    Lol. I just realized I had it upside down :)

    3D model completed. Not bad for the price.

    Going to start my first mod this week. Design rough draft.

    So Ive messed around with the prototype for a while, and I like everything about it except it knocks over easy (as bap said). Going with a shorter fatter design. I think I will give a 3d printed prototype a run for a few days before I commit to building the case. My fingers are still raw from...

    Interesting results. Im glad I went with lipo instead of 18650's for my DNA20D mod per your recommendation. 2 900mah 15c lipo's in parallel are giving me 4.1v with an 8ohm coil at the 20w setting. Can't wait to see if the 65c will produce better results.

    Still havent slept. Made another case off the same template and I have all the internals held together with prototype putty. Everything is easily removed. Wanted to try it out. Also started on two more cases and making my own 510 connectors thanks to Baps. I never really accounted for wiring in...

    Going to start my first mod this week. Design rough draft.

    Im finished for the day. Had a minor set back. I started off with 1/8" wall thickness; roughly. That was super strong. Went thinner with 1/16, and that was strong also. Ended up at 1/20 and that also survived my vice. I only needed a tiny bit of room to add two more batteries making 5 total so I...

    Started on a test piece of aluminum. Never really worked with metal before so I wanted to practice first. I can fit 2700 mah into this. Still need to sand the rough edges from the cut outs. 7072 aluminum isnt butter like I thought it was.

    I have to throw away every snip and wipe every smudge while I work. Heavy OCD. At least my soldering iron stays immaculate though. I wont get around to making my aluminum cases till the weekend. I have to work on it in the morning and night since summer weather in Phoenix AZ makes my garage...

    You are correct. The body is stainless steel.

    Received more parts today and began soldering. Half way through soldering components.

    I feel okay now. I should have my boards tomorrow. I got the first 4 packages of parts today. I ordered the last 3 silver 510 connectors from madvapes. Would have liked to get 6. Digi-key split my shipment for whatever reason, so I should get the rest of my switches and fuses tomorrow.

    My worries with the switch are just speculation. This switch might very well last forever. Ive vaped almost 10 ml in the last 5 hours with the 20 and I have to say I am loving it. I still prefer my 19 though. All the brass parts are easily accessed for cleaning. Im going to dread breaking apart...

    You cant see it, but my eyes are squinting at you. I ordered friday night. Im guessing they got slammed over the weekend. No worries, just anxious to get building.

    So if I ordered friday, they should ship wed? So I can expect it maybe friday/saturday then. Do they usually send tracking or ship without notice? On another note, I love digikey. My 4th order and they always ship same day. Thx bap

    Nothing wrong with the lock, but I dont think the floating spring is very safe. Just speculation though. Bend a spring enough times and it will slowly retain the bend shape.

    Done with one. Just like bmay said, the switch design is a accident waiting to happen. I may sell my 3 20's.

    I cant wait to get these boards in my hand. Evolv seems pretty slow at shipping.

    The height of the part of the positive pin that touches the atty is tiny. Not much to work with. I was hoping it was longer. There is no way im going to be able to fit a dna 20 in there unless I settle for an 18350 replaceable battery. Too little mah and c rating for my tastes. If I keep the...

    I shaved the delrin housing down a few mm at the top. Shaved the positive pin down on the side that rests inside the copper spring to make up for the lost height of the delrin housing. Used a donut spacer where I shaved the delrin down to keep everything in place. I did all these measurements...
