September Update

Pacificon 2021 is scheduled, hopefully it will go forward and we’ll be there at the Flea Market as usual. Hope to see you all there. I’ll bring launcher supplies and show the prototype I’m working on. We also usually have some “seconds”, slightly blemished parts that sell at steep discounts. Let me know well in advance if you need anything specific.

Planning for Quartzfest 2022 is underway, and we hope to be there as well. What presentations would you be interested in? Last time we did one on 3d design with OpenSCAD, one on Antenna Launchers, and one on DIY and Commercial Ebikes for RVers.

I continue to make launchers and ship orders as we work on the backlog. Thanks for your patience. Today I did a minor overhaul on the 3d printer that makes many of the parts for the launchers, and now I’m doing a test run of a Mini Coaxial reel that takes 9 hours to complete. That printer has printed many dozens of reels of filament, I’m expecting to do a complete overhaul at some point, and another printer is waiting to be assembled when we are ready. There’s a partially completed CSV19 on the workbench, one package ready to go out and another order waiting to be packed and labelled.
