Pyrex/Quartz tube genesis, and other wick materials.

[ajventi]

Hey guys, I'm a fairly new vaper, and probably going to get into genesis rba's with my next purchase.

I'm also a fly fisher and fly tyer. The recent idea of using the 3-mm capillary tube with a ss wick on a genesis came to my attention. And I wondered if SS was the best wick for the job.

Now I'm sure many of you have much more knowledge in wicking than I do, but it seems SS was the choice here because it was the easiest material to thread into the small and long tube.

You may be wondering why I mentioned my other hobby as a fly tyer, well may I introduce you to:

The Bobbin threader

It's perfectly designed to easily pull things throguh a long narrow piece of tubing.

I've used mine to on stardust clearos to rewick with cotton. I just figured I'd share.

Leave to the fisherman to figure out new and interesting things!

What is this all about? Why in modding forum? Looks like spam. Better share your fisherman skills in special places.

There is similar for threading needles in sewing, but I can't think of why it is needed in vaping. Even the Cotton Thread Crew does fine with a piece of wire to do the same thing.

Geez what hostility, sorry you feel I've wasted so many precious seconds of your life.

I guess I didn't explain it well enough in the OP, but when I learned of the capillary tubing with a mesh wick threaded through the middle I wondered if mesh was the choice used simply because it was the easiest to assemble. I posted this simply to show people a means that they could do the same thing with cotton or any other soft material.
