§ 01 · What It Does

A 1 lb bolt-on that adds joint infusion to your existing host.

Little JIM is a 3D-printed bolt-on apparatus that attaches to an SVH or legacy MCF1 filling station, adding joint infusion capability. It provides a cradle that holds single pre-rolled joints with a guide for a sharp needle. The operator manually draws the joint down on a track while simultaneously dispensing distillate into the pre-roll. Little JIM has no controls, no power requirements, and no pneumatic connections of its own. It weighs 1 lb.

01

Host-Powered Operation

Little JIM has no independent power supply, no pneumatic connections, and no controls of its own. All dispensing force and fluid supply come from the SVH or MCF1 host. The apparatus is purely mechanical.

02

Single-Joint Precision

Processes one pre-rolled joint at a time. The operator places a joint in the cradle, aligns the needle guide, and manually draws the joint down the track while the host dispenses distillate. Operator-controlled pace means each joint gets individual attention.

03

Quick Attachment

3D-printed cradle bolts on and off in minutes. No tools beyond what ships with the host. When joint infusion is not needed, remove Little JIM and the host returns to its standard filling workflow immediately.

04

Minimal Footprint

Weighs 1 lb. Adds no meaningful weight or size to the host. Stores in a drawer when not in use. The 3D-printed construction keeps the apparatus light and easy to handle with one hand.

§ 02 · Specifications

Specifications for a 1 lb bolt-on apparatus.

Little JIM is not a machine. It is a 1 lb 3D-printed bolt-on apparatus with no independent power, no pneumatics, and no controls. It attaches to an SVH or MCF1 host and provides a cradle-and-needle-guide mechanism for single-joint distillate infusion.

§ 03 · Certifications

Certified through the host.

Little JIM is a passive bolt-on apparatus with no electrical or pneumatic components of its own, so it carries no independent certification. When installed on an SVH, operation falls under the SVH's cETLus certification; on a legacy MCF1, under that host's certification framework.

§ 06 · Technical Q&A

What operators ask before they buy.

What hosts does Little JIM attach to?
The SVH (current-generation North American semi-auto filler) and the legacy MCF1. Little JIM does not attach to the IZR, Big JIM, or any other Thompson Duke equipment. If you do not already own an SVH or MCF1, we typically quote the SVH and Little JIM together as a bundle.
Can Little JIM operate on its own?
No. Little JIM is a passive bolt-on apparatus with no controls, no power supply, and no pneumatic connections of its own. It requires an SVH or MCF1 host to function. Without a host, it is an inert 1 lb 3D-printed cradle.
How does attachment work?
Little JIM bolts onto the host in minutes. It is a 1 lb 3D-printed cradle that mounts to existing points on the SVH or MCF1. No tools beyond what ships with the host, no wiring, no plumbing. Removal is equally trivial.
How does the infusion process work?
The operator places a single pre-rolled joint in the cradle, aligns the needle guide, and manually draws the joint down the track. As the joint moves, the host dispenses distillate through the needle into the pre-roll. One joint at a time, operator-paced.
Can I swap between cartridge filling and joint infusion?
Yes. Attach Little JIM when you need joint infusion, remove it when you do not. The swap takes minutes. When removed, the host returns to its standard filling workflow immediately.
What certifications apply to Little JIM?
Little JIM is a passive apparatus with no electrical or pneumatic components, so it carries no independent certification. When installed on an SVH, operation falls under the SVH's cETLus certification. On a legacy MCF1, under that host's certification framework.
What is the lead time?
Little JIM is a 3D-printed apparatus, so lead times are typically short. If ordering with a new SVH, the bundle ships together on the SVH's lead time. Standalone Little JIM for existing SVH or MCF1 owners usually ships in 2-4 weeks.
