    -High-End Mechanicals and Atomizers-Pictures & Discussion Round 2-

    Looking great! I'm waiting on district f5ve right now to ship the SOISZ24 atty I ordered to turn my subzero mod into a hybrid. Copper mod, black ceracoate atty. didn't want to have to deal with cleaning more copper than the mod itself lol. Plus, I know that black on copper already looks great...

    what kind of "machine" sld i get?

    Walk into a store, see what their starter kits are (most are sub ohm these days) & compare the pricing to online pricing. I'd say get an RX200 based on price, but it takes 3x 18650 batteries. As for an atomizer, Smok tfv4 / tfv4 mini / tfv4 micro should do you well. It's a tank that comes with...

    Glad to see you're feeling better & happy belated birthday! I'm working on some coil concepts at the moment, which are really not easy... One being what I'm going to call "the diamond" & the pyramid. I already made a diamond but it didn't quite turn out as I planned. That's great that you're...

    It's the 24 slam cap. I was just quoting what it was called on his Instagram account. I have one, my pre-release cap is the same difference in height as my black ceracoate cap & it pretty much goes down as far as possible to the screws.

    Okay so browsing through Instagram the other day I stumbled upon the new Kennedy 24 superslammed cap & fat dragon drip tips. Now I'm starting to think that's what my beta cap is when I compare it to my black ceracoated cap height. Those fat dragon tips look sweet though, may have to snag me a...

    Contest rules were no editing the words in your post or editing comments. One picture, no more. And there was a tier system, tier1 was 1-999 followers, tier2 was 1000-something, & tier3 was like absurd number of followers. We're all still waiting on the judges decisions. 3 winners per tier, 9...

    Haha that's what makes me think he's cheating in the competition. That and @Retro138 ran his picture through a plug in for photoshop called Genuine Fractals & everything points to a terrible photoshop transplant job. Basically the coil was photoshopped onto the deck. And if you've seen his...

    So this was my first rendition of the reverse framed round wire. Alien specs, 4x .4x.1mm on each side of 26g in the middle. The alien wrap is a hand wrapped 3x38g fused Clapton that I pulled off something else and rewrapped. Hence why it looks so sloppy/jagged/saw-ish. Incredible vape though...

    Whoah so off topic from blue raspberry haha. Does anyone have a link to where I could find TFA Blue Raspberry for a decent price? The One Stop Blue Raspberry Slush is amazing. Absolutely amazing.

    Thanks. For simple builds like single 20g or 22g or parallels, there's always enough room for me to fit the leads through the centerpost and clip after installing the second coil. So to avoid having to hold up the first coil installed I'll bend the excess lead vertically at the post & the side...

    It's the same flavoring! Atleast I'm 90% sure. I think Brainstorm uses too high a PG (30%) & flavor ratio. I mix mine at 90/10 VG/PG & 20% flavor. They must be mixing 30% flavor at 70/30 VG/PG, since this is a 67% VG flavor it would make sense that they would use 30-33% flavoring in their juice...

    I had a v3.1, what went wrong with yours? I broke my center pin in half & sent an email out to hobocustoms showing a picture of what happened and he sent me a new pin, insulator & post for free. Try sending them an email to see if they can do anything for ya. As for your birthday...did you want...

    So i want everyone's opinion on this image. It was posted by some "newbie builder" @samir_builds on IG. He claims it was taken using only a phone camera (no macro lens), in broad daylight, & he fully colored it. Things here don't add up to me & it looks like a total photoshop job. Thoughts...

    2 separate coils, not a sleeper, just a clean install. This is 26g framed 4x .2x.2mm lightly twisted square wire with a 34g alien wrap. Not a sleeper either. 2 separate coils. What I do before installing coils is push the leads through and see if I have enough room to fit another in the...

    Brought to you in technicolor. 5x .5x.1mm/24/same as other side. Wrapped in a .3x.1mm/spaced 44g Tsuka. Ohm'd out at .05Ω single coil. It fires on my Rolo haha

    I saw that tugboat 24, I wonder if the cap would fit on a Kennedy 24. Maybe that way, I could avoid spending $95 on a Pourboy Customs cap & get a full atty for the price. Other than that, I've fit stupid wide builds in my Kennedy 24's centerpost. The thickest I've fit cleanly was a 28g/4 ply...

    @Jvincent516 @RedheadedBStarD I'll post some pics later today when I start building on how I got the Tsuka. I also did a section of .3x.1/44g clapton Tsuka. I literally just started making them, the pic I posted was my third go-around after getting it down on my second. The pic in this post was...
