Printed Precision Trickler

Are there any videos of a powder change with the PP trickler out there or is someone willing to make a quick video highlighting the process (even if you don't actually do it)?
Ready to buy this thing or the IP trickler but haven't been able to get in touch with PP.
Primarily wondering about powder changes (not limited to the powder, but anything else I may need to change too) and about compatibility with small extruded powder compatibility right now.

PP hasn’t worked for anything smaller than Varget for me. 8208 and N133 don’t work well for me.
Just empty the existing powder and put the new one in. Do a calibration cycle, which takes a few seconds, or just power it down and up and it will automatically calibrate. No 'fine tuning', no messing with obscure parameters, it self-calibrates and tunes.
I had some trouble with H322, which is a very short extruded. It worked, but did relatively too many overthrows.
It is, however, working perfectly with H4350, which is in my video.
The creator has been out of the country for a bit. He will get back to you or chime in here.
Received the same this morning. Looks like you beat me to it I’m #65.
Website is updated as of yesterday as well. Sounds like next round of wait list will be contacted this week. interested to see how many units go out in the next batch.
#44, I haven’t received any emails since my initial reservation but I also haven’t reached out since either.
Comms through the website have been pretty good and reasonably accurate.
Very good communication and especially by comparison to others. I'm in the 20s for reservation so hope to be able to report back here sooner than later. Couple more one day matches this summer/fall and then hunting seasons to load for so ill be motivated to get it up and running ASAP.
I know what you mean. I’m number 45ish and I wonder what is up first for the next batch.I'm going to go out on a limb here, but you are probably 50th, más o menos.
Website update (crazy how that works....)! Prepare for more PP!
Emails are going out for batch #2 ‐ just confirmed a unit
Was there any indication to how many are expected to go out on this second batch? I’m sitting at 65 just hoping I get this email before I get the other waitlist I’m on.
No word on that in my communications. I did receive and pay an invoice first thing this morning. Maybe someone who knows PP can fill us in on the plans.
Just received my reservation number, 79.
Maybe one of his "machines is down" and the rep won't come and fix it
Paul at least has time to catch up at the PPT advertised rate of shipping 3-6 machines per week

PPT arrived on Saturday - just a few days after shipment. UPS indicated it was coming. Putting it together took less than an hour while farting around with it to sort out how it all works, read instructions and program the scale.
The interface is very easy. The 3 bottons only is great for simplicity. Selecting the charge weight is very similar to the frustration of trying to set target distance on a kestrel - you blow past the number and have to back track. A trade off for the simplicity is all. That said, im basically loading h4350 only on this now in such a limited charge range that its of little relative importance.
A couple things to note so far. There is one optional step in the set up of gluing together to parts of the base. At least on mine, i dont think it was optional since as soon as I had powder in the hopper it wanted to tip at the lightest touch. No big deal just think its a must. I also needed to cut down my hopper to fot available space which was very easy.
So far I've run about 20 charges through as a test and loaded 50. As the machine is brand new its been more about getting used to it. I need to go through the machine with a dryer sheet, make sure all is set up perfectly, etc before forming any opinions. Ill have a large batch of 6gt to load up soon and will keep track of process, time, over throws, etc.
So far it seems way faster than a matchmaster supreme and i think once it (and my process to match) smooth out it should be great.
