They are very pretty! Mike and I were just wondering about Mul and Kico. Hope they're just happily vaping away and enjoying life.

If you're interested in going all the way - this mechanical w/ geny tank looks pretty sweet. Comes w/ 3 tubes to use either 18350, 18500/490 or 18650. Max quantity for the co-op is 300 and I think there's about a dozen openings yet.

I know I've posted this elsewhere, just can't remember if I have in this thread.
My minimal DIY requirements:
nic
VG
PG
flavors
eJuice Me Up calculator
20ml syringe
5ml syringe
1ml syringe
30ml bottles
5ml or 7ml bottles (for test samples)
120ml bottle (for bulk base)
100ml graduated glass cylinder (for bulk base mixing)
Of course I have more DIY equipment
, but the list is what I actually use 98% of the time.
I mix 100ml of base (nic/PG/VG) and put that into a 120ml bottle that has a flip turret top cap. I use 5ml or 7ml bottles for test samples. Most of my mixes are 30ml, sometimes 60ml. Note that I do not use needles, pipettes or funnels; no need fer 'em.
I have no fear of needles, but they're just too fussy. Therefore I use syringes sans needles for flav mixing:
remove syringe plunger
place little finger tip on syringe tip
drip in flav or nic base or PG or VG in syringe top
place tip over mix bottle
remove finger, insert tip
reinsert plunger
slowly 'plunge'/empty
That's only one way to mix. But it's the quickest, most accurate and fuss free method for me.
Ya don't have to spend a fortune buying DIY kits that have items ya probably won't use.
Good luck!
ETA: BTW, if your syringes are not embossed, place a strip of Scotch tape over the graduations/measurements. They will 'disappear' through use if ya don't.

I'm 57 and smoked for most of my life since I was about 14. I tried quitting many times with no success. I quit smoking cigs the first day I started vaping once I got a decent APV. I started out with a basic Cig2O, which was just so so, and have gradually upgraded to what I have now, which is a Vision Spinner 1300mah with CE4 clearomizers. I have some Baby Kanger T3s also, but not sure yet whether or not I like them.
terirose,

Welcome terirose 
You found a good place to hang your coat, there are nice people here.

MikeE3! I didn't mean to leave you out!!! I am so grateful for your help. My eyes were crossing this morning (around 4) when I placed my order. I hope some day to be able to pay it forward to you and everyone here. Thank you very much.
Here's one I came across during my search.
Mountain Vaporizer 18650 Battery Tube
Its $17.00 and I didn't know what it was. I had never heard of a mechanical mod. At this price I'm wondering if it wouldn't be good to have in my backup box. Is there anything I should know about safety?

Welcome terirose! I just recently found these lovely people and am so glad I did! They've been so friendly and such a big help to me.
Hey there Terirose and welcome to the group. We've got some pretty informed and friendly people here and love to welcome new comers. Like you, I quit the day I got my kr808. Would have lost the bet if anyone had told me that would happen! MikeE3 is my hubby and although he started the same day, didn't give up the last few ciggies until almost 2 months later. Happy to say it's been 17 months now. I'm loving the Rider Robust and a ProVari mini with mini novas and tanks with fusion carts. A few months ago I started DIY so it's been a fun and interesting journey.
Welcome, terirose! Folks here are mighty friendly and are eager to help.
Iffy, I c/p that list of yours into my 'OneNote' when you first posted it, but don't remember which thread it was in either!
Glad you brought it up again, because I had totally forgotten about the turret top caps. Now, I'm re-reading my notes so I don't make another mistake with my ordering supplies.
Have to look to see if they have 120ml amber or cobalt bottles to fit the caps. I know RTS has them, but still doing some shopping for my second order.
