ok, question time... I am ordering a red bp and tank, but I don't see a discount popping up for ordering tank w/pv.. Am I missing sumthin??? I am at cc stage. Already put in ecf buzzkill code and got free shipping, but the xtra discount on the tank would help alot. Also ordered another charger, more batts and more batts lolol. Thx!!
Welp I couldn't wait any longer, order# 4236.... Let the stalking, drooling and pacing commence!!!!

Fantastic. Way to screw up my gig with pointless hysteria. Not much point in veneering a tube if it's so perforated with slots that there's no design surface left. Not to mention how much harder the process will get.
Seriously, how many mods are out there? How many have friggin' blown up? Why can't bad PR be combated with facts these days ferchrissake!

Its the safest one out there, there is no better combo of a PV/club made........and I do like mine, too!
Ahh, the USA, land of overblown and overhyped hysteria, where a lack of knowledge prevents noone from making new and idiotic rules!!!
Sorry, Mist, your stuff is so great, too........
Oh snap! I'm sorry Mist, I hadn't even realized what the vents would do to the woodies.
Yeah. I'm not real happy about this. Just saw the pic. Serious pain in the .... to work around. I was doing these for next to nothin' as it was. I can't add the time and work to cut something like that in it even if it didn't screw up the looks.
BTW, this will also make the tube a lot weaker. DAMMIT!

If something vented, wouldn't the veneer come off, so perhaps not a problem to have it? It is a high heat and pressure event.
(if someone wants to know they have a slotted bp under the wood, just look inside the tube and they can see the slots)

I would think that in the event of a battery failure, the veneering would give way where the slots were at. The veneering is just a way to beautify the tube and hide (without hindering) the safety slots....or am I thinking completely wrong?
Perhaps but with voids under the veneer that big the areas would also be very vulnerable to accidental puncture and splitting. That veneer ends up less than 1/36" thick after it's sanded. Doesn't seem practical.
Would a thin mylar outer wrap glued to the tube get you back to a good working surface? It would still give a natural vent path, punch through easily compared to the main aluminum tube, while providing a full smooth working surface for the veneer and a bit of integrity over the voids. It shouldn't add much to the cost/time needed.
A stainless mesh added as an inner tube would look great and prevent FOD form entering the tube, in time it could maybe be colored, green with black mesh, I have a feeling the purple/pink requests I often see here could be both met.

Do you think a thin mylar wrap would really add much integrity to the strength of the veneer over a void like the one on the proto approved by ECF? There's also another issue I just thought of. When I glue the veneers on there is always a fair amount of squeeze out that I have to clean out of the holes that are already there. You know, the necessary ones. This squeeze out would just form a hard epoxy blob inside. Probably block the batteries.
See post #252.
I really can't see it working with this design.
I'd give it a shot, one test pass. Thin is relative. You know what you are working with, though, what is practical; this was just a toss-off thought.
no worry m.i.t.w. ~ haha, finally figured out that is you!!!! Sent you a pm re: issue... It's all good!! See ya over "there".... I would just like to thank you (i think it was you) for mentioning over "there" as we have quite a few over there already... Working on getting more.. Bov is there now, maybe tracy can come and play too, and free and mark and mod and ... and ... To not be pigeon holed by ANOTHER (fill in blank) is refreshing!!
I maybe mistaken, but wouldn't the Veeneered versions only be "NOT ECF" approved? Who's to stop Notcigs from selling them as they are now on their OWN store?
