Hope so! Looks like maybe she disappeared on us though. :(
Nope. Here :)
Sticky roll & bee knees sound good. As long as there's no cinnamon in it. There's a new post in DIY with a re ipe for Cake Pounder or Pounding Cake....a pound cake mix. Of course i'm lacking a few flavors for it. Gotta get an otder together!

Sticky roll has a bit of cinnamon in it. Just a bit, but it's there.

There goes my Woodville button again! I know i'm going to get another one. I should get to saving. Dammit.

What?! I thought you decided you didn't like squonking. What'd I miss? So, do you need a new button, or another REO?

I'm so so. Been havin troubles with my legs fitting right since I took a spill. I had the prosthetist try to adjust my legs with the one I hurt still hurting which I never should have done now I am trying to get them back to being comfortable. Plus I am having a real hard time trying to decide whether to get my doc to let me try and taper off one of my pain meds, the strong one. Seems like everytime I try to back off I can hardly walk but I know I need to because it is really affecting my mental state after 8 years. I am sure it is a big part of my depression.
Oh, Patrick. Not fun! Perhaps the doctor can prescribe something else for pain, without the depressive side effects?

That's how I felt about my eliquid! But it came today! Hopefully it comes Saturday morning before VCCT. :)
I'll be there too! :)
Hi Kosher! Welcome to The Porches! Have a seat! You should meet up with the Porchers there!

I have something else which is also strong but the problem is going to be the withdrawals even if you taper slowly from it you still get them the other stuff will help but I dont want to have to take more of them. They are strong or would be for someone who hasn't built up a tolerance over the years. That's a problem all in its own. When I broke my femur and shoulder one guy in the ER said he had never given anyone so much morphine and still have them awake. He was pretty shocked as I lay on a guerney for 10hrs waiting for the surgeon to come in and operate. Should've just hit me in the head.

But I only use 3mg of nic. It was a problem when I had heart surgery also. Plus I kind of lose it when they give me so much and see things and imagine things. It is definately time to stop. My wife could hardly stand to come in and see me cause I didn't know where I was. That in itself is depressing.

Nooooo! Cinnamon grabs me by the mouth & screams at me, "You will never taste anything but me for the rest of your life!". I can super taste the tinyest bit so I stay away from it.

I'm probably not going to be able to give it a rest until I have a Reo & another Woodville. I know the Woodville will never leave the house, but a Reo probably would on occasion. I'm trying to only get mods that can be repaired easily & will last forevah, so the list has to include Reo's. I'm hoping if I get a LP Grand it will put the Woodville button out of commission. But Woodville. Yeeeeessss. If only to look at & admire.

were those bits and bobs anything you wanted to take to VCC? If not, hope it arrives after you get back!
some of those nice silicone condoms

That's how I felt about my eliquid! But it came today! Hopefully it comes Saturday morning before VCCT. :)
I'll be there too! :)
That wouldn't help much for me because I'm driving over to my Parent's place today so I'm closer to the VCC and my sister and I can go together. ;)


aaaaaaand....

@KosherVapes, welcome to the Porch! You and I chatted, briefly, in the New Members Forum. It's good to see you here :).


Good morning, everyone!

@Legs thanks ever so much for demystifying the TC stuff for me. The thing arrived yesterday and I stuck one of the premade NI coils in it. Kaez had to straighten me out on the why it needed both a temp setting and a wattage setting because that made no sense at all on the face of it. Between the 2 of you I have a clue what I need to buy and how to wrap it. Not really done spaced coils but I am sure I can figure that out.TO clean the coil what about one of those little brush things they give kids for cleaning around braces? Look like miniature bottle brushes.

So very glad to see you here. I really missed you and hope you know you are in my prayers for things to start looking better for you. Depression is a hard hard thing to break out of once it takes hold. Believe me I know that one all too well.

(((((Legs))))))))) surely hope you and your doc can get a handle on it! they do have other things that can lessen withdrawal symptoms, so hopefully it won't be so bad.

I'm hoping if I get a LP Grand it will put the Woodville button out of commission. But Woodville. Yeeeeessss. If only to look at & admire.
What do you think of the P 67's over the grand? Easy on the hands like a woodvil but made of metal. here's the link again in case you didn't see it before.
Reo P 67 prototype

I'm hopin once we get some things from storage, that I can sell enough stuff over spring/summer to get one!

Welcome @KosherVapes ! I will be at VCC Saturday. I will be wearing purple jeans and a purple Tshirt with a picture of a Terv (Belgian Tervuren) on it. Perhaps I will see you there?

We are going in the morning to get the stitches out. I'll have to hog tie her to keep her from breaking it open again. But the Hex Ohm will make it all better with the help of the Porches!

Hope that today goes well for you, hun. Maybe you'll get lucky and they'll give you some sedatives in a to-go baggie? ;) They're a whole lot easier than havin' to hog tie someone... :lol:

I am still trying to figure out WHY Temp control is supposed to be so much better than Wattage. Anyone care to clue me in on that one?

I see that Legs got ya sorted out pretty well last night. :thumbs: Glad to see he came by! :)
For me, it just gives a little more control over things. Also, it seems that I got longer performance out of a wick/coil setup with less maintenance. At least that's my two cents...

Well I haven't used NI200 in a long time. I prefer Ti but with the VTC mini, now I'm not sure on nickel, but with Ti I use a simple single coil 24 or 26 guage 6 wrap spaced and the mini along with other Jtech boards I have to run it between 480F 500F on a subtank mini. Ni is a lot lower resistance then Ti but if you decide to build your own coils the Temco Ti is excellent and easy to work with and to clean. I still haven't decided which I like better the 24 or 26. The 24 has a little smoother vape but it is a little harder to place with the STM. Have to back the screws out quite a ways and if you back it all the way out they are the pits to find if you drop them. The VTC I really like for a more inexpensive TC mod it works really good just have to turn it up more then with the SX. Nickel is a PITA to work with at least for me. If you decide to try Ti get 25' of 26awg from Temco about 5 bucks free shipping I think. I use a coilmaster and wrap a contact coil and stretch it but the Temco is the best I have used between Unkamen, Crazy Wire and Temco. Real soft for Ti. Different looking then any other also kind of a greyish white but smooth not rough like Unk.

Good to see ya, Sir! That is interesting in the quality on the different vendor wires. I've only used "K.Bee Vapor" Ti wire... I think I ordered it off of Amazon. It's been pretty good; shiny, but a touch coarse I think. You can actually see and feel little grooves in the wire. I've only used it on an Invader Mini and a Vaporesso Target mod (no idea what board they used). Neither of them have Ti modes so I've been running Ti in Nickel mode. It works, but the temp coefficients aren't correct so I have to set the temp lower. Anyway, I appreciate your views on what you've seen with it so far. I try to soak this stuff up like a sponge because everything in vaping is so subjective. I like to see what a lot of others are experiencing and then just kinda mash all that experience together. ;)

I'm getting depressing now so I think I will sign off. You can probably tell I am still not doing that great.

Sorry to hear that you are still having troubles. I hope that the doctors can help you with the medicine situation and get you back to a happier, healthier mindset! You still remain on the prayer list and you're not comin' off of it! :D

Those little brushes would probably work pretty good! I've never tried them, but now that you've mentioned them I may have to go pick up a little package of them at the store! :D
