Penguiness:
Evidently Yiorgio got the wrong impression... The version one like yours has a drilled 3mm pin that I stepped down to the Native m2.5 to thread into the mid deck, and cross drilled a drain. This method left very little strength in the 510 pin. For every ten I started one maybe 2 were viable. I had to find a better solution. The v2 never saw the light of day it was scrapped before the first one shipped. Version 3 is done similar to the Vector and re-threaded. This one will not over squonk as easily as yours has and will be much stronger as there are no holes bored or cross drilled to weaken the core of the pin. The extra 3mm of tank will also place the air hole and deck that same 3mm higher to further reduce the chance of oversquonking. I have a lot of hours into the Nectar bottom feeding design. I may try a version 4 if the 3 is well received its already blueprinted, I just need to make the tool tho make it work. I have yet to find anything that will help me bisect a m3 with any sort of repeatability. While there aren't as many steps to the nectar as their are when converting the veritas it's just as time consuming.
