I got the same one! My shopping addiction hasn't been too bad lately so I don't feel horrible for ordering.
I hope someone puts up a video so I know how to do this and what/where to buy.

I'm getting 34g wire and braided cotton wick on ebay. Stuff's crazy cheap!
Quick piece of advice....and I can't say this enough...MAKE SURE you do not overtighten the screws. You don't want those little posts turning around inside the base.
Find threads on the mark t infinity and the bulli a2 about coiling, wicks, etc. They function identically to the Chalice, and are it's conceptual father and grandfather, respectively.
SO, now that I'm buying support stuff for the Chalice (wick and wire) I'm wondering if I should throw some money at those 2-cent fuse jobbies for short protection. Having never done the rebuild thing before, I'm concerned that I'll mess something up and start melting springs... so I guess my question is, will the 2-cent fuse protect my REO in this situation, and will one fit in a Grand without overcompressing the spring in the process?
The fuse things. Don't you pitch them after you get a short, and have to get a new one? Maybe the springs are cheaper?
Anyone else get the email on the delayed shipping?

I am sort of glad shipping is delayed. I will be away for a few days next week and did not want it to arrive while I was gone.
However, I worry, just a little, we are being scammed.
They will ship eventually won't they?

Dave, the 2 cent fuse protectors work in a Grand with the 18650 batteries, but will not work with the NI-MH batteries. Much too tight with my fave lil green batteries. Ive got some photos in this thread.http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/300415-mod-fuse.html. I haven't tried it with the VV woods, but my guess is it's a no go on them also as the spring is pretty compressed without it.
Yep, they're meant to be tossed as soon as they trip, but that saves you having to replace the spring. REO springs cost 4 bucks, I assume the 2-cent fuses cost considerably less. I'll have to look into it.
I doubt seriously that we're being scammed. Mark Bugs has a name and reputation, and have had at least 1 lawyer in on their beta testing. Bringing a new product to market is a dicey proposition at all times, even more so when you have external dependencies (like special packaging that doesn't get delivered on time). Patience, grasshopper. Patience.
Since I discovered the 1.7ohm shorty cartos, my 4.8v batts have sat unused and dejected on a shelf over my desk. I don't think they're going to get any more play from me, I've grown accustomed to only having to swap AW IMR's once a day.
Go to ebay and search for "34 gauge resistance wire" and "braided cotton wick". I got 25 feet of each, shipped, for a total of 6 bucks.
Last night I practiced wrapping coils. Since I don't have any of the actual stuff yet, I used electrical tape and my cat. Yes, I'm kinda scratched up today.

Ordered my wire from here, and will probably use gauze, yarn or cheese cloth as my wick. That crazy wick thread has me worried about silica now.

Dave! I spewed my coffee!
Did you soak kitty in some VG to check how well absorption was?
