Pinnacle Drip Tips

[whokrz]

Whorkz we would be happy to help name them for sure!!!

ok so changing my original requests now I know how they fit and look with my gear!

I want to get the
Nebula fire in the wide bore maybe 1.25 for my bros spheroid! (he does like straight tips if possible)
bronze and violet my spheroids 1.25 any style/shape you want to do whorkz, I know you have something cooking in your head!

Also I saw on your gentry wood turning site that you have done an antler tip? would you still be doing those?

if so I would love one. My husband is an avid hunter we have two wall hangings (full mount & two European mounts. and if I could ever get him into vaping) I know he would proudly vape on an antler tip...until then I would whatever style woudl be the easiest and 1.25 in height!

and the last one I found this Genesis Blank #18 - Pink Lotus - WoodTurningz in a 1.25 in the straight grove style.

I updated your requests on the list.
Antler can only be done by hand because of the CA finish. After tooling the lathe I am going to program a press fit stainless core for wood turners that want to make their own tip. If the core works I will test it in antler.

Lewis, this time you haven't sent newsletter about the sale. Would you please make newsletter work next time. Thanks a lot in advance.

Do you sell your drip tips anywhere else except in DiscountVapers? If you still get or will get private orders, I can buy 10 drip tips made from M3 any color and Tru Stone any blue, violet, and green colors except Dark Blue Lapis in Comfort style.

Sorry about that. I only send out the newsletter when a batch is released. Those 5 tips were misplaced and later found at DV, so I just posted it on the forum.
I only sell tips threw DV. After tooling the lathe and testing I will start taking requests again, but the tip limit is 5.



Here is Spartanstew's 1.5 inch comfort in a kingly coat.

The last of the tool should be shipping on Monday. The company that I ordered from has been great and keeps me updated. The delay is at the company that actually makes the tool. Monday I will start adding tools to the lathe.

Thanks for your response Lewis. Any time you want to make it and 5 drip tips per request works for me. Let me know if I need to make another request when its the time. Thanks a lot again.

Awesome thanks for getting that updated and if you need anything specific from me please let me know! Merry Christmas!

When it is time you will need to request again. This will give everyone a equal chance of getting on the list. The first 4 people will get on the list and I will post here when it is time. My estimate for starting requests is mid January.


The rest of the tools showed up Friday and I have them installed in their holders. This week I will edit the programming to make the old style tips. After that I will start the programming for 1/8, 4mm and 5mm hollow cores. As I complete each type I will post pictures.

Yay so exciting!

The lathe will make 1 inch comfort tips again.

I have a little more work on the old styles. Then I will start working on the hollow cores.

Just beautiful! So glad you have it up and running and so quickly toooooo

 

[whokrz]

Thanks
Today I didn't have work and was able to play on the lathe for 8 hours. All of the old cores are complete. The 1.0 inch and 1.5 inch comfort profiles are finished. The other old styles are easy to edit, so I will edit them when they need turned.
I cleaned up a lot of the programming so it is readable and got the 1/8 inch hollow core half way finished.
Here is a 1.5 inch comfort in jelly roll.

Another beauty!

 

[whokrz]

Thank you
Last night I finished up the first prototype of a 1/8 hollow core in black and white acrylic. It needs a few minor changes and the programming cleaned up.
Pictures from work as I test the new tip.

Tonight I finished the 1/8" hollow core. Here are a few pictures of a 1 inch HC for a DID turned in sandstone.

 

[aikanae1]

Love that shape!

 

[darksparkle13]

Gorgeous! An always!

Holy cow!!!!

 

[whokrz]

Thank you

I am happy with my new tip, it is really comfortable. It's slender but has the same bore as the original. I am going to be sad if it breaks.

Work and the shop are very hard on tips. My other hollow core tip is made of acrylic acetate and survived. My new lava tip took it's first nose dive out of my lap today and lived. So far the lava material seems to be durable. If my tip was made of inlace acrylester or a brittle tru stone it would have broke. I average about 2 days with a hollow core in these materials.

I really need to get a device for use when I am watching TV. Then I could enjoy fragile tips too.

 

[choochoogranny]

Well, that calls for a little Santa gift for "fragile tip TV watching", Lewis.......Never, ever to be moved from that spot.......next to your favorite TV watching chair. Merry Christmas!

On the left is a hour glass made to fit a spheroid turned in fire nebula
Two on the right are....yeah they don't have a name, but need one. The top half is the same as the hour glass and the bottom is similar to a comfort.
Original comfort is in the line up to show how slender these new tips are.

Tomorrow I am heading up north to visit family and will be back on the 1st.
I hope everyone is having a great Christmas!

 

[emmsma]

Oh! They are lovely. Will be chatting with you in the new year for an hourglass of my own.

 

[Ponchik]

Very lovely tips. Can't wait for the shopping. Happy Holydays.

The comfort hour?

Whatever you choose to call them, they seem to be calling us! Lovely whork, whokrz.
