I'll say. How did you get the custom artwork done?

a mate here is a custom airbrush artist - does a lot of stuff for some pretty awesome companies and I asked him to make one of my Reo's look like it wouldn't be out of place in Fall Out New Vegas.

other than that it was all down to him. it was going to cost me $100 but he gave it to me for my birthday :) I am really happy with the outcome.

only other rule was it had to be a yellow base - its my colour see :)

Ho ho - absolutely wicked game, that. I've loved to FO series since the first tile turn-based version. Hmmm... gets me thinking of a Pip-Boy mod.

He did a great job. Congrats.

I was 4 years old yesterday. My owner(who happens to be the most kind, loving and most handsome above all) uses me as his daily vape since I arrived at his home January 3, 2011. I am a second run original Grand, anodized black. I've run about 6 mls of juice a day, every day. I go everywhere. A few times I've been lost and once my owner, after looking for me for 10 minutes of panic and frustration, found me in his hand. I've had one visit to the hospital. My first change was adding the larger diameter tube. The smaller tube is in the stash box under a bunch of crap. I think its a good idea that as you get older your tube should get larger. The tube change was performed by my owner. The time I went to the hospital in Maine I had my threads and gasket replaced because my owner dropped me too many times and my threads got buggered up. Another time I had my guts removed and replaced with some kind of gold contacts and springs or so I've been told. When I woke up from this operation my kind and generous owner told me what he had done and I said I was OK with it as long as he didn't replace my larger tube.

I've had different things screwed on me over the years. The worst one ever put on me was something that was a 357 that cost $23 and it died in about a week. When I asked to have it fixed I was told it would be $10 so I never did any business with the Sisco kid after that. I vaguely remember 306s, 510s and something called a cartomizer. I bought a Reomizer (RM2) and I've worn that ever since. It makes me and my kind and generous owner very happy and content.

Well I just wanted to stop by and say hello and tell you a little bit about my life. Its been a good life and I look forward to saying hello to you again next year.

I almost forgot. I took a selfie so here I am.

Hey LT and Mr 4 y/o REO...:)

That was a great read. Had me smiling the whole time. That really is awesome if you think about it. Nothing last very long anymore and not only is the REO still cranking it out the owner is still using it and happy about it.

I think I am finally content...it has been a long road of ADHD hitting me every time and not being able to be satisfied with any setup for very long but always coming back to Reos after spending way too much money and time chasing shiny things...

Special thank you to Rob (patience of Job...) and Russ (your videos and chats helped more than you know) and the Reo-fam for always being there helping others and lurkers alike. You are all very special. Thank you!

Updated Family pic :) The purple heart/maple arrived the day after Christmas and I am just now getting a family pic. No shelf queens-all are babied, used and loved. [emoji4]

Very nice family ya got there. If I'm not mistaken, that's a Vertex nestled in there along side all those RM2's. How does it compare to, say, the Nuppin'?
