very nice, I really like the way you get a smooth flow from the pipe body to the end of the stem.

Hotu Matu'a riding the Kon Tiki has arrived in the new world. The journey from Rapa Nui was treacherous but they fought through. Very comfortable in hand and the 18650 battery is good for all day.
I'm new here, and a decently skilled woodworker. Can you tell me what hardware is on the pipe on the right, please? That is *exactly* the look I imagined making for myself!
Hey guy's....I thought I would give you little preview of my "K-pipe".....A Kicked version of a e-pipe.
It comes with three different bowls for a 35;50;or 65 battery...Set up to run a mini v-nova or a slim DCC tank...Plus a extension for the shank....Made out of Spalted Peach Wood...Oh...and a long stem...I know you will like that
Now the GOOD, the BAD, and the UGLY
The good... the Kick makes for nice vape....My setting....about 7 to 8 watts....
The bad....You had better keep all the contacts clean or the thing will Tss..Tss at you like bacon frying...Plus the ground spring disconnects for no reason sometimes...Tap the side of the pipe....and off you go again.....
The ugly...If your building pipe or a mod....Better have all your parts laying on your work bench before you start.....That way you don't have to go back and redo stuff....I knew better.....
Hope you like it.....edit....That adjustable center post...turn it all the way out and the Kick pops out.....It's a tight fit in the bottom bowl...
duckie.........

Duckie, man, brother, compadre, that is brilliant! I love the modularity in battery sizes. Plus, that little hole for adjusting the Kick on the fly is a stroke of genius! Some really great innovations there, plus, a really sweet pipe!
Duckie, that is a fine pipe design there. Are you planning on selling these? If so, sign me up!! Looks great
Tez..."you make me blush"
...No genius here...When I dry fitted the Kick, It became apparent, it was going to be too hard to get out....Same reason for the hole for the center post...I thought about the "Crown" when I started this, but I'm deaf as a fence post.
Tez I like this concept so much, I think, I will maybe build a few more pipes using a Kick....
I had a few ideas for using Z-max board....But it looks like MadVapes is going to be "out of stock" forever....Just as well, My vape/pipe building budget is shoot to hell after this....
duckie......
Sorry Big....No...I don't have any plans to sell any pipes....This is just a hobby for me....How about the next best thing?
I do plan to post a show and tell in the modding forum for anyone who would maybe like to make their own....

Yeah, I could see it being pretty hard to pull the Kick out of there, especially if it goes in upside down. I find that in all of the devices in which I use a Kick, it pretty much lives in there permanently, though anyway. That's a very cool solution to the issue! I'll definitely look forward to seeing what else you come up with!
