Hog's Mods

[coffm0]

Hello everyone and yes the measurement are posted a few pages back but I'm on my phone and it's a pain to find, hopefully someone can bring it forward. Didn't get a meter but my tester works ok so not stressing

 

[2mtech]

Hola 2mtech, Congratulations on your new trade...enjoy your Omega, I am sure you will. I heard good things about the Omega and the SB.
Take Care, Hola

Yeah, well...looks like I may have lost out on that trade too. Think I'm going to stay off the classies!

Edit: NVM...I just had to sweeten the deal a little

 

[coffm0]

So I have had an idea, anyone know of custom wood tube mods or ever tried to make one?

You mean like hollow out a broom handle or a tree limb? Apparently it's been tried with road apples and twinkies, so why not?

Wood be a challenge getting it wired...end caps wood be a trick too. Sure wood be unique though!

 

[BiancaMontgomery]

I hope it arrives too, they're great to have Bianca...they do come in handy.

Have a great day

It's here So...I decided to take a hit and guess the voltage...to see if I had any voltage guessing skills. I guessed it was set somewhere between 4.9 to 5.1v...and it was 5.1. I turned it down to 4.5v and loaded up some Twinkie. VV Hog and 6mls of Twinkie....yes please.

The Hogfather says:

They all vary in size just to keep you guessing Bwahaha!

Seriously though I do not have the best of tools in my garage, almost all my saws and routers and everything are Ryobi tools.
The base sizes for a 3.7v is 2"w x 3.5"t x 1"d
The base size for a VV is 2"w x 4.25"t x 1"d
Add .25" to height for catch cup
+ or - a hair on sizes due to sanding and stuff

I will have to slowly start upgrading my wood working tools.
As I have mentioned in the past I am not a wood worker by trade, that's why each batch has gotten a little better as I have gone along.
I am learning as I go here, but with the last batch that went out, I think I'm a fairly quick learner.

lol now if these were trailers or bbq smokers and I was using my welder/plasma cutter, that's where I shine =)

 

[my4jewels]

Thank you. So, I guess the VV would be the same size, BF or not.

 

[BiancaMontgomery]

Thank you. So, I guess the VV would be the same size, BF or not.

Well, same size as what? The shorter one? I guess it sure could be, the vv stuff would just go where the bottle would have been for a feeder. Send Mike a PM to confirm that though.

 

[my4jewels]

Just useless questions. I was trying to decide with feeder vs. nonfeeder. I'm going with feeder. Just posted thoughts that were running through my head. Thanks for digging up the thread.

So that's three "deals" in a row now that someone has folded on in as many days. Guess I've been lucky up til now dealing with people who honor what they say.

What are you trying to trade?

 

[trouble2k]

So Mike, when you find yourself with a few minutes extra time (Do you ever have any?) Could you make a list of the different combos of woods we're seeing here? I know you've answered a few of them, but what about the rest?

Oh also since it was raining Mon and I got home late yesterday and couldn't fire up the saws, I kept a little busy with finishes on the general sale ones.
Pay no attention to the purple and yellow one, Amy claimed that one as her own

[2mtech]

My REOs. All the hype about these things and all the talk about how badly people want them and everybody keeps bailing on trade deals. Screw it, maybe I'll take them to VaperCon for trading stock there

You know if I was trying to trade Hogs NOBODY would back out!

 

[trouble2k]

They're all sooo gorgeous! I love that Cocobolo for the caps and inlays.

 

[2mtech]

That black walnut has some niiiice figure!

 

[BiancaMontgomery]

Mike, this Canary wood is really beautiful. I'd never seen it before you offered it here for mods. I'm really enjoying having my VV made of it.

 

[trouble2k]

No kidding about that The one with the Lacewood inlays is so unique.
