Speaking of the contest, I just realized my post doesn't have a "Contest entry" header, although I use the words "contest" and "ship name" in my post - should I edit and add this? I am always reluctant to edit on a contest entry. Seen some ugly results from that.

Nah, no worries, you're totally good to go :)

I've had a couple people ask what I use for a mod, and if I could suggest other mods.

Sorry, but I first started making mods because I could not afford one and so decided to make my own, and that little hobby turned into this. (And now mine cost as much as the other ones I could not afford myself, sorry!).

The only other mod I've used is a Madvapes 5v mod and some cheap-o 510 gas station types. Sorry, but I am anything but an expert on other PV's out there.

As for what I use, I use a Mark-8, the first one completed during the first batch. This is what it looks like after 6 months as my primary mod. I've dropped it a few times but I have carpet everywhere and only broke off an atty once. I just gave it a cleaning and wax & buff so I would not embarrass myself.

Black Walnut and Cocobolo;



I set my voltage at about 4.5v with a 2.2 ohm Titan (Totally wicked) atomizer. My daily vape is a 50/50 mix of 18mg Cinnamon and menthol. I get those from Vaporbomb and Bluemist respectively. I've never ever really liked any other flavor of any type although I've tried dozens and dozens.

Hello my good friends, old and new! :) I've been lost at sea for quite a while, did not check the forum for a bit. It's been a busy period here in Italy, changed job and city two times and now I'm planning on the third act of the play!

To Cappy - Sorry if I let you down last time I reserved a Destroyer for myself, but I've been REALLY busy and had to sort out a lot of things in my life lately. Did I say already that I moves two times in just over a month?

To the rest of the crew - Hope to catch you soon on the usual pages.

ime I've already thought about getting a second job just so I could buy mods. I want so many, but can't usually afford them, so getting anything has been slow going.
lol yea, i think i have 8 mods altogether right now, and if i could i would have about 8 more.. but as of now im broke! lol

She looks like she was made out of bloodwood now, not padauk. Has it had alot of exposure to light?

I've not been able to find a chunk of bloodwood big enough to make mods out of yet, looks great imho.
