honestly... you can not find me with out a wood mod.... i onely ever visit my "other material" mods at home.... for me wood is were it is at.... a well built wood mod is spot on for my "knock around mod"
my hog is capable of fitting the bill as a tuff and tumble mod... but its just to special to me...
its gorgeous and vapes hard...
i dare anyone to catch me with out wood wile im out and about...

I have a question for all of you collectors of fine wood mods. How many of you have a "knock around mod", as well as your "woodies"? Or do you use something small and unassuming when you're out, like an Ego. I don't think I could go back to that...

The way I figure it, my beautiful wood mods are especially for out and about since they will be so cool. I don't want to hide them at home. Don't worry, I'll take good care of them especially since the "curse of the wood mods" has struck. I'm designing a handbag for myself that will have little cargo pockets all around, so my mods will be safe and sound.

I figure I'll have 4-5 different wood mods, and I have a Krimson Kustom Evercool VV coming that runs on 2-18650's for when I just don't feel like dealing with recharging batts. I probably will have Mike make me one like this, too, should he be so inclined.

People thought that about me when I tossed in the towel giving up almost 24 years at my job to move across the country to a place where I knew nobody and start over again. I have never regretted it. It felt so liberating to get the heck out of the big city and to a place where I could breath FRESH air and see beauty instead of traffic 24 hours a day!! Only YOU know when the time is right and what feels right for YOU and your family Mike. I don't think you'll regret what your doing because I'm thinking you're feeling the same way I felt about getting away from the big city lifestyle and downsizing your life ;)

Well right now the whole garage is filled with boxes from one of the 3 storages.
I still have to go empty the other 2 units and then sort through everything to sell it off. I'm not dragging everything across the country. It's mainly just my tools and Amy's xmas stuff going.
Soon as I get everything sorted and gone through its time to save up for the move. Will take a few months I think to get the funds together, so I will be making mods for awhile here and before I mode I plan on having a lot of bodies rough cut so there is no delay when I move.

It's funny, most people I know think I have lost my mind for even thinking about walking away from everything and moving half way across the country.
lol maybe I have

My Grand is my "knock around mod". If the Grand gets beat up or scratched, I can always replace it with the same colors. I can't replace the individuality of the wood mods. I baby my woods :)

I even feel a bit guilty and worried when I sell one of them. But, I never feel that way about other mods.

We sure would like to see YOUR pics of them if you can? We have a thread where you can post pics of your Hogs at here:

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...3-hog-mod-family-photos-show-us-your-hog.html

BTW...which one did YOU get kazz????

Mine is #61 (Jotoba with Cocobolo caps and inlay) It's my first wood mod and I'm very pleased with it. Only issue I had was my batteries were too short. All of my 18650s are high drain and I had to dig up a magnet spacer before I could fire it up. But it's all good now!

I don't mind posting a photo, but where do you guys host your pictures? Is there a spot on ECF to upload to? Or, do you have your own spot where pics are stored and just link to them?

Oh wow..you got yours really fast then! That one is a beaut too, but then, they all are, lol. Many of us use a free hosting site such as photobucket. That's the one I use anyway and it works great. When you want to put a pic on your posting, all you have to do is hover over the photo you want in photobucket and a drop down list shows up, click on the bottom link and paste it to your posting....easy as pie ;)
