I was moving furniture in the basement the other day and found a long lost carto from a Taryn spin mishap. Bet it was the one that left a dent in the ceiling five years ago!
Been a while since I used carto's, but I still know where it is. In a zip bag, the carto's didn't go flying (unless the string broke, or it slipped out of my hand). :D

Egads, I'm torn between amazement and thankfulness I missed that period of vaping "time". Someone might have died.

Come to think, I still don't quite know how I never started a fire smoking.... That I know of, in any case. Me and the kid are both pyros, but I guess careful, thoughtful, legal pyros in the sense that we like setting off fireworks and bonfires.

But spinning cartos and flashlights? Nu-uh.

Guess everything happens for a reason.

I'm finding vape life just oh-so-adventurous enough, LOL. :)

Also, after my various life adventures over the years, I have come to prize nice, peaceful times, without feeling like I'm going to have an incipient heart-attack. I actively listen to as little news as I can (between the kid and the husband, I get alt.right and crooked.left so I form my own opinions).

My sense of adventure these days is more in line with mountain climbing (with ropes et. al) not waking up in a drainage ditch, wondering how I got there.

By the way, the type of stories above^^^^^^ are best not told to parents, I have found. I was giving my mother a guided, storied tour of the times I remembered in college, I don't think I have ever seen her paler, so I shut right up. My thought was, "Hey, all in the past, I'm totally fine," but that was not apparently HER thoughts.

My kid casually will sometimes inject such stories, but I have more internal fortitude, I usually laugh, ask for more details, then tell him off.

I never did spin my cartos...maybe once, to test the method, but I relied on the good old fashioned thermometer-shake.

After cleaning my walls up, nice a nice, I committed to the condom method.

That lasted until I got "THE BIG GUYS", at which point, syringe won out.

I made a sling out of string and a small pill bottle. It worked really well, and with a bit of paper towel stuffed in the bottom, it absorbed any juice leakage. :D

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

I did break the string once with vigorous spinning...and sent the pill bottle sling into another room :lol:

Guess y'all used it for something different than me. I used it to get the water out after I boiled them (to clean them). Boil for 15 minutes, rinse, fresh water, boil again, rinse, fresh water, boil again, rinse, then spin to get the water out, then let dry for a few days. I still have bags of cleaned ones sitting on the shelf. :facepalm:

To fill I just put drops in and let it soak down, then added more until it was saturated.

You had far more grasshopper patience than I did...I used the Taryn spin for drying and filling...with not much time between.

My first Taryn setup involved an old shoelace and a carto condom to hold it, just for accelerated drying. After a few flying objects I pried the connector off a dead eGo battery, drilled it and installed the shoelace. I discovered clearos a few weeks later so that device barely got used lol.

I believe that was called the REVERSE Taryn Spin*. We'll have to wait for @Katdarling (or anyone else with a memory).

* Did we REALLY...??? :lol:

In the meantime, this word from our sponsors:
