Sorry for the delay everyone. I didnt run away on you all. I had to commit and become a registered accessories supplier to continue using the forum. So......I did. And here we are, my number one of two threads I am allowed. So I will be getting things up and running shortly and begin my journey down the road of suppliering. *gulp* So, this is the replacement of my first thread from before. I would like to hear back from you guys who already have been testing my first batch of tips. I have been trying some new things out, getting close to perfection and since I am going forward fully I will be adding some other "ideas" I have been having into the mix and realm of possible accessories. Thanks for bearing with me and I hope to please everyone shortly with some awesome new products. Thanks for looking- Joe C. P.S. heres the original pics of my tips and ill get some other s up soon of the newer stuff. DSCN0617.jpgDSCN0618.jpgDSCN0620.jpgDSCN0627.jpg

The wood is either stabilized wood which has been pressure treated with acrylic resin penetrated throughout or coated in CA (cyanoacrylate aka superglue) which also provides a clear waterproof barrier. My first batch used some soft woods that were swelling also due me testing out the finishes so those are going to be avoided for now till I perfect their finishes. And as for custom tips, I am willing to listen to your ideas and offer if I can to make some custom tips. Depends on what materials you want them made from and exactly what shape you desire. They are hand turned on a lathe so the design will be symmetrical and round but can be cut in various shapes. Think of the leg of a chair with the various rounded and square cut designs cut into them.1.jpg

Hi inter_ceptor00, your tips look great.

Here's a question: I've never dripped, nor have I ever liked the round style carts or drip tips - always preferred the whistle tipped styles. But I do need mouthpieces for some rebuildable atomizers/PVs though. Any chance you would make a whistle tipped shaped tip? Shaped sort of like the tips of ego tank carts? I'd be interested in 510 fitting tips (that would fit a Zenesis), and a 701 fitting tip (that would fit a Genisis LV).

Wow, those look great! Would look fantastic on some of my wood mods. Are they all 510? Have you considered a 306 tip?

these are all 510 sized...next round is coming with orings (got some calipers and took measurements so fit should be universal like most driptips) as for a 306 type...Id need to work on it. I never used 306 atties but Im sure it could be done. Like the bazzoka DTs I think right? long and fit over the entire atty?

Glad to hear at least some are holding up for ya landlord. The next round will be much better

hmm.... I probable could work some out. They wouldnt be nearly as neat I think though because I would have to hand shape them as opposed to just turning them neatly on a lathe. Ill give it a shot though and see what happens...

Got two in the mail a few weeks ago. They are great! I've been using them exclusively since I got them and will continue to do so. I'm not very good at reviews, but they are solid, made well, and the grain seems exceptional. Simple as that.

The only complaint I have is the lack of o-ring issue which interceptor is fixing, one of the tips are removable quite easily (however it's still stays on snugly if it's in the mouth or inverted), but it's not that problematic. The other one I received has a much tighter fit and is a bit longer, so I've been using that one more often. The fit might loosen eventually as wood is sloughed away after multiple insertions/removals. If he adds the o-rings, they will be perfect and well worth the buy.
