    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    I thought about using a stepped bit, but was worried that it would wander off center since there is only one cutting tooth. Wound up using a 22mm hole saw to get a consistent cutting pattern, and there was some box hardware that had to be cut too. The tricky part was that the internal depth...

    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    I'm using Envirotex by Environmental Technology Jewelry Resin | Shop Hobby Lobby, and the third time was a charm. You have to be exact with the mixing ratio, and use a plastic jewelry mold as a form for the back side of the window (resin wont bond to the plastic but bonds to EVERYTHING else)...

    Do you fiddle with your thingy?

    Thanks man. The DNA 20 is a cool little board to play with and works very well in alot of applications. The stealth mods provide alot of power in a tiny package, I'm a little too clumsy to put one together, much less keep track of it though. I've lucked out and havent broken a screen building...

    Do you fiddle with your thingy?

    That mod was a beast to build and is solid as a rock. the internal depth of the box is 21mm so the hole for the tank actually cuts into the sidewalls 0.5mm on both sides, very dificult for me to drill... my one in a million

    Do you fiddle with your thingy?

    this is my 2nd DNA 20 build, and im starting my third. I used a Hammond 1590G diecast box that i hand filed to square, and bolted in an aluminum angle partition. Another member fabricated a bolt in SS 510 connection that made the mod possible. made the window for the screen and dot for the usb...

    Do you fiddle with your thingy?

    Hey OCD, think I remember mention of a 22mm tank in the works but still a ways off, is that still going on? just finished a mod that can take a recessed 22mm tank and yours are the only carto tanks ill buy now.

    Nicotine users not alone anymore in the health insurance game...

    My wifes policy is offered at a great price, but if you fail to go in for an annual checkup ($0 co-pay) your annual rate increases. There is no factoring according to patient health, you just have to go in for an annual I think thats a good approach to promoting basic health, not penalizing...

    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    round 2 with the jewelry resin is a failure so far. let it cure for 24 hours and it still a little rubbery, think the base/hardner ratio was off by a little. going kayaking today so I'm gonna let it sit in the window sill and see what happens, if it doesn't cure I'll use pipettes to measure...

    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    I get mine at http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/1590G/HM841-ND/409858 they have painted ones too, but the sides have a slight angle to them so I like to file them to square. Not completely necessary though. The door can be a pain to work with as far as cutting out the window is...

    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    first attempt at the casting resin window was a failure, all my fault though. I decided to mess with the drying product this morning after it had only cured for 5 hours (12 hours soft cure, 24 hours full cure). good thing is its completly clear and bubble free on to attempt 2

    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    thats a really good idea with the window on the side, but im not gonna mess with the wiring to mount the LEDs. Took a while to position all of the wires and work the soldered connections into place to keep it a little organized.

    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    thanks guys im gonna keep my eyes peeled for a spacer that fits, that would help finish it. I was thinking about cutting a slit to see juice levels, but it wouldnt be in line with the screen and i think it would throw off the look. I might do a few tapped holes though

    big bore recessed DNA 20 box

    Another Hammond 1590G. Been planning this one since I finished my first one. Wouldn't have gotten it done without some great ideas and sourcing help from a fellow vaper . Still have to set the window, gonna use jewelry resin, and glue in a screw head. Hand filed the sides square. Dont really...
