He doesn't sound like much of a GP aficionado if he was unaware of the upcoming GP Spheroid v4. :pervy:

Is it Friday yet?

Good point. He was a half aficionado? Enthusiastic about the products he owns but not very knowledgeable of the entire GP lineup. ;)

Exactly, Piccolo v4+Spheroid v4 is the Piccoloid v2.
I will calculate the cost the next days. We'll try to line up the engravings of the Piccoloid, and from the moment theses are manual and time consuming processes the quantities will be quite limited.

The construction cost of the Spheroid v4 projected a € 111 retail price, but we decided to offer it at € 99 with a 510 connection, a white drip tip and a silver plated 510 pin.

Hi P, will the piccoloid v2 be provided as a full combo of piccolo v4 + spheroid v4 + GPin adapter, or will it be just the hybrid combo (with the piccolo top cap and the spheroid 510 connector as optional purchases)?

Just the hybrid combo with additional options for the top cap and the 510 adapter. The GPin and the 510 adapters will be offered with the positive post attached; so, it will be a very quick procedure to swap them.



We aligned the logos during engraving, but when we polish the Piccoloid, they move 0,01-0,02 mm due to the polishing belt's pressure. This is something we can't improve further, so in general, the logos are aligned, albeit not perfectly.

Just curious, but how exactly do the engravings "move" during polishing?

The threads are getting tightened very-very slightly by the force of the turning belt, misaligning the engravings, because we have to polish the Spheroid and the Piccolo tube together for a seamless look. Actually the parts are moving, not the engravings :)

The difference is 0,1-0,2 mm, possibly most people won't even notice it, but we are OCD here.

I'm still getting used to seeing you photograph the drip tip that doesn't say GP. But wow.
I gots me eye on that

We didn't put our logo on it to keep things simple, but we made it from teflon :)
