I forgot what I paid for the Mini A7 I purchased in wee hours this morning. Just checked invoice.... a little over $20 US per. To make the join a little more attractive something else can be "glued" to the join, on outside, after sealing the join thoroughly. But for now a slice of carto condom, over the join, should work.

If it's same SS as the grownup A7, cutting it will be rather difficult without some serious power tools :(

There are a few 'nauts here with some serious tools. I have some myself by can't get to them. I have, in distant past, hack-sawed SS (very slowly). I'd be willing to donate an A7 or two to someone who feels confident doing the mod.

JB weld is great. I use the black and red which mixes fine metal strands of steel with the epoxy. It's amazing stuff...strong like bull.

JB Weld is amazing...that's what is holding the Zmax tubes together...I don't think I could break this apart with a hammer...

Video on Youtube I forgot I posted. Very lightly torched A7. The longer you torch the darker the resulting color. It was a very rainy day with a short break in rain. The purple color on cap is not nearly as purple and dark as shows in video. My goal is to get consistent "brass" look whole rba. Torching is really easy. That's how they get the "black" SS.

I was asked by a "lurker" REOnaut about using A7 and A7 Mini on eGo batteries. Yes there are "other" ways to vape. So I loaded DH's eGo batteries with A7, A7 Mini, and Surface for a picture. There is a tiny gap between bottom of RBA and added eGo collar used to give a more finished look. Although the A7 standard is too large for our Mini REO catch-cups, 1.0 and 2.0, (Surface, Mini A7, Hornet fit fine) I advised getting the A7 for dripping as the well on it is larger.
