They're the best wick material I've tried out of all the different cottons I've tried so it doesn't really matter what you call it.
Any cotton we use as wick wasn't originally sold for our intended use. Cheese cloth and butchers twine was meant for food. Square braided cotton was meant for...
If you are burning the cotton at all something is wrong. If you do it right you wont need to use a secondary wick on top either. If you are using cotton wool (balls/batting/gauze) try a method that has been fool proof for me.
Roll your coil onto small or medium sized needle, roll a piece of...
The question was, what atties do you guys use?
If rebuildable what wick material are you running with?
I'm using a couple vivi mini novas with cotton rounds wick and 33 AWG kanthal.
My other atty I use is a DID clone (genesis style) also running 33 AWG kanthal with stainless steel mesh wick...
Found something special at the dollar tree store, 80 100% pure cotton rounds. It's the same cotton wool that gauze/balls/q-tips/batting are made of but they are compressed into flat discs making them perfect to work with. I boiled a dozen of them to use, I could make a new wick every day for all...
Well I squeezed out the extract from my 2 week cold steep Dominican cigar, got more than 10ml of brown extract from about 2 inches of cigar. Not sure there is much difference between the 5 minute hot steep and the 2 week cold steep extracts.
Mixed up one of my favorite recipes I posted in my...
A.D.V. Cigar Menthol Heaven
10% Dominican Cigar extract
3% Brown Sugar TFA
2% Carmel LA
2% menthol crystals
10% water
25% 60mg/ml nic/vg base
48% VG
Again, melting the menthol crystals only takes running hot water over the bottle for 30 seconds to a minute after everything is mixed.
I've had some cigar and pg that I had steeping for 2 weeks extracted today. I mixed up my ADV menthol everyone loves substituting the comm. tobacco with the cigar extract I made and it turned out really great.

Take your tracking number from stamps and go to the usps site to track it. Stamps has only ever said if it was shipped or not, always had to go to the usps to see actual tracking. If it doesn't come up with anything, check back later as it may not have been accepted yet.
Actually the 3 ml ones were before I figured out how to press all the extract out of the tobacco. I have a 60 ml batch steeping that was made with the half of shot glass method and it turned out great so I must of gotten 10 ml out of that one. I basically added enough pg to the tobacco to make...
Well my seed steeping experiment turned out successful. It only took a couple days for the fresh mixe's to turn dark, only been a week and they are the same color as if they steeped a month. The flavors seem to confirm it works. My tropical spice mix is a dark orange color just like the first...
V Ninja, I made this thread as a place to help one another with the chinese did clone. Your posts seem quite rude and snobby, so if you can't voice your opinion without doing so you're more than welcome to start a separate thread.
Real pipe tobacco extract is like that lol. Real pipe tobacco has been fermented and has sticky additives to give it flavor, it does clog up an attie about 4 times faster than normal. Tastes darn good with a fresh wick/coil though. Try mixing 5% extract, that's all it takes for that flavor and...
If you don't have a multimeter or a device with short circuit protection don't mess with ss mesh because you will have shorts. I use a twist myself, but i have an ego passthrough (no battery- direct power source) that has amazing short circuit protection. Even if the multimeter doesn't pick up a...
Half of the atties in your blog are made in china. I see the newer posts looks like you're using higher class stuff now. You don't use your vivi nova, did clone, and other genesis clones anymore?
First pic shows before any mods, the other 2 pics after all my mods also with a ss mesh wick with a cotton wool core.
Well my wick needed replacing so I decided to do some more experimenting. So I decided to go with ss mesh, but this time I put in a cotton wool core inside the ss mesh. This...
