    Captured Prey just gave me a shipping notice on my replacement sights. That is welcome news.

    If you take a hair dryer to it on the hotest setting the stress marks will more often than not magically disappear before your very eyes. It does take a few minutes of running the dryer, but it works great. I used this on TFC's Structor when I put the chest plugs in and it worked like a charm.

    Just wanted to say thank you Sidecutter for the super awesome transaction. It was my first time using Captured Prey but I plan on using you guys a lot more in the future. It was super awesome that you included the extra hands and you packed Quakewave extremely well. Just wanted to say thanks and recommend them to anyone reading this!

    Exactly as Sentinel said. Fixed a lot of figures this way :)

    I never did it but I have read that you can do so by passing a blow dryer over the spot. aka heat up the spot.

    it has to be the old school hairdryers that get really hot. i think the newer ones that try to prevent damaging your hair don't get hot enough.

    Does anyone else who ordered from uncle billy on aliexlress have a working tracking #? Mine says it shipped almost a week ago but the tracking info doesn't work. With 3rd run preorders closing soon now I'm getting paranoid I wont get mine from Uncle Billy... I've messaged him twice about it and he hasn't responded, when usually he responds VERY quickly.

    Have you been charged for it? If you have and it hasnt shown up and theres no response from uncle billy, try talking to Aliexpress. They host his storefront so they might handle disputes. But that should be a last resort, like still no QW after 2 weeks or something.

    Well i got charged the minute i preordered, but he isnt supposed to get the money until i confirm receipt of it. I don't expect it to be here quite yet, but it should be between mon-wed i would think and I just want to know where it is.

    If I dont hear anything by monday night I may have to bite the bullet and order a third run from CP. either i end up with two quakes and sell one for cost or i just get the the one from CP and harass AliExpress to give me a refund.

    I still have 21days 8hours 18minutes 44seconds to file a dispute so I will wait until the last couple of days before I file a dispute. I just hope quakwave just shows up at my front door soon.

    Hmm....Theres a fairly good chance your QW shows up Monday, If you dont get mail on Saturday and Sunday that is. Usually stuff from China takes at least a week, with Chimungmung being the fastest ive seen from there yet.

    I just got some parts. Weird because I never asked for the new hand but I got it. I hope my missing sights is still on the way? Anyway, if anyone wants a look at the replacement hand in purple I put up a video here . It is really not that good. I always liked the first hand but even if I wanted a solid colour one, this one is too swirly for my liking.
