    Anybody Using A Kabuki?

    For what ever reason, the Zkoated Provari's are high polished before the zkote. The Kabuki's are left with a satin finish. The metal prep before the DLC is applied,decides whether it is high shine, or subdued. My all time Favorite watch is the DLC finished Panerai. It is a Dull, Pencil lead...

    Well, some are displayed in museums from time to time. I'm now retired for medical reasons. I do know if I wanted to buy one back, the prices on the collector market has gone crazy. Never thought they would be being traded and sold for thousands of dollars each. :eek: They were designed to be...

    Fragile? I dont' get what your saying. ZenKote is PVD Process, called DLC, which is Diamond Like Coating. It is the hardest coating known to man! the only thing harder is Diamond itself, and is not just a coating, but it actually permeates the surface of the steel. The only way to scratch it is...

    It says on the site that makes the Kabuki (HOH), that it IS Zenkote. They make it, Not Provape.

    Anybody Using A Kabuki?

    Odd, as I have had e-juice here at 36mg-24mg-12mg-6mg-and now 3mg. If a good supplier, mixes the flavors for the mg, there should be NO drop in flavor. I know there sure isn't from Vape Wild and ITC, and they are not outright premium High Dollar Juices. ;) But their quality is absolutely first...

    Your right. I do have a small machine shop here at the house. Do try what I suggested with the base and let me know how it goes. Perhaps you're just lucky and got a short screw. Some people have all the luck. Knife

    Try this, as having the screw in too far, can have you tighten the coil deeper into the chimney, remove the coil, screw it into the base, with the pin backed out a full turn. Put a few drops in, and test for fire. Or if your device has it, see if it's an open circuit or not. Don't screw the...

    Very good quality and finish. I was impressed. Didn't expect it to be made so well! Darn, I hit like on your post, and my usual light tremble of the hand, had me hit Like-Unlike-Like. Don't know why in heck I machineGun the buttons sometimes. Grrrrr!!! Oh, that was easy! Multi R's on a single...

    Oh No! You're having one of my days! good Grief! Ahh! Got-ya. I usually can find small grub screws at the hardware store, (ACE for instance). Just don't ask them for Grub Screws. That's a UK term. Here in the States they're called Set Screws. I tried the grub screw thing once, and the "Good O'l...
