All around the house.

...well i decided to polish and clean up the gg which i got a day or so ago...
i put it in the sonic cleaner, used brasso and then after some car polish wax... not as shiny as i want... but...
the patina isn't happening as fast as when i first received it and i've used it for most of the day...
it's the wax coating that's slowing down oxidation.
personally i don't think brasso is that good a polish... and i've nothing that special to work with other than microfiber cloth.
in any case... once this starts to patina again... i will leave it for a few weeks and enjoy.
btw: the engraving is rather deep which certainly is a plus!
Hey It, I dont know if they have Walmart's in your country or a similar store, but I suggest something like this. Plano Elite Guide series
Around 45.00 USD - Holds a ton of stuff. Top opens up too to hold alot more stuff

I stopped using Brasso because of how gritty it is. I mostly use Flitz now. Works great and is far less gritty for softer metals.
Brasso - HORRORS
Flitz liquid - good
Simichrome - RW used this before Sharkhide - said it worked well
Sharkhide metal polish - best of all IMO - if they ever start shipping outside of USA - it makes Brass and Aluminum SCREAM, least amt of abrasives it.
Para recommended it to me and UKTarget a few months before I bought some (expensive). - my GG's never looked as good before I started using it around May 2012
I see a few people taking credit for recommending sharkhide on diff forums - PARA did it first - just saying.

Yes, Brasso is a no no for devices we care about. There is definitely an abrasive medium in Brasso.

Thanks a lot dspin,
Thats give good direction becouse there many designes to choose from.
We have here places similar to wallmart in concept but of others firms.
I wasn't sure what designe to
Choose from (wall mount or desk base or somthing like this that you can place and take in house
Where ever you like,this one look cool,and there are close designe from known firm to choose.
I use somthing like this with bigger compartment for my power tools but for the vaping stuff,
We do need those many little drawers.
This one look well setup for the challenge
I have used Flitz in the tube form for many years. If you have deep scratches let the the rag get very dark. For less abrasion move to clean part of rag often.
Hi guys my names Craig and i'm from the UK, I am finally able to post in the gg threads woo hoo, I have just ordered a just gg from e-smokeguru, and can not wait finally my ithaka will have its throne
They will be available on e-smokeguru on Monday or Tuesday Frank. I will also send to Bruce and Gino spares soon. But only Gino in Italy will have brass parts this time
no aal.
About brass, I was thinking of what kind of brass you want me to make. I have a thought and I will open a thread about this issue, so we can both deside witch is the best solution.

Hey again,
So I got the fresh batteries; the red IMR 18650, 3.7v, 2000mah. First charged in an xtar until light goes green. Wind up a fresh 1.0 ohm ithaka with kanthal NR/LR wire from stormy cellar; I use two wires and wind them together, run the twisted wires down ONE channel (this could be my mistake) on each side of the ithaka. Fires like a champion for an hour or so and them ... Dead. Is this a battery issues? Atomizer? Coil killed battery? I feel stupid

If it was a short, it wouldn't fire at all. Most likely a battery starting to go bad. With a 1.2ohm coil, I can usually get about 4 hours on the same rated 18340. I got tired of changing them out, so I only use 18490. Run two mods with two Ithakas with both running the same coil and go all day on just 2 batteries.
One point to note, when you wrap your coils, make sure the joined sections partially touch the wick. That's just to make sure every part of the coil is being used.

Now I just need to find a way to get my hands on a Just GG. No one has anything in stock, any suggestions?

idk I don't see how the battery would die that fast. Did you check all the connections. Are you sure one end of the wire did not come loose and loose connection...
