I have 3 bins of stuff steeping .... I didn't care for them the 1st round, so I'm letting them "mature". LOL The Boba's and Raf are in that catagory .... I traded my Gorilla juice, not enough banana for me, and I didn't want to .......ize it. If I don't like those 2, I'll trade them rather than messing up someone else's perfection.

Just popping in while I wait for a file to upload. I so wish my full time gig good be this tank thing.

Any how I've never drank beer... I wonder if that actually tastes better out of a glass or if it is all in peoples head. I have a bad "Sprite" habbit and I actually prefer it from a can!

As for soda I like it in a can better. I think it weird to pour from a can to a cup. I prefer my beer in a bottle. Out of glass you only taste the beer, in a can you kinda taste the can. Nothing beats a nice bottle of Fat Tire or Pete's on cold cold day by the campfire :)

(steeping can completely change a juice)

Here's shortcut I use to decrease or eliminate the need for steeping. I put some boiling water in a crockpot about 2 inches deep (you can use about anything to put the water in). Then with your mix in its bottle with the lids on tight, just put the bottles in the super hot water for 15 -20 minutes. It melds the ingredients together very well. Saves months off your steeping. :)

does the hubby know your prized possession is a woody????:D
Thank you much for the kind words! Wonderful Blog by the way. And yes I too am very concerned that everything matches and looks good. I like my drip to match and my prized possession is my woody. But if someone doesn't buy it soon my prized possession will be my new dragon fly tank!

Zilla, I think you need to brush your toothies as you have fire coming out of your mouth.

Question please - Are the caps on the tall boy the same size as the regular size Phiniac? Reason I ask is because I like to use Resurrectors and I like the top of the carto to poke thru the top a little. I have arithis in my thumb and when I have a small bit of the carto coming out, it's easier for me to get the carto in and out of tanks.

OK .. I gotta get cleaned up and venture out into the world.

Things to meet, people to do.

Have fun out in the real world!

does the hubby know your prized possession is a woody????:D

I can answer that in so many ways but I don't want to get banned from the forum... I guess I should have specified my prize "vaping possession", but I think the hubby would like the original statement better, he is a little twisted that way :p

Yes, the caps are the same size on all of our current tanks. If you are considering a tank for the Resurrectors and like the carto to stick out a bit, go with the Tall Boy, the Resurrectors is flush with the cap on the XL!

I haven't seen that avitar in a very long time, of all the kitty avitars I have seen that is my favorite.

Why thank you, moo. I haven't used this one for a while. :lol:

I was hoping you were going to say that. I was looking at the different sizes at your site and noticed than the XL boy was flush. So tell me, do you have any of the tall boys in textures? Those have me real interested. For some reason, I like subtle. :lol:

I don't know why I haven't mentioned it before, but I have always loved it, it cracks me up every time I see it.

Yes, we do like them flush! I don't like it when the carto is actually inside the caps as that limits which drip tips you can use and to me the flush looks cleaner.

We originally sized the tall boy to work with the lava caps, but that did not happen as the bottom cap is made a little bigger then the top cap. This is perfectly fine for plastic tanks, but glass is less forgiving and the bottom cap was a little too tight on our tank. As it turned out however the Dual Coil Carto from Madvapes were the tiniest bit to small for the XL tank, so we decided to work with the size we had already made for the lava's. As luck would have it, it will also work for those like you who like some carto sticking out with the Resurrectors. The Resurrectors and the DC's from Mad Vapes are really close in size, so if you look at the photos the Resurrectors will stick out just about as much as the DC does in the photo (but the tiniest bit more)

Moving forward this brings up a new question. Would anyone be interested in a slightly shorter regular sized tank so the carto sticks out a bit. This of course will hold a little less juice. We can call it Phiniac's Shorty!! Hubby would love that as I am on the short side! It can be a tribute to me and he can then have two shorties!

As for the textures, we had a small set back. They use a different process then the blowing and they did not pass quality control, but it is easily fixed and we are working on it. That being said, I will include a textured Tall Boy in the Valentines day batch!

Interesting trick !! ... I'll have to try it out later tonight when I get back. I guess it wouldn't cook it but .. what, 'steam it' a little .. what would that be .. 'poaching'?

Any downside to doing this?

Thanks,

Beer taste best out of a tall frosty mug.

Also, the "Phinatics" idea sounds good! Hopefully it gets as big as the whole "Lava Corps" thing
