XEMON's phantom double sided feed (3D printed) - Info, how-to and Q&A

[ClockworkSoldier]

Still have any of these available, or planning to make another batch? Specifically interested in the matte version, but I'd be happy to get my hands on any style at this rate.

[XEMON]

im moving my shop out of storage, so things are at a stan-still for a bit, but i have a few needing final assembly.
Ill probably be doing another batch at some point if there is demand for it.

if you dont see anything posted here in a few weeks, feel free to check in 👍

[ClockworkSoldier]

Alright, awesome! I've been looking high and low for one of yours, or an Apocalypse feed. So I'll definitely be checking back if I don't find one in the meantime.

[XEMON]

I started mine after Apoch stopped because i wanted one and couldnt find one.

[ClockworkSoldier]

I don't blame ya. If I had the same tools, know-how, and dedication, I would absolutely do the same, haha.

[MikeVA76]

I too, would be interested in one of these as well. Matte carbon fiber if still available. Thanks

Hey, just checking back in to see if you've made any progress on unearthing your spring feeds from storage.

[XEMON]

I'm getting the shop setup and it's getting close to fully functional. I have the feeds on the top bin 😅

Thanks for your patience and support

[ClockworkSoldier]

Awesome, and no worries! I did manage to get my hands on one already, but it appears to be part of the first batch, without some of the other QoL features you added with the newer versions. And if you're still interested in trying to improve them, once you get the shop setup, I'd be happy to provide more detailed feedback, and ideas for additional features.

[XEMON]

Ok, y'all been waiting patiently for way too long, so it's time to deliver some updates 😁

I have 3 carbon fiber ones ready to go, and I'm working on 3 clear tubes prototypes.
So, the few of you that have been waiting patiently for the next batch, you got first dibs!

[ClockworkSoldier]

Woohoo! I'll definitely be taking one of the carbon fibers!

Were you able to get the new lighter springs made that you were satisfied with? Also, any chance you'd be willing to design a rear section that screws into the valve, like the apocalypse feeds. One that either includes a picatinny rail, or has holes to mount one? Apocalypse did a very limited run of the picatinny version, and I'd really like to have a similar setup as below, with a small microdot.

[ClockworkSoldier]

XEMON Heck yeah, can't wait to see what you've got in the works!

I was also wanting to make a small circular indentation where the follower screw sits in the forward stop (on the springfeed I already have), so that it doesn't accidentally shake loose and crush the paint while reloading. But since I've never worked with CF before, what would be the best way to do that?

[XEMON]

A small file will work perfectly, make sure to clean the cut of any stray fibers and wash it well in water to not have dust laying around.
Wearing gloves would not be a bad idea either, maybe safety glasses and mask (the dust can be pretty bad for your lungs) a nice habit.
If you prefer to send it back to me, i can add it for you at no charge (just cover shipping)

[ClockworkSoldier]

XEMON Alright, thanks! And I should be good to mess with it myself. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking anything crucial.
