here we go!
Ahoy all, say, I've been getting alot of PM's & E-Mails asking for the same information.

My website is Redskymods.com. If I have any completed mods that have not been snapped up on this thread prior to finishing I will post them there for sale. Friends of the thread get first pick as a reward for frequenting the RSM thread and keeping things lively here :)

I post pictures of the current batch under construction here and anytime during that process people may 'Pick' one to call their own and decide when I post a picture of the completed mod if they still want it. I will then send an Invoice.

Some of the mods I am building are preorders. I will post a picture of main body wood and end cap woods I have available and the cost of them and you may select from those. There will also be choices for switch types and catch cup types. After you pick, PM me what you desire and we will discuss it and clear up any questions. Then your custom mod will be built during the next batch. Typical construction time is currently about 7-10 days once I get started depending on the size of the batch.

I am currently building the Mark-5.1 Cutlass as that is where the demand is. No use building a mod that just collects dust on my shelf, like most self employed mod makers I sail a fine course between success and disaster.

The Mark-5.1 Cutlass is described fully on the main page of the website. The website contains alot of information about the models I build and also features some video demonstrations and a gallery of past PV's sold to good homes.

The newest Cutlass has a base price of $179 with an added cost if I use an unusually expensive/rare wood.

Excerpt from the website;

Featuring dual operating modes. Direct battery mode to run unit at 3.7V using 18650 battery types and two battery combinations for 5V, 6V, 7.4V and variable volt mode using dual 18350 type batteries.

Standard features;

3 amp switching regulator
200 thousand cycle Stainless Steel switch
Large stainless steel catch cup
Sealed 6 ml feed system
Native 510 atomizer connector
Digital Voltage display
On/Off switch
Dual mode switch (Direct & variable voltage)
Voltage adjustment tool (mounted to inner door)


If you desire a VV mod without all the electronics (Dual mode/Switches/Voltage Display) to save money, It will run you $139.

As for juice feeding, all the Cutlass mods can be either Upright or Tilt & shoot. The only difference is if it has the 2" flex tube inside the feed bottle, with the tube is upright, without the tube it is T&S.

I have designed the Cutlass to use any make of two 18350 or single 18650 batteries that I know of and provide magnet spacers if your battery is significantly shorter and needs them.

All mods have a 7 day money back, 3 month warranty on parts and labor. If I can't fix it I will also either refund your money or build you a new one to replace it for warranty problems.

Hope that answered most general question :p

Thank you for the information, I love the ease of bottom feeders, I can fill up a 6ml bottle and it will last me three days easy just change out the batteries every morning.. I like the Pro Vari also for the VV factor, but to combine the two would be awesome.. I was looking into getting a Woodvile but alot the users have problems making the 3.2 volt batteries fit in the mod.. I rarely vape under 5 volts, so it looks like the Mark 5.1 Cutlass just might be the ticket!!

Also, there are a couple of mods that are on sale this weekend that might be worth considering.

Arrr, I've been asked if I had anything else to offer, especially if it is more inclined to people on a budget, so I took a look on the shelves and this is what I came up with.

#510 is Bocote with Cocobolo end caps, Basic VV with voltage display. The On/Off switch did not work so I bypassed it and put it on the shelf. Also I noticed that the coating on the LED is a bit thick and although you can read the display it is kinda dim. It uses a linear regulator for power and 2 x 18350 batteries. SS switch and Large SS catch cup.

Note: best offer by end of weekend gets the mod unless someone grabs it for the price listed :)

Price $139 or best offer;

The other is a return for a leaking CC and buyback. #436 is Basic VV, no voltage display. I retrofitted a large SS catch cup on it later and on the shelf it went. It is the first one that I contoured for fingers. I stopped doing that as I did not want to step on Brad's toes. It also has rounded edging. Wenge with Mulberry end caps and inlay. Linear regulator and On/Off switch. The squonk hole is a bit large than usual as well and mounted on the right side. 2x18350 batteries.

Price $135 or best offer;

Yo ho!

my marblewood is in excellent shape today, it is very humid an she is nice and tight! To treat her well I will be getting a humidor as in the winter the air get's very dry over here and by doing that the tight fit will be there all year around. she can rest at night and be abused in the morning ;-)

Adorini Humidor Torino - Deluxe - Humidor Discount: Nr.1 voor sigaar humidors

That actually sounds like a good plan. More than once I've had a mod returned because it had warped or swelled in transit and I had to get it back and sand a bit more wood to make things fit again. Also a good healthy coating of Howard's feed & wax or other similar wax might help keeping everything sealed up tight.

p.s., if anyone with a RSM is unhappy with it for any reason, shoot me a PM and we can talk about solutions, I'm not perfect and ..... happens so please don't hesitate to contact me :)

Yarr, I got my Feed & wax at home depot, great stuff.

As for reviews, it seems I've narrowed the playing field down to Cutlass 5.1's and the Buccaneer 3.7V/dual battery mods now and the two Buccaneers I made last batch are still sitting on the shelf. Also sales bottomed out on Scallywags, it seems most people want a bigger battery mod. I just may start making nothing but Mark-5.1's for a while.

I will make another video of the 5.1 when I can, that is also the model I am considering sending in for a review, maybe. :p

Cappy is mine a Cutless 5.1? I'm not even sure what I have!

Yup, any dual mode is a Cutlass 5.1, but you also have a prototype "p". After I was done with the prototypes I changed the numbers from P5##, to 51## (5.1##) that way I can always tell at a glance of the number what basic model it is.
