    Yes! I spoke to René last week. I will email the entire group today or tomorrow on the process. More clarity to ensue

    Read the full update here.


    The cookies are finally out the oven and icing got applied.

    There it is! My Phoenix Yellow 1:1 CSL Carbon Diffuser with CSL matching 1x1 weave pre-preg carbon fiber is produced, painted and currently curing before shipment.

    There were lots of questions surrounding the paint like. The answer from René was this would be naturally dictated by the ridge.

    It was difficult to understand for most, understandably so. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

    Next & Final Step: Test Fitment and Review on The Phoenix.
    ..and some proper pictures.


    ETA: last week of June!


    These look F'in phenomenal. Looking forward to my delivery!

    Deliveries will start by end of June to early July. I want to have the first one to validate everything is tip top to green light production units.

    Inching closer to production:
    Negative Mold Creation.


    As of June 8th 2022, René has created the 1st negative mold. Made from carbon fiber, this mold will be used to create the actual production units! The mold is further reinforcement by adding carbon fiber plates to ensure the mold stays true during production and autoclave process.

    The negative mold will now be finalized by applying the various layers of release agent needed to start production.

    Next step: my test diffuser gets made this Friday : )

    For late comers, a pre-order is available here.

    This is looking great dude. The mold looks exquisite.

    If I didn't already have a diffuser on order I'd cop dis.

    The epoxy is done. See attached.

    Negative mold creation has started. Rene wants to do 2x negative mold production considering the popularity to cut down production time in half. He'd be able to do 6 to 8 diffusers a week.

    I've opened up 20x spots for a limited pre order here. Pricing is a little bit higher than crowdfunding - thanks to those that initially committed to make this a reality.

    The master positive mold is done! It will now get epoxy'ed and the first negative mold will be made out of carbon to create the 1st production diffuser.

    I added a new, detailed Journal entry here.
    Thanks for the updates Matt! I've held off on paying the invoice until I saw the final product - looks great so far!

    Last chance tomorrow for any late slip-ins Rene is ordering all the supplies needed over the weekend to get to work on this project.

    Excited to see this, my expectations are high.
