Ok, so the last of the items I was waiting for to be delivered to DIY finally arrived in the mail!

I am getting ready to do my very first DIY recipe and I am very excited to try my own flavors, however, I am nervous.........anyone else ever felt this way their first time???

I don't want to mess anything up

Only thing I can suggest is to make a very small batch, say 1ml to try it. You may not like what you make and then you'll be wasting your prescious juice

Yes, but I was 16 years old. It all worked out ok in the end, but it was tough to drive home with those fogged up windows.

LMAO off at Flipnout!!! I've mixed a few of my own flavors and it's nothin to be worried about. Of course I've not done anything to complex either but I'm sure you will enjoy it!

Yes I was very nervous about this. It thought I would get it wrong and end up with a much higher mg than I needed. I thought if I got it wrong I would hurt myself. For some reason none of the ones I have mixed tasted very good. I don't know if I put too much flavoring or too little. I went by the ejuice calculator to mix. After buying a large amount of stuff to DIY I decided not to try this anymore.

WOO-HOO!

I feel like a kid that just passed the driving examination. I was going to mix a small amount as suggested, however, with the tobacco concentrate I received, I was instructed to only use 1 drop per 10ml. So making a 1ml bottle for sampling was out of the question.

I made a 10ml bottle and the end result is just about spot on of what I wanted in a finished product! I am soooooo happy!

I owe it all to scubabatdan though because without his unparalleled knowledge, I highly doubt this would have turned out......So
Thanks Dan!
