Thanks for posting this, I have never heard about trimming/thinning the tails. I will have to give this method a try next time.

Can't take credit, it's something I pickup up from @JeremyR over in the rayon thread. He's probably the biggest contributor to wicking with rayon worldwide. A rayon demigod for sure.
Just so happens that wicktail trimming works with cotton too especially when trying to get that perfect amount of wicking density inside the juice channels of high powered attys (50w and up). A little too much in the channels and it's dryhit city once vacuum is formed in the tank, not enough in the channels and no vacuum is formed causing the tanks to leak when tipped on their side.

I've gotta crack the code for every new tank but once I have it, I have it. The only problem I'm having these days is remembering how I wicked 20 different tanks.:cry:

... if you have a KF V5 they work really well in TC. Very stable and enough air flow....

Nope. V 2 & 3 here. I found some V5's by Tobecco, should pick one up I guess. I'd rather coil and wick my own than buying premades. I did order some for the Melo that will work with TC- stainless and Ni 200.

Afternoon all!

Well, I heard from Myrany last night, she's fine, quite a bit of rain but no flooding in her area. That's good news! A lot of RL going on but all is well.

Also got a couple of beautiful drip tips yesterday and wanted to show 'em off.

Not too shabby, huh??? :) :) :) I know they look like they have a narrow bore but they draw very nicely. :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:

Since Von is sharin' pics, I should post a couple, just to show off. ;):lol:

My Seamless T-Mod with a Vertex Jr. RDA. The honeycomb pattern is milled into the mod, and then filled with epoxy so that it is all smooth to the touch. :) A wonderful little mechanical mod that I was blessed to receive as a gift from a beautiful and extremely thoughtful friend! I have been keeping this one very close to hand for a while now!

And a Sigelei Fuchai with a CoilArt Mage that came in from FT last Saturday. I've been very surprised by this whole set-up. Really good flavor from the atty, and have been very surprised at how well the TC function has been working in SS mode.

Those look nice on your STminis. Just gave away the last of my three STminis yesterday. I kind of have piffers remorse.:(. It was for a good cause tho.:)

Thanks cigatron! We're really happy with these. They're all we've ever known but hey, if it ain't broke, right?
I know what you mean, kind of miss 'em but if they went to a good cause, good for you, Brother!!! (or Sister. that's gotten me in trouble before. :facepalm: :blush: ;))

The Tobecco K5's are excellent!
