In all seriousness I expected more red than pink, but I am not complaining. This is tank #2 for me, and I am super fortunate in that regard. I will likely put this up for trade at some point, but not immediately. I will appreciate it's beauty and enjoy it's superb function for a while first.

Besides, I am coming home from Chicago with a Damascus tank at the end of the month!! :p

quick ! I think a good carto punch just listed in the classifieds for 22

Thanks for the heads up. I sent a PM on this. I almost pulled the trigger on the VIP punch earlier today, but refrained. $22 plus shipping is a pretty good deal.

I've been getting the same thing with Boge's - some are super, some are duds! My smoketech's, although all xl size, fill better, last longer and seem more reliable. Also, my Volt cartos which I convert to 510 also seem better. Boge's are great, but it does seem like quality control is slipping on em.

is that the vk ones? i've had a few recently( i don't think i'm using my vk ones yet though), and was just chaulking it up to my punched holes being to small:blink:

That is TOOOO strange...

Today, I replaced a boge in one of my Mom & Pop tanks, and it tasted burnt. Tossed it, tried another... same thing.

I then tried to punch larger holes with my COV Carto Punch, and that one was fine. However, I really don't know if the carto was bad, or if I just didn't punch a large enough hole, and burned the fill. After the fill gets burned, I think that burnt taste stays in it.

I was attributing it to user error, even though in the past, I would simply punch a hole through the Boge until I heard it pop, and that would be it. It always filled the carto fine in the past.

Now... I don't know if there are simply bad cartos in the batch, or if it really was user error.

Purchased 'em from Crystal Clear Vaping. Anyone else purchase from there? How have your Boges been?

(Sheesh. Two years ago, never would have believed I'd be asking anyone how their boges are!)

Shel, your Avi is killing me...I just love that tank!! :laugh: LOL!!!!

Thanks!

In daylight, it's really magnificent!

Really loving JonBoy's tanks! You know how, some things, you want it, and want it, and when you finally get it, a day or two later, you're wondering why you wanted it so bad?

Other things, for whatever reason, you continue to appreciate long after the initial infatuation is over.

That's the Lava Tanks! They really are not only beautiful, but they work so well, and just have a great feel to them when you're vaping with one!

Hope everyone has a great weekend, and stays (or gets) healthy. Most important thing, our health! :)

OK... I KNOW I'm going to regret asking this, but...

what's a Damascus tank?!? and why do I feel my credit card, calling my name.....

This is the Damascus steel that Jon is going to make hopefully more than one tank out of:
