The amounts that I got from Wizard Labs was, for me, the smallest I could get to get started:
60 ml - 60mg nic in 100% PG (the smallest amount that they carry: 60, 120, 250, 500 are your choices)
250 ml - PG
120 ml - VG
= 430 ml of base
+ 84 ml of flavoring
= 4 months of juice for around $51 shipped.

When the nic, PG and VG are all mixed together, I would end up with 430 ml of base with 7.1 mg nic in 76.4PG/23.6VG, assuming 15.4% flavoring in 100% PG (haha, I used eJuiceMeUp and played with the variables until I came up with the right mls of all the stuff that I ordered). When I order premixed, it's usually 6mg in 80/20. I'm thankfully not picky and have a wide range of tolerance, so if it ends up slightly off, it's all good. :p

I played with the other nic strengths too, but I would've ended up with extra stuff, or too much base. This was just right for now, since my funds were severely limited. If I had gone for lower nic, then I'd still have to order VG & PG, because my nic is so low.

I must say, Cindy, I don't think I've ever seen anyone as prepared as you to start DIY. Good luck to you and happy vaping.

Same as last nite, I'm afraid...time AND menu. :blush:
Come on by, I'll defrost some for you! :laugh:

That's what I do. I cook a big pot of something and freeze it in individual servings, so that I can just reheat the rest of the week. I keep hoping that I'll have enough saved in the freezer for a little variety, but sadly it hasn't happened yet. I never get around to cooking again until I get to the last one! I'm baaaad, huh? :lol:

So how are you doing? Healing nicely?

New Hope is a bit up the road from me, but if you get down toward Trenton let me know and I'll buy you a cup of coffe, not as good as Lilac's though unfortunately. Enjoy you time in NH and NYC and when you pass through NJ on the way to NYC, remember this is the "Great Nanny errr ahhh Garden State". (Hope I got enough acronyms and initials in there)

COOL :cool: Where you be in Trenton ? :confused: OH I haven't forgotten ;)

Spoken like a seasoned mixologist! Ain't it great?

Hi Bluesman and welcome to voltville, Awe Rave you are an Angel. Hope you mend quickly Bluesman.
I have been busy working extra long hours this week and haven'nt been around, mostly everyone is off sick and my routine is mostly sleep work eat and sleep to keep up my energy and not drain myself.
Thanks Uncle for the reminder of photobucket, and have a safe trip.
I made an Album of tommie for you all to look at if you wish. Its pass word protected, the password being vaping http://s1216.photobucket.com/albums/dd371/reptilr/Tommie/
Awe Raynes it was awesome to hear about your little lizard encounter. I love the green one ;) thanks for asking about the car, its become a really bad addiction , i cant stop looking at it and cleaning it after every days end. Well i gotta keep it looking .... and span.
Cindy.... I used to pre cut, blanch and freeze all my vege's , and also make a weeks worth of sandwhich lunches and freeze them, cos i was too lazy to make them in the mornings. Then it was just take one out of the freezer and off to work

Thank you for asking, Cindy. I'm doing very well. I have excellent care.

I'll need about a 6 hour notice for a dinner invitation. Flying east to west... just isn't as fast as it used to be. :laugh:
