Homemade Box Mod

Status
Not open for further replies.
I've been vaping for a couple months now. Currently using a K100 with dual coils on an Igo-W and I love it. Lately I've been seeing videos and posts about homemade box mods. I really like the look on a simple 18650 Black box mod. Anyone have a tutorial I can see to learn exactly what to get to make a mod like this and how to do it? Thanks!

3 home made WoodChucks made by a good friend. Plenty of tutorials and kits to make them out of plastic.

Have you had any success?

I wish there was some way I could enjoy box mods. They seem so nice but they're so ugly, I mean I like the wood but the 1 side with the tip and the button is just soo uneven. And it reminds me of a pack of smokes with 1 sticking out the top. Somebody needs to create an inline 18350mod with a bottle built in. Like a sexy wooden cigar.

So you want a wooden, bottom fed, tube mod.
That would make for a hell of a long device.
If bottom feed is not important, contact JR Custom Turning. JR Custom Turnings I can't find them on their website but at Vapecan, they were showing a line of devices with exotic wood tubes and brass end caps. All parts were turned in-house and look great.
Busardo was looking at them at about 21min mark of his coverage of Vapecan A PBusardo Video - VapeCan 2013 & Contest Winner - YouTube

Fourtytwo, it wouldn't be so long with just an 18350 battery and a 3ml juice bottle or maybe 6ml. Just set it up with the battery/contacts/button up top and drill a tiny hole through the wooden housing that you could feed a small tube through. Then you could store the bottle on the bottom of the mod and just give the cap a twist to change/refill the bottle.

If you are going to make your own, you should make the Puck and use regular rechargeable "AA" or "AAA" batteries.

Different people different taste I guess. Tube mods are ok I own ONE but I feel like Im sucking on a pipe bomb no matter what size. Now I now they can be good liking when wood is added especially stabilized wood which I know a lot about. https://store-549f5.mybigcommerce.com/lewis-gentry-wood-mods/

    Thing is that you can make a box mod as simple or as fancy/complicated as you want.
    One of my favorite PV's is a box I made right after I started vaping. It cost me all of $2.20, and took about 20 minutes to make.

    I've also made a couple using an OKR T6 regulator. Based on this Mamu design.
