Project GT-C. Let's talk about circular JLF restrictors

Toodles,

First of all, I have to say great work on this. Do you still have any of the smaller sized ones available for sale?

Okay, I played Blazblue CS and SSF4 for a while in training and online using Gt-c Medium, TE, Ls-55 spring, and Flash 1.
First, I had no problems executing combos with Juri and using FSE was no problem online either. Diagonals aren’t hard to hit but the throw is sooo long.
I was also Makoto on BB and those who are familiar with her parry loop; i was able to land 70-80% vs 90% on a square gate.
Second thing i have to address is that if you are using a flash or optical the throw will feel long but the engage is very short so it activates fast, you wont ride the gate but that a problem for me cause some moves I use require me to ride the gate.
In my opinion the medium FEELS a tad bit bigger than a octo. I may be wrong on the size but like i said it FEELS bigger
Overall its very solid and give a extra room for other people’s play style but if you have a flash or optical I highly suggest to go with a small Gt-c.

Thanks Toodles

I’m not seeing any reason at the moment to not get these made proper, so I’ll get in touch with the fabbing company tomorrow to hammer out some details and see if I can get this badboy made.

have been using the M and S. really like them both. if at all possible i say get them both made, or go for the medium and adjust. i am going to try the small with a modified accuator i have.

great job one these by the way!!!

i guess i m really late

i just knew about these GT-C’s last night and i was wording if i can get a couple cz i only play with roud gates and its hard to find 1 with the JLF , please hook me up with a couple, and let know how can get them and pay for them
thanks man

hey man , i m sending u the money right now

After all the positive comments, I have seen - I am sold too. Hope to see these available for sale soon. :cool:

I still have 5-7 of the medium GT-C’s available, so grab one if you want it. Im working with to get the large batch made, but its going to take some time.

Any word on a slightly smaller version?

There is no official Round Gate for the JLF.

All the round gates sold for the JLF thus far have been modded by players from octo gates (Sanwa GT-Y’s) and the stock square gate that comes with all JLF’s.

Toodles is the first player/vendor to manufacture a Round Gate that wasn’t a mod from an existing piece of hardware…

The Round Gates I have in my possession (for JLF) are all modded from Square Gates. I bought one online from another SRK member and made two myself with my Dremel. They’re fairly easy mods but there’s always a question of accuracy in Dremeling.

Machine-made gates are going to be more accurate and have higher tolerances.

It’s all a matter of what you’re willing to play and what’s available to buy when you want it.

No question Toodles’ Round Gate(s) will be more accurate than the modded gates sold thus far.

I have a spare smaller one I can sell you if you’re sure, but with microswitches, it cuts the diagonals down to about about a 30-35 degree section on the perimeter.

I’ll take it money being sent now.

Forgot to add a note to the subject line =\ Let me know if you have any trouble.

hey toodles , please send me 2 (can u give ur e-mail again so i can send u the money thru paypal) and do i have to pay the shipping for each 1??

#1: There is no need to both PM and post.
#2: There is need to to set each PM with a read receipt.
#3: An answer was replied over PM well before this post.

Yes, I don’t like it when I get both a Post and a Private Message.

I hate Private Messages with Read Receipt, so I don’t even read them.
I think it is super stupid; the person is going to Dick if I read but cannot reply in a cool time.
And even without Read Receipt, I have people keep sending me Private Message, because I cannot reply in time.

I’m always helpful.
And cool to help anything.
But people really need to chill.

If anyone wants to try a three pack of small medium and large, I have one available. $35 shipped in the US, pick the one you like, return the other two and I refund $20.

I got the small one yesterday and like you said the diagonals where hard to find so I did a little sanding and now I think it’s perfect. Not sure how hard it would be to make a size between the small and the medium but I think thats the missing link. I’m really happy with the throw and the diagonals right now. This is my personal preference and it feels really good!

so used to my gt-c my octo’s feel wierd. get these up and running Toodles! i need more!
I think Voltech’s request is something to look at too. a little between mid and small size would be sweet!

I appreciate the feedback. I’ll see if I can get some haly way between the medium and small sizes.
What’s weird is that the difference between the two: About 0.7mm.

Seems to make all the difference lol
