Easy-Off and Secure Cap for Refilling!

[FAUXPUFF]

I wanted to buy a t-tip from super-t, but that's over $20 with shipping...
I wanted to buy a drip-tip from inhaler, but it's almost as long as a carto...

Here's my solution: (I call it the carto-carto tip)

I took a burned carto and cut a 4mm section from it.
Then I took a regular old-style carto cap and inserted it in the top.
Inside, I put an O-ring from a carto trimmed down to 2mm.
Then, I trimmed the "lip" off of a Greencig (Greentech) cap.
I coated the inner diameter of the steel ring and the O-ring surface with CA glue.
I inserted the Greencig cap open-end down into the assembly.

There you have it!

It is easy to remove for refilling, and won't go shooting across the room like the regular carto caps do...

Also, it is very secure, won't come off in your pocket...

And it's "free", made from parts you probably have laying around.

Enjoy! (Just make sure you let the CA glue cure for a couple hours)

To make it even more secure, and to make it fit on non-premium cartos,

I cut a groove around the protruding part of the cap,
and put an O-ring from a greencig carto in the groove.

Even Better!

Very clever!

Great "tip". No pun intended.

Is the glue safe though? I realize you allow it to cure, but what happens at high temps. is it still safe?
This is a very interesting version. Now if you could only mass produce them...
Maybe we could order a bag of them?

greencig being reduced to spare parts is better than it collecting dust I suppose.

Great idea. I have to try that.
