[HELP] Syringe Carto Mod (Homeade)

[BigFatDan]

Ok, I saw USAGold101's tutorial on how to make a "Cartomizer Syringe mod" which is located - Here

Anyways. This looked very interesting to me. I've always liked the look of the tank mods. Looks very mechanical and whatnot. So I went down to my local Target's Pharmacy and tried to pick up 2 20mL syringes and I didn't want to tell them it was for my ecig because they would've thought I was like a ...... addict or something so I went and said "They're for my uncle, he takes a special shot in his stomach every day and he told me to get 2 of the 20mL syringes" they asked his name and whatnot and I knew that I shouldn't continue the lie so I went and "called' my uncle and pretended to talk with him and apparently he found some extras and didn't need them so I told the person nevermind.

So my point is - Does anyone know a STORE I can purchase these 20mL syringes in?? I heard I could get them from the Tractor Supply Co (I also heard you can buy PG and VG there buy the gallon, I'll be checking that out too in case I get into DIY) I would really prefer to not buy syringes online as I want to make this tank thing quickly.


Also, if this tank does work nicely, I'll be making a very very very detailed tutorial on how to make it.

Thanks everyone,
-Big Dan

Just tell them what they're for. A lot of pharmacies will gladly sell them to you if they are sure they're not for anything illicit, it's only the needles they they are really strict on as a general rule

I've heard they are sold at tractor supply.

I've heard they are sold at tractor supply.

Yeah I've heard that as well. But I just went down to cvs pharmacy and they just enlightened me that the CT state law only allows 1mL syringes to be sold. Hopefully tractor supply co has the 20mL syringes. I'm going to see about that tomorrow. Thanks for the help everyone.

I bought mine at tractor supply and you can buy from them online as well.. You might see if you can buy them from the pharmacy without the needles.. tell them it is for some kind craft you are doing..

bought mine at tractor supply it and the pg are in the cattle section back where they have the vet stuff. I did get my 1ml syringe for mixing from walmart and they were happy to give it to me when I told them the reason. Did you ever stop to think by explaining it to them they might be happy to see you going to a healthier lifestyle?

 

[BigFatDan]

Tainted, I tried that at CVS and showed them my eCig and whatnot and they said they couldn't do it. You may have asked nice people and I may have asked an .... Either way, I'd just rather buy them at TSC because I wont get hassled.

 

[Taintedhalo]

Sorry you went through that Dan..they shouldn't have been rude with you. Hope you find everything you need snd good luck with the modding!

 

[BigFatDan]

I actually finished it, and it works!

I have made a few of these and even made one that will work with ce2s. They do work well and are very cheap and easy to make. I have since graduated to a j-tank and a couple of little mamas. If you really like the carto/tank method you should consider something like these in the future. You won't ever have to worry about the rubber end popping off in your pocket or if it is jarred real good one time and losing your juice.

Good luck!

 

[BigFatDan]

Thanks but I don't have much excess money, even to buy standard tanks or anything really. I'm even going to start buying 100% vg liquids and cut them down with PG from TSC.

I cut the syringe a little longer and use a lighter to fuse the syringe to the rubber on the bottom and I fuse the top part all the way around and leave a little bit of unfused space to fill with. They don't really pop off anymore and work for me. :3

ok here are the syringe tanks I made using 10ml and some grommets (I forget the size) the plugs are insulin syringe plungers (just the rubber) I washed them with DAWN and soaked them in 91% iso alch. the pretty ones are the wifeys...

 

[BigFatDan]

Ohhh stealth, those are beautiful, mine look like they're ghetto-rigged, haha (and by mine, I mean one)

So you use the grommets like a stopper and you pull them out to refill?

 

[stealfdawg]

The grommets seal the tank to the carto the stopper is a rubber plunger from an insulin syringe total cost to me zilch nada nothing ......the stopper goes in a 1/8 inch hole in the side of the tank top side....

I ran across some 3/4" polycarbonite syringes at the grocery store. Made for injecting Juice into Turkeys. $3.00 each.
I managed to make two tanks out of two syringes. One I cut the end off of one syringe, then cut about an inch off the other.
By drilling out the injection hole, (7/16?) I could jam a smokymizer in the hole, tight enough that it does not leak. I used the rest to make a standard tank, using the plungers.

Phil, nice idea with the screw, prolly way easier to fill.

Victory - sweet, ima try that.

Best part is not messing with the rubber stoppers
