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? ❓

Tom how long is the wait on a shoebox I don’t live far from you I live in Indiana about 30 miles South of South Bend IN if you get a minute let me know if I have to get on a list and where at thanks Eddie
damn, isn’t it great when the actual owner/ builder of a product/company takes the time to respond personally to messages/ questions/problems? any plans to take your company public and sell stock, Tom?
I did 100% of the sub-assemblies myself but now I hired one of my old techs from my paintball company part time. I also have two excellent engineer friends of mine helping on the weekends, they work for ShoeBoxes. 🙂

Oldgoat,
I figured it had to be a conspiracy. But I think we have smoked Tom out now.
Tom,
I can’t imagine how busy you are, are you still doing this alone?
Where do you ship them from?
Roachcreek
FYI there are 26 in boxes right now waiting to go out asap. More to follow…

Oops, my bad! I got a PM from Automags asking for my shipping address so they could give me a total price, on 11-30-10. My total, to central Il., was $418.
They told me not to let that Roachcreek guy know that they were shipping some units out.
Just what in the hell did you do to piss them off! 😯
Oldgoat,
No, I meant when did they first contact you that it was being made or finished and to pay for it.
I am number 51.

Jeff, I am not snowed in, at least not yet. I will be happy to get the shoebox in, it will give me something else to play with. Both of my SCBA tanks are full right now, guess I will have to dump them and see how the Shoebox does.
Roachcreek, I just got the note at 8:53 pm CST tonight. I was #5 on the waiting list.
UPS is snowed in and a week behind….. 😯 Just Kidding… You are
almost set Tedd….
Oldgoat,
You were one of the first guys on the list, when were you notified?
Roachcreek
I just got an email from UPS. My Shoebox will be here Tuesday!
