Dibs on a Divo if you manage to find any more.
Do you still have any Reactors?

Yikes, suddenly I have so many choices...
I was waiting for these 2 things to try out my Catfish Chowder Cyclone...it's squonking/draining/working great.
I DO have a question - the pin length is different between my two cyclones.
First use, it made a connection and I was vaping it - then noticed it was a bit off the deck...
I since screwed it down, it went flush. Then I switched to the other one, and it still connects.
What's the deal? Is there just a slight "range" or does the REO pin travel a little, or what?
I'm just getting used to the REO and don't want to permanently depress the pin or something by screwing "too far" with the longer one.
ANYWAY - now I'm equipped to totally maximize the variations of a Cyclone.
No time for EVERY setup, but already - DAMN, I have to keep the airflow on the AFC mostly closed or I don't have enough lung capacity to really hit it.
So here's my stuff - it's a Vicious Ant day for Train:
- Factory BF Cyclone w/Black AFC and black Chaplin tip
- Cat Chowder (lol) BF Cyclone w/Fusion tip

^ OOOH same here! My cyclone doesn't sit flush either and has the same gap! I'm not sure if I should still try to force screw it down...

Hey Train and Kiwi, do ya'll have the little orings to fit in your catchcup for positioning your atty?
Nope! I got my brand new REO on Sunday, and it didn't come with any oring.
Also, wouldn't the oring make it sit even high?

Yep, I've got the ORing in there - it's JUST a scootch higher than the 510 well - it provides a little flex to get the airhole positioned, but doesn't cover that gap.
But I screwed the thing down a bit further, and it seems fine. I don't THINK I've caused a problem, since it still connected with the other one. I'd check if it changed how far the other one threads in - but then I'd have to stop vaping for a minute to change tops.

well, it's pretty thin, but allows you to position your airholes where you want, I'll have to put my cyclone on one of my reos to see how much of a gap I have, I don't think mine has a gap
Nah - you use a tiny little oRing - fits right around the 510 connection and just gives the atty a LITTLE bit of silicone to press against, so you can tighten or loosen like 1/4 of a turn, and get the airhole where you want it...
Divos are in, I just got home. I will be drilling tomorrow.

The Black Magma's supposedly arrived today according to tracking info but must have been mis-delivered (ARGHHH). Mister postman and I will be going to the wood shed tomorrow.

^if it makes you feel better, my mail man likes to scan the delivery code when he first loads the stuff into the van. 80% of the time it only gets to me the day after it says it's been delivered

The second batch is up for Dibs... Continue the list starting with "back-up and alternate 1-6.
My bet would be 1mm I can expand it but I wouldn't go crazy as to preserve the flavor. Dual #53 (just under 1/16) is about as big as I would suggest but you're the boss.
I can do #57, #53, 1/16th single or dual.

List will be up tomorrow for Black Magma clones depending on what the mailman comes up with. Total of 5 available baring defects, if there are defects I will fix the defects and sell the afflicted attys as blems for a discount. I don't need anymore black Magma's for testing purposes.
Has anyone Considered the Vulcan Authentic? I tried on as a dripper this past week on Vacation and was impressed with the quality. I would have to replace the center screw with SS but I'm interested. Anyone else? I could do a run of five. Anyone up for one?
