The Plastics Man Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Has anyone heard or know of when Rick will be putting these back into production? Unable to place order via website. Have sent a couple of emails to Rick with no reply. Not wanting the other brand version with detachable but required blending block Ready, willing and waiting to depart with $$$ once available.

Les Young Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 I "ve been looking at the videos of his presses myself. I have a few of his molds & check his site often & wondered what was going on. Hope everything's alright. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpssports Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 We've been looking at getting a few of the Hot Runner Machines but the detachable block is what's holding us back. If they designed them with a set screw lock, they would be perfect. Also easier to clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes , from what I gather, the blending block with the Hotrunner model would have to be disassembled for the runner to be removed between shooting cycles Just another un wanted process to slow you down. Main question still unanswered. At least a reply for Rick with confirmation if they will be available and when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also noticed an update over at Jacobs where he is trying to catch up on back orders so it looks like he's back on track with production. Another email sent to secure a purchase. Hope he responds this time round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
