Air flow holes too small.

[deeskinna]

I just got my IGO-W in the mail and I find the air flow holes are too small (I see other people don't like the stock size either).

I was wondering if I can just take a regular drill and make them a little bigger or if I need an actual precision drill (I think that's what they're called)

I drilled my IGO-W to 5/64, I believe, but I used a cobalt bit in a cordless drill. It's a bit harder to do it with a standard HSS bit.

I don't have much if any experience doing this but I would recommend a precision drill. >.>

Check your local vape shop. Mine will drill out air flow holes.

I prefer the Titainium Nitride bits... ( the gold ones) and use a slow speed, dont want to heat up the SS... it gets harder when heated

I used metal cutting tools on my Dremel to widen out some air holes in the past.

Igo w has cheap metal. I drilled mine with a wood drill bit. It lefts some burs on the inside but nothing a file couldn't fix. Just go easy on the pressure. Let the drill do the work.

It does work with a simple drill it jus takes a little bit , I used a 1/16 titanium drill bit , I'll show you a picture of it later.
