I ordered a full aluminum thrower from Chris, and I couldn't be more thrilled with what I now hold in my hands! Chris's work is incredible and worth every penny, and he was happy to work with all of my crazy requests and custom measurements. Don't hesitate, it's worth the wait!

ordered a GB 1 V-hook from him and asked it to be sent quickly due to a medical complication I was going through, and he sent it out asap and kept me informed and updated. Great guy and will buy from again.

I can't say anything more than simply amazing! My aluminum thrower replaced my teddy bear as I now sleep with it between my arms. Love like this only comes once in a lifetime. Thank you sir!

Got my thrower and tb-ib combo in the mail today. A year of waiting was well worth it. Long wait, but excellent quality.

I bought an ion arm from Chris a while back. Love it, very well made. Very good communication. Have it on my pack now.

Since then, I'm not sure what has happened. No thread replies, no PM replies (though they have all been read). Now, I realize that unlike most other vendors he does not take money up front (which is good, considering his year+ long wait list) it still does not make up for his complete lack of communication.

Now of course he owes us nothing since no money has changed hands, but when you place an order with somebody you really shouldn't have to place the same order multiple times because he somehow loses them. Having no sort of published wait list either means you really have no idea if you're actually on the list or if he has once again lost your order. There's a good reason his thread is full of people asking for a status. It's not so much to know when their thrower will be done (im happy to wait a year or more like others have - the quality of the parts are worth it), but rather to know if they're even on the list at all. We have no way of knowing with the lack of communication.

TL;DR Great product, great guy... but absolutely terrible selling practices. No organization, no communication.

Ordered an aluminum gun from Chris awhile ago. Waited ever so patiently and he delivered in ways I could have never imagined! This gun just feels right. Anyone who has one coming will know what I mean...anyone who hasn't ordered one doesn't know what they're missing out on. His welding Kung fu is superb.

Chris himself is easy to deal with. Straight forward man of few words. Great guy. 'Nuff said.

Thanks!

Ordered a thrower, trigger/instrument bar, front and read cylinders, n-filter, and ion arm. His communication was excellent. The few times I did contact him he responded quickly. When you open the box and hold that aluminum thrower for the first time you will know that it was well worth the wait. These parts are amazing. I promise that you will not be disappointed. Items were packed well and arrived within a few days of payment. One item was accidentally left out of my order and even though I told him not to Chris still overnight shipped it to me. Excellent customer service!

Just Received my metal thrower from CPU64 and its pure perfection!

Image

It came professionally packaged with all parts sealed in plastic.

Its a solid build. Clean welds and straight handles, angles and perfect edges. I'm not afraid of it falling apart with rough handling.

The twist Handel is awesome. I sat there and played with it for a good 20 minutes or so.

All holes are pre drilled and assembly is a breeze. He even labeled some parts you you don't put it together wrong.

I can't wait to start adding electronics and there's definitely enough room x
Image

I thought this was cool.

Image

Also want to note that his shaft collar is the best I've seen. It's so clean cut. The best ive been seen.

Image




This thrower took about a year to get done. It's worth it. Overall I'm extremely happy with it to finally have a particle thrower in my hand is beyond comprehension. I'm finally getting an idea on the size. Last time I've seen a proton pack in person was in universal studios Florida, I was 10 lol. The is going to be a great experience when done.


Thank You So Much!

I received my aluminum thrower this week. I was about a year out on the wait list but it was well worth it. The wand is a thing of beauty!!!

I recently received my second all aluminum thrower from CPU. I am very pleased with the welds he made and the machined parts. While it did take some time for it to be crafted, I have no complaints. While this may be the last thrower I buy, I would tell any one who has the money to invest in one of them.

Ordered an aluminum thrower assembly, front and rear cylinders, small shaft collar and TB/IB combo from Chris. I was very fortunate in that I only waited 17 days from the day I sent Chris a PM with my order, to the day I had my thrower in my hot little hands a let me tell you, I would have waited any amount of time to get it.

There is absolutely zero comparison between one of Chris' all aluminum throwers and a resin/scratch built thrower. His craftsmenship is second to none and everything fits together perfectly. Lines, angles, holes, everything is exactly where it should be and beautifully cut. I could not be happier.

Now...price. I shopped metal thrower makers daily for about 3 weeks before deciding to send Chris a PM. Among the folks that make the aluminum throwers, not only does Chris appear to do the best work, but he also has the best pricing. By a substantial amount. I couldn't find anybody making aluminum throwers and thrower parts that could come close to beating him. His shipping was lightning fast and his communication was great and he was really easy to work with about when/how he was shipping my order.

Could not be more pleased with ordering from him and will absolutely be doing so again in the future.
Thanks, Chris!

I placed a large order with Chris back in the beginning April and everything was ready to go by the end of August. My parts were packaged extremely well and everything arrived safely. I couldn't be happier with Chris' work. Each part is a piece of art and the attention to detail is amazing. Everything about them is very high quality with most holes drilled and tapped as needed. Thank you, Chris!

My unboxed parts order...

Yesterday I received an aluminum wand kit made by CPU64. I waited a while, which I have no problem with. And I have full understanding that I might take time to get such a thing done. But waiting very long for PM replies and short answers can be a little frustrating. The communiction was not a full score.

That being said, the wand kit itself seems to be top quality and I'm glad I ordered from CPU64!

I've ordered from Chris twice over the past several years and his product quality has always been top notch, that's why I come to him first for V Hooks. Thank you sir, looking forward to buying from you again!

In the end of all this, Chris obviously doesn't need any feedback from me to convince you people that his parts are some of the best you'll find, but here it is anyway:
Ordered all the metal parts for my pack from him. I Live local so he also helped me with odd parts I needed as well as some repairs to my shell/mobo. I have to say if your looking for clean work, Chris is your guy. I would say he specialises in precise measuring and welding. He's very good at making sure his metal parts have a clean finish. I would venture to say his parts are almost too perfect for me.. Almost too precise to replicate something as sloppy as proton pack parts... This cat should be designing more precise stuff, like engine parts and such. Give him enough time & metal and I'm sure he could build a car, seriously. I'm not kidding... Anyway y'all have seen his work and talents, just thought I would give credit where credit is due. Nice work my friend, very nice work.
