These are feeler gauges. Some of them are very thin and easy to bend.

Hey Swpr- What made you decide on 3/32?

 

[strprswpr]

I just wanted to give it a try and it's working perfectly. The slotted ones are pretty big so I figured it would be wick better.....Especially if you use VG.

I played around with punching cartos today. I thought I'd try 2 x 1/32 with Boba's Bounty. Didn't work too well. I don't think I had it adequately loaded & burned it. Lesson learned.

1/32".......That's tiny...I wouldn't go any less than 1/16"

I was @ work & had 1/32 or 3/8 to choose from. 3/8 looked a little on the big side. I'm gonna pick up a suitable punch tomorrow.

You know, if you pucnh a light dimple in the carto, then use a 1/16" or 3/32" drill bit to drill just a little into the carto....but not all the way through. You could probably finish off the hole with a 1/16" or 3/32" punch....and you won't have any filings in the carto. What you'd be doing id thinning out the matal so the punch goes through easily without really deforming the carto. You get me?

What would be really nice is if Boge would pre-punch the carto's before assembly!!!!

 

[bp400]

yea buddy. fairly new to vaping and surely a noob with power tools... cant figure out how to use the sanding wheels with my rotary kit

 

[Big Fran]

Got you. I should mention the 2 x 1/32 worked fine with a carto properly loaded with Halo juice.

its my last one, I ruined a bunch and have some new cartos but cant figure out how to use my rotary set to make more. Total noob with the power tools. Tomorrow i'm gonna have my stepdad learn me or head to my nearest brick and mortar vendor E-cig-city cuz homie there helped me make some for free a few weeks ago

 

[bp400]

I thought I didnt like it either cuz it was burning on the 5v but with this LR its a nice mellow vape. But hey, if you dont like butterscotch u don't like it.

BP,

It's really easy, if your going for just a punched out type of hole in the side of the carto the best way is to just make a simple Jig for depth of drill, so everyone is exactly the same. If your looking to score the side of a carto you can do that by hand or put the carto in something so it can't move like a vice or best of all make another jig for depth of cut so everyone of your scores is exactly the same. These jigs you make could be done with a simple 2 X 4 piece of wood, or a piece of metal
