees even existed), I'd say they were the best solution available at the time, but whateverWhat was wrong with the ole fd classic?
Couple of other notes, pertinent . ..
Obviously, in pursuing this line of thinking (been thinking about this 510 thang for some time now), I considered whether it would be an expense considered worthwhile by my customers, peeps, y'all. It didn't take long to come to the conclusion that it's totally worth a few bucks to make a fancy mod complete with high-end custom hardware. (otherwise it'd be like skinning the cat and then not eating the delicate .... fat. . . . like, who would do that?)
My pricing on the mods was already buffer-free. I left no headroom for increased costs in materials, parts, etc.
So, I am going to have to adjust mod pricing to accommodate the difference in materials cost to me per these new 510s. I sincerely hope that you folks see eye to eye with me on the value*. It's really not hardly anything per mod; but in aggregate, will go towards me paying off the bill from the machine shop.
Pinch mods will be $384.
I'll be posting this info in the Reference Thread, along with pricing for Li'l Punch and Giggity-Nutpunch ("Nutter") mods .. . in the fullness of time. Generally, I mean to update over there with some more formal description/offering of the Punch & Nutter. I would like to make these 510 assemblies available to hobby modders & friends (on a small scale). Will probably post some pricing for that as well.
*On the outside chance that someone is not comfortable with my having made this decision unilaterally (the 510 decision, w/ its ramifications), please feel free to notify me in a timely fashion, and I'll machine your cap to house the previous brand of 510 and save you the ten dollars.

Then of course there was also the question of making or sourcing a hollow centerpin of appropriate dimensions and characteristics...
Sorry; perhaps my assumption was incorrect. I edited the original post to make the source more generic.As far as I know they're machined in the Philippines for FD
