Have one more question. On the Taifun. Are you getting enough airflow through the device? I have mines but haven't built it yet.

About to rip out the chimney and drill a larger air hole.

STOPPPPPPP! Do not drill on your Taifun! I have two, one I keep the 1.5 mm air hole in, and the other has the air flow tube all the way, which makes the air hole 2mm, both the 1.5 and 2mm size I find to be sufficient.

So often I hear stories about drilled out rba's that end up leaking .. a lot, so don't do it. Get your first build going, and at best, take the air flow tube out of the deck .... please Weezy, don't kill the Taifun :cry:

I guess the stars were not aligned correctly, really thought I was quick enough on the Tailfun gt-nope. No kill fun for another 8 hours.

Sorry no pics of the Panzer 18938 from the last GB yet but I'm not sure I can take a better pic then the ones EC has listed. It is polished and I hope all of them plus or minus the first 100 shipped are as nice as these 2. I think #100 is coming tomorrow? #298, #423-425?. Doris thank you so much they are AWESOME at $16.90 shipped :):)

Since we can not post links for now for any new readers, just type in the sku in the search box and it will bring up the item, pretty simple.:)

Haku go buy a lottery ticket you are EXTREMELY lucky, that is so cool 1 of 5 people on the planet here won:)

I really appreciate the offer it is very humbling but I have to decline, I can show your post to my family and say "see I am good for something". I fiqured I was shooting myself in the foot but I am more happy seeing someone else here win then me.

Yes Yes Yes!
Play with a device and understand it before modifying it. I killed my first kayfun. Still sad.

The off topic stuff helps to keep this thread interesting.

:laugh: So true! .. Listen, I have said it before, and I will say it again, I cannot live by product pages, and sku #'s alone! I am ALIVE dammmit! :banana:

I like the ebb and flow of this thread ... its just like Life, you never know whats gonna happen. Just when everything feels comfy, and serene .... BOOM! :D

:ohmy: say it ain't so? Aww man, not a Kayfun :cry: ... bad bugs! :laugh: But seriously, you have my deepest sympathy, that has to suck :(

keyman is the true key man

hey man, seriously, i could talk to Doris to change the destination of the atty to make things faster, so you'll be able to show the post to your fam, but to show the trophy as well ;)

Geez ... the two of you are so nice. That is probably why you lucked out in the first place Haku :)

Now where is Marilyn again? I swear, I think that woman is two timing me :p

I'm here. I finished drilling the Kayfun 3.1. Since I have a backup because the negative post was stripped. I used a piece of Kanthal and slid it between the screw vertically. Tightened it up. I completely removed the air adjustment screw and drilled that with a 1/8th bit. Countersunk the positive post screw from both sides for better air travel. :vapor: Better air flow now. Whistles when I draw.

I'll leave the Taifun alone for now. But will rip the chimney out. Got spare chimneys and o-rings just in case.
