Somewhere out there
This is my juice makin' case. It's a beauty case I got at Goodwill for $5. Flavorings in the door and first 3 drawers. Syringes, needles, test kit, small bottles for test batches and eye droppers in the bottom drawer. Larger flavorings for my ADV, Nic base, gloves, beakers, etc to the left of the drawers. I have vape stickers that are supposed to be all over the case. lol

Heh, after breaking down a test liter from rts and spending an hour at the mixing table having some fun the postman shows up...3 more liters of rts and a package from FT loaded with drip tips, bases, various sized o rings, tank sections, and bell caps is at my door.

I didn't even want to open the boxes. I'm a bit burned out on dealing with all this stuff. Thankfully all liters going forward will go right from plastic to 32oz glass. No more tedious breakdowns for probably 5 years.

I'm pretty sure I'll be at the parts table tomorrow creating a new frankenfun masterpiece. Lol. I've switched to mostly Teflon drip tips lately. I really like them and they're really cheap at FT.

I just broke down another liter for long term storage. I found one of the easiest ways to fill the 120ml bottles I've ever done. I used a 16oz squeeze bottle like this one:

If anyone doesn't want to wait to get that 1 from Amazon, and they don't care if it's alittle smaller (12oz. instead of 16oz.), I got 2 like that at WalMart. They have the pointed top and red cap, and are HDPE plastic. I think it was $2.50 + tax for a pack of 2. I've been using them for VG and PG dispensing while mixing, but I may go get some more for breaking up my liters of Nic, too.

Super idea there, Bob Chill! :thumbs:

    I have some from RTS still waiting to be re-bottled. I dread it, it is fiddly work and I am not a tinkerer in any sense of the word. Last of my flavoring orders came today and some other stuff is due tomorrow and tbh, I can't even remember what it is. I need to stop yesterday.

    Thanks for the ideas, wonder if the ones at the beauty supply would be ok? I am sure they are not food safe but only using to transfer. What do you think? I am not near a walmart.

    I feel kinda dumb not thinking about this before. I've been using squeeze bottles and beakers for a while for pg/vg and big batches. When I was getting ready to split it up I already had my pouring beaker and funnel cleaned and ready...and then I was like "hang on a sec...I think I have a shortcut..."

    I loved being able to hold both in my hands right over a sink. And pouring from the liter to the bottle was super easy without a funnel. It's the first time I didn't have to wipe up a single drip.

    Should be totally fine. The nic will be in the bottle for a total of 5-10 minutes. I'm sure the bottles are rated for things far more corrosive/reactive than nic base.

    I've gotten pretty burned out the last 2 months. I'm tired of thinking, planning, and ordering followed up with thinking, planning, and ordering and on and on.

    I'm down to the final couple orders. I know exactly what to get now. Have I mentioned that I'm getting burned out on all this stuff?

    The only thing is, is the small cap size. I have been using the condiment bottles from Wal Mart, and they can be a little leaky around the threads. So I'll see if I like these any better.

    Small cap size would be an issue without using a funnel but no biggie. My wife bought the squeeze bottles. She got them at Michaels in the candy making section. They're nice and soft for good control. I think they're designed for decorative liquid sugar. They were just 2 bucks a piece. The

    Maybe if I can't work with these, I'll check out Michaels. For the PG/VG the one's I have aren't bad, but I'd like something better for the Nic. Or maybe just find a good SS funnel.

    I have 4 orders outstanding right now. Well, 5 if you count the "leather" vapesoon case that FT didn't have when they packaged my order. It's been almost a month and they can't seem to get another red one in stock. :nah: One of the orders is a little $13 one from My Vapor Store. It shipped 3 days ago with an estimated Delivery date of Friday. Tracking still shows it leaving Flushing, New York 2 days ago. I guess those Northern packages can't find their way to the middle of nowhere, Georgia. :lol: The rest are FT packages that have shipped, but I don't expect them for another week or so.
