Ready for something new?
Background:
As a lifelong pump player I always desired a compact, light, reliable, motorized loader to keep up with the autotrigger and nothing really fit the mold. I hoped Dye would make a Rotor shell that was smaller, something in the 100 round capacity range but like Half Life 3, it never came out.
About 3 years ago I got hooked on 3D printing and quickly started working on my own models. I got ahold of the shoebox Rotor and played with that for a few trips and although the idea was great, improvements could be made and I set out on a path to a new design. 9 months of work has brought me to a place I am pretty happy with and has been reliable on the field from taking hits, to getting slammed in the snow and ice as I lost my footing and used it to stop my fall.
This brings is us to today and what I am offering
UPDATE Version 2.0 is now READY

Dye Rotor for comparison
Key Features:
- Toolless Disassembly
- Slide the locking sled back, rotate the top shell, and you have access to the motor, feed tray, and gears. Everything comes out in the spirit of the Dye Rotor
- Interchangeable Upper Shells
- Locking: 60, 75, 80, 100, 130
- Magnetic: 60, 90 (Curved)
- Spring tension keeps the lid closed, pop it open and it magnetically stays on the sled
- Threaded 2 piece Feedneck
- Our local field offers 50 cal play for kids and my son has started to get into it. I designed the feedneck to have a swappable inner core and want to offer a 68/50 cal conversion when I have some additional design time.
- Feedneck bolts on
- In the chance you do crack the feedneck (also simplifies printing), the entire hopper is not a loss. Replacement parts are available

- In the chance you do crack the feedneck (also simplifies printing), the entire hopper is not a loss. Replacement parts are available
