I just watched the Todd's review. Have you vaped it unmodded in dual mode? I have a feeling I'd like it.
I only took one of them out of the box for a quick look to see if a method jumped out at me but nothing seemed blatantly obvious. I have to many tf attys now... Still trying to figure out what to do with the Arras (nifty glass and gold dripper) nothing immediate on that one either. If I ever get a minute I will come up with something. That Arras on top of a dark walnut Woodville LP would be awesome. Speaking of which what would you guys like to see available for Woodville season? A run of gold cyclone/AFCs? The mastery of the anima? Brass Quasars, brass or copper Plumeveils? Something else? Name it....how about a gold plated magma? LOL.
is there a site where these are being offered? if so, link please.
What was pricing?
I'm probably in for a Torch...

I like those for sure, I'm a total mech guy but l might make one when the next kickass chip comes out. . . Not a fan of wood or plastic tho but I hear they are covering them with some pretty sturdy coatings.
Will they fit a 22mm? I don't have one but I thought they were smaller catch cups.
On another note, I can't seem to get the stainless center post for the Hobo for anything. Other people have stated they were able to get them free, but I can't seem to get them even offering to pay.
I also recently got an Eclipse and even though the coils would be pretty far off the deck, I think it's got BF potential.
I don't know if they stink or not -- I've never owned one. I squonk with my middle finger, not my thumb!
That's why I got rid of my REO, and gave up on squonking for over a year. It was either scraped thumb or herniated index finger.
You can print them in colors, but the dye jobs from Shapeways are hit-or-miss. The purple above came out nice, but I mucked up the black (can't see it in the pic) and the red pritn was terrible, so those 2 are going to be sent out for professional painting. There may eventually be wood shells for these.
Also: the Odin is a perfect fit for these.
To sweeten the pot on the Anima a bit more, it looks like the clones are available in SS, Black, and Copper in addition to the Brass now.
Quick Question. I've had Vmods, and I know about Reo's. I'm in the process of accumulating all needed parts for a gdeals DNA30 BF'er. What other Bottom Feeders are there out there that are not super expensive? I took a break from bottom feeders after becoming disenchanted with my kicked vmod, about a year ago. I've been searching, but if y'all don't mind me askin, I'm curious what mods are being enjoyed out there?
I'd say let it die!
I like the design but paying too much for an otherwise cheap atty kinda rubs me the wrong way.

Redskymods are somewhat exclusive due to them being handmade wood. You have to watch his thread here to know when to purchase, and they usual sell out that night. However, they should not be unobtainium. Also they are currently using DNA30 boards. Personally I am interested in getting one or two of them next year.
ETA
From what I know price varies and depends on the wood. Yes they cost more than a standard REO, as they are regulated by a $50 chip.

There seems to be dearth of them, to the point where people equate "REO" and "Bottom-Feeding Mod". REOs seem to be the only ones that have good availability, unless you want to build your own.
Thanks guys. I'll check out the Redskymods, and I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a VV Reo in the classy's. They are a specialized items. and well built units are treasured. Thanks for the info.

That was my point against them initially.. I would have to sell them for $35-39 if I only sell 10 due to insane shipping prices and drill bit destruction. If I could sell 20 or more I could come down to $32. I have to figure in $50-60 for shipping and destroying a $3 bit on each of them. I just replaced most of the bits destroyed this past weekend for over $200. Cobalt is real! I also just ordered a Wilton Milling clamp set-up that should help with bit destruction and accuracy.
Anybody interested in a VariAnt titanium 150 watt? I might add a few to my next order. Not bottom fed but I must see what 150w feels like. I would require pre-payment on the Variant but it would be only about a week to a week and a half before you got it.
I am assuming Redsky only does wood mods? Any metal mechanicals? I have a Dna 30 elevator2 and it just doesn't have the power that I'm used too. All of my current bf devices are Reo SL/LP with the S/O contacts pushing .35 ohms or less. By the calculations I'm pushing 45+ watts all the time. I would love a VariAnt in a bottom feeder.
