Good lord....the paranoia is real up in here. These aren't nuclear weapons folks. "Pick up your face 3 blocks away"? C'mon. You should wear armor when you make toast.
I was running a 1.6-1.8Ω build on that setup, It was my first foray beyond EGO type battery setups, and worked great back then. I have moved on since those days, just showed the pic as a reference to where things used to be for some folks...it Ain't rocket science, but you should be smart about what you're playing with.
Right. Thanks guys. @Bad Ninja You seem to know ecigs well. I am currently trying to use the net and learn about basic circuitry and electronics. Where would I find an introduction to basic circuitry, mod & atty building? Thanks a lot to anybody who can help. I'm stupid atm but want to learn. Thanks
I would start by visiting the modding forum right here on ECF.
Lots of relative information.
This is a fledgling industry, so you'll need to apply the knowledge to vaping gear.
Candle power forums has a ton of excellent battery information, and custom flashlight applications.
Look at the gear. It's not hard to see how a simple dripper works.
Even with all the lathes we have in our shop and years of working on them I would be hesitant about trying to crank out an RDA.
Not to mention the material and time spent making it would be far most costly than stocking up on one's you can buy at the present time.

Let's not confuse the obvious.
There is a huge difference between making an RDA for production and sale, and making a home made atty for personal use.
It's not new.
It's been done before.
And don't take this the wrong way but of a simple RDA confuses a "machinist", they may want to rethink their career choices.
I'm not a "machinist".
I did however, own a manufacturing company that made suspension parts for high performance automotive applications.
Back to reality:
Copper and brass are soft metals and can be threaded with a tap and die set from harbor freight.
Yes, that's beyond many peoples skill set, but apparently, so is using a simple Mechanical safely.
Very good point, and yes it got me no offense taken. My mind went immediately to a solid block of a high quality SS and how to replicate something like what I am vaping on right now. So with my mindset being what it is the cost/time factor weighed out the usefulness of anything I could vape off of.
Metal tubes, plugs, caps, springs are already available for pennies.
Drill, thread and solder.
No lathes needed.
No need to reinvent the wheel.

I hate to go off on a tangent, but I think we need to get away from the idea that degrees are what matters. Speaking as someone WITH "degrees", the only thing a degree proves is that you have the fortitude to see something through to completion....It does not prove aptitude. Probably my favorite quote of all time is, "Professionals built the Titanic, Amateurs built the Arc." Degrees show that you have had the class...knowledge and craftsmanship show that you understand it...and that knowledge can be gained from numerous sources.
A College degree means nothing.
GWB has a multi million dollar degree from Yale and can't pronounce the word "Nuclear".
