My new (first) mod... probably not airport friendly

[nlogax]

So I decided that I was going to attempt to build a cig from scratch and today was the day. I was always a sucker for knobs and dials so I kind of built it around that. Looks like some kind of detonator or something lol. Anyways, works great, hits great and looks (?) great

​

. These are just various bits of scrounged junk i had. I'm pretty happy with it and with the lr atomizer on it totally kicks. Keep in mind I've never tried to build ANYTHING like this before, so be gentle lol. It wasn't built for any reason other that i thought it would look cool....to hell with portability and form! lol

That's awesome...I love the form and the way the battery is held in place.

Is the knob functional?

L

 

[guppy]

I wouldnt dare take that out in public due to the fact of that recent marathon bombing. We normally are afraid of getting pulled over for looking like we're vaping something else but with that in your hands?!?!? Be cautious of holding that in your hands in public lol

 

[guppy]

Is it just me? Or do you guys look at things and think, hmmmm... that might turn out to be a nice mod!?!...

Thanks! Yeah the knob is functional but its only two position, on and off. The incremental numbers are just for looks.

Ha, I've absolutely started to do that... there's a doorknob that i'm sizing up right now lol

 

[DrMA]

That looks awesome.

Very Cool!

Just don't name it the detonator and call it that when they ask what it is. You will be surprised a lot of TSA people vape so they don't have to go outside. I flew with a bunch of them in a bag that on X-ray looked VERY BAD they opened the bag asked what they were I pulled one out took a puff and said they were e cigs and they said ok and lost interest really quick

I hear ya, this would be the last thing i'd travel with... i could only imagine the attention it would get. I'll take the moneypenny I just got... it just looks like a harmless pipebomb. kidding. It's a good thing I rarely fly but I'd prolly just take my #19.

 

[LongHaul]

My first time flying I took my cig look a likes and my silver bullet cause I was freaked out thinking if they kept it that's all I wanted to loose. Now I don't worry so much and take my GGTS and figure worst case is I tear it all down and separate all the pieces.

Absolutely, the first thing I learned about modding is the enclosure is everything!

You know it! Once you have the box, the rest kind of flows from there. Once you start modding, the dollar store and yard sales are never the same
