Printed Precision Trickler

[biggershooter]

I suppose there could be some sort of profile select for this as I'm sure different profiles are necessary for widely varying powders.

Manual: https://github.com/PrintedPrecision/Printed-Precision-Trickler/blob/main/README.md

Looks like it calibrates, with the powder in it, when turned on.

There's "quite well" and there's within .02gn, which is what I'm after.

So you haven't tried it then?

Currently testing a unit which will be released in the near future for a way lower cost than alternatives. The hopper was removed for clarity.

Here is a sneak peek... Throws everything from H4350 to Retumbo sized kernels.

Any further updates on when these will be available?

That looks pretty cool. My IP Trickler consistently gets jammed using VV powders

Yeah, right before the IP

Yeah, right before the IP

Unfortunately I think you might be right…

New discs are being tested.

We are getting new disks to address trickle inconsistencies (which I haven't personally experienced), and some additional updates to the bulk hopper are WIP. Consider the usual turnaround time for testers to test, feed back, then try a revision to verify - I would guess mid-May to finalize the design and end of May to have a limited pilot qty available via two planned distributors.

Full disclosure, I have just run through another 300 rds today, with two different powders, without issue. Other testers are still experiencing hiccups and my impression is the creator wants those sorted before going commercial.

To add to this, the test group is actively finding and quashing the normal kinds of issues you find when a product first encounters the public. Testing with more powders in different environments, nailing down quality of life stuff, giving feedback on the user interface, etc etc.

Hopefully it leads to a smoother rollout when PP decides it's ready!

What, You don't want a rollout like some other automatic powder dispensing products I can remember? Just think of all the forum posts you could generate. All the cool kids launch with beta software, the tech bros in silicon valley showed us the way.
