Have you tried a coppervape?
It will put those expensive squonkers into perspective.
;)


And to stay on topic:
GP with Bellus.
Yes, its a very nice mod.
And yes, I have clones that are built just as nice.
Edited to add: the vape Syndicate Ti drip tip cost more than the atomizer.

I've got the Custom Classic Squonker, worth every penny. The raw block of 7068 Aluminium alone is over $200 plus Cory's machining is exquisite. I've tired the Coppervape, it's not bad, but it's not even in the same Universe as a Custom Classic squonker.

I made automotive parts for years.
7068 is automotive aluminum.
Its good stuff, and I prefer it over titanium for connecting rods.

A CC is a very nice, very well made mod.
One of the better made Ive seen but it doesn't have $200 worth of aluminum. If it does, Corey desparately needs a new supplier.

Look it up, it extremely expensive. It was actually a classified metal up until 2000.

I'm sure if you bought it in large bulk it would be much cheaper, but he doesn't buy in mass bulk.

Okay before you get the wrong idea..
I love the CC mods.
The first brass one I saw literally made my jaw drop.
Just elegant.
IMHO its the best looking squonker made, but I like brass mods.
If they didn't cost handgun money I'd own one.

I am familiar with lots of exotic alloys.
Its a 70 series aluminum alloy with a really high maganese content.
(Thats actually why its pricey...just not that pricey).
It's also not weldable.
;)

Its a class of aluminum that includes several variations.
Its used to make racing parts like high performance piston rods (i have made these with 7068T6) and high performance hydraulic/transmission parts.
It's used in places where high strength and low weight matters, and Ti costs too much.

It's a good choice for a high end mod and should resist damage alot more than say a Cherry Bomber.

That clear tip brings it all together!!!

Yeah it does, it comes with an Ultem tip but I have a number of Kennedy/Goon drip tips and this glass one is perfect. I love the Vape I get from it, wonderful Squonk combination. What I love about the Druga also is that it's so easy to do a sleeper coil, just drop it in.

How is that drip tip? Seems like glass would hold more heat? Love the look of that one. Wanted to order one for my xrda
The Druga comes with an Ultem Drip Tip, that's just one of the many Kennedy/Goon drip tips I have. Glass doesn't hold heat and runs cool, I like them.

My GP PAPS V4 with my new stainless steel Pulse BF on top. Fantastic little single coil atty for both dripping and squonking.

That is a beautiful set up. Curious, the gold ring there, is that part of the atty a special add on?
Very elegant

All Vandy Vape products have gold plated decks so on all their products like the pulse, icon etc will have the gold showing around the bottom. Sometimes I wish it was just stainless steel cause the gold kinda looks out of place on certain mods. I like this look though cause the gold goes well with the ultum driptip.
