So do I, every now and again :) Except my definition of cloudz will never win a contest!


I vape 30/70, for the most part. That's what I mix...

vape NoVA is my go to shop. I love those folks! Aaron, especially, has helped me so much. Wow. Small world.
ha, that's weird yeah I know him, sometimes I go in there w/ a dripper to try their sample juices for diy ideas, then I feel bad and buy a bottle of something.

I'm back home so last night I tried rebuilding my gf's kayfun, I did a 3mm coil with my normal scottish roll just less cotton that I normally use, trimmed the way you guys said... I didn't have the courage to take it to work with me but I guess she grabbed it. I'll ask her tonight how it did.

How hard do you have to pull on these?

@kiba, have you ever given rayon (100% cellucotton) a try? I've been using it for over a year now. I try all the new "designed for vaping" cottons because I'm an open minded kinda guy but always end up going back to cellucotton. I won't win any cloud chasing contests with it but the flavor is cleaner than any other organic wicking product I've tried. May be the flavor is so good because it wicks juice so fast and consistently.
ECF thread link here if you're interested:
Rayon Wick - Better Flow, Flavor, Longevity, and Nic Hit!! - Pt.2

No but I want to, that's the only tyoe of cotton I haven't tried yet. I do have a freind who uses it religiously, and to me it doesn't taste all that different from my regular kgd pads. I had heard you could get it at Sally's which, my gf's a hairdresser so she's there often, but she's not found it yet.

It's kind of like cotton but it's actually plant fiber (cellulose) just not from the cotton plant. There are different blends of rayon but the one that most rayon users swear by is this one. 500ft. For $13 at Sally's Beauty.

@cigatron, thanks for the rayon link. I bought a box awhile ago, but haven't yet tried it. Think I'll go browse... :)

There is a wealth of information on using and wicking with rayon in the first couple of posts. Jeremy is the rayon King!

It's Graham's Cellucotton, in a big box. Make sure you get the rayon one because they also have a cotton one. On my phone or I would try to post a picture. People are also using Kotex-U tampons (yea, sounds weird!). They are 100% rayon. I have not used them yet, but I guess you unroll the tampon and use the rayon. There are other brands used, one is rayon balls (like cotton balls) but I can't think of the brand. Delasco (darn autocorrect!) or something. I think they are medical grade and people get them online.?

Check the rayon thread, good stuff.

The Graham rayon "cellucotton" is available on Amazon.

@cigatron and @clnire, I read the first page of the rayon thread, and oh oh! This looks kinda complicated. How long did it take all y'all to figure it out?

Rayon's easy, all I use as well.

Just need to adjust the density, it needs to be tighter than cotton. Other than that, your regular build should be fine. Maybe need to thin the tails on some tanks.

Legs, not criticizing, but paragraph breaks are a good thing for some people. My glasses are so bad at this point it gets difficult to follow along through even a small wall of text. It would be appreciated, I like reading your stuff/vaping adventures.
No problem I just get to rambling and keep writing, Will try to remember.

Even thou I don't post on here often I just wanted to say thank you all for all you do for vapers by sharing your knowledge and your life stories. I find you are the best people very caring and helpful. Something I've notice is the threads I read the most have a lot of the same people in them and I think they are the best threads on ECF even when people disagree on here no one seems to stay mad long and everyone is quick to apologize and forgive. Just know that each and everyone of you are in my heart and prayers everyday.

I'm off-ended by that. :w00t: I likes chuck'n me sum cloud banks sumtymz.:pervy:

Yeah, don't blame you. I was thing cloud competitions but that didn't filter down to my fingers. There are a number of people here that like decent clouds but I don't think anyone has entered a contest.

Never gave the exhaled volume any thought when I smoked but do seem to favor more "cloudz" when I vape. Even a moderate vape, what mine is, makes smoking look anemic.

No problem I just get to rambling and keep writing, Will try to remember.

Legs, thank you.
