One more question, do you order the nozzle or does it come with the injector?

It comes with one, but I think most would agree having an extra is nice so you can swap between the two.  If you are just getting started and only have a few molds the one that comes with it would do for now.

The nozzle gets hot and holds heat due to it being solid.  If you are slow like I am, it isn't a big issue.  But on faster, larger injection runs I could see it being an issue.  An extra set ( or 2 ) of O rings is a really good thing to have.  Loosing a chance to make some baits due to a very inexpensive set of O rings is very aggravating  :(.

Good point Paul... I like to have extra pieces/parts for a lot of my "important" tools or appliances.  (furnace, sump pump, belts for the mower, shear pins for the snowblower, etc.)  I think an injector falls right in there.

sound advise.

You really don't need those shear pins, Jerry.  Use a hose.
Until next time.

I wouldn't do that on a bet Denny...  My brothers and I used to do that when we were kids though.  A few well placed buckets of water or a gently running hose will really make the 'ol sledding hill sing boy, I'll tell you what...
