I love how you guys are getting to experience what I'd consider my favorite mech squonker of all time. They're the most compact and hardest hitting little mech boxes I own. Holding one is a completely different experience than that of a cheap molded plastic box.

It's beginning to drive me nuts that some of my photos will only post as attachments. I'm exporting them with identical settings, o_O

I always thought it was really weird when a reviewer on YouTube would say that a rda or mod or something non-human was really sexy but now I understand what they meant because that thing is darn sexy LOL

At the very bottom (way at the bottom) when you attach images it should give you the option of how you want them inserted into your post, whether as a thumbnail or as a full size image..

that's the only step your missing..

I wish, but I'm telling it to insert them all as full images and some of them just won't. There's even a different icon on the ones that won't. It's really weird, and at first I thought it may be due to my export settings in LR but for example I exported the above 3 images with identical settings so it's not that. I'm totally confused :(

have you tried inserting them all separately rather than as a group?

I just host all my pics on Imgur and insert the links. On larger images I resize to 700px width as a courtesy to avoid page stretching or auto-resizing by the forum software.

My super cheap DTs from EC Blends came today. All but 2 are winners, they’re wide at the toplike an 810, but the bore at the bottom is 510 sized. But, they’re a pretty bright blue carbon fiber, so I’ll keep them jic.
Spent three hours crating up the rest of my mods. (Tanks and zenith coils were already done.) I kept empty original boxes for things like dicodes and Provaris. The rest I took the cords and etc and put in individual marked baggies. Saved a ton of space! Better not in use mods I left in their boxes. Not in use cheap mods got a baggie. Then, I cleaned up my DIY disaster zone in the closet. Of course, then I found another box of mod boxes, and the dreaded box of bits and parts of ancient, obsolete tanks. I’ll sort that out tomorrow. I need to get one more rubbermaid bin as I’m out of space. At least, the worst is over, phew!!!!

I have - not those specific ones but I did do some trial and error with that the other day. It didn't make a difference, and I tried restarting my browser then tried again.

I do use a slightly off-the-wall browser, so I guess I could try another one. May go try that right now but I'm doubtful it's the issue. But I'll try anything so here goes :)

Good evening Shiny People !!! :D

I hope you are having a great day and gonna have a fine evening too. :thumb:

@Eskie I like number 1 AND 2 on your list. 3 not so much. Way cool about your daughter's show. I'd be proud as all get up and go too. :thumb:

Today's shiny mail was a bunch of DT's and another KRMA from FT. Dang, I don't remember going gonzo on buying DT's but I sure as heck did. :confused:

Hey as an aside, what's your preferred method of taking the battery out? It's a tight fit in there. I was thinking of using the door to gently pry it out?
With the Armageddon ... I take the bottle out first and then it's super easy to remove the battery. Grab the bottle at the top, pull it out and you won't have any mess to deal with. Works great for me.
Hope that helps. :)

Finally got around to trying out the MFG V2. Stuck my Reaper on top and took it for a whirl. Here's my initial thoughts, for what they're worth. I love the small size. It's the smallest mod I've ever owned by far. The delrin feels great in hand and is especially awesome since I live in a cold environment. It will take some getting used to because the firing button needs to be pressed pretty hard in comparison to my other mods. I would consider that a con - BUT - since there isn't a way (that I can see) to lock it, that's actually a plus because I really don't foresee it firing in my pocket easily.

My atty fit perfectly so I didn't need to try adjusting the 510, and I think it would be easy to do but am kind of glad I didn't need to find out. The black reaper looks great on this mod so I'll just consider them a pair and will probably never need to make an adjustment. I actually love the included squonk bottle too - it's stiffer than what I'm used to, but it feels great! Not too stiff, not too soft.

The only thing I don't like about it is the writing on the back. That's just a personal preference thing though. I'm not a fan of logos etc. I really wish it was just plain black, but hey, it's all good!

For $20 this is an insanely good deal and I couldn't be happier with it. Gotta be careful as I've never had a mod that required the battery to be inserted upside down, but careful is my middle name. I think it's a winner, and will probably be the mod I'm taking out and about with me more often than not. Again, the delrin is great in a cold environment, and it's a mech so no worries about dropping it in the snow and ruining the electronics.

Verdict: Sloth approves :thumbs: they're still in stock for $20/mod so just wanted to give my initial impressions in case anybody's been on the fence about ordering one.

ETA: couple more thoughts - for one thing, @Tralfaz pointed out that you don't have to run the battery positive side down, it can be run either way. For another I wanted to comment on the door because it is fantastic. The magnets are really strong and it snaps into perfect placement with ease, smooth as butter. This mod is really, really well designed!

I love mine too, glad I bought a few of them. The only problem I have is, I have to take the bottle out to get the battery out. I just can’t seem to do it otherwise.

So - it didn't work, but I did manage to lock myself out of my account :lol: I guess I had mistyped my algorithm before, and ... eh, who knows. I'm called Sloth for a reason. :sleep:
Check the file size on the ones that didnt post, you may need to edit them down so they will load.
