Shoebox will be here inside of two weeks
Note on Tom Kaye’s Shoebox forum, he is assembling the first 100 for shipment, I am number 54. On my shop bench, everything sets, oillesspancake compressor, moisture trap and hose and two scba tanks.
Bad news is, JDS just sent me a email that his 4500 regulator will not fit my Pygme bottle.
It is just a slight difference in money to make my own good news and get a regultor from Joe Branco like the one he sold to 80 grit, put it on the pygmee and attach a lifeline to my etac and have any out put I choose for that new 25 caliber barrel I am getting tomorrow, UPS site says it is in Portland loaded on a truck south to me for tomorrows delivery.
And maybe on the Disco pistol with the 10 shot mag I am building, thanks to my fellow enabler and addict Riverside.
If I keep up on this rate, I will have to pick things up at the UPS store, I don’t think they deliver to homeless people. I wonder if I can get all this kit under my cardboard box? ❓

Go gentle on the blow down screw

haha… thats ok. I still hold the record for the longest continuous stream of vulgarities on the TOG or TAG when Spencer showed up years back. 😈
Pig Fucker?? 😆
Pig fucker dont even come close…haha
My son was describing a marine he knew as having a vocabulary of 5 words, 4 of them were fuck.

So it’s probably not helpful that I jumped on the list RC??? 😆
Rob,
Mid summer, thats cool, which year?
You guys keep this up and I am going to hire Holdover to cuss you out.
Roachcreek
Maybe. I spoke with Mr. Kaye and he agreed to swap my place in line with RC’s…. so it looks like I will get my compressor soon, or by your estimation Feb/March, and RC will get his probably around mid Summer.
😛
I will mark mid March on my calender as when Oldgoat says the compressor will be here.
I am just hoping the scuba shop fill I did a couple of days ago will last until the compressor gets here.
But history tells me I will fill at least one or two more times.
I was going to sell my scuba tanks, but I think I will keep them and just moniter them closely as they fill.
Roachcreek
Good for you Roachcreek but, they are still pissed off at you so you won’t get it till Feb-March 😆
I paid for mine today, yeah!

Well they shipped my Shoebox, then when I checked UPS it said the shippment would take an extr day to the 22nd, but checking it today, says it is on the truck and out for delivery.
Oh well, I guess I will go ahead a play with it a couple of days early. 😎
That is unless the box is empty except for a note saying that it was shipped to Rob instead.
