I use some 5.00 stand that I bought at walmart. They are like little bleachers so I can read the labels.

Will you tell us more about these little "bleachers"? What part of Walmart did you find these? Jewelry, hardware, etc?
I want some.

OK, I couldn't wait for Thunderball to tell us, so I did some searching and found this. I think it's what he's using there:

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-3-Tier-Bamboo-Cabinet-Organizer/16456523

Just my luck, it's not available at any store near Columbia. I'd have to drive to St. Louis or KC and they don't sell it online. :mad: I bet if it said "Duck Dynasty" on it they'd have them!

I used some laminate strips aka "formica" and a piece of thin paneling to create an organizer for my flavorings. This goes into a Harbor Freight tool box that has my syringes & measuring equipment. I use a cigar box as a "serving tray" for my mixes and my vaporizers, right on my desk. :D

I was given a huge block of foam that's like styrofoam made of soft plastic. It's light, but very durable and I can't complain cuz it was free lol. I ran out of space in the original block and I'm expecting a bunch more flavors this week, so I made a bigger block this weekend and marked the bottle tops to make it easier to find what I want at a glance. It took a little time, but I love the hobby vaping has become and it was worth it. :D

I have some foam like that - I might give it a try. Can I ask how you cut the holes for the vials?

Sure you can Spazzer! I actually used a small and very sharp paring knife. About four bottles from the end I realized an apple corer would probably be much easier and efficient. :oops:
As long as your knife is nice and sharp though, it's really not hard at all to cut through that stuff.
After cutting a row I just grab the middle with my needle nosed, give it a good squeeze, and pull the cored piece out. The bottom of the hole is obviously rarely flat, but it doesn't matter and pushing the bottle down in far enough isn't a problem unless you missed more than you thought (in which case you just go in and grab the extra).

@ Partyannimal- I like the labels on your caps- This way, U can identify from above when stored close together. Hot!

Thank you! :D
Yeah, I convinced myself in the past that it wasn't a big deal to grab a bottle, see what it is, and go from there (they've always been in alphabetical order). Then I had a moment of intelligence (yes, it happens lol) and realized it would be less work to just label them all.

Did you just use labels that stuck onto the caps of the flavoring?

This is a great idea

I actually tried using round yard sale type stickers, but they didn't stick well because of the little ridges around the top of most of the lids.
Believe it or not, I used a bottle of white-out that I haven't had much use for in quite some time. By the time I got to the last bottle, the first ones were dry enough to write on them with my fine point sharpie.
Yup, I'm all about recycling unused crap I have laying around lol.

No problem!
Here's (hopefully) a better pic of the block in my mobile DIY kit lol. I didn't notice how crappy the pics I posted were until I saw them on the PC. :facepalm:
