Printed DNA30 Bottom Feeder

[Sumratio]

The printed parts from sculpteo, are they pretty decent plastic? I use a 3D printer at work a lot but the material we use for the most part is on the brittle side. I started the verification process and will be following the thread. I would love to get in on the next parts purchase especially if one is put together for the new dna 40.

I hope I'm not out of line for asking this but...

Can anybody identify what SVA used as a bottlecap-tube-connector thingy? It looks almost like a female rivet piece, its the metal washer looking thing @ 18:34 in this vid SVA Review . I would love to use something like that in this build, or find one that fits the Vapage VMOD XL bottles. It's been hit or miss trying to properly seal those 9ml bottles.

Drill an 11/64" hole in the vapeage 9ml bottle and it seals nicely.

I've done that on all of them. My problem is the plastic threads arn't air tight and I have to either tighten it down with a lot of force or use an oring that can slip out of position. Like I said, it's been hit or miss, sometimes it seals just fine, and sometimes air gets in and it gets hard to squonk fully. If theres an off the shelf rivet (if thats even what that is) that would fit and seal better I'd rather go with that. The rivet (?) also gives it a very slim profile, and I would open my search up again for a 12ml bottle.

Edit: I've been using the 9ml bottles for over 6mo, so I'm sure theres some wear on those threads with that soft plastic. Either way, that rivet (?) looks like a better seal.

Just finished reading over 240 pages of this thread to prevent me from asking anymore stupid questions. I am now cross-eyed and ready to order some toys. Gdeal thanks for the awesome mod to get me back into modding mode. And thanks to to rest of the community for all the added input, pics and tips.

Does anyone have a pic of the 9ml bottle setup?
Do I just buy the bottles and drill a 11/64 hole and I'm good to go?

 

[OthatGuy]

That rivet in the video is custom piece of metal turned on a large prolly. I dunno if it's designed for that application or it just works but it's almost definitely made for that .call him up n see if he'll sell them.

Yep ... pretty much!

I drill a smaller hole from the inside out first with a bit that fits inside the flange in the top cap. Then with 11/64 widen the hole drilling from the top side down through the flange. This helped me get the most centered hole through the flange area. I also clean up the bottle top to help ensure a good seal.

What's in that pic? In place of your tube?

 

[TyCreek]

I use SS tube into my bottles. That picture should link to some other pics.

I've been following this thread for a while now trying to build up the courage to attempt this mod. Is there anyone building these mods for members with less talent and skill. If anyone does please PM me so I can spend the vape budget burning a hole in my wallet.

Is there a list of atties that support bottom feeding or can be modded for it? Or more specifically, is there a "flavor chaser" atty with bottom airflow like the magma that supports bottom feeding?

 

[KurrptSenate]

most people rave about the nuppin' which can be obtained through pdib's thread

any atty can be modified. I believe Chowder (sorry if I got the name wrong) sells modified attys, mostly clones, that would accommodate you

if you have access to a drill press, sky is really the limit for you

Go check out this thread http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...-supplier-forum/581604-catfish-atty-mods.html

He usually has a variety of bottom fed atty's in stock, and will modify one for you if you send it to him. Nice guy, good prices, and great work.

Can anyone confirm the size of the threads on a 510 connectors. Ecf says it's 7x.5 I think it's 7x1.5 ...Anyone know for sure?

 

[DejayRezme]

The pitch is definitely less than 1 mm

I'm wrong, metric pick is opposite standard. .7x.5

I was able to source a new DNA40 board so I don't have to be without my favorite mod while waiting for RMA with Evolv.

I got the new board soldered in. I do NOT want to have to take the internals apart again, next time (should I be so unlucky) I will do a whole new set of internals instead. I was able to get it apart without breaking any of the pieces but it was nerve racking the whole time.

To be back in vaping nirvana made it all worth it though

If anybody knows kickitback from Jwrap, maybe we can have him make some wraps for this mod? So we aren't limited to spray paint for color options.
If Gdeal provides the CAD dimensions, I am sure they can make the wrap template for it and cut any stock for this mod.

Or just buy a sticker and cut it out with a razor, it's pretty simple. I buy vinyl from a car wrap guy on amazon, works great, dirt cheap.
