Hey guys, just ordered my first batch of diy supplies. I went through the diy Shack as it seems I could find everything in one place. I've got a commercial tobacco/coffee that's my go to, all day vape. I bought heavenly tobacco and French vanilla. Along with a fruit pack and the pg/vg bases.

Needless to say, I've been spending way to much on juice now that I've got my vtr and an rba (that fits!). Here's hoping I can turn out some decent product and save myself some more money.

I'm just stared doing DIY and love it! I'm using recipes until I get a feel for it before trying mixing on my own. I recently changed to rayon wicking which caused me to go through juice quicker (worth it for the flavor though!) so I went to DIY so it wouldn't cost so much for juice. There are some really good recipes on the recipe thread.

Hope you enjoy DIY'ing! It can be alot of fun for most of us. It is a good idea to start off simple, use one flavor mixes, do small batches (5mls), get to know each flavor before advancing into mixing multiple flavors. You'll be a pro at it in no time. Do expect errors and don't beat yourself up about it. You may want to make your small batches without nicotine so as not to waste it in case it doesn't turn out well. If you like it add your nic.
