Missing the boat

[VpnDrgn]

Salutations Y'all,
I am fairly new to vaping but have been checking out ECF for a couple of weeks now. ( that don't make me a lurker does it?)
In regards to my own desires for accessories I have noticed a trend here on ECF. Whenever anyone asks "what is a good solution for carrying my ecigs at work or whats a good way to organize my supplies?" most people inevitably reply "dart case or clipper case or eyeglass case or etc. etc.". What about all the people on this site who have the skill to make stuff that actually looks like a finished product ?For example - the other day someone suggested a cigar case and I thought that's a great idea but you would have to pad it for the skinny e-cigs and it is still a rather bulky case.BUT! What if someone who had the equipment already made a skinnier version that could hold a couple assembled e-cigs and some extra carts? It's a fairly simple design, one sleeve with a few slots in it and one sleeve to slide over the end for a cap. Make this out of aluminum and I would gladly pay $20 or more for it, especially if you hooked up with someone who could engrave a design on it.( I saw someone the other day mention they were getting a laser engraver ) This is just one of the many ideas I have as a nubie, unfortunately I have absolutely no skill or I would be following my own advice.

Anyways, thanks for letting me rant. vape On

If you find someone to make this out of aluminum and leather for $20, let me know! As you can see, even duct tape is slightly beyond my skill level

I wish someone could make a box of some kind for the coffee table. My mom had a cigarette box for the coffee table so I stood that up and keep my oiler bottles full of juice in it. I mix juice alot and have so many bottles of different flavors all over. I like to switch flavors alot so something for the coffee table would be awesome. As far as a carrying case my mom had a cig case that I thought would be perfect. I found one on ebay Black Leather Cigarette Case. Snap & Zipper Pouch. 100s - eBay (item 250668840895 end time Jul-25-10 16:50:40 PDT)
It unzips all the way when unfolded and is 10" long unfolded

I got one of those as soon as I saw it. It holds a lot of stuff, but definitely too large to carry in a pocket.

That's what I mean. I use a cigarette case, but I've got to find some foam so that the e-cig and cartos don't roll all over the place. ( and of course try not to make the foam look like a buck tooth beaver went at it )

I suggest reinforcing a normal cigarette hard pack case if you have one. Check what cases a local cigar store might have, they are not all giant cigar cases. Look in the collectible card section at wallymart or a hobby game store and they should have hard plastic card cases, but most are thicker than a pack of cigarettes, but not by much. Around easter I have found metal cases about the same size at walgreens with cartoon characters on them.

I actually use a mini-altoids case to store a few cartridges w/caps, drip tips, adapter, and push-pin. I glued in a piece of felt to cut down on rattling noise. My mod will not fit in it but my mod battery is large enough that I do not need a spare. I usually pre-fill the carts or else I would use a bigger case that could hold liquid bottles. Since long tweezers will not fit in the case, the push-pin works just fine for pulling out the filter of a cart. The extra drip tips allow others to sample my ecig without sharing mouthpieces.

Hm... I am actually a seamstress by trade, So I make a lot of bags (big and small) and clothes.. Pretty much anything that can be handmade using all sorts of materials including leather. Now I need to go figure out now to make myself the best carry-case ever!

Next time you're in Best Buy take a look at their Lowepro GPS cases. They're not cheap but you can fit a lot of ecig stuff in them and they're very well made. They're prolly too big for a pocket but will fit nicely in a big purse or backpack.

Hello Ace,
Go to Johnson Creek Smoke Juice and check out there leather cig case. It's not bad, real leather would have been better and I wouldn't recommend for manual batts ( a review mentioned slit for button but mine didn't have one )3 slots would have been much better. Isn't there a way to form and stiffen leather? Would have made this much better.

I'll send you mine if you want ( of course I'll want a deal on your first model ), as I said I use manuals and I wouldn't fell comfortable using this. I 'd always be wondering if the button was getting pressed in the sleeve.

pm me if interested, Vape On

I can so relate!
But in being serious I just today received the most awesome handmade one from a member yet! I think she may actually start making them, and have a link on a suppliers site soon. I just don't want to speak on her behalf, but I'm going to contact her right now and tell her about this thread.
