WTB: Mac 33 Solenoid, Belsales Swivel QEV, Virtue Ion Board, System X Cocking Rod

[Lotus]

This is kind of a random list of items I'm trying to grab:
1) Mac 33 Solenoid. This is the one used in Lucky Ion Stage 4 kits. I'd also be happy to find a full Lucky Stage 4 kit.
2) Belsales Swivel QEV, like those found in the ETek Star Frame kit. I'd also accept an SP 360 QEV if it's cheap.
3) Virtue Ion Board: OLED or non-OLED. Either are fine.
4) System X Cocking rod - I really like the System X Cocking rods with the hex nut built into the cocking rod. It made adjusting the IVG much easier.

Also now looking for a PM8 backcap, black or clear/silver/white preferred.

Would a clipboard QEV work? Also interested in boards other than virtue boards?

You can buy new MAC-33 solenoids from Harfield Automation. That's where I get mine for pneumags. They're a small company near Richmond that builds custom machinery. Their website is mostly useless, but if you call their phone number, you usually get a real live person who will guide you to a sales associate. You'll have to explain why you want the solenoid valves, but usually it's a quick and easy process. Not sure if their prices have gone up recently, or if they've survived covid, but last time I checked, the solenoids were $35 + shipping.

Thanks, but this is for an Ion, and so a swivel fitting QEV is important. Also, I already have a Clippard QEV. Also, I have a Trinity frame that uses a membrane pad, so whatever board I end up with needs to use that membrane pad. I already have a Scenario Dreams boad which does use it, and it works just fine, but it doesn't have everything I'd want in a board, so that's why I want a virtue.

Thanks, I'll give them a call.

AC Parts have those cocking rods you’re looking for if no one here has one to sell. They’re 20-25 dollars if you want regular or black. Other option could be an IVG like Inception Designs or Karni.

Not sure on the pm caps but yeah pm me about what you like. Ape board, clippards or SP 360 QEVS, and the matrix back caps. Not sure which ones are what for the caps.

[Lotus]

Unfortunately, none of those backcaps look like the one for my PM8, and I'm not interested in the APE board. The only thing in there that I may be interested in is the SP 360 QEV, and that's lower on my list. Unless it's a good price I'm not sure just that part makes it worth it to me when you have to factor in shipping/fees.

Fair point.
