I'm glad you found a new outlet for your creative urges and share them here with us!
Sound like you have a had a very fulfilling life so far, winning #1 in dance competition is a great achievement!

Well, I have to log off shortly, 4:30am comes in way too early to have to get up for work.

Have a good night all ;)

Night Drifter, catch you on the rebound. :)

    That thing scares me :unsure: :p ... Sexy stuff you got there Nailz :banana:

    Just placed my order. Picked up the Nemesis MOD from Focalecigs, the Magma RDA with a drip tip and magnets for the nemesis from FT, batteries and case from Triangevape, and a charger from Amazon. All totaled it was 58 bucks. not to shabby. Thanks again for the assistance Nikkita6!

    You are so very welcome! And it looks like you made out like a bandit getting all that stuff for under $60! Now that is what you call a successful shopping spree. :)

    I love the look of the Maraxus, but to be honest, it is crap, voltage drop is horrible on it, I don't nomally notice that kind of thing, but can with the Maraxus and the fire button is tiny, sometimes it works, sometimes not, and then holding it is not fun, as has sharp edges, so it doesn't get used, just sits on my shelf for me to look at :D

    USPS tracking says the lighthouse (Squape) should be here Saturday, really hoping so, had another crap night at work with the kayfuns, just got to get through tonight and then hopefully will have the lighthouse for work then.

    So basically you have a "collectors item" on your hands with the black Maraxus :blink: .. well it still makes for a good conversation piece. :p

    The "lighthouse" :laugh: .. I am looking forward to you getting it so we can talk shop. Fingers crossed it will be a great replacement for your PITA Kayfuns, and maybe you will learn to love all those windows :laugh:

    I really need to look up youtube videos for building the lighthouse, got plenty of build experience, but know these things all have different 'best' ways to build and wick them, I'll be using micro coil with cotton, so if know any good videos, please let me know :)

    Nailz .. being that I know you are a smart man, you can just look at the build pics from review .. The biggest thing with the Squape is that you have to set the cotton at least half way down into the side of the juice channels.

    Most of the early build directives for the Squape were counter to this, but I have found that it is absolutely necessary to prevent gurgling .. PBusardo did a Sqaupe review, and he does a build on video too, so if you must see a video, then watch his. :)

    :laugh: There is no turning back now :p ... Oh nice to hear to about the Paps too, hope mine shows up as nice as you described yours. I have loved the Paps lux for long time! :wub:
    Got my SS Paps today. I have the worst top cap mojo lately, the threads on this one are defective in the opposite way that my Stingray cap is hosed. I can't thread any atty onto it, it starts on the first thread and seizes. Two different mods in succession from two different places and top cap thread problems on both :(

    No it's not just top caps, I have a 3D atomizer from an even different place that is well built, but doesn't have Nemesis hybrid threads. It fits on my Astro in hybrid mode. How's that for bad thread mojo.

    Yours should work perfectly, I think I've had enough thread issues for all of us :)

    Aww crap .. sorry to hear that my friend. Jeez :( I hope whoever you bought it from cooperates with a proper replacement for it. It sucks to wait for something that you are really looking forward to, and then its defective.

    I have to say an extra pray to the Vape Gods for you .. this kind of stuff ruins the fun of vape mail a little.

    Thanks Nikki, the sentiment is greatly appreciated, but at least Quasar from the same shipment is rocking! To console myself I did something I rarely ever do and built a sub ohm dual coil setup in it. Used a couple of my expensive juices and all is better now.

    For your amusement I dug out my weird 3D and took a pic. A 3D hybrid on an Astro just doesn't sound right. Sorry about the low quality, but kinky porn is supposed to be artistically crappy :)

    ETA: Oh yeah, forgot to mention it came from the other place, and I already started a ticket. It'll probably be a couple of days before I hear anything but I'll let you know.

    Probably the problem is with the nemesis and not the 3d. I had the same problem with the supposed good nemesis on the other place.

    I think the problem is with both units. The Nemesis you mention is the one I have, but this 3D is ChiYou/Astro compatible which is not Nemesis compatible. I guess it must be made for a specific vendor's Nemesis clone.

    I believe the final total for the Vamo V5 turned out to be 2180. Thank you Doris.

    The 2nd V5 just arrived and it did come with a small manual but is missing that small gasket, I really think I can make something that will work if needed, my brother doesn't think the gasket is even needed?

    2 of the $12.90 nemy also arrived today. :)
