Hey everyone!
I just ordered my first drip tip and it won't be here for about a week, but suddenly I'm finding things around the house that can be used as drip tips. I have a sheesha (hookah) and the plastic sanitary tips that come with it fit my 510 atty perfectly, and today I took the top of a small baster and cut the tip off the rubber bulb and it also works great!!!

So has anyone else McGyvered a drip tip, any tips or ideas for me :)

    Nice finds! I grabbed a rubber grip from the end of a pen. Fit perfect. Then I switched to the sanitery tips sold by some suppliers here. Where did you get your sani-tips??

    pens like these- the black rubber part:

    Or these disposables:
    Disposables - Penny 's Store

    I've just stuck w/ the sani-tips and condom fill from from the top of the carto w/ cap on.

    Are you using the inside or outside ones??

    Fall down easy to drip into. Just wish I had one in stainless.

    My first PV was an original rough stack I traded an old cowboy a lariat for. It came with a battery, some really bad juice, a couple of attys on their last legs, and a hand carved wooden drip tip. - That tip fit my next ten attys better than any of the derlin or chromed tips I bought. - It eventually wore out, but no faster than a derlin one.

    When I first started vaping I used these exact same pen parts as a drip tip!! LOL worked great!!!!

    The sanitary tips came with some vanilla sheesha tobacco that I bought a while back! Pens, hmm, good idea I'll keep my eyes open for dead pens that can be converted! I got my drip tip (one that fits inside the atty) but if I can find other tips that I like I'm putting it in my vaping box. It's a tiny drip tip so it doesn't hurt to have back ups incase I lose it :)

    Nice! Maybe you can rig up a bagpipe PV so you can vape and play at the same time ;)
    I'm originally from Nova Scotia so I love the pipes too! Wearing a kilt at the same time is also a bonus, haha!!!

    Once you come to terms with the cross-dressing aspect, kilts are freakishly comfortable.
