fasttech V5 Flamed and modded for BF. The drip tip that came with it was junk, chrome plated brass.....I think, the shiney coating was flaking off. But what do you expect for $6 bucks. I drilled the air hole to 1/16 and cut a trench in the center post for juice flow. I would of cut the center post insulator instead of the center post but I couldn't get it out. This is going on a Reo Grand I just grabbed from the Classys, I am pretty excited, I have been wanting a Reo for awhile.

I thought that was a mandatory requirement of owning a Reo? I heard that if you don't immediately post frequent and copious pics of your Reo, they would send the "Duty Car" around to pick you up:)

:laugh: Only with the first one....we let you slide on the rest. ;) Besides, I'm not sure the AC is working in the Duty Car and it's just too hot to drive without it. :glare:

At the shore...
So c'mon and stop your cryin' Cause we both know money burns (My Machelle G&R) has been running through my head lately. I'm hopping the rectangular shape of the Reo will confuse my Wife and she won't immediately recognize it as a new mod.:evil: Thanks for all the Welcomes!

"Oh, this old fill in the blank...bracelet, dress, shoes, handbag. I've had it forever." Sounds like you're learning someone's tricks. ;)

Bro, I am perhaps the king of having to hide new REOs from my wife.

My guess is that she'll dig ya that much more when she's the only one handling things that are penis shaped :)

That was a great tune bro. The whole cassette kicked ... back when it was fresh. With those auto reverse decks, that tape got played all night. I like the end part of my Michelle when it transitions alot. I don't do classic but your sure making me wanna create a pandora station called my Michelle.

Now get ready to dance with mr brownstone :)

Yup My Machelle and Mr. Brownstone were my two faves. And apatite had fantastic album art. Things kids today with their ipods will never know.
My wife calls my provari "Pete" short for "Peter" because her first words upon seeing it was "Oh My God! it looks like R2D2s D!(k"

Exactly. Talking about those songs brings back many memories, not only of just how good that GNR album was in its day, but how crazy yet simple life was then. The only two things to worry about were working and partying :)

R2D2 - Ha! More like Optimus Prime's.

Yup, thought of it and have an adapter, I think it's a bit over 16mm

I thought it cleaned up nice, it vaped really well before the BF mod, i think the pic just makes the bottom look rough, the bottom of the post is polished, I lapped it flat on a fine stone, maybe just how the light reflected off of it? dunno. Spent a ....-load on vaping crap in the past few days, so either this or my killer will have to make do till next payday.
