The current lead time is 6 to 7 weeks. I'm always trying to find ways to be more efficient, so hopefully I can keep the wait times from getting too far out there...
Well,..... I think I'm finally ready to go public with these babies...
I've been building them for a few months now. Building, testing, building some more,..... more testing...
I've sent a few out already, and have had really good feedback.
Right off the bat,... I wanna just mention that these mods are inspired by a mod that I purchased over a year ago from a true artisan. He makes the finest wood bf mods on the planet, imho...
Sadly, I had to sell that mod a while back. It was far too nice a mod for a bull in a china closet, like myself...
Ever since, I've wanted one like it made of metal. I took matters into my own hands, and finally succeeded in making, what I consider to be,.... the perfect bottom feeder, for me...
There's been a lot of interest along the way from folks around here, for me to make these available to the public.
So,... after giving it a lot of thought,... and contacting the aforementioned mod maker, to obtain his blessing for a healthy borrowing from his design, I decided to make a few to sell.
A big thank you to Peter for not only designing the end-loading bottom feeder, but for also being gracious enough to allow me to borrow from his design.
Just to be clear,... I make these in my spare time. I have a full time job that has been working me 60+ hours per week for a while now. I'm hoping things will let up soon to allow me more time to focus on the mod making... Until then, I'll just keep pluggin' away, making as many as I can, when I can...
With my current setup, these take many hours to complete. Given that my time is currently very limited,... for the moment,... I'm offering them in 6061 aluminum or brass, in a lightly brushed finish only. More finishes will be available down the road...
Also, I'll never ask anyone for any money until their mod is complete and ready to ship. Just shoot me a pm telling me you want one. I'll add you to the list, then we can discuss options, time frames and such...
The aluminum mods are $400
The brass mods are $450
I'll check in at least once a day to answer questions and give updates, if there are any...
Thanks!

I'm late to this party but I have to say that those are some of the most beautiful mods I have ever seen. As an engineer I love playing with the electronic stuff. But there's just something so wonderfully elegant about a well made mech. Thanks for the pictures and this thread! Hoping we can talk about a purchase some day.
Yep, yours is one of the two I'm finishing up, as we speak!
Hey, Mooch! Good of you to join us!!!
Thanks for the kind words. Just let me know when you're ready.
Those are some damn fine-looking mods, I have to say! Only wish I could afford one! I hope to get into the squonking game before too long though. It won't be with a cheap clone, either! Nice work, man!

Oops, vaping noob here, I may have committed a vaping faux pas earlier.
Is a squonker considered to be a type of mech? Or does everyone just say it's a squonker?

Urban Dictionary: squonk
(You may wish to stop after reading the first definition or two)
Most squonkers are mechanical, but by no means all. There are some regulated ones as well.

Aha....thank you!
Trivia time!
Jack Murray used the word "squonk" to describe squeezing a bottom feeder bottle for the first time 11/02/2010 (At least as well as I could research it)
"Hey, don't sweat it! It's kind of hard to wrap your head around at first until you see it. The link between the juice bottle and the atty has a great seal and it just squonks the juice right up in there everytime you give it a squeeze. It's brilliant."

Hey, Subs.... what's the deal? I see your package left Sydney on Sunday evening, but it hasn't updated since... How long does something usually take to reach you, once it leaves Sydney?
@Doffy , How far from Sydney do you live?
@Doffy , How far from Sydney do you live?
Im only 4hr away from Sydney...still waiting for it..dang
I keep checking my mail box every 2hr yesterday..lol
Hopefully they won't hold it too long...
Yeah,... I would've thought you would've gotten it by now... I sent you the tracking # in one of our pm's. Hopefully, it'll show up later today... (Wednesday). Keep us posted...
It is always torture watching poor Doffy waiting for a package. Especially when it stops close to his home and takes a holiday.
And here she is...
Penguiness, my friend,....... I really hope you like her.
I got rid of the quotes so we could see the pics again! Wow, just wow. Penguiness, you have a beutiful mod there.
Unbelievable work!!!!
So.... have you considered possibility of doing these in Resin???? Would be light & durable!
