Although @Pigs has one I believe that has been working fine for years. Where has he been lately anyway?

I'm certainly hoping that @Pigs is simply enjoying the Summer that we won't see again for a while, and that he's perfectly fine. :)
Hi guys. I haven't been getting any alerts from this thread and with no new gear to show off have been absent.
I'm fine thanks and hope you all are too. @DPLongo22 the weather has been superb in the last few days but otherwise a bit hot for my liking.
Bluebird skies and warm with a nice cooling sea breeze predicted for today. Merry Christmas to all!

Nice to see you, @Pigs, and I wouldn't have minded "a bit hot" over the past few days. With wind, we were hovering right around 0F (-17C). Twas a bit nipply! :lol:

Oh you never got a SXK Moonraker? Oh I'm sorry. But I did and I forgot that one had a SEVO 70W too. So there you go DPLongo22. Another SEVO 70W that works perfectly fine.

THANKS, Bill!

We're going back and forth right now. The color we want isn't available in the dna, but I think we'll likely end up prioritizing chip over bling for this one. I suspect we'll know within 24 hours, either way.

It sure as heck beats Marlboro!!! :rickroll:

Family, how is all my boro life lovers & brothers doing? Hope all of you had a great Xmas with love one's and friends. I fell back a little after destroying a couple of fairly new mods that I had purchased. I'm rethinking about the way I vape and the durability of the materials used to create some of these devices...

I worry about durability too. BB's aren't cheap, I keep mine on my desk or occasionally the kitchen table, never take them out of the house. Same with Provaris. Solos and Picos are good for trips. I really have no idea how well a BB would hold up to being dropped and I don't want to find out the hard way.

The Rev1-3s will take an absolute beating and keep firing. The 4s, not so much.

One of my kids put this one through a ringer, but it never stopped firing.

I don't worry much about the BB's, aslong as you don't flood them they perform and last along time. I do hate the fact that the position of it's magnets isn't the best, causing the panels to chip in the corners all the time. I use the one bb I have left without the panels like the Astro mod.
I was referring to stabwood, resin and 3d printed devices.
Also devices with pcb's other then DNA's. My grave yard keeps growing and I have a ton of parts to play with and look at. Mostly pcb's, gold plated screws and contacts from other mod's that have met their demise.

I've dropped my rev 4 Piebald twice withe the G10 panels on. No visible damage but wouldn't want to make a habit of it! I love the incredibly smooth solid feel of the BBV G10 doors. They don't look great on all colours but they suit the Piebald pretty well.

See - not a scratch on them. Somehow I escaped the black hole's gravity and haven't done any tweaking at all after quite a few years. Not even a single custom door. Just put on regular drip tips and replaced one screen which died. And I've only tried 3 inserts, one of which I destroyed in a moment of clumsiness. I understand the temptation though, there's so much you can do to these mods.

Gee. that looks like the two that I have. But I had to replace the screws with some colored ones because I stripped the heads on a couple of them and the regular screws weren't avalible on the site that I bought them from.
