ha, gg those cases are pretty cool I guess but I wouldn't want a case that the dibi can just slide in and out of, that wouldn't help me because the times I'd drop it would be when it's out of the case being vaped anyway :D I really want something very form fitting with the squonk hole cut out of it, something that stays on the mod like a form fitted jacket and only adds minimally to it's size, not just a slip in generic case type deal. the only way to get what I'm picturing is to have it custom tailored to the mod. how hard can it be? leather is even easier to cut and shape than wood :) maybe I should look into a local tailor, they might be able to do something I guess... I would just hate to have to send the mod out to have a case made for it

Oh yeh... the squonk hole... good point. My little purse has a little pocket. I keep my bottles inside, and the mod in the pocket. Didn't even think of the hole for the squonker.

Local shoe repair shop should be able to do it too. Actually, I've got a couple of pairs of fine calf leather pants that I won't ever wear again. Not a fat chance I could sell them for what they cost, but I have no other use for them. Was thinking of cutting them up to the shape I want, and taking them to a shoe repair shop to do the sewing (you have to have HEAVY thread and strong machines to sew leather).

Check with your wife to see if she's got an old very soft leather handbag she doesn't use at all anymore (nearly every woman has a collection of these)... the amount of leather you need for a case wouldn't be much, and you can cut a big piece out and piece it together with safety pins how you want, and take it to any shoe/luggage repair (maybe even some dry cleaners) to sew it together for you (and add clasps and magnets or snaps).

They'd only charge you like $10 for a custom case you designed yourself if you bring all the materials... professionally sewn, custom designed by yourself:).

Oh... for men, bet you guys have some leather jackets trying to mold away somewhere in the back of your closet too:). Other idea is leather GLOVES... think the space between finger holes = squonk holes. A little imagination, and you have a Gaultier ... :p.

Well, I'm offering a trade for it... I've got over 30 mods, and with few exceptions (like dibi #99 and one wood DNA30), I'm done buying mods because I don't need MORE. Trades on the other hand are totally justifiable all the time:). He hasn't agreed yet tho.

I have a gigantic Bogger VV... don't have a straight unregulated. But I wanted the purple heart yes:). I have a purple heart/rosewood/blue spectra gem trim arriving in the mail tomorrow that I ordered 2 months ago that is really exciting (best looking rosewood I've ever seen):)! I don't have a clue what purple heart even looks like in person.

Oh yeh I forgot:cry:, there is that $5,000 out of pocket thing for my upcoming surgery so I would have been in so much trouble with the wife if I would have pulled that trigger.

also $5k for eye surgery so i can actually see the dang things

Ouch... but why are you spending $5K for eye surgery? It's covered by insurance no? Even at 20% copay, it shouldn't cost $5K...

Only $900 on mods? I beat that so far this month by a good sized margin:p. (I am married... but I have stocked my closet up with goodies in case my husband tries to lock me in there).

short version: obamacare sucks
long version: the best eye surgeon here is out of network and i opted for some additional stuff.
surgery was yesterday and today i rebuilt a coil for the first time in 2-3 months, so it's good.

You did HSA? Because Obamacare would force you into the lower deductible due to forced increased coverage like it did us. That's what I had before... $11,700 deductible. Now we have a $7000 deductible, but 20% copay:(.

I got lasik monovision a few years ago, I like it. No glasses ever, I can see everything... but bad depth of field:(.

I don't spend that much every month (good thing)... this last month I got a Spheroid, a LOT of batteries, a huge Nicotine order, REO kit, Bogger Box VV, Phidias Woodimus Feedimus, Dibi OliveR, Red Sky Cruiser 26650, Ecig Workshop TankGuard (that's what I'm waiting for), Cyclone BF and a bunch of other small things.

The 5 most expensive wood mods in the same month, plus 2 expensive atomizers (plus 50 custom bottom feeder RBA) is a lot... I can't buy nuttin else or hubby will lock me in my closet.

But! I'm not doing that again:p.

Even with my harley expenditures and various vape gear expenditures, mods, shoe boxes full of juices, etc I still don't think I have come close to matching my wife's shoe expenditures. Of course I'm now using her logic back at her, "but honey it was on sale, so I actually saved money" and with the new harley I scored an amazing interest rate making the new one a lower payment then my other one was, never mind that's spread over 6 years :toast:
