So, hi!
I'm into vaping for a few years now, went through various obligatory hardware stages and few days ago I reached the next level by making my first mod. It's DNA20 powered by a single 18650. It's quite small although it could be even smaller if I wasn't so stubborn when it comes to fire button. Since I'm one of these people who always burn the coils while keeping cig in trousers, I wanted the button to be "idiot-proof" and those are unfortunately quite big (in iceberg way - there's a lot of it underneath the surface). Anyway, I picked 3D printing as my weapon of choice for various reasons and designed the whole thing.
Usually when making things that are completely new to I tend to break stuff a lot and in this case it was quite an expensive playground for me. Major and most annoying bummer was breaking the screen connection and than increasing frustration made my hands shaky and I broke the screen too (not that it mattered at this point). Minor mistakes were made in box design, mostly because it was a new material and technology for me. Few tolerances mistakes were quickly fixed with a Dremel. I should have thought a little more about cable placement but I wasn't really a big deal, mostly aesthetic nature.
Despite if all the things above I'm a proud father of my own new mod and rich in experience, I'm ready to consider having next lovechild.
