Dearest Gummy,
I have only been vaping for a short while, 6 weeks or so, I started on a disposable e-cig, upgraded to a Blu Style e-cig, wanted a bit more vavavoom, found YouTube's: RockingRobbin and TheVanBastensUK, upon first glance of Make your own SS wicks, I was smitten!
Gummy, I contracted ModUMust Fever before I even received my first 650mah and CE4 clearo!! Although perhaps to quote TomCatt, I may have a slight case of Mod Parts Acquisition Syndrome (MPAS) too, perhaps a large dollop of ModWannabe, I don't know??
I'm not sure what it is, but I like it, nothing has gripped my interest as this has in a long while (short of shoes that is).
I have already made my first SS wick, works well-ish - no shorts, just flooding and dry hits, a little overheating, but will be attempting cotton soon. Am now also a proud owner of a Pearl Pink Ego Twist (was on offer) - complements my nail polish.
My Husband as given me the "This is becoming Obsessive Lecture", although his eyes did light up when I questioned him about lathes, said he wanted one when he was a boy, to make his own steam engines. And when I mentioned soldering, I may as well have been narrating 50 shades of grey to him. After 18 years of marriage perhaps this is perceived as a good thing, admittedly it is, but not helpful behaviour.
I require focus and attention to the affliction I seem to be developing.
Why just yesterday, whilst we were performing our morning ablutions my husband took out his nose/ ear trimmer, well, I never, surely with a bit of imagination one could turn it into a multi purpose device, attach a 501 connector - vape, attach an oral B connector - brush, attach a - oh never mind.
Whole new meaning to the term Wonder Wand.
I have spent the best part of 4 days, reading "Wick materials. Safe vs dangerous." My friends are concerned about my change in orientation and anxious that I may start introducing Rosa Klebb types to our weekly afternoon tea party, worse yet, people who eat their own weeds (the garden pest variety). My preoccupation with Blahnik and Louboutin has been set aside for the release of the mini ViVi Nova and a device that looks like a Pipe Bomb??? Of course, a smaller shinier model, may raise the odd eyebrow with keen interest....
Do you see how detrimental this affliction is? As men you can hide in your Den's/ Sheds, Caves, your preoccupations with mechanical/ electrical devices are far better accepted by your wives/ girlfriends, rather that, than, messing about with girls in bars or online, BUT, what about us Gals?
Patiently awaiting your highly regarded advice.
Yours most sincerely,

Dear smitten kitten,
As we now know Modumust Fever is no respecter of gender, race, age or income. However we also know that left untreated it can reek havoc on one's family/social life. It is imperative that you gain the upper hand with this affliction. Controlling the flair ups can be tough. At first on set this is a most demanding condition. Rest assured that as you learn how to deal with those "Urges" to mod everything you see you will regain all those lost friends that abandoned you in your new obsession. (well a few of them anyway)
By now hopefully you know that you need to carry three 510 blank atty connectors at all times, and how to use them. You should also know that fighting the urge to mod is useless. What you do need to learn is how to use a lathe though. The web is full of info on this. Then there will be the electronics training. So if your family is willing to stand with you (you know, the for better or worse thingy) they will help you set up an area in the garage (or kitchen table) where you can treat your affliction. Also of course They must understand if they go looking for their electric tooth brush and discover that it now has a 18650 battery that they need to just go buy themselves a new one. While at the same time you CAN NOT use this affliction as a license to steal. If you mod their nose hair trimmer it would be best if you keep it functional (like asnider did with the TV remote), you can always wipe off the stray hairs before you screw your atty onto it.
Good luck, the first few months are the worst. But you must come here for regular check ups. For now I think weekly check ups are in order untill you gain control of this condition. Then we can stretch them out to monthly. I even have a few patients on every 3 month visits. and of course the clinic also has an emergency room (usually staffed) if needed.

Easy there TC, you should at least wait to see if her husband abandons her 1st.
Then you can zoom in before the other modders do.
Oh MY! I'm in love!
j/k
If I get caught with this sort of talk I'll be
I'm no Hoochi Dancer
Love your new Look tho!
Dearest Gummy,
Thank you for all your advice. Thus far, I have not had the "Urge" to Steal yet.. I have however 'borrowed' tools and equipment, and have alas received the "Why Can't You Put Things Back Where You Found Them
!!!" speech.
With regards to finding an area to alleviate my condition, I find indulging my tendancies, where and when they occur, the: Lounge, Dining Room, Study, the Patio, never the bedroom, Bedrooms are sacred!
works rather well, except for the above re-occuring speech.
Although, only last night whilst I was thinking about both my new and old love (modding / shoes), do you think that man on a plane with a smoking boot, was perhaps an overzealous shoe modder? Just idle thoughts.
I do not currently have 3 510 connectors, but I find returning to the post and staring at the Picture helps, at present. This is only a temporary fix, until I have my own in due course.
Thank you again Gummy,
Yours ever fondly,

Welcome Hoochi Dancer, you certainly have the proper mindset to be a modder. Don't mind Tom, he's in the middle of figuring how to wire up his entire desk at work as one big APV, but he needs a 220v 30amp A/C circuit to power it...
What no way....how many vape hookups ya gonna have Tomcat...maybe...definitely wont be portable unless ya get one of those truck mega vape setups Gummy was playing w a year ago...and I thing the neighbors complained about all the fog...although they did remark it was pleasant smelling fog...lol
