Say Calve, what's the latest on Big Bob (or was it Bob's Big One)?
I'm confused
Oh lol. A brother put the pieces back together for me when I was otr. It's as good as new. Am trying to work my way back to pick it up. Going to be in Clearwater fla for a few weeks and had intended to ride it down. Just going to have to dodge the snow on the way down. I'll put some pics up of it when I get to it again.
I believe you mean "Fat Bob" Bronze.Say Calve, what's the latest on Big Bob (or was it Bob's Big One)?
Looking sweet, Calve!Retic, it doesn't matter what topper I put on it, they all look good. I haven't been keeping up with JD Tech, but this switch is butter smooth. Probably won't be after I take it apart to see what they did lol, but it is nice.

RJ and Calve you do have quite a nice collection going. Highs in the 20's todaybut the sun is shining so it will look warmer outside through the window.
I love it when Calve is home!Our mod collection...(minus the Erlk on its way and another mod to put it on...gotta go shopping...

It's a different design from the regular Stingray switch , if you take a plain lead pencil and coat the bearing surfaces , ie the post the rice pin sits in and the inside of the ring that sits around it with graphite from the pencil before you put it back together it'll be slicker than snot .Retic, it doesn't matter what topper I put on it, they all look good.

Got my second Infinite Rose in today , built with 8 wraps Gplat 24ga 2.4mm id coming in at .36 ohms and wicked with rayon . Filled with 100%VG Legend @ 24mg . Two hits and I've got the hiccups from the nic hit . Flavor is off the charts though .
It's round and very easy to work with , no where near as springy as Kanthal . It heats up quickly as well , this 24ga performs more like 30ga Kanthal than 24ga .Is the Gplat round like welding wire or is it reformed?

I remember getting curious about the Rose some time ago, and thought it was too expensive. Now that I have the Estia and Erlkönigin, I may have to rethink that. I am primarily a dripper/bf'er, but tanks do have their place in my rotations. Besides, I'm either going to PIF or sell 2 of my three KFs that are just collecting dust these days.
Man, I love/hate riding the wave of new technology. (I paid more than $5000 for my first CD-ROM burner and it was already 2X speed).
ETA: And that gplat sounds like fun stuff.
