ePipeMods Fully Custom Made Wood E-Pipes - Part 2

[Mindtroverted]

Had the chance to buy a Gandalf. Just before I entered my credit card info I remembered I spent the money I intended to spend on my pipe because Matt said there wouldn't be any this Friday. Oh well... But it seems I was lucky enough to get to the pipes before even one was sold. Good to know that when I finally find another beautiful pipe, I won't be too slow to get it. Congrats to the people who managed to get what they wanted, and for all the others, hurry up! I already saw at least 5 sold. At this rate they won't last long

There are some very cool looking pipes in this release. Now there are alot of Gandalf's with the finger rest like mine, and almost all of them are sold already. And Matt, it's no secret that the biggest gangster in America is Uncle Sam. He takes what he wants, taxes the rest, and he always gets his cut.

juice question for folks ...

I don't like what I read about PG starting to have some links to health issues. I figure I'm in this for the long-haul and I vape for health so why backpedal? Therefor I've been working with 100% VG (well, since it is synthetic these days for pharma quality ... just Glycerine, but VG is easier to type about). However for my pipe (just using a basic Clearomizer) it takes a pretty hard pull and I am noticing it collect a bit more in my lungs.

What about cutting the VG with about 10% distilled water? I use water to clear my Clearo between flavors anyway. I tried last night and it seemed fine, it let it pull just a bit easier.

My question:
1) Surely there's no issue with the water in lungs, as at this quantity (especially where I live since we have average humidity below 20% many days) it would just be more "humid".

2) I know that putting pure water through is going to cause the atomizer to burn out fast BUT I'm not talking about pure water. Just a small amount and I'm thinking if I'm not having to drag as hard on it then I'm probably cancelling out this issue.

So the remaining issue is flavor, and 10% hasn't been enough to make the flavors change enough for me to worry about.

Any other issues I should be aware of? I know tap water is bad due to impurities, but I'm figuring distilled would be no issue.

I've noticed if I go over 20% PG or over 10% water in my juices that my Clearo gets VERY drippy, but below those seem to be a good mix for it. I haven't played yet with more customizable equipment. Something with a variable flow should be able to compensate for this issue some as well, no?

PS. I know pharma grade PG shouldn't be as much of a problem as food grade, but I prefer to just avoid it if I can.

Pipe Sauce is nearly 100% VG, thinned with water. And it's fantastic, as evidenced by the 100mL bottle I got today. Go for it.

Done. Amphora Dublin- Birdseye Maple goes to Moscow Russia!

Thank you Matt!

Best regards

So, I got my Killer today (actually yesterday, but I had to go to the Post Office today to sign for it in person, because it was registered mail they would not leave it in the box)

All I can say is -- the hype is true. Put it in an AGR Tank and wow, OMFG, incredible vape!

(notice the new brass switch button?)
gonna hafta keep looking for the ideal tank though, there's odd gaps at both ends (especially with the Jazz tip but hey, had to try it anyway), and I'd much rather it be black or gunmetal...

so, until I find a tank "worthy" of The Sherlock, it will live on the LG TubeMod

I thought it was 95 VG / 5 PG ... my mistake. Thanks I've got some pure VGs that I got as gifts (and have some pipe sauce). I was thinking more about cutting those other ones. I've also got some primarily PGs and just dumped em.

oh yeah, the Jazz looks much better with the matching eGo trim ring!

Where did u get the gun metal trim ring?

 

[MistBusterMatt]

Just picked myself up the 'Brandy- Amboyna Elemental'....

Question:

How do you get the colors on the wood. Is it dyed?

That pipe is a stabilized burl with acrylic. It's not dyed or painted. It's just the way the material is made.

 

[boccman]

Thanks for the info. This is the first pipe i bought from you guys...looking forward to using it....

Are you guys planing on making and Sherlock style black pipes?

We use 15% distilled water in our Pipe Sauce. This helps thin the VG (our juice is nearly 100% VG). It also makes it more friendly in tanks and cartos. I have not heard and bad reports on diluting with distilled water. Further more I have not heard of any health risks for PG other than possible allergies. PG is in a ton of everyday products.

Congrats to all the new ePipemod owners! Matt is a great vendor. Unlike the guy at Vapebash that is selling my Ithaka that I paid in full for back in December. Some vendors are clowns and some are awesome. Any new customers here, rest assured Matt is a great one.

Yes, that was a welcome and an incognito rant all at the same time.

Thats sucks! But ditto.... matt and the gang at EPM are the best!

one more time for the newbs

I appreciate the work you put into these helpful videos. Not many vendors are so concerned with safety and education, and there's a sharp enough learning curve for newbs as it is.
