I just ordered some of those Marc411 (the 2.0mm). Thanks for the link.

I did find this on e-bay. 10 12g(2mm) for 2 bucks with free shipping, cheap enough. Thanks to Marc for pointing this thread out. Filling the Magma has always been a pain. looks like this is a easy fix. Maybe a nose ring with the extra my son would get a kick out of that.

I understand the 2 mm spec for piercing needles is internal diameter. I am hoping 12 gauge is a standard because I ordered the luer lock blunts Oct 27 but I can't see if they'll work, slow boat from China lol!

Something I just learned this past weekend: Want an awesome flavor atty that doesn't leak, takes almost as much juice as the Magma and doesn't get as hot? One word. HOBO.

24g Kanthal. 3 wraps, approximate 2mm id, .18Ω, wicked with rayon and wet .20Ω.

I am tilted towards one, can you tell me if the afc will close down enough for simple mouth puffing?

I am a lung hitter and this atty has a more open draw than the Magma but is fully adjustable. I don't see why one couldn't close it off enough to do mouth to lung pulls.

Well I just found out the 12 ga luer lock needles are way to big. They'll be good for measuring juice but now I have to wait for piercing needles. 12 ga is not 12 ga lol, oh crapola

Got it done and they fit pretty easy with no resistance until they reach the horizontal hole. I cut mine 6 mm which leaves ~1.5 mm above the deck.

Greeting to all,

Today, I had modded air channels in my beloved Magma 1:1 Clone from Fasttech.

I found a 12G (2.0mm) piercing needle on eBay and sawed off a tube(s) by using triangular File tool. It was easy and now I'm enjoying one of the best drippers without any leaks

The stock air holes were large enough to house 12 Gauge (2.0mm) hypodermic needles, but I enlarged mines to install 10 Gauge (2.45mm) needles. But your idea is great. Спасибо за идею. Больше не сопливит..

What are you guys using to cut the needles?

 

[AMDTrucking]

What are you guys using to cut the needles?

Dremel's cut-off wheel, like butter.

That was my plan, thanks

And these are the needles:
10, 12, 14 Gauge needles

If you don't want to drill those holes, then use 12 Gauge needles. They fit perfectly snug.
