Hold on to that....might be worth enemies one day:laugh:
Glad you're around sweet cheeks. I've been bored and missing you.
You been missing me????;)

I always miss you when you aren't around. I miss everybody in here..especially as of late. (Although, not as much as you and Jake.. just don't tell the others that)

No they haven't. I've been fubared and busy and you have been being a stellar super hero helping the tarded roof.....lol...(bet that boy don't hold his tongue right 1 time....am I right????).....but bet he perpetrated a "finger wiggle" on everything he saw. Shingles, hammers,tar paper rolls,squirrels, small children and donuts.
You are a hero buddy......bet you got fingered wiggled at least a few times.....each hour.

He actually had Joe holding his tongue for him, most of the time. His finger wiggling didn't stop at those things, btw!

I did the finger thing quite a bit, until one was smashed.. So I had Jake kiss it and make it better! He really is a caring and gentle guy!

Well...that's a good looking coil, and I've found the cotton to take a while to wick really well....I drip the shiate out of it at first.
I also find that cotton tastes weird after about 4 days.....that may be me and my set up. But wen I can re wick with cotton for about 1/1000 of a cent....I'm good. 3/4 days I need a good coil burn anyway.

How's the DIY going???
Anything I need to sample?

My DIY is not going as well as I had hoped it would. I followed a couple recipes that I found in the DIY forums and I didn't care for them. They lacked flavor in my opinion. Everything I have made up to this point likes flavor. I stated at 5% flavoring and I am up to 12% now. I gave a bottle to somebody at work and they loved it. I can taste vendor juices just fine so I know it is not my taste buds.

Finger wiggling is best left to the pros...
If you do it wrong you wind up married to an 8 year old and living in Malcomb......

What flavors are you using and what are you trying to acheive(fruit,sweet, etc....)
Pitt and jake are pretty good at the girly stuff.....I kinda know baccos.
I'll bet you a double Dewars we all would be willing to throw our stupid opinions your way.

I built yet another coil. This time I used 28gauge. Hawk, I found the biggest reason people use the thicker gauge wire is that you can get more coils in while keeping your resistance low. The coil I just built is 1.6ohms. This time I wrapped it around a 5/16th drill bit so I would have more room to thread a wick through. The wick is not so tight now and I am not getting dry hits. I found in taking off my last coil, that it had burnt right through my wick!

I have a boba's clone that I have steeping now. The flavors are starting to pop through. I got the recipe in the DIY forums for it. I have been trying to make a girly Peaches and Cream for a girl at work. I have my last attempt that I made yesterday, steeping for a couple days. I added lemon juice and EM to this mixture and the flavor stood out more then the other attempts but still not where I want it to be.

It's all trial and error my friend. The key is to hit on something that keeps you from chasing the "pro juice" dragon.
Yeah...I know my handmade grogs are sophomoric compared to chemist blend stuff....but good enough to keep me from chasing the juice du jor.....I got really tired of chasing the next big thing and being disappointed time after time.

I guess I am a perfectionist. I got into DIY because I couldn't find a juice that really stood out and would be my all day vape. I felt I needed an adv to stay off the analogs for good.

What I have found so far is that I get hints of flavor from my juices, not where I want them but then again not mute. I only get them though when I drip. If I try them in a genesis, they are mute. Makes me scratch my head.

I just placed an order for some more flavorings, EM and AP. My mixing time is pretty limited and I shot yesterday away with tinkering with micro coils. I have ideas in mind for some recipes, just need the time to put them together. I also lack tobacco flavoring which I have taken care with my order today.

I would love to get together with you guys and pick your brains about DIY. I may bring you some Natty or Dewars as payment!

Holy crap, it has been eerily quiet in here the last couple of days.. How's everybody doing, this fine weekend?

I have been deathly I'll since sat. At 2:00am. I've never puked so much in my life. Every 30 minutes till 9:00 last night. My throat is torn up...blood sugar is whacked....I didn't even touch my pv yesterday.
