just thought i'd share, but for those of you that have trouble punching cartos (yes, that's me) i bought this cool contraption made by dyingbreed over at vipvaporcigs... screw to the left adjusts the length where you want to punch it, screw on top to punch it and a little window to show you clearly where to punch it. the body is made of metal and the screws are made of something else that isn't 'supposed' to dull quickly over time... makes perfect holes every time without denting the carto! it's a little pricey at $40, but i think it's worth it (and yes i did buy the saddle valve thing which is now going back).

Now that looks sweet! I just ordered one. Yes $45.00 with shipping is steep but I just love a well designed product!

I just punched my first one with a hammer and nail. So far so good. Punched the hole a little low, so I made two. Also, I stuck a small finishing nail up the tube to keep from damaging it as Jon suggested.

Working like a charm! I just wanted to do it before the carto Jon sent with it died. So I have his for backup.

Thanks all for your help!!

Hey all,
Sorry if you find my question here offensive or rude ( not my intention), I did post in the wtb section with no luck so far.
Any chance one of you who got more then 2 is willing to sell me one, my frosted Lave got stolen along with one of my silver bullets and i am really lost without it, I'm sure you understand why.
If not I'll understand.
