no, just cotton, i tried dripping on a broken 3/32. it sucked.waiting on a diamond disc i ordered. should got the 545 now that it was just posted that they are better. oh well.
Oh, and I found dripping on stone to be at least as good as in a tank. Was your stone seated on the bottom?
yea,, its was a high ohm coil though. i didnt try different setups. ill just wait till i can make my wicks, get it working good n my aga, the get an rsst
gdeal, just used your ribbon, wound up at 1.0Ω on the 1/8 wick. so far so good. havent found any difference in flavor yet, but it does seem like the response time is a bit quicker. will see how it performs in the days ahead, thanks
Ceramic wick cut from Topfin bubblestone for AGA-T2 with 4mm previously milled-out wickhole. Wick pass-through diameter give or take 3.5mm - 3.8mm so juice can travel up unrestricted. Top reservoir of wick is 13/64 for a 3/4, 30ga Kanthal wrap, and comes within 1mm of the cap's roof. Top back side of wick ground round to accommodate the curvature of the cap. Section where coil is to be wrapped is 11/64. Base of wick had to be taper-cut so it could touch the bottom of the tank, as little room exists between the tank's post and the glass cylindrical housing.
I usually shoot for 1.7Ω with a 5/6, but a 3/4 would take me below 1.0Ω. It's doable for you I think. A 4/5 had me around 1.2 - 1.4Ω, but don't like that vape with mechanicals.
Low speed, no pressure on the wheel, keep it wet. Drills generally have more power than Dremels, so if you'll end up using one, go real easy on it.

OK so I have a question to ask because I cant work it out from the charts at the office, for what ever reason it's got me... brain freeze... whatever....
a piece of stainless pipe
O.D. 22mm
I.D. 19mm
what size thread can be tappped and die with that material ?
my estimate is 21mm thread size
is that like 13/16" or 7/8" or more like 53/64"
My goal is how I should have started this question
If I have a 22mm pipe with indide diameter of 19mm how can I thread that material to be able to use the pipe itself as the nut and bolt side so to speak ie: tap one section and die the other section so it can screw into itself. Purpose is to make a mod.
I know someone here would know the answer to this.... and for wahtever reason my metal working skills are almost non existent today cant think....
Anyone???

Elias
Or can a metric thread be used ?

From the sounds of it......you would have to make your "male" end first, then tap whatever size your "male" came out to be mm/inches into the pipe. Your pipes should then mate up seamlessly (hopefully)

I knew this would happen
. Where is the list?I am just speculating here but the standard thread size for most mod end caps seems to 20 x 1mm. So would threading the outside of one and the inside of the other with those dimensions work?

wow congrats on the new provari! the new ones look really nice!
exactly, that center post is so long... its hard to get a low res coil on it but this time I got the wire for this
25g !and the wick has to be really flush with the top of the post. There's really no room for error with the ZAP; quite a challenge to have a low res ceramic going on it...

The only way I can think of doing it is such a process that it is scaring me, that is to use the lathe to make the thread, the other problem is the lathes we have at work are huge and I would have to buy a tool to fit it to make the threads that are that fine, but yes 1mm is what is needed, 22 - 2 (1mm thread 1mm meat) the other end 19 + 2 (1mm thread and 1mm meat) 21mm thread size is the target I guess going by those calculations
But if I could find a tap and die 21mm or some equivalent imperial size with a fine thread then thats the ticket...
20mm Little less than 13/16"
21mm Little more than 13/16"
need to go UNF or UNEF but I am so confused....
UNC that size would be around 8 threads per inch, UNF would be around 14 and UNEF would be around 20
Looking at the smoktech mod it looks like 14 per inch
I think I have found my tap and die 21mm 0.75mm pitch, leaves 1.something meat

Should you decide to make a short vid on it, I'd love to see it. You know if you go down to 24ga you won't need a rebuild kit anymore as it welds it altogether ...exactly, that center post is so long... its hard to get a low res coil on it but this time I got the wire for this
What could be better in life than pushing limits ...
It's all nice and fine how ~ZEN does it with 32ga and thin SS, but when it actually gets serious it's indeed a different story altogether.
Yes, probably "The Challenge" if there is another one.

(my attepmt at the Hello world wick hole trim...)
Almost had it done
I could have been more careful. I'll try this again when the moral rises, I'll have to stay flat on the grinder this time....

Elias, did you test your white ceramic wick yet? Can't recall if you posted about that yet. Cannot locate the Topfin stuff here in Aus yet.
Do these look worth a try:

They still havent arrived yet, guess there is a huge backlog of Easter eggs at AustPost, heck I have some other things I am waiting on and nothing .... getting frustrated....
I looked at those on eBay and I wanted to grab one of those to try it out.... also saw a similar one at the pet supply store at Bankstown a few weeks back, was thinking of grabbing some firing it to see if it falls apart etc.... dont know though....

That coil looks like a monster on it.... looks like an impossible wrap yet there are the photos.....
