    CA SB 140 dies in Committee!!!

    That's gotta sting a bit. ;) This points out the 'all or nothing' mentality of those who wish to rule rather than govern.

    On this day, one year ago...

    Beyond the Ego kit and an MVP early on, the hardware I've purchased has been for durability and reliability. I don't work in an office environment. :D Provari, REO, and recently an SX Mini. Nautilus is my tank of choice on a job site. Buy once, cry once! Most of the cash has gone toward...

    The Womper Woom OR You Might Be A Modwomper

    Wrap a thick rubber band around the part you're going to put the pliers on. I do that with chromed plumbing parts all the time. I save the bands that I get from the asparagus and broccoli bundles at the grocery store for just that purpose. Tricks of the trade(s) and a lot cheaper than...

    On this day, one year ago...

    ...I bought an Ego starter kit and I smoked my last cigarette. And I mean MY LAST CIGARETTE. :toast: I have nothing against smokers, or against cigarettes per se, but vaping is just so much more enjoyable for me. I'm just here to toot(le) my own horn for a bit, and to thank you all for your...

    Wood Calling all Woodworkers: best sandless polish option?

    Cool! Just keep the wood from drying out is all. Very nice in the hand and the patina tells a story years later. :D

    Wood Calling all Woodworkers: best sandless polish option?

    I've built a lot of furniture/cabinetry and several dozen guitars, basses, boats, and gun stocks over the years. My screen name here comes from the name of my former business. Philo Custom Shop. Boats and heavily used/abused furniture get high quality varnish with a paste wax top coat. Guitar...

    I forgot what a nice vape this is.

    Carto-puffin' foam wompers!? I've never built a vape machine with foam, but I've built a couple of guitars, a boat, and a few airplanes with it. :D "Are you listening? ...Plastics..." c.1967

    First kit

    Welcome aboard Zombie! Glad to have you with us. For the hardware (battery and atomizer) the simpler the better when getting started. Good suggestions in the above posts. The juice is always the toughest part, and it takes some trial and error to find what works for you. The best option is...

    hot weather and batteries

    In my experience with battery-operated construction tools there is no real 'danger' involved. The 'danger' is to the battery itself rather than to it's surroundings. If a battery does happen to be exposed to high temps, for whatever reason, let it cool down before any sort of use or recharging...

    petition needs your signature

    I was struck by the fact that they knew (or even cared) so little about the political side of vaping. When the conversation eventually turned to money and the amassing of personal wealth they were on top of it. Not about making it, but about having it. Different generation, I guess.

    A fun fact for the anti-vapers

    I have no argument with this. Whatsoever. The industry seems to be handling it on their own, with the help of consumers, and everyone is free to do their own chemical analyses as they see fit. A government mandate that everything about vaping must be harmless for everyone, and anyone, at all...

    A fun fact for the anti-vapers

    Here's my end argument every time: If you're concerned about the potential harm that vaping may cause, and about what may or may not be in the juice, then you should probably not vape. But you should not tell me that I cannot vape, because I'm fully aware of the possible dangers given the...

    petition needs your signature

    I managed to 'hold court' for a while with about a dozen younger vapers (30-ish yrs old) at a party yesterday. Most of them were completely unaware of the deeming regulation currently in process, and what it might mean for the future of vaping. They're aware of the issue now. :D A few of them...

    My opinion on the labeling of e cigs

    Government entities are casting a very wide net with their current deeming regulation. If they can't call it a tobacco product, they can't tax it (and control it) like a tobacco product. It's a helluva lot more than 'just semantics' when the motivation is taken into account.

    Innokin iTaste MVP 2.0 Questions

    Welcome to ECF Juan! Glad you could join us. The Protank will work, but it won't be a top recommendation. There are much better tanks available for the money. The Aspire Nautilus (or Nautilus mini) comes to mind. Best of luck to you.
