Bulli ain't really mesh friendly and I have fat fingers. I've tried the oxidized mesh method but the kanthal just shorts out at 3.7V every time.

I use a blow torch to heat the rolled mesh till red hot then continue for 20s and dunk into cold filtered water. This process is repeated 3x. After that I saturate the rolled mesh a with juice and set it on fire. Also repeat 3x. Pretty much the SOP for Line attys but the kanthal still shorts out.

Eating wise I have not notice any significant changes. So far it's just isolated to vaping.

Have you tried oxidizing using e Jack Frost method..?

It works like a charm! Also, it shortens your torching and break-in period.

Hi Rul,

Will take note on flavor change. So far have been on lychee mostly for 2 weeks? Lol

Have some 510s around and actually dripped some strong tasting ones. Work well as I could taste lychee after awhile.

Sorry but what n which are considered mesh? And are there mods to get? Mess on mash ;)
Atties hv mesh. Look inside and you'll see.

Also, gen-type rebuildables also utilize mesh.

And then, there are hybrid mods.

Here's e downer:
Only atties are readily available. E rest, u have to wait on lists.

How does the jack frost method work? Use ice water?

Ice water... not! Lol!

E name is misleading but it's coined after e guy who did it.

Here's how to 'Jack Frost' your mesh:
1. Cut a strip of mesh 15mm x 50mm.

2. Get a blow torch out.

3. Torch and concentrate on e edges.

4. After you're done with e edges, then give a quick blast to both sides. No quenching & lighting with liqs/mixers needed.

5. Coil and have fun whilst enjoying e return of e flavour monster!

Hmm... I did tt e last two weeks, but couldn't capture myself on video whilst torching although I bought e auto-firing torch. I was using some tongs (not thongs!).

Immediately after, coiled and adjusted and it didn't even short out. A very pleasant first-time experience indeed.

Maybe we could meet over kopi or smtg. U bring mesh & butane. I bring my torch and tongs. I don't mind sharing knowledge.

You're having problems with Google..?

Try googling for:

1) SS Mesh 325 or 400 (themeshco.)
2) Butane Torch (any hardware stores)
3) Where to buy Kanthal 32 AWG? (or look @ Syniche's shop)

These things are not prohibited, you can buy them with no issues. It's e atties and rebuildables tt you'll have a problem acquiring.

After you've gotten those stuffs, gimme a pm. So that at least you could try on yr own right after.
