Why can't one vendor stock all the DIY supplies that you may need. I find I have to go site hopping and pick up one thing from here, another from there and so on and so forth to get all my supplies. The shipping is the killer. Shipping fees from multiple sites.
Same goes for PV accessories.
Am I alone here. Am I the only one with this problem. I know there will be responses from vendors who will claim they do stock all that you need.

I didn't have any problems with my supplies being expensive but I didn't need much! A few 6ml bottles to make my "carry around" juices in and one 60 ml to make my 15 mg diluted juice in. I ordered pipettes but they didn't work at all with straight VG so I use a regular tablespoon for measuring. It's 15 ml per Tbs and works perfect when using a 60 ml bottle for my stock. 3tbs of VG to 1 Tbs of 60 mg = 15 mg's:)

I got my 6ml + 60 ml empty bottles at myfreedomsmokes.com and they had a good selection of empty bottles. That's who I order my 60 mg Nic juice from so it wasn't high shipping. I get my VG from Vapor Renu and that's where I order my flavorings from so that shipping was $5 and not bad. At MFS, I used a discount code and I think my shipping ended up being free after I applied the code because it knocked the price down.

For my accessories like 510 batteries and attys, I will use BlueGrassVapor.com for forever and a day LOL! Free shipping and low prices on their 510 stuff.

I have never seen VG mixed in a Tablespoon proportion. GREAT IDEA!!!!!!!! I have been on ECF for awhile now and this is probably one of the best tips I have ever heard. Thank you so much!

Thank you Sandy:) I used it out of desperation because I'm not good at math and the pipettes worked terrible with straight VG. I couldn't measure a darn thing with them.

I retired that tablespoon after using it. I won't use it anymore for anything other than Nic juice. I saw the 15 ml imprinted on the Tbs and thought" Oh what the hell, I'll use this. The pipettes aren't working at all and four of these TBS will equal 60 ml".

When I get to the point of reducing Nicotine, I think I'll get a new 125 ml empty bottle and go to 4Tbs VG + 1 Tbs 60mg Njuice and then I'll be at 12 mg. Then I'll reduce to 10 mg by doing 5 tbs VG to 1 tbs 60 mg Njuice in my next batch.

You just proved my point. It would be nice to find what you want on one site.

That's why I buy Graduated Cylinders for VG. I buy from One Stop DIY Shop and use small quantities. So the 10ml Grad Cyl is perfect.

BT...Just now getting ready to start purchasing DIY supplies.. I've noticed that no one sight has everything that I want either. I purchased a small 30ml graduated cylinder from Wal-Mart a few months ago to add doubler and 48mg juice...I'm gonna check and see what else they may have...need a larger cylinder....I paint and repair wrecked cars for a living...I do some hot rodding on motorcycles and cars/trucks also...I spend a large amount of time looking around for that certain part to get the job done.. Usually when I'm done I'll have something that looks right and will last... Now I'll be hopping around the net getting my DIY station straight.... BT if you won't compromise Brother then you'll be shopping around...Don't ever compromise...

Is there a store that carries everything you want or need? I doubt any business can be all things to all people.
