Random DIY mixing and More

[ShowMeTwice]

Thanks. I've never ordered from either one of those. But, the pulled flavors sound great, so I may give one of them a shot.
Any preferences between Chef's versus Nom Noms anyone?

I've ordered from both with no problems. Just placed an order at Nom Nomz a few days ago for some of the other new Flavour Art flavors that aren't being sold here.

First a huge big - THANK YOU - To @JCinFLA, especially for keeping people updated. . . . Really appreciate Everyone's well wishes . . . Mainly going to continue to be lurking, consintrating and writing a post is very difficult . . . Still trying to get to some form of normal for me . . . Very tired most of the day and trying to get use to all the new medications . . . Thankfully, I dodge a bullet for now . . . Yet to find out what it was. . . . Either Congestive Heart Figure or I was a candidate for Dialysis being one of the other possibilities . . . So We'll See What Happens . . . Just Sayin' . . .

Slacking on mixing. Been messing with tanks. Chocolate Ice Cream in DL Dvarw and new Amarulu in MTL Dvarw. Is yummy also.

One of the best flavour rta's IMO....what do you think?

No changes
Here's Highwind's original ATF post - Bantha Milk

Here's the ELR post I adapted and made no changes to.
I checked my adaptation and it's the same as Highwind's original.

My DL one has 3 different size tanks.

I only ever use the 6ml tank on all my Dvarw's....too much filling otherwise

 

[charlie1465]

I guess I’m a tad weird. I’m MTL but love my air.

My wife Veronica is the same she MTL's on a Dvarw DL....she says it's perfect

 

[charlie1465]

That's why I say I like "loose" MTL... can't stand "sucking a golf ball through a garden hose" (but some people want really tight draw) I've actually got more into "restricted" DL now (but have both and switch up often) My Silverplay RTA is so versatile because it can do both (and has different airflow inserts) It also has great flavor but is tricky to wick and likes to leak (like after sitting all night) I got frustrated and put it away for awhile... going to give it a try again this week-end. That Dvarw sounds very interesting.

You can't beat a Dvarw or two....I've got 12

I had good luck with Rob Fisher's Exocet method right from the start, @FranC. No leaking even with thinned-out rayon tails. @ShowMeTwice posted the video earlier, I think, but here it is again, just in case:

That's how the Silverplay is designed to be wicked but one guy does the "dam" method instead (I haven't tried that yet) I actually have two Silverplays so might try that on one just to see if it works.

 

[charlie1465]

I’m going to try that next time. I tried the other method and I’m getting a little popping after it has sat a while unused.

The Exocet method is the win IMO....

With the Exocet wicking method it helps to leave a little tail on each side and spread the cotton out making sure there are no gaps on the wicking holes. You need to make sure it's not snagging too when you screw it back together as that can move the wicking and leave a gap

Morning Randomers...

Going to be pretty hot today but nothing like some of you guys are experiencing. More mixing on the cards and I want to add something to Fran's ice cream base... haven't decided yet. It's had nearly 3weeks steeping so should be nicely rounded out...might do some painting too.
Scan went well yesterday...no lesions on my lungs... relatively good apart from the COPD. Off to my lung specialist at the end of this month so that's good.

Hope all is well out there

Well I guess it'll destroy us too as our AC once again quit working and they can't come out until tomorrow. Gonna be a hot night - she is talking about going to her daughter's house just down the road but I won't go. Plus we have the dog Izzy!

It's 104 at 7pm and 85 in the house. Have fans running but this is brutal and frankly I am sick of going through this every year.

I really really hope you got a hotel room last night!

As a beside, are they checking out your lungs because of surgery or are you having problems?

I’ve never had a problem with Chef’s. I placed my first order with NomNomz and it just shipped.

I ordered from them on the 3rd before the holiday and it’s in the US already. Should have it in a few more days unless it gets stuck in customs.
