    Pre-torching kanthal for rebuildables?

    I need to wind some kanthal onto a smaller spool for my travel box (I'm using a metal sewing machine bobbin). While I'm at it, is there any reason I can't torch it before putting it onto the new spool? It'd be nice to eliminate the torch from my travel box.

    Vulcanite stem: terrible taste.

    I picked up a couple of churchwarden style vulcanite stem blanks from a pipe making supplier, and have tried my hand at shaping / finishing a stem. The final results leave a lot to be desired in terms of design and symmetry, but it polished up well, bent reasonably well, and looks decent if...

    6 Months!

    My wife and I knew we needed to quit, yet somehow managed to continue putting it off 'till the fall, or after Christmas, or... Looking back on it, I realize how much anxiety this caused me, and how much I really didn't want to quit. Running out of cigarettes at an inopportune moment was bad...

    My Turn! Another DIY pipe

    I've been collecting tools for years. Years. I'm not talking about buying collectable tools and putting them on display somewhere, I'm talking about gathering a home shop full of tools used for hobby level woodworking. There's no problem there, right? Wrong. The only thing I ever use them...

    ePipeMods B&M Grand Opening, Lawrenceville Ga

    I normally don't post the same thing across multiple forums, but given the specialty nature of e-pipes (and the fan club it inspires), this one's worth an exception :) https://www.facebook.com/events/565883076803710/ If you're anywhere near Lawrenceville Ga, you should stop by and check out...

    Another battery explodes

    Ego sized battery. Details are sketchy at best. I heard this one while driving in to work today; it was reported the explosion "shook the windows". Woman says E-cigarette exploded, shot flames 4 feet across... | www.wsbradio.com

    Any "Must-Try" flavors from Mountain Oak Vapors?

    My wife and I will be passing by Mountain Oak Vapors in a couple of weeks, and I'd like to stop in if there's time. Does anyone have an absolute favorite, "Must Have" type of e-liquid from Mountain Oak? I've read a lot of reviews and have a lot of things in mind for both of us, but I know I'll...

    eGo-V Soft button repair / replacement?

    So I bought one of these a few weeks ago: EGO-V 650mAh . I really like it, except for the STUPID rubber-band switch which is now broken. The hole for the button has a sharp edge which caused the band to split. For a time I was able to use it like that, but the button has finally separated...

    Using gift or prepaid cards for online e-cig purchases?

    After one fraud attempt and a canceled CC to go with it (for once, thanks BOA!), I've decided to pursue other forms of payment that are not linked to my checking account. At this time, I also do not want to sign up for an additional account or CC with my bank (or any other). Below are my...

    Containers for mixing small samples and flavor tests?

    I'm getting ready to start DIY mixing, and I see it's recommended that I mix up my individual flavors in varying percentages so that I can sample each one and get a basic idea of flavors and proportions. That sounds like an excellent idea, but I have no idea what to put those mixes in. If I...

    RBA for standard eGo battery?

    I'm thinking about my first RBA, but i only have standard eGo batteries. Will an RBA work well on one of these, or do I need to wait 'till I pick up a mod with higher voltage? I was thinking about an igo-l or an octapus, but am open to other budget-friendly (and beginner friendly) suggestions.

    DIY mixing vessels, and a liquid nic question

    Hello all, I've been researching to prepare for my first DIY E-liquid adventure, but haven't found much info about mixing containers. Do most of you tend to mix in the final storage bottle, or is it better to find some sort of small beaker / flask / whatever in which to mix ingredients, and...

    EVOD users: What's your coil preference for a standard eGo battery

    I've been using my EVOD for the last week with a 2.2 ohm coil on a standard eGo battery, and I'm starting to wonder if I would be better off with the 1.8 ohm version. It doesn't seem like I get quite as much of a hit from it as I do the from the starter kit clearos. EVOD users, what do you...

    Best delivery system for thick juice?

    Hello all, Newbie here (as if you couldn't tell) with a question about vaping thick e-juice. I'm currently using Vision non-rebuildable clearomizers with my eGo-T 650 batteries. So far, so good, except for my favorite: coffee. The clearomizer is getting clogged and harder to draw, and I'm...

    Coffee: PG/VG ratios plus a few hardware questions

    Hello all, This weekend I bought an eGo-T starter kit with Vision clearomizers. I've (so far) found the coffee flavor to be my favorite, and want to pick up a few more from different vendors. The problem is that most vendors are asking for my preferred ration of PG to VG, and I have no idea...
