Holder for cartridges while refilling them????

[Lauralie]

Has any thought of something good to hold cartridges while refilling them? Right now I use a box I poked holes in but I would like something a little more presentable. My husbands foam that holds rifle shells would be perfect but he won't let lose of any. Anyone know where to buy just the holders without the shells? Or any better ideas?

Better idea is probably to use cartomizers, lol. Other than that, no ideas.

Some of the ammo cartridge holders reloaders use might work.

Cheers,

Large buff puffs for make up work well.

Try at the gun shops. I've heard some shops keep the empty shell boxes laying around, they may have the foam as well. You could also get foam at craft shops.

2X4 and a drill = instant cart holder

The tool section of home centers has bit holders that might work

Get a block of nice hardwood, and drill a row of holes in it using a drill press. Then varnish the wood.

Maybe a local shop can do it for you.

This is what I've been planning to do for on my desk to keep my carto's organized and labelled by flavor

Three or four weeks ago, I drilled 26 holes into a scrap piece of wood (12" x 2 3/4" x 5/8") I found in my shed using a wood drill bit. Didn't take long, and it has come in real handy to store cartomizers after I refill them. I haven't gotten around to painting, staining, or varnishing it yet, but maybe some day. Just added that pic back to my avatar temporarily.

Thanks everyone! Great ideas

My .40S&W ammo holders make perfect 50 unit holders...LOL. Some are hard foam, some plastic. Hit up your local gun range some afternoon and get one for free. 9mm/.380/.40 are all close.

I can't tell you how awesome this idea is. I am new to vaping so I haven't really acquired enough supplies to need a "holder" yet. But, I do have several boxes of .40 ammo. I just pulled out one of my Federal hollow point 20 round cases and my KR8 cartos fit perfectly into the square holes with the condoms still on. They slide in with just enough resistance to prevent them from falling out and still pull out easily.

Good call JonnyVapΣ

I added a quick pic of a menthol carto in the case for anyone that might want to know what size case I was talking about. As mentioned before, you do not need to own a gun or ammo to do this. You can stop by your local gun range or shop and ask them for an empty ammo case like this. The trash cans at the range are always FULL of these.

Unfortunately I don't have a 40 cal gun, but I do have a few boxes of 30/30 ammo laying around I could convert. Would that hold a eGo 510 cart or is it too small/big?

 

[JonnyVapΣ]

30/30 cartridge diameter at the base is fractions larger than a .40cal. (.422in). Should be fine.
Again, just hit up a range and dumpster dive for free goodies.

Looks like I'm not the only one who uses ammo reloading supplies for carts. So many original ideas that other people have thought of first. As for making it more presentable, I put it all in an unused humidor. Seems I've got no use for burning anything around here any more. I never thought I'd give up cigars along with my smokes but vaping is so much better.

 

[WomanOfHeart]

Looks like I need to make a trip to the local gun shops and firing ranges. We don't own any guns (yet...we keep talking about it.) so maybe they have some empty ammo boxes we can have!

 

[RedForeman]

Go to a gun range late on a Saturday. The trash cans near the firing line will be packed full of them. Bring your own safety glasses and hearing protection and you can probably walk right in there and get what you want without renting a lane unless you just need some practice

As funny as it sounds, I work for a Toy mfg, I used a can of playdoh and made my "custom" cart filling station....seriously, it worked pretty good. It is pretty small and holds up to 8 carts.

Only took overnight to harden up. I just wrapped up the carts in some saran wrap, punched them in, spun them around to add a tiny bit of room....

All the ideas are amazing! Playdoh - AWESOME
