LOL I have been using my prototype since January. I have ran it through the paces.Sounds like your gonna need someone to test that puppy soon!
Here is a short video at the shop featuring the OMEGA. Excuse the mess Keep in mind the one I am showing is a setup piece, you will see some markings on it. It is also not an assembled unit, just showing you the design. Release is getting closer and closer

whiskey - redrhino and I have been trying for months to get Chad to let us do trial runs on the OMeGa. I was trying to give one as a gift in May too. Personally, I would love an OMeGa BB (in purple, of course), but I guess we'll all just have to wait . . . . . . . . and wait some more.

I know, I only had 2 prototype units. It has been tricky to free the machine up from SB/BB to get to work on the OMEGA. I should have learned my lesson from the SB that nothing is ever ever on time or when I thought it should be.whiskey - redrhino and I have been trying for months to get Chad to let do trial runs on the OMeGa.

Will have pictures later tonight or early tomorrow. I have decided on the finish I want. The units have been shipped to the finisher
Finnaly got up gumption to do it only to find that the camera battery is dead..... Tomorrow it is... or today rather.Let's see here... 3 hours difference... and... It's pretty later tonight there now. We got pics yet?
pics! 
Here they are, forgive my lack of skills Hard to see the true finish, but the best way to describe it... slight smoke tint to it. Hard nickel....

What is the hole in the side of the top? That's just a vent or something mechanical right? That not a (shudder) LED is it?
(ok... must try to think like Chad... this is a rather artistic and innovative departure from the hard line fit, finish, quality, and function... (or maybe he just went wild after getting his very own cnc machine)... but)
It's a user adjustment for the switch/activation resistance?

Nope, vents are on the bottom. It is not a LED. It is not for adjustment. There are 3 of those on the actuator head, they are for disassembly....
Remember it is completely user servicable. If you look at the first pic you will see the OMEGA and the vent holes... I was being goofy with the reflection there....
Ahh, cool.
Yes, it was distur^h^h^h^h distracting.
and how come Rob managed to post here at 6:40 am but hasn't got it up for order yet?
