Looks like I made a small mistake. ( order #82698 )

I could have sworn I had 2 of the 1/2" aluminum spacers in my cart before & during check-out.
Imagine my surprise and shock when I open the box, dig thru the packing peanuts, find the bubble wrap, & dump the ordered parts onto my table then find only 1 spacer.

My first reaction was to check the store page... nope, still in stock, so the order wasn't modified between cart & checkout. Next I logged in to my email. Right there on the order confirmation it said... "Quantity: 1"
:(
I know I will now need to order another, but it will have to wait as I can't justify the shipping cost for such a small thing.

I might also be in the market for a new pommel since I'm trying to replicate Madcow's chassis as seen in the "Basic saber with sound style 2" YouTube video. The problem is my current pommel (MPS style 4) seems just a few mm too short internally which prevents the speaker holder from tucking in properly.

Boy oh boy, by the time I'm finished buying all the parts for my desired upgrade it'll practically be a whole different saber.

Shoot Tim an email. He may have a cheaper shipping option (padded envelope or something) for small items such as that.

Good news now is it's payday for me, so I should be able to order all the stuff I need for my upgrade, although...
I have to mail in my blade holder for a specific (blade retention screw to switch) alignment on a new hilt main body I'm buying.
Another custom work request would be that I need a new wiring harness for my NB v2. I'd prefer if they could use some 26 AWG wire
I bought here a few weeks or so ago, and not put JST connectors on the wire ends so I can adjust the length & solder the
components nice & proper. Shouldn't be a problem, right? Seeing as I'm already mailing in the blade holder a few small bits of wire
wouldn't add too much to the weight.

Silly as this question may seem, how exactly do I go about coordinating the overlap between mailing a box out to Tim, and placing the
big order? (Hilt, activation box & mounting, pommel, custom harness, battery & charger, the chassis spacer I forgot last time, + whatever
else calls out to me.)

You'd need to contact the shop about all that.

Sounds like a plan.
