By the way, and forgive my innocence, but what is a scratch bush?

I'll explain...

I know I would have liked to have had a few of those, but I bought the serenity gear leather sleeves, to protect mine.

Here ya go @kas122461 ... I think I hunted down the correct materials list from my old bookmarks. You can make you own for just a few shekels.

1. Carbon Fiber Checked Tube Part# 5287T21 @ $34.91 for 1 foot
... McMaster-Carr <--- Part# 5287T21
... McMaster-Carr <--- all tubing

2. Push in Plug Part# 9283K14 @ $12.80 for pkg of 100
... McMaster-Carr <--- Plug Part# 9283K14
... McMaster-Carr <--- All Plugs
(note: the top section of the plug was cut off before assembly)

3. Velvet Adhesive Backed Part# 88015K2 @ $9.83
... McMaster-Carr <--- Velvet

4. Loctite Clear Epoxy Part# 1813A225 @ $15.98 per tube
... McMaster-Carr Part# 1813A225
... McMaster-Carr <--- All Loctite Epoxy

So for a mere $73.92 plus some spare time you can make your own. (he, he you could save some money per unit by buying more than a foot of tubing (price goes down a bit per foot) and using a cheaper epoxy)

But you will have 99 plugs left over for other projects.

No wonder these tubes were so 'not inexpensive' back then.

That was a lot of work you just did.

Oh wait, actually that 1 foot of tubing is enough for 2 sleeves, so the per sleeve cost comes down to $36.96 plus shipping.

 

[MikeE3]

That was a lot of work you just did.

Yeah well, anything to entice / enable someone to spend money on vaping is well worth the time and effort. Particularly Kas, as it was his pictures and praise of the Dani Mini's that enticed me and my wife to buy not 1 but 4 of them in the last month.

Thanks, I copied all that into word, and will look at it later, time for sleep.
