Ahoy Captn'
I was one of the scallywags who ordered late Friday. You can blame/thank Filthy-Beast for bringing it to my attention. He posted a pic of his caddie on the REO forum so you might of had a few orders from there.
They look gorgeous and I can't wait to get mine!! I will post a pic on the REO site as well.
Thanx Captn' !!!

Ahoy! Are you all having a happy Monday? Har har har...
No worries freedogg. The bummer is that I managed to get them all done and boxed and stinkin' paypal shipping is broke and won't print out the labels, arrrr!! No patches, upgrades or any software changes that I can see but as usual, it just broke. David tried to find the problem but gave up this time. I will try again tomorrow ...pos....

Anyhow, I went wood shopping today. Dropped a couple hundred on my monthly cherry wood supply for desk caddies, ouch. Wood prices are up, router bit prices are up, guess it's finally time to raise prices up a bit. I have a bad habit of having static prices for too long, years at a time sometimes. I should keep up with inflation more I guess.
Anyhow, have a great week me 'earties, arrr

Cap't ? Can you make a caddy that has one tube space and one box space? So for my RSM and my Sophia ? Not now though!! 
I know you are concentrating on the mods. I was just curious if you could do that. If so I will order one in a few weeks.

Greetings crew!
Hope everyone had a great weekend! My one day off was going quite well driving the El Camino 58 miles from my friends house to mine. Unfortunately, the alternator in it is shot and the battery died about 8 miles from home. A quick call to AAA and a tow truck got me the rest of the way. Only lost $15 out of pocket and a small amount of pride about a Ford towing my Chevy home

Hmm, I might have to design a new one for that, the closest I have is the medium combination caddy that has two mod & box holes in it. Maybe that would serve and you would have room to expand?
If not, let me know and I will design a new one.
Ok, been a long day, I quit!
I managed to get 3 mods built, only 11 more to go! uggg
I found a mistake I made with the new 26650 mods. I failed to give myself room to attach the nut onto the threads of the push button. Good thing I know someone who is a wood worker! A bit of work with my smallest wood chisel and it should be good to go, but gotta remember to make the correction to the cnc program for next time.
Yeah, I'm outta here, catch you all tomorrow. Have a great Tuesday, arrrrr!

Yep I have that one already ha ha. We can talk in a few weeks. Hell, I may change my mind by then anyway.
At least you were able to recover and save all the work you'd already put into them.
You bet. I even have one of the Cutlass 26650's done now. I actually kept working and just started playing netflix on the computer while I toiled at the workbench, heh.
G'night all, arrr
Night Cap't...............Sleep under clear skies arrrrr
Oh, and I bet I am speaking for all here that your dedication is VERY much appreciated.

Yaaay! debinnv asked my question, sorta, arrrr!
I was 'shiver me timbers' over the Medium Combo but debinnv caused me to reconsider and look at the large once again. Large will be my choice now. thanks debI like the looks of your D-L-C in Cherry but I'm concerned a bit about the depth of the Drip tip / Atomizer / Cartomizer holder holes.
I have like 2 extra drip tips, so... the eleven holes don't help me for those but I have 4 Protank II minis for my eGo Batts and wouldn't like them glass tanks tipping over and falling out 'cause the holes are shallow.
My guess is that you have templates and design alterations wouldn't be easy peasy.
Also, 'cause you asked, my iTaste VTR would have an easier time if the box mod dimension was 1.2 X 2.25 instead of 1.2 X 2.2 inches.

Hmmm so I caused you to get the larger one?? Cap't where's my commission bonus! LOL
Texas did you see the pic I posted of my VTR in the caddy? it fits just dandy and my protanks don't tip out of the holes.
Now what I did do though is cut down the little rubber "condoms" that come on the protank coils and those fit in the drip tip holes perfectly so that way when I set my tips or protanks or atty's in them if there is any bit of juice on them the wood is protected. A q-tip cleans that out nice and easy too.

Haven't ordered yet but I'm hoping to place one this week. Almost jumped in last Friday but it would have been the MEDIUM and now I see it would be to small.
You caught me!
I admit I didn't read ALL 29 pages... (don't see the on ramp for the plank) So missed your pic. I wouldn't have asked in that case.
Good idea on the rubber 'condoms' but I guess I'm not seeing the inverted 'condom' fitting the bottom of a PTII mini when it is set in the caddy.

Oh wait I don't have a mini just the larger one and I leave the coils in them so maybe that is why I am thinking it would be fine. Let me see if I can find that VTR pic .......................
there we go and yes I took my dremel to that blasted retaining ring on the VTR

Lol, sorry, no not mods. I've gotten 3 of them fully built and tested, a few more almost built with glue drying. Once they are all done being put together (probably around Friday?) I might need to give them another coat of finish. I don't like to do the final coat(s) of finish until assembly is done in case I scuff or scratch them while working on them.
I would guess they will ship at the beginning of next week
