    The beauty of a virtual porch is that it's always big enough for all, and seating is always EXACTLY what you want, and always comfortable!

    Wow. I don't think any of us do have family there, but when my dad was stationed in S.H.A.P.E. we would go there at least once a month. stupid terrorists. Go to the CASAA Facebook page and mention it. They may be able to find someone who can do that sort of thing. saw a couple of them this...

    It has enough breadth that my hands rest on it while working, and that holds it in place. It's very light, but nice and strong!

    And in other news, I shot this little thing off today on my 3D printer. Building coils requires very nimble hands, or 4 of them. Hope with this 3D printed build deck, I will only need 3 hands. I ran out of the filament at 96%, so had to feed in a new one... Doesn't look too bad. Used super...

    Seems like I only ever have time twice a day for forums anymore... That's the one I got at VCC this year! Love it because if you hold it like a tobacco pipe, your thumb is positioned right at the button! Small learning curve for the menu system because there is only one button, but overall...

    If you are on the front porch, you know I did a nice vape stand on my 3D printer last week. Unfortunately, the project is done. I know it was a good project because now I'm feeling a bit down. just cannot think of the next project to catch my attention... when I feel that way after doing...

    I'm in on the kickstarter, and the final price will be $180. Keep looking at their page every once in a while and it will get there. They are really going all out to get the construction just right so it stays inexpensive and will work as well as possible.

    well, Blender makes great landscapes, and I just needed to select out the part I wanted to use and turn it into a solid instead of a warped plane. That took about 45 min... Then about 30 min fixing bad geomerty.. which I find rather soothing. Then building the little stairs took 4 hours...

    Show us your girly, pretty, decorated, pink!

    Here is the pretty that I made myself. I got the Guardian 2 at the Tampa VCC and had to have a place to put it. Here is just the stand. It's 3D-Printed and hand-painted.

    And Mattie, you should never have to worry about yourself here. We are all tolerant of differing opinions. as far as vaping in public (a favorite bash topic)... I will vape in public. If I'm just out walking the neighborhood and there may be children present, I don't vape. Unless it's after...

    And on a lighter note... I was not satisfied with the vape stand I made... It was a mash-up of someone else's Lighthouse and my Vape stand, so wasn't totally mine. THIS is totally mine! Hand-painted and really nice, IMO: and if you want to see the steps and some better pictures of just the...

    not sure.... when I saw the booth, the lady was talking to someone. Thanks. I did a 3D print for a holder, and It is ok... I just wanted something with a bit more pop, so I 3D printed this guy and even did some painting! Like how I nestled the lighthouse in the back of the...

    WELL... You have to measure it, design it, make it, save it as a file that the printer can use, slice it, and THEN print it. took me all of 15 min to make the model and start the printer.

    You did t miss too much. There was a 3D printer printing out covers for some PVs And I was surprised to see the Fl Smokfree Association there. I left after the advocacy presentation, myself. And, speaking of 3D printing... Surely, you would not expect me to store such a nice pipe on its side...
