Stupid question... You guys do C. O. D. for car deliveries there?

Last time I had a car shipped to me (from Germany) I had to pay €800 up front or they wouldn't even load the car on the truck?

BTW, zvesda also means star in Czech :)

Sitting down, facing forward.
I'd suggest the "PUF" payment system....pay up front.

We do live in a sick world when you can't protect your own property for fear of being arrested for "harming" the poor perpetrators.

It does look like assault to me, with a deadly weapon. I'd definitely go after him, legally, both for what he did and the money he owes you, plus the expenses involved in recovering the money.

Not in law enforcement but that looks like assault at least, with a vehicle involved it could be considered much worse I imagine.
Assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault and then what ever charges for the attempted theft.

Woofer,

I am positive that it is assault with a deadly weapon. If assault is pushing someone on the shoulder then butting someone with a car is assault with a deadly weapon - PERIOD.

@ AMD call any lawyer and they will meet you at Denney's in a heartbeat. You should have called the police on the spot but with the vid your Golden.

Rayon wicks = more in the coil, less on the deck.

If you thin the tails enough you can.

Plume viel clone



Look, the rayon is drying still vaping

You can see the white pockets on the deck tails are paper thin.

All my drippers: Atomic, Magma, Veritas, Quasar, Origen V2; I run a single, horizontal coil. I run the tails just long enough to reach the bottom, or close to the bottom, of the deck. I trim the tails at a slant from the end to the coil, with the tip at a point, and take off about 50-70% of the material.

For my drippers that have the coil close to the deck like the IGO-S, Trident, ERA (Squid), and A6 I still trim the tails the same, laying across the deck a little bit.

I use this wicking method with both rayon and KGD cotton with great results. No extra wicking material is needed, just enough to transfer the juice straight to the coil.

Thanks! How do you guys prevent leaks when filling up the juice well? The veritas is designed so the juice flows away from the airhole, but the Vertex V2 doesn't have any sort of design to prevent leaking.

Wow. I can't remember the last thing I paid c.o.d...

Actually I do! 5 years ago I ordered some electric stuff from Germany by fax (the store doesn't believe in Internet / email etc) and I was expecting back a pro forma invoice but instead I got the package after like 3 days with the invoice inside to pay per bank transfer... I was like what?

Most of my drippers are the side airhole design that will leak if the airhole is pointed down, so I'm used to vaping with the airhole pointing up or to the side. Just a matter of habit. I only use my drippers at home, tanks for pocket use.

Ah, I see. I'm still trying to work out the kinks with my first tank so I've still been taking my drippers to work. Once I get the tank working just the way I like it I will probably leave the rest at home. The only problem is, even with rayon, I'm not getting the flavor I want from the tank. I'm not sure if I'm wicking wrong or if it's just because I'm moving from flavor chasing RDAs to tanks.

Yeah, I kind of accepted my on-the-go set-up won't equal the flavor I get at home, though my KFL comes close. It works out fine for me as I've never been that picky about what I'm vaping when out; it's mainly for the nic and at home vaping is mainly about flavor. My KFL gets to use up my less-than-spectacular juices :)

Only way is not to drip too much, or don't tilt it to air hole.

I for some reason haven't tried it yet, but you could take some rayon wick and pull it thin, and layer the opposite side deep in rayon over your main wick.. Like a few thin layers. Trim the layers to fit. Wet it down and they won't move.

You should be able to wick well from it if you bring the layers over by the main part if your coil wick. So they touch it as close as you can get pull some strands across. You just kinda paper mache it... This may work great. Give it a shot, let me know.
