Red Sky Mods

[Capt' Brian]

I'm amazed you are able to part with any of them.

Heh, for many weeks after I started making these I was still using my madvapes 3.7v plastic mods. Later I got my hands on a returned Scallywag (I'm still using it). Not too long ago I had a Cutlass that had the LED fail on it so I took it for myself rather than replace the end cap. Now I have another one that works perfectly except it is bocote and when I was routing the rounded edges one of the knots (they give bocote the cool looking black swirls) got tore out leaving a pinky sized hole in the side. So I will fill it with filler and finally have a mod with all the bells and whistles for meself, arrr

Didn't mean to babble, I'm a fast typer. I was clocked once at 105 wpm years ago.

I'm amazed I've survived without my Cutlass these past few days.

There's your next contest Cappy! Whoever can beat you in a typing contest wins! I imagine 105 wpm would be difficult to beat.

They will go out in the mail tomorrow, you will have them soon

Ack, the taste of my scallywag with a titan just changed drastically. These things taste great but after only a few days use sometimes, the coil shorts out like a light bulb and it burns the juice. Great atty, ....ty lifespan

I have #204 Misty..old school RSM..got to love it.

Yay! Blue and Marley, home again!

The Volt is nice once in a while for when you just miss real ciggys - auto battery, shaped like a cig - but it just doesn't have a satisfying hit and while I do like my mini, the 14500 battery leaves much to be desired. I've been spoiled by my Cutlass and I think I'm gonna need a Wench and a Skallywag for Christmas this year.

Airborn was kind enough to send me some tanks so I could try them out and I haven't even got to mess with them yet! I don't have anything in the house that I can use them on atm. Looking at the way they work though, I'm fairly confident I'm going to want a Wench to use them with.

I use a misty with my tank setup, works great.

Hmmm, I do have more than I mentioned before. I have a Misty with a tank, a scallywag with a titan, a Buccaneer (the cedar one) I retired for a more efficient regulator, the reject cutlass and now a new cutlass. Guess I'm finally getting a stable of RSMs of my own.

When you began....you did it right..

is Misty a Scallywag?

The first mod I made was a Bandit, simple 3.7v 14500 box mod. Next I made a dual 14500 5v non feeder I called the Misty. Then came the 3.7v 14500 3ml bottom feeder Scallywag, then the Buccaneer 18650 6ml feeder.

you have worked so hard and continue to accomplish

I like knowing the history of my mods. That's cool.

ps. I love the tip in your avatar Slot-Tech.

 

[Capt' Brian]

Well, I think I made 10 Mark-1 Bandits, 8 Mark-2 5v Misties and was then convinced that feeders were the way to go. Looking at the feed systems in use by others I decided to steal a simple method of liquid transfer from my old navy days and made my first feeder and haven't had to change the feed system since. (I see some others now use this simple method now too which is good).

I made 22 Scallywags and then moved to the bigger battery Buccaneer and made 50 of those before I was caught up in the VV tidal wave so next came the Cutlass VV.

Now it seems Tanks are becoming the new rage, arrrr

 

[Slot-Tech]

I think the reason the avatars got smaller was facebook seemed to take over..
fconnect at the top was not there before the change avatar wise

I got my first tank a few weeks ago and absolutely love it. I have a hard time with atties, and always use cartos. Even on my feeders. I love your feed system though. The size of the wench just makes me happy.

You have a very special RSM

I would have to agree.
I should be getting the wood for my destroyer Monday. So the Capt' will hopefully have it by the end of the week.

We will have time. I've pretty much decided I better do a small production run of all the new layouts to make sure everything works as planned before I do a preordered batch. That way I will eliminate the added stress of deadlines and I can use whatever materials I wish to during construction. If it all works out I should be done in a week and may even have a handful of mods for general sale, or not, if I'm a complete idiot and nothing works right. Then I will just do the next batch the old way, yo ho!

It will also give me time to lay in wood and hardware supplies to support the new batch.

 

[cba191]

lol. That's ok. I don't need or want a rushed job. These things take time.

 

[Capt' Brian]

Well, night watch take over, ol' cappy is heading to his pit. Night all.
