    Quick question David is the cat ledge in the window hand made and is it free standing or screwed or nailed in place? If it's store bought could you post a link please.

    I bought a package of 3 of these spool tamers and I couldn’t figure out how to use them lol! The wire couldn’t be pulled out as much as I tried. I mean honest to god it’s not rocket science and yet I still can’t use them lol!!
    Adjust how tight it is to be a bit looser. there is a video on that page showing how it works. You have to hold it the right way.

    Is anyone else getting strange very large pictures suddenly appearing and then disappearing on your screen? 2 of them showed up on the last page, and the 3rd showed up on this one. There has been a pic of a guy and woman driving in the country in a convertible. Another has been an aerial view of landscape with rolling small hills. The 3rd just popped on and then off again...and it was an underwater scene with a shark in it...as best I could tell. It flashed on and off so fast, and I HATE sharks, so I blinked as I scrolled past it as quickly as I could.

    ETA: It's only been happening on this thread, none of the others I've been on for the last hour or so.

    ETA again: Aw crap! I just went to the Bargain Bin Treasures thread...and the people in the convertible pic just popped off and on, on there, too! It was between the 2 posts by vaper1960 on p. 24!
    I have gotten the landscape pic at least 6-7 times, but none of the others you mentioned.

    I don’t put the wire through the hole, just let it out the side of the band. It might work (the hole I mean) with high gauge round wire, but not with my clapton.

    FYI, FastTech order (placed on 1/26/2020) just moved from "Waiting for Packaging" to "Packaging". A second order (placed on 1/24/2020) still shows "Order Received".

    Wishing the best to those impacted by the novel coronavirus.

    FYI. Status of FT order, placed 1/26/2020, now has changed to "shipped". The second order, placed 1/24/2020, still shows "Order Received".

    Home made :) Just a piece of plywood cut to fit, screwed to the sill and with a single 2x2 (it's what I had lying around) brace in the middle, cut 45o on each end. Scrap fake fur over other padding, stapled on. Brace painted the same as the window trim.

    First iteration I did use two braces, but after the bathroom rehab, I decided the cats weren't that heavy, and one suffices. The plywood butts against the window sash, two screws down into the sill.

    Easy, cheap, and they love it :)


    Meanwhile...

    Ive never heard or have seen these strange looking devices. Thanks for the link!!

    If I had to buy these over again, I would look for ones that have completely round balls at the end (to grab the spool).

    But the ones I have work fine regardless.

    no matter what the feds do, the states are getting aggressive.

    I totally agree with this, from what I've been seeing. I fear states more than the feds/FDA.

    Even if nothing really changes much from a federal/FDA standpoint come May, there's still a lot to worry about (and prepare for) at the state level.

    Vaprzon 15% off at $65. Wineverything

    At that point you should also see free shipping (over $50)

    I generally wait for 20% or higher off, but 15 isn't bad.
    Don't order just yet!! @Haktuspit posted a 35% off coupon yesterday. 35MG442AYOMYI9-off

    I "think" it's good until the 14th, I was going to pick up some of those .4ohm GT's for $5.99/pack making them $3.89/pack. Just waiting till Thurs/Fri to order so that it won't show up on a Saturday when the wife is home.

    Well, with the delivery JUST NOW of 24 NRG GT cCELL 0.5 ohm coils (8x3pk), ordered 30-days ago from Vaporl, I have zero outstanding orders!
    Time to take and analyze inventory, determine whether more hardware is needed, then move on to liquids, accessories, and batteries for my March project. Other than that, any spending will be more want than need, and I ain't rich enough for the shinyitis bug. Although it would be hard to resist more $80-100 regulated mods at $10-15, or coils for my on-hand tanks at 10¢ each.
    When I'm satisfied with my stack, I may have to back off from ECF. This place can be expensive, even at $10 a pop! But, y'all have been really helpful in building the stockpile without too much financial damage. I coasted for a few years before, ready to do that again (for more than a couple), without thinking daily about purchasing 'stuff'.

    I tried that code just out of curiosity and it didn't work.
