Red Sky Mods - Part Two

[chet]

I just love that koa door, and that mahogany and cocobolo go well together too.
I personally like the full sized photos better than photobucket thumbnails.

 

[fright88]

Doesn't that go against the temporal prime directive?

(Sorry, star trek on the brain. Having withdrawals after spending 3 years watching all of it and having no new trek to watch regularly.)

I know the feeling. The movies are ok but we need another new show.

BTW great pics Cappy!!

 

[Capt' Brian]

Thanks! I'm working on improving the pictures and I will stop posting thumbnails Chet, no reason for it I guess.


Another ST series would be awesome. I was hugely disappointed with Enterprise. They could have done so much with that. There were even several books written about that time period. It was crap though. I was half way through the pilot episode when the Commodore and I looked at each other, shook our heads and said "what have they done, this is S##T!" Vulcans having tantrums, Klingons are cowards, things don't change that much in a single generation.

I loved Voyager even though some episodes were weak, but at least they were constantly moving thru space!


Don't get me started on the two recent ST movies ....... says a lot about the current state of mind of the creators in Hollywood and what they think the current average intellect can handle...

When I said the lady and I watched it all, I should have said all of it and the enterprise pilot. We had the same reaction to it.

I have a soft spot for the Next Generation crew (Patrick Stewart was an amazing choice for captain and really set the tone of the whole series in my opinion) but also enjoyed Voyager quite a bit. Kate Mulgrew did a great job as well. The Doctor (Robert Picardo) is my favorite Star Trek character of all

Deep Space Nine was underrated in my opinion. I know a lot of people disliked the whole stationary nature of the station, but it did allow for (in my opinion again) the most character development. Of all the times my lady cried while watching Star Trek, the worst of it was the DS9 ending due to her "missing" the characters already. The others are spoilers if you haven't seen them so I won't go into it

I agree on the recent movies. They were a bit off of what I think Roddenberry what have done. They did get a few folks I know into Star Trek so I guess I'd call it a wash.

If they make a new series, I'd like to see it set in the future that they touch on a bit in Voyager. The whole time travel thing could be very interesting. They could also work in old episodes (like they did in DS9 with the original trouble with tribbles episode) and the Q.

Done writing a book. Time to refill the cutlass

I think I am the only person that liked Enterprise. I mean it isn't the best ST show but it was kinda neat seeing the progression of technology and the beginings of the Federation. Also Jolene Blalock is hot and it was kinda neat seeing a sexy Vulcan. The whole cowboys in space thing worked for the show IMHO I mean these guys were the pioneers of light speed travel. This is all JMHO though

While Next Gen was great Voyager has to be my favorite ST show. I liked the concept of the whole storyline and really got to know and love the characters. One of my best memories is of Seven singing "You Are My Sunshine" And I agree with Waho that the Doctor is my favorite ST character.

As for the new movies I personally enjoyed them although blowing up Vulcan really annoyed the crap out of me.

Hello all,
Thank you for your insight. This was a great lesson for a re-newbie. Now for the fun part, deciding on which Red Sky to purchase!
Cappy, what's the best way to place an order?
Oliver

 

[crshsnwmn]

farawayinn, click Welcome to Red Sky Mods - the two cutlass mods cappy just posted pictures of are in the mods for sale section, or you can go to custom mod ordering page to build one of your choice.

Received my box elder flame cutlass 20 today, currently rockin a .7 ohm eight wrap 26 ga coil in a rm2.

Cappy, might want to specify on the website that the two mods posted are dna20 mods - if they last long enough to change it.

 

[farawayinn]

Just placed order for the mahogany/cocobolo cutlass 20!!!!!!!!!

Now for the parts. On the Avid Vaper site the Cisco attys have several options for resistance of the coils ranging from 1.5 to 3.5 ohm. What's a good one to start with?
Oliver

 

[chet]

Any ohm will be fine fara. That's the beauty of the DNA20 chip~!
I'd just go with one in between 2~3 ohm

 

[chet]

oh man.. I wanna buy that Koa cutlass.
seriously thinking about selling my marblewood 5.1...

 

[rtrain99]

Happy Tuesday maties. Someone teasing with a marblewood 5.1 when I just spent my monthly stipen.

I'll take the bullet and buy the Black Rose from you to help with the money situation


(Man's gotta try!)

 

[aidreon]

Black Rose is on the market??? I'm iiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!!!!!!

 

[rtrain99]

Sorry to disappoint but the Rose will remain the flagship of the Pacific Fleet. Got my canons and blunderbuss locked and loaded for any scurvy dogs trying to take her away from me. Arrrrr.

 

[rtrain99]

That was a nice try through bro.

That was a nice try through bro.

If'n only we weren't bound by piratey honor, I'd be thinkin o' stealin' her fer meself!

 

[Capt' Brian]

Ahoy! Man some of you are up and chattin' early. Thanks for answering questions in my absence!

For many questions, I'm not the best source of info. I'm afraid I am one of those people who find what they like and stick with it until someone slaps me and says "Look! This is BETTER"

Spending today doing maintenance and upgrades to the machines, I like doing that


arrr

 

[farawayinn]

OK, now we're on our way. Just ordered some cisco 2.5 atomizers, boge cartomizers, AW batteries and a very cool XTAR vp1 charger from Avid Vaper. Arrived today is an assortment of Nicoticket juice. Can't wait for the new toy to get here, shipped today.

Next question, what is steeping? I don't have an ultrasonic cleaner. Can I just keep them in the dark with the tops off for a few days?

Sounds like you're well on your way to an amazing vape!

Different people will say different things about steeping. Steeping is basically just aging the juice in some manner. Some juice is good fresh out of the mailbox and I know some folks steep certain juices for a year! Tobacco/bakery/complex flavor juices seem to require the most time, where menthol/mint/simple fruity juices are usually good fresh (in my experience, your results may vary!)

Personally, I just stash new juice in my vape cabinet with the caps on for a week or so if it isn't quite awesome out of the mailbox. If it's still not totally blended or I plain don't like it, I have a box in the cabinet where it'll sit for months some times before I try it again. Boba's Bounty is one I know I have to let sit for 3 months before it's any good for my taste buds.

When I DIY juice I'll give it an hour in the ultra sonic and it definitely makes for a quick steep in a lot of ways, but it's not a substitute for good ol' fashioned patience.

 

[farawayinn]

Thanks Waho. Good info on the process. I guess I will try each initially and then over time retry them. Oh, I also got a few cheap clear shorty cartomizers. Maybe seeing the process happening might make it easier to adapt to the technique
I feel like a kid at Christmas!
