I thought I'd read somewhere the pre-order was gonna be limited, but I must be confused with the Neo. He said it'd last a week, should've mentioned it was limited. Glad for him they went this quickly though. If any of you are really bummed out, I guess you could shoot him an email and explain the situation. I did some emailing with him and he seems like a cool guy.
As for the ss grade it's too bad a metallurgist isn't active in the online vaping community afaik, would be nice to have someone to bother with all our metal shaving and vapor path questions. From what I've gathered the difference between 316 and 304 is mostly in corrosion resistance from salts. This is crucial for a car in cold winters, but for a grinder I don't know. If I could pick I still would've preferred the 316 though, but if it really is overkill why bother with it.
(Also I wonder how much American steel differs in quality from Indian steel. I don't usually care for unsubstantiated claims of superior western made quality as opposed to China or other low-wage countries. But steel quality is known to differ greatly in quality depending on where its fabricated.)
If any of us is really curious they could ask him if he could motivate his decision with some explanation on the science.
