Anyone home at Palmers?

[Cdn_Cuda]

Just got a shipping notice from Palmer, so things are starting to move again.

And my package has been delivered.

[Pump&Run]

May I ask what your order date was ?

[Cdn_Cuda]

January 8th.

[Pump&Run]

Thank you , I was the end of the month Jan 26th.

I sent Craig a message through Facebook and asked if he had valves in stock before I ordered from the website. He replied quickly and said he had to find all the parts first and that it may be a delay in shipping.

I’m happy to put the lawn chair out and watch the engine being worked on if this is the case so to speak …. Keep that priming going!

Ordered a few rebuild kits for my blazer. Also still waiting. In the meantime are there any other places for the blazer oring rebuild kits?

Lol…

As far as I know, there is no "pre-made" seal kits available anywhere else. As for O-ring sizes, you may be able to mostly assemble your own kit. See if this thread can help you out...

I don't want to overshadow anyone else's experience lately, but I placed an order from PPS back in late February and received my order today. I had a reassuring call with Craig before I received the parts, where he also explained the unfortunate circumstances. Probably best to call before ordering anything.

[Lt. head-shot]

I got a shipping label for the parts I had ordered after emailing him and confirming he had them. Took a few weeks but he is following through.

[Pump&Run]

What is a viable current contact vehicle if you have one for Palmers new iteration ? I have since reached out via my invoice email from my January purchase. Looking for another connection route post closure of the shop.

Craig messenger?

I tried three days ago. Still hasn’t read it.

[Ratzkie]

Order was Jan 25. Still waiting for parts. Can't try calling back until tomorrow, but the phone was disconnected months ago I'm assuming it's still turned off.
If anyone has leads on other places to get m3 thread to 1/16" barb fittings, I'm all ears. I wasn't able to find anything though, which is why I'm still hoping this works out.

Also, if anyone has tips on tuning an ION, lmk. Looking for dwell times and operating pressures. The turret still isn't running right and this is sort of the last thing I can upgrade with. It's a double ION setup run by an Arduino with MAC33 valves. I cant get the guns to fire consistently and not waste a shit load of air (and by a lot I do mean a lot- a 68 ci tank lasts only a 100 or 150 shots from 2.5k to zero, its mad borked)

Running dual tail oring bolts should help with efficiency, since the dump chamber gets isolated from the air supply during the firing cycle that way. Hose length really shouldn't matter too much unless we're talking extreme lengths, and it sounds yours are reasonable.

QEVs will let you reduce the dwell which should help drop the pressure slightly and possibly increase efficiency as well.

Why the aversion to creating an account? No need to answer that, just curious.

Palmers Shop will be officially closed any day now.

[Loophole]

Any more information on this? It seems like some parts are still being sold. Is Craig just liquidating his back stock and shutting down. Depressing! Wish him all the best in future endeavors if this is true.

Palmers Shop will be officially closed any day now.

So are you the new harbinger of PPS doom, sent by Craig? Or is this your personal opinion/prediction?

[1snowridr]

No it's legit, unfortunately.

[Carp]

1snowridr ... And where did you see this news update? Was it announced somewhere?
