Hi SW the adjustable pin for the ZNA came during the outage
It included a new plastic bushing and a 2 piece copper 510 pin It's a screw type adjuster not spring loaded
It works nicely,all attys sit flush now. Pretty small part for 16 bucks thou

Nice! Does the center screw turn with some resistance? Mine was loose and kept moving out of position when I took an atty on and off until I tinned it with solder and made it tighter. That's worked to date but at some point I think the solder will loosen, this may be the answer to that problem.

It is a bit loose. It's not a problem yet but if it becomes one, I will tin it a bit
Thanks

FYI:

You cannot respond to PMs sent prior to the upgrade, the other party will not get it.
You must start a NEW "conversation".


The links between old PMs and their recipient did not carry through to the new system

lol - i'll never find all my old threads ............ sigh

no idea how i can make do without 'my posts'
Yep, I just found this thread again. I'm slowly adding all the threads I'm still interested in to my Watched Threads list. That will be an acceptable substitute for "My Posts" once I've got 'em all.
It's getting them all that's the difficult part. :ohmy:

I don't get it... You guys lost your subscribed threads?
Nope, we just didn't "subscribe" to threads to begin with. We just used "New Posts" which brought a list of threads we'd posted in. That feature is conspicuously absent from the new software.

I'm having problems finding information, could someone answer a question for me. Will DNA 40 large screen fit in the Baps or do I have to make some adjustments? Thanks in advance!
While it "can" be done, you will have to make adjustments to accommodate it.

I had to enlarge the window, used a file, tried a dremel but high speed didnt work so good on the nylon.
Also the screen wont fit in the recessed rectangle on the inside or back of the window hole, so you either have to grind away those walls, or fasten it on top of the walls.
If you have the version of the BAP that used a clamp for the window, the clamp wont work either.

On the edge of insanity..
Here is the DNA 40 I built from round 6. Nothing special because I was too impatient as this was my first experience with TP. Been vaping on it since the evening the board arrived. Definitely jumping on round 7. Thanks again Mike!! :)

Still need to finish squaring and tinting the cover. Also going to change out the fire button if/when it ever arrives..
