Mock up for a Chuck? Please...

[bogeyjim]

Awesome! Thank you Mike!!

Man, now I dont know if I should get Large Chuck, or Little Chuck...??

Any ideas, Im leaning toward little chuck for more portability, is the little chuck much more portable then his big brother??

Im definitely ordering tonight!

Once again, THANK YOU Mike!

 

[MastiffMike]

LOL, I don't own a Chuck nor have I ever seen one in person so I'm the WRONG guy to ask! I'm sure someone who owns both can chime in on the size differences though.

Bueller???

Bueller???

Well you can't do 6v on the little chuck.

So, does size matter? haha

It's up to you if you don't care about 6v.

I wanted the little bur didn't get it. I wanted it for the portability because with the reg chuck I couldn't imagine where I was gonna carry it! I don't carry a purse and my back pockets are already filled with a phone and a wallet. Hrmm.. And front pockets don't do well with a switch.

Umm, But the little one would be the same problem with me but at least I could put it in my back pocket without it sticking out. But then again, switch might get pushed. Woe is me.

I see your pickle, it was mine too but the 6v option sold me.

Oh and I haven't got my chuck yet so... I'm just going by pictures and measurements

 

[MastiffMike]

BTW Jim, that wrap is sized for the little Chuck, so if you do decide on the larger one let me know so I can get it updated prior to sending in.

 

[bogeyjim]

Mike and beecee, thanks for the input, I think Im gonna go with the little chuck just for portability reasons. but then again, it might be nice just to vape at the house and have the option to go 6 volt... Ugh, decisions decisions. Im gonna take it golfing with me and need it to fit into my pocket! But 6 volts might be cool!

I was all ready to order, went to the site and everything, then started looking at large chuck!

I love that design so much I just want to make sure I get the right size I want now....

Little chuck is winning but I still need to think about the larger one

I'll decide before the night is over though!

also keep in mind that with the big chuck .. at 3.7v .. 2/3 day on same battery !! I believe with little chuck it's just a day .... which is really good, but ............

Mike,
If it's not against forum rules, I think you should charge a couple of dollars for your mock ups. It's very little to help people know they're not making a mistake on an $80 purchase and, just based on the number you have done in the couple of weeks since I've been hanging out here, you'd be halfway to having your Chuck by now.

I'm more than willing to get the ball rolling if you have a PayPal account.

(And it's been a week since I ordered my Amazon gift certificate. If it isn't here tomorrow you might all hear me scream. I'm in NY and I'm pretty sure I'll scream loud enough for WaffleStomper to hear it in Nevada.)

 

[Kellyinbr]

Mike, I would gladly pay for the mock ups you have done for me!!

 

[bogeyjim]

Thats actually a good idea! Mike, your work is great man!

Little chuck or large chuck.... Help me decide guys!!

 

[Kellyinbr]

Little chuck or large chuck.... Help me decide guys!!

I ordered 3 lil chucks...I will eventually get a big one but I like the size of the lil one and 6v doesn't appeal to me but I want a big one just to have one

 

[Ladycats]

Thats actually a good idea! Mike, your work is great man!

Little chuck or large chuck.... Help me decide guys!!

I ordered the Big Chuck + adapter set ... I like options ... alll the options

 

[bogeyjim]

Yea the options are nice to have, but I think I am gonna take portability over options....

Who am I kidding, I'll probably order the big one after I get my little one anyways

OK, I think portability wins!

Time to order a chuck!!!!

 

[bogeyjim]

Is the 16340 battery and CR123 the same thing?

 

[DC2]

Mike, I would gladly pay for the mock ups you have done for me!!

I was going to say this as well.

If I ever needed another Chuck, I would pay $10 for your design work and mockups. I especially like the effort you put into eliminating, or at least dealing with in a creative way, the seams on a full wrap. For me, spending another $10 to get something I know ahead of time will be awesome is well worth it.

 

[thewomenfolk]

Doesn't a 'full wrap' mean you have a seam at the back, or am I wrong on this?

 

[bogeyjim]

Just ordered my Chuck!!! Thanks a lot everyone, especially 420 and Mike!!

Time to stalk the Pr0n threads for the next 3 weeks!!

Damn I havent been this excited in a LOOOONG time!

You can disguise the seam sometimes. If you look at the Beatles one Jim just did, he added a touch of the yellow from one side to the bottom of the other. That way there's not an abrupt line. On another, he split a word lengthwise so the seam would be disguised by the word.

Mine will have a seam because of the design but there's so much going on, I don't mind.

 

[MastiffMike]

LOL, thanks all for the compliments!

I'm pretty happy with my latest ones, much better than some of my older ones

IMHO, the Hello Kitty, Crystal Roses, tank Girl, Trailblazers, Spike, Drozd, ???, etc. turned out better than the first ones I did.

Seems my latest batch are MUCH better than my older ones. I must be getting the hang of it. Course not everyone is happy with my work, sometimes they CRY! 8-o

As far as charging, I'm pretty sure that'd be a no-no and against forum rules (the whole Supplier/manufacturer crud). Besides, it feel to much like a handout and I'm not willing to accept handouts (though other mock'ers might and there's nothing wrong with it, it's just not for me).

Hopefully the economy will eventually turn around and I'll be a Chucklehead! Till then, I'll live vicariously through you guys!

As Poeia mentioned, yes there is a seam but it can be visually minimized with propper planning. During the design phase the button locations relationship with the graphic also needs to be considered so that it "blends" as well as possible.

A good design should look good with, not inspite of, the Chucks shape.

If you look at older Chucks the mostly (though not all) were spot decals and IMHO look less polished than a full wrap. Lately, a lot more full wraps are being done and they almost always look more finished. Of course, that's not to say a wrap is always better than a sticker/spot! Hell, just solid Chucks have their place and look very nice!

Ok Mike now you know I cried in the good way.....I can't wait to see it in life though...I will probably cry again ...Everything I love all in one place that I will get to take with me everywhere I go and it tells the story of my life
