Re: Soft feel drip tips....
Got to thinking (no cracks about smelling wood burning...) and from my modding days...
"Gentlevapers, we can build one. We have the technology. We have the capability to make the world's first bionic comfortable soft drip tip."
Trials underway....progress will be reported as it becomes available......
and another one! Saw your update, lookin forward to more experiments with this!

No I saw it, but I also won't get my hopes up. This morning is not a good morning, as had to have my husband taken by ambulance to the hospital at 4am, I couldn't go with because of the dog and I haven't heard anything yet, so bare with me if I am not in the best of moods today.
Dang......was really hoping that after reading through 6 pages, I'd see a "everything is fine and he's home now" post. Really hoping you can get up there, and get some good info on him, and that it's not serious!
already been ordered late last week... Ha Ha!
Ok.....now that's just creepy readin our minds!! hehehe

I haven't been posting a lot as entries. That's because I have won quite a lot in the last 60 days. It's also because I've been at a show peddling my wares and have had precious little time...
Wow......great set up! I used to love going to craft shows. (as a vendor) when I'm a customer I'm one of the ones the vendors hate. Broke, and thinking to myself.......what a great idea.....I could make that! lol Of course, I never do, usually forget all the great ideas.
I was talking to a somewhat big juice mfg'r / supplier the other day ago that said he liked the Cap V1 custard better than the V2 because in his opinion it had a more eggy taste to it than the V2, said he wasnt a fan of the V2...?
I am not so fond of vanilla custards, but love some eggy ones. I haven't looked into flavorings much, is the Cap V1 one of the ones without all the bad stuff in it? Diaca ever how ya spell it? lol I know I need some Capella apple pie and green apple.
It's called oldtimers and if you are a younger type person, I feel sorry for ya, because it gets worse as you age.
You and I are in the same boat darlin.....but I do need to educate you just a tad on what it is we have. Yes, some call it old timers.... a few call it CRS........it's really CRAFT Can't Remember A (y'all know what the F stands for) Thing!!!
Sitting in the truck while my husband tries to shovel us out of the snowbank. Luckily my phone is still picking up my wifi connection.
Glad y'all got outta da snowbank!! That was a lousy way to start a day!
Yes, they are very stable, my husband bumps the table through out the day and not once has he manged to knock over a tank I have on a pop bottle, but I watch on the hole size closely so they basically screw into them.
Kewl!! Do you use a drill bit (size?) or something like an ice pick to just gouge out a hole? I have an ice pick. (checking medical insurance) jup got that too and 911 on speed dial
2/22 entry 2
I'd like to get one of these new coil building things and this coil master looks good. Good to know you are liking it. I use very thin 32g wire (because I got a ton of it before I knew that thicker was better) so I hope that these can do a good job with it. When I make my coils for protanks, I try to make a bunch at a time because I know I'll be happy I did later! This would make it easier to do a bulk amount for future use so I'll likely get one.
Anyone use the thin wire on these successfully?
I see carriesal kinda beat me to it, but was also gonna suggest the Artistic coil gizmo. I've not used the twisty jigs, but most say a very very light touch and thin wire is more difficult to use. I really want to try Super X's tensioned coils. Makes total sense about making a better coil to begin with than trying to fix one later with heating and squeezing. this is why I will be getting the artistic jig. The swamp video with the fishin reel was Russ bein a goofball. He's good at that but a super super nice guy, and does some really great vids. He does get very long winded though.
It has been suggested to me to try the rayon being as I can't do the cotton, where can I find it in much smaller amounts?
Well was gonna say if I had some I'd toss some in an envelope for ya, but Bruce beat me to it (and actually has some)!! lol What a sweet thing!!
I think most companies say 6 months but in a dark place or frozen it could probably be doubled. I was told by some juice mfg'rs that nicotine will stay good almost forever if frozen
Kurt Kistler the resident chemist agrees with you about storing the nic pretty much forever when frozen. The flavors not so much. Most store bought juice I've gotten that had expirations are about a year, but most folks I've seen say 2 years. I would be good with a year, not so sure about 2 years. Rip tripper does have a video about a bottle of juice that definitely turned, not just dark, lots of em do that, but this turned into a water like consistency.

I have three PT3 boxes. Since they are all the same size, and the inside slides out, I glued one on top of the other, and glued jewelry findings on the front like drawer knobs. I turned the plastic packaging window part upside down and put one in the bottom of each drawer to make them easier to clean, then covered the outside with scrapbook paper.
It makes a really cute little set of drawers.
that sounds cute! Any chance of a pic????
2/22, #1:
I accidentally poured Orange Cream juice into my tank containing tobacco. I didn't even bother to try it; I simply poured it down the toilet, cleaned the tank, and dry burned the coils.
you shoulda tried it.....mighta been amazing!!
Yeah, I never thought to mention it when we were discussing rebuilding kits. As I was mentioning what I had in mine, I realized that I never use my round nosed pliers, and seldom use wire cutters. I just open that little case and use what is in there most of the time, because it's easy!
When I am at home, I do use larger spools of wire and use either the rayon Joan sent me, or cotton pads for wicking rather than the emergency little spools of wire and cotton balls that are in the kit, but I basically just grab the stuff in the kit to make the coils.
Anyway, it's an idea for anyone else who wants to make up a portable rebuilding kit, and has one of those ego cases!
Now I know what I'll be repurposing my ego case for once I get some plastic battery cases! Been needing a few of those forever, but every place I see them at a decent price has nothing else I need, and shipping on just those makes it not so good a price anymore.
