I’m buying the parts for my (European) LR4 build and noticed the Jackpot3 controller was out of stock on Elecrow, before deciding to buy from the US, I wanted to ask if anyone knew how long before they usually restock?
Thanks!
Pinging @vicious1 as he’s plugged into that.
My experience is that Elecrow is generally pretty good at restocking things.
I paid for them a few weeks ago, they should be back in stock shortly!
Oooh, that’s how it works. I though they’d just offer them and give you a cut for every board sold.
Yeah and sometimes they are ready fast, sometimes they take a while.
Awesome, thanks for the update! I’ll keep an eye out. Very excited to make use of your kit @Tokoloshe
On another topic, is Hydraulic tube like this a decent option for precision tubing? I’m based in Portugal and having a hard time finding something I can buy online.
The tube does look okay. Seemless is always good, but they don’t say whether it’s DOM or welded. Welded is never completely round. 
I got my JP3 from Ryan, and my lr4 parts from Phillip. I use 32mm 2mm thick welded black pipe as there was basically no availability of anything else here. It works honestly, not perfectly straight and round probably, but twisting/spinning it around until you find a sweet spot and it’s good. I haven’t noticed any inaccuracies with my cuts. Cuts always to 0.00-0.20mm accuracy on a 2.50m by 1.25m sheet.
That is the benefit of two rails for the beam. They cancel out each other’s flaws and pull each other straight.
Thanks for sharing that!!
