I seem to be the lone kayfun v4 fan...

:(

Nope - I have 2 Tobecco's and 1 svoemesto. I use them on a P3, a Polidiac and a Nemisis.

My main vapes right now are the P3 and a Radius w/ a nano-KFL. The KFL-V4, to me, feels top heavy on the Radius. I really like the additional airflow of the V4 but the V2's still work fine for me.

And now that my V2 stable is full, I'll be looking for good prices on a couple more V4s.

Keep in mind - that it's my wife and me vaping so not all the toppers I talk about are just for me.

I had the same thing with the bridge happen. I lost the first tooth because the filling rotted out from underneath the filling. Two actually did that, both fillings put in by the same dentist. The dentist that had to fix the mess was livid. Finding a good dentist is 90% of the battle.

$5,000! :w00t: I was told a thousand a tooth. :cry: Wonder how 3D printing is coming along for teeth.

Did they say anything about the implants healing faster if you didn't "smoke"? Baditude, he used to sork in surgery, as you probably know, said that nic does interfere with healing from surgery. I always smoked, now vape, as soon as I can after surgery. :lol: Anyway, just curious if it applies to that or not.

Glad you survived your trip out onto the ledge. :)

I'd like to know also.

This the one you guys are ordering?

Well, what if stash #1 gets stolen. ;)

No frass. :grr:
I thought porcelain caps (don't know the technical name they use) were a thousand a tooth. I have good teeth, straight and only my molars have crowns, but this obsession with blinding white teeth is unnatural. Unnatural acts come naturally to me! I know my dad really needed implants, but he was too old in the tooth to put himself through that. They make snap on smile teeth that come in different shades and they are affordable ... I think. But I found out that you have to take them out every time you eat or drink. I can just imagine the stares I'd get if I removed the snap on smile in public restaurants! They'd ask us to leave for sure!

It's wonderful you could have all that work done by a pro (not a grave digger, or worse) and I'll bet they will look great! Do they hurt for very long? Remember Little Shop of Horrors??? The original LSOH with Jack Nicholson??? It is one of my all-time favorite movies!!! The remake doesn't come close! It's a really old B movie in black and white. Fantastic!!!

Looks like you're no longer on the ledge. I'm like the others... orders to not smoke went in one ear and out the other.

Out the mouth and up the nose, French inhale, sure.



You saved the extraction costs.

$42? I never had more than 32 teeth.

Had 12 implants put in 5.5 years ago, 7 upper and 5 lower, with full dentures made to snap onto them. All of the lower implants are still good, but every last one of the upper ones came out. I still use the same upper denture, with lots of Poligrip, and hate it that way. Some of you have heard me talk with my upper teeth removed. So I plan to get back to the oral surgeon one of these days and try to put a lien on the new Mercedes I bought for him.

If I can't work a good deal with "the oral surgeon of the Carolina Hurricanes" who did the work originally, I'll seriously consider going overseas for a dental vacation.

Did you hear about the guy who didn't need novacaine? He said he could transcend dental medication. Ba-da-bump.
Transcend dental medication!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: How can we be sure you are not Shirley MacLaine??? ROTFLINGMAO!!!!!!!!!!

Did my cushion in the sun get moved with the porch? If not this old purple kitty might just have to invest in a new one.

As you all know it was a rough summer and that turned into a stupidly busy tiring summer helping the Mother in Law adjust to things and deal with property and finances and 100 other things (yes I did have to teach her how to check her tires and put gas in the car). It all added up to I needed some time to decompress and become a much less growly kitty. :)

I am doing fine overall. Vaping wise I think I am going through another one of those change periods.

After months of nothing tasting good to me suddenly the tastebuds have kicked into high gear and everything tastes too strong or not like I thought it did. So now I am mucking about with some new DIY flavor at MUCH lower concentrations.

After vaping 24 mg all summer I am finally back down to 12 and working my way back down to 4 which seems to be the lowest I can go and stay sane.

I have finally figured out how to drive with my REOs. Now I just hate taking them out of the house as I am afraid I will loose one. Yes folks I managed to loose 2 ego batteries over all the traveling dealing with my father in laws illness.

I just picked up a NIFTY kit for rebuilding tools Wotofo DIY Kit

I also am giving those japanese cotton pads a try. So far loving them.

Super handy for portable REO maintenance and having everything in one place. I LOVE the coil winder in it. The tools seem to be decent quality as well.

I am seriously considering picking up a sub box mini kit for a portable vape that I wouldn't cry if I dropped or lost. Its a decent deal at $60 and the reviews are excellent. Any opinions?

Anyways just thought I would pop in and let you all know that I am still around. I often lurk and read the forums more than I post these days as I am often doing it on my phone which is not particularly suited to typing messages.

Hi Myrany - nice to hear from you and that things are going better. That looks like a nice complete DIY kit - enjoy it. Don't know anything about the sub-box, can't help you with that.

Maybe because Iffy is a Beagle, he has a larger mouth? Ooo. I can't remember my teeth coming in, but I actually remember walking for the first time! No one in my family was ever expecting that much from me!!! They told me I would crawl for the rest of my life ... if I was lucky!!! I sure showed them!!! And I took my first steps at nine!!!

Just kick back when ya can and regroup yourself!

After vaping 24 mg all summer I am finally back down to 12 and working my way back down to 4 which seems to be the lowest I can go and stay sane.

Just take your time and adjust as you're well capable with your vaping experiences.

I have finally figured out how to drive with my REOs.

Really impressed wid your ability to drive a REO... let alone having more dan one...

Haven't looked into the different types, the $1,000 ones are out of the question right now. My father, 92, just got one. I'll have to ask him how much of my inheritance he spent on it. Not sure why they even allowed him to go through that at his age. Seems a bridge might have been a better choice but maybe that wasn't possible. Mine are missing in the back so not as big a "cosmetic" embarrassment as it could be.

I'm not much for the blindly white teeth either, kinda creepy. Cleaning some of the staining is one thing, looking like a neon light is another world but I bet they make good money doing it.

Forgotten he'd done that movie, I'll have to look it up.

Oh, I never had the implants so couldn't tell you.
But ... but ... wouldn't num-num like a new hat? :rolleyes:
That's hitting below the belt. :lol:

Myrany! Good to see you. :D Of course we moved your cushion to the new porch, don't be silly.

I had the exact same thing happen with the flavors recently. One day it was just way too harsh. Had to make up a bottle of plain to add to the regular just so I could finish vaping the bottle.

Glad things are starting to get back on an even keel for you.
