Hand blown Pyrex tanks from phiniac.com are now available!

[moorea]

I will post a photo sometime soon of my little drill holes, they are tiny but handled 100% vg without issues!

And if anyone wants, we will provide detailed directions (maybe even a video) including on how to make a cheap wooden jig!

moorea - you use a 1/8th bit? I'll have to give it a try one of these days .... I got 6 boxes of cartos from Chief during his last sale.

LET THERE BE ALUMINUM!!!

We have some testing and pricing to do. As soon as that is all done we will be adding them to the shopping cart. We will only have 4 sets available to start. So far they are working really well. Have not tried them with liquid yet, but they are coming on off just like the plastic ones!

wow! those are beautiful! will we be able to order just the aluminum caps?

Yes, actually for now I think that is the only way we are going to sell them. Later on we might have an option to choose black or aluminum at checkout... but for now I think they will just be sold individually in sets of two!

 

[BluSwatch]

They are the same height as the black caps? So the carto will extend the same amount on the high boys?
They look nice!

Fusions or Boges?

I got boge's from spring vapor per your recommendation...

I am loving these aluminum caps and the photos came out really good! Here are some more pics:

 

[matador]

Is there an o-ring in the inner ring of the cap to seal the carto? Can't tell from the pics.

 

[moorea]

I don't think all of them in the photo have the inner o-ring, I was photographing while hubby was installing o-rings and testing... but each set of caps will come with inner o-rings installed on both caps as well as 2 extra inner o-rings and 2 extra outer rings (or maybe just one of each not 100% sure yet!

Oh I know I'll have lots of questions. Think I'll wait until tank gets to me b4 asking that-a-way no one will have to repeat the answers, lol. Well I think I'll ask the first question......1. reckon how long it'll take it to get to me? *goes off and sings the ol' tune "Mr. Postman" while setting up camp at the mailbox.....

Best I can do is tell you it has left our hands and is in the hands of the United States Postal System. You should have received tracking info (which the USPS does not always update). We have been having really good luck so far with First Class Packages getting to their destination very quickly... but there is no telling with the USPS.

Very happy to hear it arrived and you like it! I wish there was a way to make these tanks look like they do in person in the photographs! The videos help a bit, but I think they are nicer when you are holding them then they are in videos as well!

And of course when you have spent enough time with you new Phiniac to get to know it, please visit our website and leave a review!

The Phiniac Pyrex Tank Reviews - Phiniac Glass

 

[moorea]

We have added a couple of video reviews to our Video Library:

Phiniac Glass Video Library

If anyone is so inclined to do a video review, we would love to include. Just post here when you are done and let us know where to find it!

The Sneaky Petes should be here soon! I am thinking sometime between the middle of next week to the beginning of the following week and I have been trying to come up with a good contest, I know what the prize will be, just not sure of what the contest will be.

I was thinking about opening a thread where we will conduct general chit chat. Tell us how your day went, what your favorite e-liquid is, how your phiniac tank is looking and working. At the end of a predetermined amount of time, we will then use a random generator to pick a post number and whoever posted that number will win a Sneaky Pete and a tank of choice from the website.

What does everyone think...

Oh and I have some tanks that should be ready sometime between Sunday and Tuesday! Most of them are to fill custom requests, but there will be some that are not. In the group that are not for custom requests are some tanks that will compliment the woods in the sneaky petes!
