You are very correct, Sirius, and enjoyed reading what needed to be said.

"In general" believe ALL of us love Doug's wood tips, but the ladies do gravitate to many colors and bling. Then, the ladies do seem to have more interest in tips having more of a statement to their whole setup.....sorta akin to decorating the home or dressing for a night out.

Seems like we've got more options in our culture.
What brings in the most income for Kayte and Doug to make a living at something they love doing and rings my bells? You betcha! Am vaping right now on my "Calamity Jane", page 945, post 9442; and it got the most attention at Sun.'s mini meet among the ladies with hubby's "Dyed Box Elder Burl", Page 692, post 6914, coming in a close second with the guys!
Edit to add: However, it was the females that showed more interest in tips. The guys liked more to show off their mods and rebuilt coils and wicking.
