I am getting more and more into ready made coils too. And hardware for them. Just bought a DRAG S and it has the teeny tinniest RDA thingy in it. I looked at it and was like NO WAY. My daughter, who always had me build her coils, assisted and I built and she was the eyes that installed. Last RDA I will attempt. I also just had to buy some pre-made's for a new Steam Crave Aromamizer Lite. I have tons of pre-mades but things were not looking like they should (at age 60 this happens) finally with help of other shiny folks I realized I needed counter clockwise wrapped coils. I mean can things get any more difficult?

we all lust over what we want and sometimes enable each other to buy it
I had to buy the RBA for my drag X separately and I made a .3 ohm coil in it easy but trying to get it to wick properly is so difficult it just made me mad after enough dry hits so I went back to the premade .15 coil it came with . Best coils I ever had for premade this has lasted me almost 2 months and around 20 -25 thousand puffs. Still tastes great and I’ve even had it fire in my pocket a couple times enough to burn my leg and still didn’t need to change The coil. I’ll try the RBA again eventually but I have quite a few coils now because I bought two extra pods for it that each came with two coils and an adapter so it will fit on any mod

I am still using the same coil mine came with! I am shocked at how long it has lasted. I just bought 3 packs of these coils from EightVape based on how well this initial one has done. They are .2 instead of .15 though

    Today's victims of wanting food and going in a trap to get it. Feral cats on their way to vetting and then no more pro-creating. They will be released tomorrow back where they call home. The poor orange guy Creek has a nasty wound on his leg and I am going to pay for a stitching up and anti-biotic shot. Praying he does not have FIV>

    My “he’s a full grown mix” (not lol) is up another 5 pounds, an inch taller and still has visible ribs. That makes 13 pounds in three months. Looking like I’ll have a giant dog to go with my giant cat :wub:
    but what a handsome guy!

    well my day/week/month was just ruined. Those sweet babies I trapped and took to the clinic for vetting are both FIV positive and the care giver opted to have them PTS. I get it. FIV (cat aids) is a terrible cat disease with no cure and even though the disease itself is not a death sentence, the immune system gets so compromised that kitty gets sick a lot. The reason for the nasty unhealing wound on the leg off the orange cat. He also had a mouth full of sores so no doubt was in pain. I have to remember he is in a better place now but still so dam sad. Cat rescue work is hard on the heart

    Thank you :wub:
    I couldn’t find the file with the stepping stones I did for others (aka put actual time into). These are in my yard (poured down right after the lawn guy left so a touch soggy). Some are over 20 yo, and have lost a stone here and there. The ducks eye is awol :(. Then, three I did for a fundraiser at the last minute because they neeeeeded items. (The Scottish girl is reverse painted on clear glass.)
    The table you could easily do. I bought a “glass” top patio table on clearance at the end of the summer and put the pieces on with mosaic glue. The bead edging was to keep the bartop acylic from running off while it cured.

    I’m so sorry. I know rescues are always a gamble, but I’m so proud of your doing it over and over just for the success cases. I couldn’t bear it

    Sorry to hear. I’m worried my little bunny friend at work has been killed. My little shadow I’ve known him since he was a baby and he would come when called and let me pet him. He was so sweet and now I can’t find him and to make matters worse I found some skin with bunny fur on it that looked like his fur over by where I usually found him :(

    Hope it’s not him.

    This is probably my favorite, and one of the first I did

    All beautiful. So you have used stained glass pieces to make a mosaic picture then. Really creative and beautiful

    Oh, so sorry......I used to rescue cats way back in the day and FIV was barely heard of, but cats were dying. I've had a few that had to be put down. I admire your tenacity still doing this. It IS hard on the heart and MY heart hurts for yours...but, thank you for doing what you do.
