here is the info they posted if you can't open the link. i am excited to buy this adapter grip and try out the Cheyenne cartridges myself.

FK Irons Hawk cartridge universal adaptor proto. We are planning to release this in two sizes 1" and 1.25" Also a version with Delrin grip which it makes the adaptor really light and a version with a bit more of weight of Aluminum. Both adaptors will have Stainless Steel Stem, internal brass bushing for precision glide of the drive bar. What do you guys think? Will be available at FKirons.com and made in the USA — with Liana Mazanashvili.

that's pretty cool huh ! what i'd like though is more cartridges manufacturers but I don't know if Cheyenne holds a patent for it ? Specially in Europe, T-techs end up as expensive with the import.

I received mine from Eikon a little over a week ago.

I've used it exclusively since (3.6)

I Use it for shading,.color, and linework with great results. Wonderfull and worth the money.

My only gripe is that I have noticed the slide resting in the down position when off on more than one occasion.

Customer service is great, just blows I have to send in.

You are correct. The grip will launch in about 1 month we are currently under manufacturing right now.
The new design of the grip uses a standard bar without the ball at the top so anyone can make a plunger with a needle bar.
The plunger also glides on a bushing brass bearing that is fitted inside the tube gliding with ease.

As soon as they are ready to go we will announce them here.
It fits most cartridges out there

The fix for the soft spring is to just cut a loop or two on your regular and it will work great.

@ fkirons cut the give spring or the retract spring?

Lol, I have the same doubt

The give spring guys.
But remember how give works on coil machines. All you need is just a bit of flexion on the spring. Too much give can damage the skin easier as there is not enough penetration.

This is going to happen with any machines.
