I would love to be making more pots for you guys but there are no resources available to use at the moment. I am trying to think of ways to get them done but it wont be easy. I know some of you want pots so if you would like to register your interest then post in this thread
Once people give me an idea of how many I can start to look at ways of getting them done.
I really want to make more of all the pots but it's going to be a struggle and I hope I can work something out soon. So far the performance has been very good from everything we have made so I would love to get more out there for people to use
Just as an aside, I had a Marksman in my possession for events for a few months and man do I miss that thing... Hobiecat has it now and I'm jealous.
The temperature control was nothing short of incredible and the wide opening makes it a dream for both LN2 and dry ice usage. I have a Kingpin Cooling F1 Extreme Edition and as soon as the Marksman becomes available again, I'll be selling the F1EE to help fund one. Best pot I've used yet.
The Marksman shouldn't really change much in price, if at all. They retailed at $295 but actually cost a fair bit more to make. They've been pretty heavily subsidized by OCN, the pots were never meant to be a money spinner or buisness, we just wanted to make the best pots we could for the members here at a somewhat reasonable price. I'm not sure if people know that...
The Chubbies will probably end up around 220 230ish. Scoot will need to get a full run in before we know that but they won't be mind bogglingly expensive.

Low quantity runs have something to do with it ( If there were a lot of preorders prices would drop ) as well as materials and tooling but machine time is the real killer. Scoot might be able to delve a bit deeper but put it this way... when der8auer is putting out GPU pots for 369 EUR.... he's not joking, that's just what it costs. ( Not having a jab, the Raptor 3 is just a good example )
And yes they will fit in 4way quite nicely. She's just a little on the chunky side
Hobiecat might actually be doing some 4-way soon, I'm not sure what he's planning but he's hording 4 of the prototypes

Its sitting on my table and im shipping it to him tomorrow (works been nuts lately and I haven't had time) but tomorrow it ships!
Other than that for my first time on LN2 and using the MM that thing is amazing I want my own, I have had funds set aside for this thing for months now. I want a V2!

I actually just threw them on 4 different cards (GTX 480, 8800gt, HD 4870, and HD 5850) and stuck them into a giga z87x-OC. They were designed to fit together in 4-way and yet be much bigger and heavier than "slim" pots, and they accomplish just that.
