    Thanks so much! Very helpful for the nervous novice. :).

    Is this reasonable . . . JamiD?

    Mmmmmm . . . I love baking bread (almost as much as I love cutting off a thick slab while it's still warm, and then slathering it with good Maine butter). :) Maybe we should beg JimiD to create a Fresh Bread eliquid? Yum-O!

    Is this reasonable . . . JamiD?

    Thank you all so much! I just put in my order, and it came to EXACTLY $100.00. You don't see that very often. :) Now I just to have hunt up some basic measuring gear, and maybe a cardboard box to put it all in. This is turning into quite an adventure, I must say. But if it turns out...

    Is this reasonable . . . JamiD?

    Oh, thanks. Those look perfect. And what do you all do about mixing up the nic and base? Do you do it all at once, into a single mammoth bottle, or do you mix it up in smaller batches, or what? I'm trying to picture the scale on which I'll be working here so I can figure out the appropriate...

    Is this reasonable . . . JamiD?

    Thanks, guys! (This is quite an excellent forum, I must say.) :) I figured I'd buy all the syringes and beakers and stuff at one of those one-stop places; they seem to have everything. Can anybody recommend one with good prices? And do I need big glass bottles for storage, or does...

    Is this reasonable . . . JamiD?

    Okay! My Vapor Tek shopping cart is pretty full, but I don't want to check out till I'm sure I've got a reasonable bunch of stuff. So here it is: ~ 20 Inawera flavors ~ 120ml 100mg nicotine. ~ 10 x 50ml bottles of "Inawera VPG Plus Base: 70% PG + 26% VG + 3% demi-water + 1% etylomaltol" =...

    Sorry if I missed it. But asking about where to get high quality ingredients.

    Gotcha. Thank you for working on it! :) And when you've perfected that one, you can commence work on a few of these: Polish Desserts and Sweets - top 22 desserts from Poland Heh, heh, heh.:evil:

    Sorry if I missed it. But asking about where to get high quality ingredients.

    Well, now there will be two. :toast: That's quite an offer! Thank you. I just might take you up on it. I'm also very pleased to hear that you like the cherry. I love cherries in all forms in real life (and especially in the Polish candied version covered in dark chocolate) but I've never...

    Sorry if I missed it. But asking about where to get high quality ingredients.

    I never really had any interest in DIY until I came across the Inawera company by accident. The flavors sound fab, and - Hooray! - they're Polish (like me) which means I can try my hand at old time favorites like honey and wild strawberries and plum vodka. Yyyyyyess! So, before I order...

    How often do you change your wick/coil?

    Do you mean those crappy little silica things? If so, then I'd say YES, for sure. I use cotton because I love the taste, and because the wicking is awesome. The vapor seems denser and creamier than either silica or mesh, and it holds tons of juice. :) If you poke around on the...

    How often do you change your wick/coil?

    I currently use organic cotton in big ol' honkin' 26 gauge macro coils, so changing wicks is a breeze. I'm a bit of a psycho, so I do this every day or every other day, though this would probably seem excessive to a lot of people. I just really like a clean, fresh taste. The coils themselves...

    Your Single Best Advice for Newbies

    YouTube can be incredibly helpful or terribly confusing, depending on what you watch. Start with a good introduction, and save the fancy builds and smexy mechs for later. :) I recommend Todd's intro video to everyone, because it's so simple and sensible: An Introduction to Electronic...

    UK Reports on e-cigs.

    Amazing how simple it all seems when public health officials actually concern themselves with . . . y'know, public health. Thanks for posting, Bobbilly. I'm sure Michael Taylor, our own M̶o̶n̶s̶a̶n̶t̶o̶ ̶l̶o̶b̶b̶y̶i̶s̶t̶ FDA Chief, will find it fascinating reading. :facepalm:

    Why are drippers so common as far as RBA's/RDA's?

    LOL. I build everything with cotton now, just like a dripper. So no, that's not it. :) But seriously: why do you care? You guys actually sound quite annoyed about this!

    Okay, so I bought an IGO-L RDA. Now what???

    E-Liquids You Continue to Re-Order

    Oh, right - Black Cherry Dulcet! I keep meaning to try that, but yup - I've always got a cart full of coffee n' cake. Thanks for reminding me. I wonder how it would go with Dark Chocolate . . . :2cool:

    Why are drippers so common as far as RBA's/RDA's?

    Eh. Tanks leak - or at least mine do. Perhaps I'm simply a barbarian. :) But taste . . . no contest. Except maybe for the Pulse G (which delivers on taste in spades!) I use tanks only for convenience. They're fine for bold, unsubtle flavors, but the rest really do taste best in a...

    E-Liquids You Continue to Re-Order

    I agree on all points. I love fruit in real life, but there are very few fruit vapes that don't seem terribly artificial to me. If you like natural rather than candied fruit flavors, I'd recommend Highbrow's Orange de Sangre (insanely realistic blood orange) and Strawberry Lemonade (very...

    Why are drippers so common as far as RBA's/RDA's?

    1.) Taste 2.) Compactness 3.) Versatility 4.) Neatness 5.) Ease of changing flavors 6.) Ease of changing wicks But mostly it's taste. :)
