Add me to the list. I'll buy this for sure! I have an LE and it needs these.

Quoted from swinks:

Update - 10-10-21
- 1st manual in Rev1 status - 48 pages - 6000 words don't worry lots of photos and I rather inform people instead of selling a mod with little to no instructions.
- the manual is not complete as I need parts for the v2b when I order the first batch of parts, then more photos will be added and it will be replaced with a rev2 manual but this is a good first look.
- this is for those interested to help them decide on moving forward and I will have prices finalised by the end of the day and will post up soon.

Update - 22-1-22
I have uploaded all the 3d printed parts to Shapeways so customers can buy spares or customise certain parts etc.
I did get the kit parts from Zelta3d which do a equal quality job to Shapeways but buying in batches of 10-12 kits worth does give me a better price especially for the small pieces but they are available here while Shapeways offers the shop ability.

BIG NOTE: - I will not be supporting anyone that wants to make a kit themselves - this is just for the customers that already have a kit and want to replace parts or customise parts.

Awesome! Thank you

Quoted from swinks:

update - 16-3-22
Integrated Proton Gun Kit
- Sadly this product upgrade is now CANCELLED, why? because just not enough support, thank you for your support though with the Proton Gun.
- 12 - out of the 36 kits reached out and said YES, but I needed 20 people at a minimum - but thank you to you guys for your support
- 7 - people reached out to me to say NO, thank you for you responses - much appreciated
- 17 - kits worth did not respond at all to their messages
While I did put some effort to design this portion of the integrated kit - I am ok with investigating it and putting it out there. What I learnt from the last week is a number of people had not installed their kit yet and dare say that is the same with many of the 17 that did not respond. Also the Integrated Kit was never promised rather a bonus if it came off.
Before people ask I am not going to just make 12 kits at a high price as the cost of parts is much higher and Stumblors fees have to be spread across just 12 units instead of 20, - so - NO the integrated kit is now cancelled.
I will NOT be sending messages to the non-responders or people that said NO as they have already given their answer. I will write to the YES people to clarify the above.
Thank you for all the support with this mod, now onto 2 batches of Snackbars and then not sure what I will do next at this stage.
Cheers
Jady

Thanks Jady for letting us all know! You've made an amazing mod as is, I love it, my kids love it, and anyone who comes over to play is always very impressed and has a blast.
