Thanks G

Its still a little early to compare as far as how well I like it. We're still in the honeymoon stage

I can tell you, the airflow is smoother on the predator and it tightens up more so than the Stumpy. The predator holds a slight edge in flavor. I like the wide bore/chuff style drip tip of the Stumpy better for how it feels (wide and wide open) but the Predator I like for the delrin DT.

At this point I would say I like the Stumpy better overall but I feel like the Predator may surpass it once I get a few more builds under my belt on it.

The Stumpy holds a distinct advantage, for me, as far as ease of build. Why an atty as expensive as the Predator comes with slotted screws I'll never figure out Both decks have plenty of real estate but for the centered single coils I run, the Stumpy is much easier to build on.

Sorry for the delayed response, this happened today...

Thanks Paul, meant to answer your earlier question but for some reason I forgot all about it

The Predator I got from Unior, fortunately for me it didn't tic all his boxes.

My son just turned 1 on Wednesday. He is a handful

Get that guy things he can interact with and keep his hands busy. If he is all over the place, it is a sign of a very active mind.

Counter-intuitive, but keep him learning.

A mind conquering obstacles will slow him down more than keeping physically active every day of every week.

And if you can keep him interested, he'll be ready for third grade before he's old enough for kindergarten.

This is how we started my son off...



I couldn't list the things he's capable of in a single post.

But he's nearly finished all the pre-requisites for testing directly into third grade already... and will be old enough for pre-k this coming school year.

And some subjects such as astronomy, reading and geography, he's far advanced beyond that.

Here's an example from before he turned 4.



And another...



We spend about 5 minutes a day with him doing personal coaching. We guide him with youtube learning vids from time to time also. And we allow him to challenge himself on his Samsung tablet and leapster explorer.

He reads, he writes....

And THE ONLY WAY to stop him from moving FULL speed from 6:am to midnight or better every day is to challenge his mind.

If he gets interested enough on something that challenges him enough, he might even take a mid day break or nap... by his own choice.

And he beats the pants off of nearly every opponent across the globe in his new favorite bowling game on his tablet. If only people knew they were getting dominated by a 4 yr old.[emoji38]

Fantastic, your raising a genius ... .. wish more parents were interested in their children, and realized their potential, instead of just making sure their fed.

You and me both my friend [emoji3] Do you have a list for yours?

Thank you, Slots.

Real trick is keeping them interested enough to pique their curiosity. Then they damn near teach themselves. Put a fork in the road here and there, nudge them in the right direction... and enjoy them being fulfilled the same as they enjoy being fulfilled.

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he'll not only feed himself, but your soul as well.
