    JonboyUSMC's Lava Tanks

    Just checking in again. Off to hospital in the morning for a CT scan. How's all my east coast friends doing. Hope you're all out of harms way or getting out of the way of the storm.

    Does that have a gold batt connector? If it does, its an Ikenvape. I find that over time the hole gets closed up in the carto from the filler swelling. This isn't just an Ikenvape issue, I've found that it happens with everything I've tried.

    Pm replied. Sorry to hear that. I think it has something to do with when they extrude the tubing. This only the third one I've seen fail in 8 months of building tanks.

    Not much I can do other than take my meds and ride this thing out. I run the lathe from a comfy chair anyway. :-)

    Got the list in my hands now and I'm really looking forward to all these folks getting a tank. I was hard at it tonight and got 1/4 of them through the first operation. I would really like to thank strprswpr and Ever1ast for taking this project on. These guys went above and beyond the call to...

    I'm off to visit God this morning and then I'll get a jump on making the next batch. This may take a few extra days, because this is going to be the biggest and most colorful batch yet.

    There should be 8 more magenta bliss coming, as long as my lathe doesn't eat them like it ate 3 tanks last week. I'm going to start on the next batch Sunday. I'm hoping to hear what people's opinions are on the looser fits before I jump in and make another batch.

    Those are Boge's. I have great luck with these cartos. I don't understand where the dry hit is coming from.

    I'll second that. You've go to pre-fill these. The liquid naturally likes to wick down, not up. You'll get filler taste then if the top of the cartos dry. These are Boge 3.0 ohm I bought from C.C.V. The money I make from these pretty much goes right back into the vaping community. I could buy...

    I start out small on the hole size just in case there are people out there that vape a high PG liquid. You can always make it bigger, but you can never make it smaller.

    Really looking for some feedback from this batch. These are a lot looser than I like. I just want everyone else's opinions on them. Good or bad, I'm always trying to improve on these. Next batch is getting a thicker flange on the bottom cap to make it a little stronger.

    I like a punched hole much better. You can start out with a small hole and increase it if you need to,to let more juice in. There is also less chance for tearing the inner o-ring by dragging it across a cut slot.

    No tanks until at least next weekend. I've got some delrin to do, and help out some people who accidentally cracked the flanges on theirs. PLEASE do not pry on the flanges that meet at the top/bottom of the tube. It's there strictly for aesthetics. The material these are made of is tough, but...
