Awesome! Thanks for the update, I really appreciate your commitment to quality. I'm pretty sure your target market for these wants the best and more than willing to wait, I know I am! Can I place an order now? or should i wait?
Does anybody actually have one already?
I am also curious about the switch, is it the same a s that macavelli one where you use your pinky to get in the hole?
Hey, I don't have one but my good friend who is my golf instructor does have one, in fact he has two. One is stainless and one is flame colored titanium. When I first saw them I really wanted one too,, that is until I talked to him about his. Evidently him and his friend actually went to the makers shop to get theirs. He told me that it was essentially a copy of the Macavelli so yes the switch works the same,,,that is when it works,,,he told me he had a lot of trouble with the switch and even had to go to a local machine shop to have it worked on. He said that he picked one up in person but the second one had to be mailed cus it wasn't ready as promised when they got there. Something about the magnet being ill fitted prevented it from working when he got it in the mail, also the glass tube broke within a week and he said he didn't even drop it, not even sure if it even fell over on the table, anyway he wasn't sent the spare tank of titanium as promised either. He also said that the maker never even responded to address the issue hence his visit to a local machine shop. His friend who went with him had the same problem. He did finally get it working tho but after hearing about all the trouble they had with the builder I decided no way did I want to go through all that. He told me that the guy never kept his word about anything they were told. They had to wait forever and they had even payed him up front. My friend is a really nice and easy going guy too, a great golfer and teacher as well. Another of his golf students decided against getting one too after hearing all the woes.. They are both members here too. I will see if maybe he can respond to the forum concerning this too. The other guy got an Orion and loves it, I have a Zenesis. I would say if you want one of these to be very careful.

I just refunded someones order...I could have sent dozens of these things out, and would confidently say they would have been the best mod the recipent owned...if you watched the sucky youtube vid you understand. I found room for improvement and decided that with all the work involved i needed to go ahead and do what i felt was right..and i held off sending out any more devices. I am willing to customize the device to an extent for no extra cost, and this is time consuming...there are three people here who i told to go ahead and make payment on site.. soon after i was able to find a reliable source for tubing. Thank you for your patience, I will create a 60$ discount code for you three tomorrow,(enough for an extra battery tube, or naval brass switch etc) or you can just e-mail me what you would like. if your other tube is to be anodized, i will anodize the extra as well. Ahem..(southern accent) This aint Wal-Mart folks! its a real life greasy loud machine & Fab shop. My intent is not only profit, but to build devices that are the best they can possibly be.It cost me a total of $580 for canceling an order and the extras for a few people. (for doing the right thing) . maybe i should have sent some of these things out anyway, knowing they could have been improved??? Nope, I have a conscience, and am not a crook.....Quality will always come before quantity. That being said, adding the CNC will increase production drastically. I will give the postman some titanium this week.
I don't have mine yet, so I can't comment on the timing of delivery or anything like that.
But what I do know...The switch is not a copy of the Macavelli, it's the other way around.
And boog...I will double quadruple check, and call volusion, epn, and the bank that transactions go through again. i will take screenshots of the conformation that i refunded/cancelled if you need that as well.......I responded to your request for a refund immediately, for no charge. you have cost me hours....at least 4-5, just with all of your constant messages...Did we forget some places close on holidays??????
initially i offered a number of options for you out of kindness, and have refunded your money as you asked. since then all ive gotten are complaints , threats and bs from you. i offered to stop work for 100$ yesterday after many text, tell the whole story if youre going to talk. What i do know is that im sitting in front of this cpu instead of in front of a machine. Whats funny about you wasting hours of my time? Not funny to me, or the few guys mods im finishing before i start letting the cnc do some of the work. Heck, i may raise the price on these things 100$ soon, for the amount of labor involved and being titanium, these p.v.s are a steal. I would dare to say the most durable least likely to have problems mod of its kind anywhere. and completely user serviveable. But people still complain about anything...I will close this thread if its going to be a place of misinformation and lies.
