The ShockWave by Super-T Preorder Thread

[forcedfuel50]

ShockWave Update:

Received word yesterday, that our wait in the cue at the machine shop is up and they are starting machining on the Caps, buttons etc (total of eight different pieces they are machining for the SW, not including the bodies which are already done).

Also, We have the material in for the drop in Kick spacers and are machining those in house which we started yesterday.

Thank you for keeping us informed, it is much appreciated...

I assume some of the small parts will then go off to get their rhodium plating?

 

[quynhwil]

Getting closer and closer.

Yes, 5 parts on the Shockwave are Rhodium over Gold plated.

 

[VapRon]

Rhodium over Gold plated.

I like the sound of that

 

[Mindtroverted]

So that should mean that in about 3 weeks the first Shockwaves should be on their way to their eagerly awaiting future owners?

 

[aziffel]

A shockwave with a ZAU(until the strata is ready) @ vapercon(in three weeks) would be so cool ,but not real likely.

2 weeks would be better......

 

[siouxsie]

I would be surprised, I think November would be more realistic. The parts just now being machined, then when finished then the parts will get plated (5). THEN the shockwaves in total must be finished on the outside, in small batches, and shipped. This is my understanding. David can correct...

Can't wait for these Thanks for all of the updates, David

Yikes, 13 again! I'm cursed for sure.

 

[TopCookie]

All I can do is look on with sheer envy...

Did manage to grab hold of a Cisco Helix yesterday, but would sell my mother for one of these bad boys...

 

[conan]

Did manage to grab hold of a Cisco Helix yesterday,

Congratulations!

 

[Troll from behind]

Kinda OT, but Any chance to see P+ with 26650?

This could actually be a really good idea, with all the challenges that the shockwave has seen, maybe the p+26650 would be a bit easier on the machine shops since the design has already been successfully executed.

 

[TopCookie]

Or what about an 18650 ShockWave...? That would be fantastic...!!!
