I might be misunderstanding, I've read it mentioned before though, you're cutting channels in the positive post insulator? How does it not short?

You just cut a thin channel, the post and the pin are still tight and don't touch any metal. I wish I had a picture.
Here is a closed thread with more than you need to know about modifying attys for bottom feeding: The BF experiment | E-Cigarette Forum
Here is another thread: Convert full size RDA to Bottom Feeder | E-Cigarette Forum
This should help.

The delrin is hard and durable. You cut all the way through. Here I drew a couple of crappy pics...
I just wondered if we could un screw the OWL 510 screw and screw it back into another atty...
The owl screw hole doesn't have anywhere to go in another atty. You need a hollow positive pin with a side hole for filling draining. There is lots of discussion in those threads I linked. Slotting is the easiest. Drilling out the pin and post is harder but more durable.
I was just thinking about my plume veil that it has a 510 connection that is a small brass screw but the juice has to be able
to go up into the drip well after it leaves the screw so this plan will not work for me--slotting sounds like the way to go.

Just Modded My Plume Veil to work with my Smokless Owl Squonker.
I unscrewed the bottom 510 brass screw and pulled the positive top posts out and took my Dremmel and put in a small tiny needle type grinder
on the drummel. I then stuck the needle bit into the open hole and proceeded to cut a slot in the insulator.
A big piece of the insulator came out and I thought sureas heck that I ruined it.
Much to my surprise the insulator is a 2 piece unit with the top piece coming out from the top and the bottom half comes out the bottom.
I took these 2 insulators halfs and finished the cut and reinstalled the two halves so that the slots would align up with each other.
The thing squonks great and much surprised that I could accomplish this.
I want to try my Stillaire and a few others but will enjoy this squonking Plum Veil for now.
Very pleased-----Happy Squonking to everybody-----thetrucker

Working nicely...

That looks really good on there,and i'll bet it performs better than the one that was included too.
Yes This Plume Veil does perform better than the big open OWL atomizer that
came with the deal.
Starting to look at my Stillaire a few minutes ago and thinking strongly about
a possible mod job...hahahahah

Finally got my Zenith V2.5 today. Super easy to build and works great! Big plus is it sits nice and flush...
Hi Btsmokincat---Looks real nice glad to hear that it sits flush and works good.
Looks great sitting on top of the smokless owl. I am always looking for something
that looks good.
Will keep this zenith in mind.

Just got done working on my Stillaire and now it feeds from the bottom.
Drove out the center pin from the top by taking out the wire anchor/post screw and
inserting a small jewlers screwdriver into the post hole and striking the end of
the handle with a pair of pliers.
center post came out and I slotted both sides of the pin with my drummel
cut off wheel.
It works good now. second pic is the Stillaire bottom modified for bottom feeding. Third image is quad coil 32 guage 5 wraps

bits at Wal Mart.

Juice not flowing the best in to my stillaire and so with the advice from Quigsworth cut an additional channel
from one side of 510 positive pin to the other and now juice flowing like wow.
