I'm jealous about the blue tack

I bought 3 packs of it over 15 years ago and I'm still using the ball I made from the first one. So, it had to go!

 

[bean]

Awesome box! I wanna know more about the Rockman

 

[Stickman393]

Aite folks, she's packed up and ready to go.

Plan is for me to ship her out tomorrow.

Kinda had to take a look at what I had set aside and, ah, add a bit to it. Cause like, there's a very real chance that shipping this package is gonna make me go broke. I absolutely had to make sure that it's fucking filled to the brim with plastic washers and resistor leg clippings. And poo.

It'll be worth the wait.

Did you have to go through a freight service?

Pirateship.com is a great way to save $$$$ on shipping. When I sent the PIF it was half the cost of going direct to UPS or FedEx.

 

[Stickman393]

Aite homies, its in the mail.

I blame FedEx.

But stickman, you ask, don't you tend to ship via USPS?

Yes. Don't ask.

13 pounds of goodness. Thought I had whittled that down more. Woof.

 

[Stickman393]

Package set to arrive Monday, June 8th.

Open. Enjoy. I'd recommend pouring the contents out into a little bowl and doing a little scrooge mcduck swimming routine.

That may prove difficult if you, unlike me, are not roughly 1.5" tall.

Otherwise, just the tip?

THE EAGLE HAS LANDED. RELEASE THE BARNACLES!

THE EAGLE HAS LANDED. RELEASE THE BARNACLES!

Later that day

 

[tcpoint]

Indeed, the Eagle has landed. This thing is massive and deserves it's own thread. See "The Eagle has Landed" thread. The Stickman is the Eagle and has delivered.

The Eagle Has Landed

 

[leadfoot]

...to see this now from when it started has been very amazing! By the end it'll be like a mini fridge sized package.

 

[Cybercow]

@falco_femoralis is going to end up with a LOTTA stough!

 

[jwin615]

I thought it was going to Robert last

 

[jwin615]

Or back to bean
Can't remember since this started a year ago almost

We force added Robert as the final guy for the previous one. This year it just ends. I might put myself somewhere else in line next year so I don't have to be first, though. Maybe I'll stealth drop my name after @Stickman393 !

 

[falco_femoralis]

We could do a continuance of this PIF and start a second list. I'd like a bean board and some weird caps but as it is I have enough stuff

... not that I'm not grateful!

Summer PIF 2026: The RePIFaning
Though once the oil reserves run out, it's gonna cost $200 to ship that thing

 

[pbrommer]

This is the PIF that never ends
Yes it goes on and on weird friends
Some people starting PIFing forever just becase
And they’ll add white washers forever just because
