firstly you need to cut your dead 901 .use a pipecutter does a great job, you should cut about 15mm from the bottom

pull out the inner part of the atty, leave it in while you cut,it will prevent the atty sleeve from bending.
you might need to wipe the inside down. i spray some brakedust spray then wipe it down

just push your male 801 connector into the sleeve
it goes in pretty easily, but once in it stays in :)

get a brass nail 22mmX1.6mm
1.7mm is better but i couldn't find the nails
so i coated the nail with leadless solder to get it to the right width
then cut the nail to the length of the closed adapter
i cut the nail so it waas practicly flat with the middle part of the connector on both sides

solder both end to block and make the nail connect perfectly

all you need to do now if file down the excess solder and make incisions to let airflow in the 801 connector
i use a router, makes thing really easy
there your done! :thumbs:

We are supposed to have a new tutorial section this fall. We are just trying to keep things organized so nothing gets lost. Thank you again for your contribution. It will come in handy for a lot of people.

Ok I have the lead free solder, the brass nail somewhere and plenty of atomisers to use but sadly, I haven't got a router or any skill heheee! Perhaps I would manage to make one of these wonderful adapters if I tried but I'll leave it to the experts :thumbs:


Thanks Tribal for stating that this is an adapter. I've been watching the thread hoping to find out what it is. It is very interesting to watch but just couldn't understand what I was looking at.

Do you have a Dremel? I use a Black and Decker rotary tool. It is better than the Dremel and a lot cheaper. All of the Dremel attachments fit it perfectly. Don't give up without trying. You just might surprise yourself.

Oh you go girl. You will be surprised what you can do. Believe me the hardest part will be getting started. Even if you screw up your first attempt you will learn something and get it right on the second go for sure. At least this is how I do it.:w00t:

You can do that girl. It isn't hard. You may not even have to if you have the right size nail. Don't touch the iron to see if it is hot enough though. 8-o

Watch this video,fire up the iron and get going. When you are done post the pictures. You will be amazing.
