Oh that looks real nice. :hubba: Really ties in the top plate. A copper plated Cyclone would just be killer on that... you know if it existed lol.

I have to agree, that turned out gorgeous.

However, there's no way I'd copper plate an atty. Several reasons: Copper won't stay shiny for long. It inevitably turns brown or green or something, and it's a bloody pain to keep looking decent (unless of course you happen to like the patina). The other thing wrong with a copper plated atty is that some of the compounds that copper forms (particularly the green and blue ones) are poisonous. This would be particularly problematical if your juice were at all acidic..

Looks absolutely fantastic turbo! Sounds like you beat the game :)

I saw some thing a few hundred posts ago (a few days ago) about some new fangled silver button spring; 2 things, first I'm all aboard and would hope that you have one set aside for me. And second, now that it's Been a while how are those working out?

wow that bog oak is amazing, I really like that a lot :)



Turbo, how's that Wizard Evolved?

it's a very nice piece. I carry it with me and only use it when I happen to be with a customer or on the odd occation I feel like not squonking or just want a menthol hit to break it up a bit, truth is average people expect an ecig to look more like that, who knows what they might think when they see me chugging clouds from a box mod, I mean they don't say anything to me most times but they just look at me strange sometimes. now I'm not the kind of guy who really cares what people think but when it comes to customers I really hate to have them go away wondering what tf I was smoking and maybe decide that I'm not the right guy to fix their car after all :p

I have gotten some strange looks from customers in the past with box mods, with the WE however I get the "oh, is that one of those e cigarettes?" yeah, it looks more like a big fat ego so it's not so foreign to them. it is an awesome piece but the 18490 is limited, as is the aqua with only 2ml capacity, but for what I use it for it's perfect and believe it or not if it saves me from losing just a few jobs from the what the f looks I get, then it'll pay for itself :D the 18490 expires around the time the 2ml is gone so it's a good match and the aqua fits it like it was made for it, both being the odd 21mm diameter :)
