Imeo's distribution setup

[imeothanasis]

Yes, I mention it but priorities change all the time Gredie. Now I am making Stealths because first run was only 90. Then I have to make multiatty. When Iatty will finish, the VV electronic part will be ready so I have to make the hardware for it.

Oh, I forgot to say that new Stealths will have steel connector and steel venting cap. I finally manage to make those parts from steel. I will also make more venting caps so GGTS users can change their cap if they want!

Nice info Imeo SS cap and bottom would be kinda neat for those that want them. <3 Brass myself

 

[gredie]

Thank you, Imeo. I guess ssGGSlim will be made 2012 then.

 

[imeothanasis]

It was a very dificult situation but I did it fright. It took me too long to find a way to do that but if you try you make things happen!

 

[imeothanasis]

Thank you, Imeo. I guess ssGGSlim will be made 2012 then.

For sure gredie

So if have something to wait for

I can imagine that making connector and venting caps in ss is difficult to realize. Looking forward to see them.

I know it has been stated that that is the rule. However is the 801 cap actually discontinued or just hasn't been produced in a while. Given how new (relatively speaking) the GGTS and E-Cigs in general are the difference between the two can be a fine line.

Either way I wish you luck on getting your hands on an 801 top cap.

Ay yi yi you almost gave me a heart attack over the 801 cap fright. Was going to chase off after 2 more till I continued to read.

WOW! i wonder if that will be available soon

 

[ChaosAffect]

Wonder if I'll be able to trade my Brass cap for a SS one...

 

[RippleInStillWater]

Damn, I thought I was done buying accoutrements!!!!

 

[gredie]

The Stealth is really nice in 100% ss. Will this tempting with new stuff never end?

 

[imeothanasis]

Guys, I already have some problems with those steel connectors. Machine said that it can be done but they doesnt seem they can manage this easily. I will keep you updated

 

[fright88]

Doh!!! Please do. I was just starting to like the look too lol

 

[zuTma]

There's no pressure Imeo

 

[inquisitorj]

I definitely want a SS Stealth cap and bottom cap! HOT!!!

The Brass is beautiful, but I am a huge fan of the all silver. I got the nickle plated bottom cap for my SS GGTS and the SS mouthpiece for my UFS and AVS so I can have all silver on any of my setups. SS will be even better!

Imeo, are they machining problems? Stainless is "gummy" to machine because of the chromium. Can you get 303 or 416 stainless readily in Greece? What we do when machining high tech Stainless is to harden it a bit, a quick quench will do it, it then behave more like carbon steel. Also, have you tried CBN (Cubic boron nitrate) tool bits? They cut through anything very nicely. I can send you a nice piece of 303 directly from my supplier if you want to try.

 

[zuTma]

I think he does use 303

 

[Torqueguy]

I think he does use 303

Stainless is beautiful but a real pain to machine. It's like cutting rubber. Maybe a quick quench might get the hardness up a bit

Problems doesnt come from the material exactly but from my designs Torq. The problem to the front cap is the channel it has that meets the venting holes. Too much material comes inside this channel while tool is cutting and the tool cant cut the rest of the piece in the right way. As for the cap, the problem is the channels again, especially the channel under the cap. Its too deep for the thin and short tools we use to make it right and sometimes the tool cant go deep enough and "eats" the face of the cup.
The machine shop always complains about my designs. They say that they are too complicated. They ask me why I dont make something simple. But simple cant give me the freedom to do exactly what I want to do.
