Copper Creek Chit Chat continued....

[tlmoody27]

Everything shoveled out back. Not done snowing yet but soon I hope. Have to do the front next to get to the car. Decided better tonight at 16 degrees than tomorrow morning at 0 or - degrees.

I can't bring myself to like this at all.

I don't even shovel for Dixie..She has to follow the big dogs trail.LOL....Are the protanks easy to care for? If you clean the coils to use again do they vape nice?

I love the version 1 protank and now the unitank too. It takes the same head as a protank and came out between v2 and v3. I don't bother rebuilding coils. To me the price good enough that I just toss the old ones and reattach a new one. I can get 5 for $8 and they last quite a while.

I don't clean them most of the time I just screw a new one in. Co op for the coils are dirt cheap.

 

[Bamrz]

Ya, they don't clean well. Because of the little rubber cap thingy, you really can't dry burn them. I've rinsed them off on occasion to swap to a similar flavor, but that's about it.

And I'm with Drott on picking up coils in the co ops, much cheaper!

 

[DanG]

I never got in on one of those co-op coil buys. I like re-building them. Except when they don't turn out perfect. I rebuilt Mrs Gs this weekend. I regret not doing building her another for her new juice. She has been vaping some $1/ml stuff from the local vape store. She didn't like it but it was as close to truly as she could find.

 

[RickMc]

Sorry about the cold...I hear the flu is kicking .... around here.I got a shot.I hope it works...Fingers crossed.

I always get a flu shot. Except this year. The Mouse schedules clinics all over so all of us with our various work locations and schedules we have a chance to get one. I managed to miss them all this year. I hope I don't end up regretting it.

I just don't like the Protanks, but I haven't fiddled with them or learned them at all. I may have to take some teaching from you guys on them. I still dunno how you clean them if you can't see to dry-burn.

I definitely need to learn the PT's from you all. I wouldn't know how to rebuild one. I have never rebuilt a Nova head, but I know how at least. If I don't learn the Protanks and start liking them better, I will PIF them to a posse member or two. I have two tanks and probably a dozen or so new heads.

 

[FlyingV]

I haven't learned them yet either Rick.

Someone say rebuild I haven't purchased a coil in a year! If china can wrap a wire around some silica so can you!

Driving home 12" on the ground

 

[Bamrz]

Rick, you can search on YouTube for instructions on rebuilding the heads/coils. I'm sure there are a few good ones on there. Vapers seem to enjoy making instructional vids, thank goodness!

Yes this X10000. That is exactly why I started doing it. I figured if a 5 year old Chinese kid can do it so can I.
I believe they don't use kids for labor in that factory though. But my decision was made before I heard that. Dry burning never worked for me. There was always goop on the bottom I couldn't see or burn off. I may have not started but the vape store I was going to was charging $3.00 per coil

FT 50 pre made coils less than 3.00

Mention rebuilding and here comes the wick/wire master. Hiya Paul. Drive careful!!!!

Night Drott. One day closer to chicks.....

 

[FlyingV]

*yawn* going home, see you tomorrow.

 

[nogrin]

Night FV! I'm still wiped out from my trip on Monday. I could sleep all week.

 

[DanG]

Hi nogrin. I actually had a second to come read. It sounds like a heck of a drive. Yesterday was like driving blind for me with all the snow

 

[Drottwiler]

Good morning back to the Rat Race. 3 degrees. - something with wing chills. Really hoping I don't have to be out side. Time will tell depends who shows up or doesn't show up.

 

[tlmoody27]

Good morning. It's at 19* here. And of course the dogs took their sweet time going to the bathroom so my one hand that holds the leash is frozen. I don't envy you guys that get it worse than this.

Not working today, no appointments today, oh what will I do with myself.

 

[punkinduster]

Morning Posse! I should have done what Drott did last night, shoveled. Now I am trying to convince myself to go outside in frigid temps and clean off the driveway and sidewalks. Maybe I'll just convince Mrs Punkin that we could stay home until it melts by itself or pay the neighbor kids to do it! For some reason $5 doesn't go very far these days. They probably would want $5 per step!

 

[punkinduster]

I'm too cheap. Going to start putting on layers and brave the elements. I'll see ya all later, if I survive...

 

[efirdj]

Mornin' Posse.

PD, good luck. Dont forget to turn the fire up when you get back inside.

We didnt get any snow. A couple of inches fell closer to Raleigh, and 7 inches fell in the mountains. All we got from it was the cold air. It was 23 when I got up this morning, and its going to be a toasty 34 or so by this afternoon.

Yesterday, Douche Canoe added something else to my list of responsibilities. Im trying to figure out at what point my manager will grow some cajones and stand up and say something about it. He knows I bust my .... in the warehouse. He knows I dont have time to do all of this crap in an 8 hour period. And yet, all he does is just pass down the wishes of an id10t. It was enough to convince me to submit my application and resume to the City of Charlotte for that Radio Tech position that my dad told me about. At best, I'll turn them down for not offering enough pay, or they'll turn me down for any number of reasons. At best, I can get out of this hell hole. Im just so tired of working for this guy. Ive never given up on a job before, so this is a first. And it sucks because I enjoy my job. I like the physical aspect, I like the fact I have to use my brain, and I like the guys I work with. But when more and more mess keeps getting dropped on my plate, then ties your hand behind your back by cutting your hours, its just not worth trying to deal with it if I dont have to.
