I have been vaping for about 6 months now. I build my own coils and juices. I have now started making my own extracts as well. Now I am about to build my first mechanical mod. I plan to make it out of copper and want it to be full mech -without any wires or circuitry. Where I need help is building an adjustable 510 connector and a side push button. I have mods with bottom buttons but want a side button this time. Can anyone post pictures of their buttons and connectors or provide any advice?

Here are a few cad images of a design that is - simple, highly flexible in both final configuration and adaptability to individual manufacturing capabilities, and... by use of relatively large, tapered contact surfaces - would provide excellent continuity and wear self-adjustment.

Thanks. I love this image and would love to build it this way. I have tried to find a rivet like shown in the sketch at hardware stores but cannot find it. Can't find large diameter brass rods as well. All I can find are very small diameter. Any idea where to find these?

Plumbing department? Copper pipe, just check that the inner diameter will fit a battery. Not brass, but copper, being un-alloyed, is a better conductor anyway.
Thanks, DavidOck. I Grande found the 3/4inch copper tubing in the plumbing dept fits an 18650 perfectly. It's the rivets and larger diameter brass rods for the contact points that is driving me crazy trying to find...
