Oh. I know her thread is closed but I have emsmom's email and her lathe guy too.
Before I washed mine, they worked perfectly. Didn't have any trouble. It sounds like it is flawed. A flanged carto won't work. Are you using std boge 510s.?

I'm really sorry you are having issues with this. It will get resolved.!
I wonder if the heat during mailing affected it? It's been so hot everywhere...

I wonder if putting it in your freezer would help? I've done that before when I've had cartos get stuck in tanks.
Grrr. I hate it when I can't make things work.
I picked up a Bella tank from Hoosier vape, so I'd have a tank I didn't have to worry about breaking when I'm out. Spent the last 20 minutes trying to force a carto into it. I just can't do it. I'm frustrated. Maybe I'll just sell it and get another Phiniac. I should not have to beat a tank to insert the carto!
Wow, I can't believe there are problems with it.Sorry Katann.
I know on her last batch here some had problems with o-rings, so maybe this is the o-ring slot not being deep enough for the o-rings, maybe try some thinner ones? My bella is the easiest tank I've ever had, cartos, even out of round ones, go in just fine.
caught up! hey everyone...have an awesome Friday. I'll post pictures by Sunday of this studio project in Arizona. It's going to the a top notch studio for education and art. Raychel Stein is one of the best bead makers there is and so are her peers! I'm honored to have made them all such a great place to gather and melt. I will also be here for an extended residency this coming winter.
ok....gonna go do some of what I do best now...i have to confess, I don't type that fast...hee,hee

Ok so I know what I'm gonna make today. After that fail on the glass tray yesterday, I think I'm gonna make myself a new tip holder, except this time I will make a wall decoration one. I was thinking an oval with a giant koi/crane etching, maybe some kanji tossed in, I think I still have "the boss" saved on here, thena small shelf protruding from the bottom with the holes..
HOW have I never had this before??? So good, my mouth is on fire.. Its a Mexican hotdog

We love trying to capture lightning when thunderstorms roll in, we got lucky last night... we caught one and then played it at slow speed! It was quite a light show I tell you, but in real time, it was less than seconds! We are about to get a realllly nice summer T. Storm...I just love watching these things roll in from the mountains.
