Perfect tool for popping the cap on cartomizers!

[dreamwalker]

I have found the perfect tool, I have tried alot of random things including most of the hooks and what not from the GF's craft bin but nothing has worked as well as this. It is a size 2 2.25mm crochet hook that I found at Jo ann Fabrics for 1.49 on sale this week (normally 1.99)

It looks like this. Just wanted to let everyone know

That's what I use too - it's perfect! Congratulations on your find!

I use the metal leg from an aligator paper clip.

Right this very minute I am testing an easy to remove cap. It pops off easily with your fingertips. The concern however is whether it might come off in your mouth while taking a drag. Especially with an auto battery. So, I brought a handful of them with me on my Christmas holiday, and will be using them all weekend, with the hardest draw auto batteries in my inventory.

Nice!! I hope they work out!

Was thinking if they pop off too easy maybe a recessed 1/4 turn screw thread. example. you would have to pop the cap up a bit then turn to remove? just a thought.

Well, if you guys never hear from me again, you'll know I choked to death on a cart cap.

No, no don't choke! If you have to swallow the cap that's ok though, it would probably taste better than some of the stuff you've had to eat!

A person can survive without oxygen for about 1 minute, naturally, after that it's a feat of breath holding.
Post time is 30s required between posts.
So you should have no problem letting us know you're ok, just post every 30-60seconds.

Actually, it's got a hole in it, so I probably wouldn't choke, I'd just walk around whistling every time I take a breath.

OK, that'll work, nothing wrong with whistling. Just be careful how many of the workers you end up picking up. Unintentional flirting is still flirting.

 

[leaford]

Man, you have no idea how many of these girls I would LOVE to whistle at! But I know better than to fish off the company pier!
