JonboyUSMC's Lava Tanks

[9ball_AJ]

I did watch that video but what am I missing? Its gotta be user error. not blaming the equipment.

What type of cartos are you using? Boge? Smoktech? Other? The Boge's seem to have thicker polyfill, but I prefer this as it is more difficult to flood the carto. I personally punch 4 holes, 2 high and 2 low, and this seems to work very well with any juice I have tried. The size of holes matter too, you have to experiment to find out what works best for you.

Also, what type of carto punch are you using?

Tigerlily that is pretty...now you just need to Bedazzle it up

I can't wait to see pics! I'm curious about how that color compares to the one I got since they have similar characteristics.

I have to say though, I am thoroughly impressed with my B2 that arrived today. As much as I love all the lava tanks, this has to be the most beautiful ever made, imo, lol. It is NOT the color of my car, btw. I thought it might be based on the picture posted of it during the sale. Instead it is a much richer color. It has a metallic sheen to it. When I first saw it, I thought antique brass. When I took it outside it appeared to be more of a copper color. In bright light it appears to be more golden. I'll let you decide what color you think it is.

I find I need to add a second punch for all juices. Then I make both holes slightly larger

thanks for the responses and things to try with. This is a great community for sure. You guys are so quick to help out and respond! The carto Im using with it right now is the one that came with it. I pulled it out, loaded it and put it back in. I have an order of cartos in the mail on its way to me but I still to have one other carto left that is a boge 2.0 that I can throw in there to test it out and I will double punch it! Ill let you know how that works out and report back! Thanks again for all the help.

Did you watch this?

thanks strprswpr! this was helpful. i've had quite a battle with the last boge I put in my JB. haven't been punching cartos for very long and the last one I did, I could only get through the bottom cap by pushing it through the top because of the bubble that formed on the sides of the holes. and I had to use a wrench to get it on. well, once I would get it over the holes, the carto would pop back out the other end because of the force I had to use. over and over again I tried to get the carto into the cap. it took about a half hour and I was a complete wreck by the time I finished. then last night, I had to refill it. when I put the top cap on, I pushed it on by forcing it down on the tank while it was standing. this made the carto pop through the bottom of the cap and I lost half the tank of Boba's. then had to repeat the whole drama again to get the carto back in the tank!

I'm using a siam carto puncher. so making the holes is a little different, but atleast now I have a good idea to fix the warp between the holes!
