If I concentrate, more than I want to I can follow you but why would I bother?
Break it down a little for us layman!

No problem on the cancer. Had lung cancer 2 1/2 years ago. They took the bottom half of my right lung. No chemo or radiation needed. Very early detection. I was extremely lucky. I had pneumonia and they saw the tumor on the xray. Dectected on April 8th 2012 and surgery on May 9th 2012. Quick like a bunny. The big problem is I already had COPD and losing 1/2 a lung hasn't helped. Breathing can be a class a b..ch sometimes but, vaping has helped a bunch. Cancer and smoke free for 2 3/4 years now.

For those that don't know, these are forced patina on mech mods. Copper and brass. What you do is suspend them over a ammonia and salt bath and " force" them to corrode till you like the color they are. Wash them off, dry and clear coat. You now have a one of a kind patina mod. There is more to it but not much. I am more that willing to answer any questions! Or explain further! View attachment 372081 View attachment 372082

The patinas are gorgeous! They really deserve centerfold treatment.


Someone needs to lower their nic content/intake.

:lol:

Thank you, thank you very much

Why did I hear that in Elvis voice?

In other news I killed off the bottle of NJoy liquid. The bottles they use have a long skinny dripper tip that I suspect would be great for the variant of Kayfun/Russian that requires that. Unfortunately they are a pita to get the tip off to wash the bottles. I had to take plyers to it.

Oh man, you were lucky! My father had half a lung removed something like 55 years ago. He's 90 now and still chugging along quite nicely.He has hereditary heart problems.Stroke, heart attack, triple bypass and pace maker. If ever there was a walking billboard for taking care of yourself and listening to your doctor (IF you have a good one), he's it.

2 3/4 years, Yeehaw! :party: They can't do anything to help your breathing?

Let's move this to the back porch. See you there.

I thought we would have been there by now but, my health has slowed down the preps for selling the house. I have to finish the new flooring and recoat the deck so we can put it on the market then we're outta here.

I already had the air adjustment screw all the way backed off, and it was still a very tight draw. This is the Infinite KFL+ V2 by the way, which has the air adjustment set screw on the bottom, not the KFL+ which has the air adjusment screw on the side. The full air path goes from the side air hole, which was less than 1/16th (maybe 3/64ths or there abouts), across the air adjustment screw, into the central shaft, through the air hole on the side of the center pin, and up vertically through the center pin (which was right around 1/16th). I increased the diameter of the side airhole all the way through to the central shaft to about 5/64ths, and smoothed out the vertical air channel in the center pin to a smidge over 1/16th. So, at the tightest point, I increased the air diameter from around 3/64th to a little over 1/16th. This might not sound like much, but air flow is related to the square of the diameter, so I got a net increase in air flow of around 78%. (1/16)^2/(3/64)^2 is 1.777... So, even though it's a minor mod, it almost doubled the airflow.

Wait, wait ... let me check w/ my old faithful reference book.

Good grief! I missed a whole page!!! Must have missed it when I was trying to catch up. Thanks.

I have some bottle tips that don't want to come off too. If I push a knife blade between the tip and the bottle a lift it'll usually pop off. Just be careful not to cut the bottle.

My right thumbnail has a chronic split. I usually use my needle-nose pliers. Sometimes I can flip the nipple off (please disregard play on words). But with the pointed ones, pliers are first choice.

Too good to ignore! Pliers? :D

Yup, that was an elvis:)

I got one of the last kayfun mini's and it fills well through the fill port but the clones I picked up are top fill only. The little valve in the fill hole just doesn't work worth a dam. Just another clone down fall. I haven't checked to see if kayfun ever started up with the mini's again.

Thank you for that. Is the tip on the NJoy longer than the empty bottle tip you get from Wizard Labs? I looked all over trying to find a picture of an NJoy bottle, not box, and discovered they make 10mg too. Bottle will apparently cost you $7.99 to see.
