2023 pile of poo sign up!

[Trbo323]

Ok, 5 more boxes went out today including the mysterious Andrew

Also, I've had a few donations, some of you guys want to sponsor other builders, but I don't have anyone who needs to be sponsored. If anyone has ideas for who to send a few markers to, post it or send me a pm about it

if we're nominating people, I'd think markdem would be a good contender if he has any interest in it.
Also, Seajay comes to mind, his spocker is an awesome project 👍

PS1: I haven't talked to any of them, literally throwing names out there.
PS2: happy to pitch in if there is a need 👍

I have no preference in whom you send an extra to. Keep the 20 bucks for the organization time. Appreciate this fun adventure.

[markdem]

I appreciate the nomination but I already have too many projects going on. I have a handful of spyders that I've been meaning to chop up, so I've already got parts if I do decide to enter

omg, how did i miss this!? Tell me it's not too late to sign up! I got paypal locked and loaded in another browser tab in case there's like ONE more carver left after all this time.

I am only a fly on the wall for this contest. That said, is the contest still open in case anybody else wants to join? i.e. Are there any markers left for start bodies in case anybody else wants to try?

I started on mine, but got hit pretty hard over the summer with work ... I'll start a build thread so we can watch the dust build up together 😅

I still have markers although feednecks are getting scarce. That may end up being the limiting factor

I know this thing ended way back in November…
But I’m going to finish before SuperGame 2024. Fitting, since that’s when Trbo323 passed the poo marker to me in the first place.

I noticed the connecting rod has a bit trimmed off the front where it fit into the .50 cal adapter. Anyone had any issues with it working with a stock bolt, or have you replaced yours? Looks like it fits OK and mine cycles. Just wondering from those who’ve had theirs running for a bit longer.

[BrickHaus]

Mine seems to work fine but yeah, you gotta keep the connecting rod flipped the right way or it won't work. The short side to the bolt side.

[lhamilton1807]

Right, I only found the issue because when I put it back together after cleaning, it wouldn’t fit in the guide channel because it was in backwards - hadn’t converted it back to .68 yet. I’ll just order a new one and will keep the modified rod with the conversion kit

Huh, I haven't noticed this in any of the ones I've taken apart here. If you need a new rod let me know

I’ll put some paint through it and see if that breaks it loose. Thx for the offer, but I may just add one or two to my next parts order to ride the free shipping train. they’re cheap enough To make a trip across the river not worth the effort

It's definitely a thing. It works fine though.

[Spider!]

I think the short end is (used to be) painted, to match the screw that sticks up a little.

[lhamilton1807]

Since I’m converting mine back to 0.68, I decided to go with an unmodified rod just to have the extra stability. I’ll keep this with he .50 insert just in case I decide to do a .50 conversion for kicks down the road. New rods are only $2.50, and I’ve already got free shipping on an order
