Hold on while I consider it...

meh

Let sleeping dogma lie

Most likely a wise choice.

btw has anyone looked into spinning sliver as a source of parallel fiber cotton and rayon? yes that is sliver not silver.

Example (and maybe not the best price)

New World Textiles Combed Organic Upland Cotton Paradise Fibers

I use hemp sliver. It works. But I just couldn't get used to the 'flavor' hemp added to all my juice flavors. No matter how many hours or boiling and cleaning w/ oxyclean I could always taste the hemp.

I never stretch the pad. It's more of a flex or the strip of wick I had cut. I don't even have to do that. I found that just the handling of the wick causes it to start losing the compression, sliding it back & forth in the coil, etc. I know when I change the wick it is no longer compressed.

Sweet Kenna, sure hope your steroid shot hasn't fully kick in yet. 'Cause if it has, I'm in sum deep kimshi...

Thanx to you, I'll never (re)wick without thinkin' of you!

I tried rayon, it had a taste I didn't like. I'd like to try the coil cotton as long as it's not bleached or chemically treated & is 100% cotton, tho.
I found the same about cotton for me. Isn't to each his/her own wonderful? :D

According to our Science buy we are wrong :)
I can accept that he knows more than I do about such things.
Plus he has a cool microscope that takes pictures. My old fashioned one does not :(
I didn't use a microscope to figure that out, I looked it up. :D

Ahhh ... another aquisition pending the deeming. A Svoemesto KFV4 from the classifieds for a little less than 1/2 price. All cleaned and ready to use.

I have 3 Svoemesto KFV4s. and I have to say I like them a lot. got tired of changing the cotton wick every 3 days, so wicked with Silica wick and they are working like troopers. So far, the last coils I made ( last month) are working like troopers. good flavor, good clouds. I'm not a cloud chaser, but a flavor chaser... so both are subject to personal opinion.

Note to self: Do not get 36 pages behind on this thread. Second note to self: If you do get behind, add to multi-quote as reading, cuz you'll never find the right posts again - and if you do, you won't remember what you wanted to say! :lol: :lol:

I've been using cotton bacon. Fluffy and clean. Works, and I have a lot. It'll do :)

Aside from the great pics of moss, that's about all I can remember. Oh - and somethin' about Iffy and lil pointy tweezers ... An' Ken's very cool 3D printer boxes. Yuup. That's about it!

Missed all y'all! I was in Phoenix and had dreadful internet connectivity. Dropped constantly. There are a lot of vapers in Phoenix, of all ages. Very cool to see. And I vaped in the airport, right under the nose of TSA. No problem. I was bein' bad :D

I vaped in the Dr's office again today. Couldn't much, tho. That little room fogs up too fast!
IKR? I took tootle puffing to a whole new level. Little-ish puffs and held the vapor in for an eternity! But between getting to the airport 90 minutes early and knowing the flight would be 5 hours, I figured I had to try :oops:.
