Ahoy everyone!

$15 and e-mail, well that answers the questions I had, I'm kinda of a 'buy it now' guy, I was looking for stock for sale.

Well, packages should start arriving soon, looking forward to feedback. Hopefully will see a new kit picture or two soon as well, those are fun to look at.

Mine would have been here but I didnt know I had to sign so I missed the mail lady (my mailbox is along way from my house outside a locked gate) but no worries they said I can pick it up
this afternoon @4:15 instead of having to wait til tomorrow.

Sign? Sign? Arrggg, I never use that shipping option, must have clicked it by mistake, sooo sorry....

No worries-my post office is small so they do special favors so I dont have to wait til tomorrow or I would have cried!

Not long ago when I was working for Honeywell, I had to drive to Tampa every day, almost an hour each way. With gas prices shooting up I'm glad I dont have to do that any more. But the drive sure was pretty over the skyway. I need to get out more and enjoy the weather I think.

Arrr... I do !

Well I just got it and it is absolutely beautiful Captain! The pride of workmanship is evident, not a gap anywhere and the finish is like satin. I don't know how you got 2 woods into such a narrow inlay but it makes the
whole mod. I opened the box in the PO parking lot,lol. But the most important part: the vape is unreal, thanks for a great mod! Now to try not to vape myself into a coma
with my bottle full of RY4

I also like how the door fits tight but is still easy to open and no hinges to break!

I very pleased you like it, it made the inlay worth doing if you think it's that pretty, thanks!

Some people insist that the vaping is better with a wood box mod, logically it uses most of the same parts as the manufactured mini cigs, but people swear they vape better.

I dunno ...

Ok, back to work I go, its not me lunch time yet, arrr...

Time to shut down the machinery and do a few quiet jobs, I love this time of the day.

The next batch I'm making is gonna knock yer socks off...

Seeing how I have some perfectly good Scallywags and Buccaneers on the website collecting dust, I'm going to concentrate on more 5v and VV Mark-IV's.

I'm also going to make the default style of the Mark-IV a bit taller, so it can become either a 3v/6v, 5v with regulator, or VV with regulator and I won't have to change machine settings. Production will go a bit faster and smoother.

I will also look into the possibility of adding a digital display, but I have a feeling that without a major design change there is no way I will be able to fit it into my little box. I will probably just start offering a mini digital voltage checker for sale on the website for people who need them.

DIY Kit sales dropped off the planet last week. I think perhaps the few people wanting a kit got them. There are only a couple requests for Mark-IV kits that I will provide, but despite the minor hype, not many sales. I'll keep them around as a sideline I suppose.

Arrrr....

Well that's that's what I'd like to buy in a kit so I could stack a pair of 18350's and use my own VV volt circuit. That may be a bit much though at ~75mm, is that doable?

I believe for many the 14500 has lost it's luster, especially with the demands of LR vaping. You should do better with 18650 kits. Cant tell by the vids but if the your 14500 kit could be slightly adjusted to take a 18500 cell...

Hope you're having a great night Cappy!

Been a long day for AG.

Finally home & straight to bed!

Permission to sleep, Sir!?!

"permission Gran (zzzzz) ted.." oh, never mind.... sleep well.

Yes, the Mark-IV's will use stacked 18350's and will be the size to take them by default. Only one of the 4 configurations will use a single 18650, the rest will use stacked batts.

I should have a few kits ready to go in a couple more days at the rate I'm going, might not be in the requested wood exactly, but I'll offer what I got.

that'd be a nice choice. so people that has a provari could find some other use for their 18500's. there aren't many mods around for this particular batt.

I would have to lengthen and widen the Mark-III box to fit 18500, easier to just make the Mark-IV shorter.

I don't know why I'm calling the VV models the Mark-IV, they are actually the un-named Mark-V. Just to make things more confusing.

Yarr!

Mark-I - Dead
Mark-II - Dead
Mark-III - 3.7V 14500 BF
Mark-IV - 3.7V 18650 BF
Mark-V - HV BF (5v/VV) 18350x2

Well, thats not too confusing ..
