E-Liquid bottle dimensions

[crooked]

I haven't ordered any 30 mL bottles YET, but I know I will soon. I've been pretty much tasting the sample packs so far. I want to build a vape station, so I need the diameter of the 30 ML halo bottles to I can drill the right size holes.

Thanks,
Crooked

height with topper = 4"

width of bottle (diameter) = 1 1/4"

circumference = 4 3/16"

make sure to post back pictures here when you are done with the build

Thanks wheesal. Ill definitely post pics when its done. I got started on it this afternoon. Its going to be 3 tiers of oak, alder and hickory with room for 5-30 ml bottles, I think 15 - 7ml bottles, 4 Halo g6 batteries, and 25 cartos/mini tanks. The tiers are gluing up under vacuum right now.

Suggestion for Halo: PLEASE make the shoulders on your 7ml bottles slightly angled towards the tip rather than flat so I don't lose the tip of my finger trying to cut the bottles open in order to get the last few precious drops out of them!!!!

hehehe, come-on Halo help-um^^^out

Too cool crooked! Can't wait to see the finished product

As promised, Here's some pix of the in-process and finished product.

from the top down, I used Hickory, Alder, Red Oak, and Poplar.
Spaces for juice on the top and bottom hold the 7ml bottles, a total of 16 of them. The smaller holes on the top and bottom are drilled out to 2 separate diameters, a shallow hole that will fit a carto with condom. Then they step deeper so that a mini tank will fit without flopping around.
The spaces on the middle tier hold up to 5 30ml bottles, and 2 tanks for each bottle. That's going to be for the stuff that both of us use.
Finally, there's space for 4 G6 batteries on the left.

Once I had all the holes drilled out, I coated it in Tung Oil, I think about 10 applications, and polished it with 0000 steel wool to even it out.

Now on to the pix.

Sandwiching the layers together. Yes, I used my FoodSaver to ensure the wood was all glued tightly. I used a couple of brad nails to hold the pieces together so that the vacuum pressure didn't cause any shifting

Test fitting everything in the cubby this stand is going to fit in. You can't *really* tell the difference between the wood types. Hopefully it looks better once varnished!

MANY coats of Tung Oil give it a nice sheen and some much needed protection. Don't want my juice ruining the wood if it leaks.

All loaded up (with what we have today), before finally setting in its cubby.

Nicely nestled in place

Very nice!!

 

[sando7]

very nice indeed, but wait there's more!.....when the wonder-full affliction of shiny-itus strikes you hehe and it will, you will have to visit your local lumber yard for supplies

 

[crooked]

as a drummer, I have a different term for "shiny-itis".. it's called GAS - Gear Acquisition Syndrome. I get that all the time, so I'm going to try to keep those symptoms in one place!

crooked that is beautiful

careful... or you might find you can start making money making people custom to order stands for their vape gear

 

[crooked]

Thanks fallen! My buddy already asked me to make one for him (for cash of course). Who knows it could take off... how much would someone pay for a piece like this?

 

[FallenRawToast]

no idea how much some one would pay for such, but i know that ppl pay a lot more for a lot less on some of the sites.

 

[wheezal]

i know The Vape Station goes for like $60 or $70.

So you could really be onto something there, especially if you offer some customization for people.

Looks awesome!

Crooked!!! very nice, it's beautiful!!! I can't believe I'm just now seeing this.




I've spent to much time in the chat thread.

Squeeeeeeee............I'm still coveting your little trinket box!!!!!


I'm in the juice acquisitions phase of my journey, although I've developed a case of shinyitis or GAS as Crooked said

It feels so good to finish a project like that and start using it. Looks great!
