Are you done stocking up?

[Fozzy71]

That's a dandy, Saippenu!

In fact, it looks very much like my 28-year-old one. Mine was manufactured in the Land of the Yugo Automobile (Serbia), but it's just kept freezing along with no repairs or problems.

I do suggest you get a cheapie freezer thermometer. They're $6-$8 on amazon. Inexpensive verification of your freezer's temperature setting.

I grabbed one today from bed bath and beyond for $6 I believe and was able to get the temp fine tuned in short order. Thought about getting one of the wireless ones so I could monitor it, and be sure its working, without having to go downstairs or open it but passed since it was $30.

There could always be a new support group established:
VSSA (vaping Supplies Stashers Anonymous)

Although...some members definitely wouldn't be too anonymous, even if they established new identities!

You wouldnt be talking about me would you?

MMA could sell them as ceiling fan chain pulls...(they're the right shape, hole through the middle, etc). Would just need to come up with a removable bottom piece where some type of stopper or nut would be, that would keep it on the end of the chain. Shouldn't be too hard to come up with.

I got flavors, and more sweetener than I will likely ever need....

and about 800 ml (420ml not shown in the fridge) of pre-mixed varieties and combinations so I probably won't be putting these flavors to much use for a while, though I am really tempted to try a batch of the TFA Vanilla Bourbon all by it's lonesome some time soon. Sounds like it would go great with a pour from my liquor cabinet.

*Cheap spice stand from BB&B I grabbed for them until I can go shopping for some sort of cosmetic tray that will prevent them from tipping if they get bumped.

Believe it or not, my favorite drip tips are the ones that came with all the Vivi Nova's that were my preferred tank at one time. I still have a bunch of them around....just in case. I use the drip tips on all the tanks that I have purchased since then. Take off the drip tip from the Kayfun, pop the Vivi Nova drip tip on. I'm a happy vaper!

Funny you mention Vivi Nova.

I get 10 aluminium drip tips that fit tge vivi Nova on Fasttech for about $5.

They are 17 mm tall with a convex shape that fits my lips perfectly.

I LOVE them. I used then on everything but the Goblin Mini.

many,,,, many many years ago i paid quite a bit for just a few beads..........they could even call their beads the 'mis shapes' or whatever.....or not.. to survive you must adapt. i am sure they know that. the arts/craft community is where they need to hide out..... fairy garden chimneys.. ... dabs of color,, beads/jewelry,, heck they could even aim for 'fishing line weights'.. it doesnt matter.. they need to create a pinterest account for all of 'those' interests to help establish their new 'customer'.--for the 'govt's eyes'

its no dif than some of us hitting up Sally's for rayon,,, and the hair dressers are looking at us kind of funny

BELIEVE ME!

I know the feeling. I went to Sally's for Rayon. I wanted a small starter bit of Rayon. Tge cashier said "What are you wanting it for?" when i told her you woukd have thought i had two heads.

Looks like the sweetener is the biggest bottle you have. What size is that? I still have sweetener(a 10 ml bottle) from when I first started vaping about 6 years ago..and I do use from time to time...a little goes a long way.

Love the Rayon. Hate nosy clerks.

way too big. 120ml as it was such a small price jump from 30ml to 120 I said eff it.... then I started reading recipes about 1 or 2 drops per 10ml... gonna have to give some away I think, but I don't know anyone locally yet that does DIY. I also got 15mL sucralose 10% in PG + 15mL ethyl maltol 10% in PG from the NN DIY starters kit on the bottom row.

lol,, maybe we should have said something about wrapping up a body,, or dragging a body,, or cleaning up a bloody body.. all kinds of fun with those.. its that darn 911 call the clerk makes that ruins the fun

Well the good new is - it will keep. I suggest transferring 10-15 ml(from your big bottle) into a smaller bottle 10-15 ml. It will be much easier to work with. Then just put your big bottle at the back of a dark cabinet. You don't want to put in fridge because it will crystallize as will both the sucralose and em.

We now know who to call if we need some sweetner

Let's see, amongest us we've got the nic covered, sweetner, drip tips, Provari's. What else is at least one person overstocked with?

OH! OH! Tell them I'd be more than happy to test 1 out for them, too...to see how it works as a chain pull and otherwise, of course.

I've also just been rooting through my jewelry-making supplies, since I posted last, and I KNOW now what they could use that would make it work! Would be a decorative accent to it, on top & bottom, and could be in a variety of different finishes, shapes, sizes, & colors...and isn't just a simple bead! Might add about 15-20 cents (maximum) to the cost for them to make the driptip ...into a chain pull., but also easy-peasy for someone to not use it for that after receiving it!

Yes, thanks. I have a few 15 and 30 ml unicorns and plan on ordering more soon (and other/bigger bottles) to break some stuff down and for future recipes/tests. Broke down a small bottle of nic today into a 30ml unicorn and got my first 250ml pg/vg bottles into squeeze bottles. Tomorrow I work on breaking down the gallons of vg/pg into all my 500ml bottles (need more) and topping off the squeeze bottles.

I also made a bottle of unflavored NN today that I used to cut down the vg and cut the sweetness of a local house line combination that was hurting my chest when vaped too much (cant do 80vg) and it helped beased on my RDA testing so far. Tomorrow I want to re-wick the RDA and try the unflavored first off out of curiosity.

I have heard (but never have tried) that vaping unflavored on your RDA is a great way to clean it between flavor testing. Maybe you won't need to re-wick if what I heard its true. Can't hurt to test the theory.

 

[Fozzy71]

Thanks, still getting a bit of the berries from the BRY4 in my sweet tobacco combination juice I used later. Will give it a try tomorrow.

edit: I actually want to try unflavored on fresh wick just so I know what it's like for reference but still appreciate the suggestion even if I don't try it tomorrow.

 

[JCinFLA]

@Fozzy71 - Did I read correctly above, that you're using 30mL unicorn bottles to break down some of your nic base, and some of your flavorings into them? If yes, you may want to consider using glass 1oz. (30mL) bottles instead. They can be bought for less than you're probably paying for the unicorn plastic ones, and I'd trust nic base and flavorings in glass for longterm, before choosing plastic.
