Okay I'll stop now. They're just so damn cute.
I just want to squeeze 'em. I love that mouth nose area of the tigers and all that purplish pinkness.
I used to make these things, we eventually coined them Willsacks (because initially I made one for a friend with a sick and dying kitten named Will). They wore as a crossbody sling but were a pouch type thing so you could go about your day with a kitten strapped to you. Inside the pouch. I made so many of those things after the original Willsack. Now I just say I lost the pattern so I do not have to make anymore. Unless someone has a sick kitty or puppy. then I will make one.

I need help! I just bought a second spare Pico 21700!



Now my question is, any nice new MTL/ Restricted DL singlecoil tanks, up to 25mm, that would pair nicely?
There’s lots of good choices.... what tank do you have on your other pico? I’m MTL/rDL too. Do you lean more towards the MTL or DL side on airflow?

OK, here's a post I've been sitting on for a few days before offering up. This is a big call out for an amazing member here.

End of last week, I got a PM (and this is why I waited to check with the member of this was OK) from @Asbestos4004 . He noted I've been toying with trying a squonk and had posted about some squonks on sale that I thought might be an easy buy in to find out if it was for me. Long story short, he offered up some squonk stuff he was no longer using and wanted to send on to me. A little back and forth and I decided to accept. He had already packed it up and got it out by 2 day priority mail to me as he was heading out of town and didn't want to miss the postman. I'll admit I felt a little funny accepting but he was sincere and I was really touched he had paid attention to my interests in an area I hadn't explored. On Saturday the box arrived with this and more.

He sent me in like new condition a 67 neo, a Haku Venna, sitting on top there with a wicked coil in it, a krma, the goodie bags, 2 brand new VTC5As, and a bottle of his own DIY juice.

What can you even say about that sort of generosity? I can't tell you how much it meant to me to have someone I met on an online forum be that considerate and generous with essentially a stranger. Sure, we've had fun posting back and forth at times as we have sorta the same sense of dry humor but to send all that??

I am eternally grateful for this gift. It was sent with sincerity and received the same. If anyone ever wondered about the kind of people who make up this forum, well, this is vaping at its best.

Needless to say I haven't put it down since I got it. I've found squonking easy and delicious. I love it takes a minute or less in the morning to have a fresh wick. I can even fill the bottle 2 out of 3 times without needing a roll of paper towel. I love I can disassemble and clean up this mech squonker with zero effort. I'm sold on squonking. If not an exclusive vape, something that definitely fits in my daily vape routine.

Thank you, brother! I can't think of someone doing something so nice for me in, like, ever (OK, aside from my daughter). And for the record, your DIY Vanilla Nuts is outstanding and I will steal that recipe from you.
Yes I agree. The kindness of strangers helping strangers astounds me quite often. A wonderful thing.

Rain AGAIN in Georgia..big sigh..I think it has rained for two weeks straight. Could be worse I could still be in California and dusting ashes off my car. I am now on my new Dell computer, learning Windows 10 (what was I afraid of?) after two, yes two, bad refurbished ones, I just bought a new one.
I am scratched everywhere, hands, arms and even face, from handling 4 seriously feral cats and kittens that were dropped this morning at the clinic for spay and neuter. God let me know I am home (despite all this rain) when he surprised me with these wild felines in the park/pool area of my new subdivision. There are others feeding them but no one was stepping forward to spay/neuter so I did. I only own one trap and could only borrow one other. Because there are 5 cats I had to shuffle them from trap to carrier to cage in my garage and this was not easy (even with welding gloves on) I did catch 4 and the 5th will have to wait. They come home tomorrow and I will keep them in the garage for a few days while they heal up.

Need some help...

The mother in law booked a plane ticket to visit us for Christmas. I tried to figure out what I could do to reduce the permanent foggyness.

Thought to try MTL. The last time I did MTL I was still regularly visiting my bank, sears still has a Christmas catalogue, and I was driving a '95 Lumina. It's been a while and i've never tried MTL rebuildables either.

I pulled out my B2K and it just sucks. It sucks so much. No flavour, thin vapor production, super finnicky. I'm wondering if my coil is too big? 26/36 NI80 6 wrap. I think it's .7 or .8. I have some 26G Kanthal and 25G NI80. Any builds I can use with those round wires that would help?

Should I buy a new RSA or RTA for this to work properly?

Trying to convince the boss I need a billet box so I can MTL while her mom is here, but I think we're footing part of her plane ticket so the budget is not there.

Here's the arts & crafts so far:

Problem i'm having is I chain vape all day long. Big plumes, all day long.

I work from home and my work station is in the living room. When she's here i'll be working all day at my desk and i'm not sure a pod would last.

Uhm ... perhaps some 6" air duct pipe with an inline fan, leading to a nearby window?

When vaping, or even smoking, around others who do not, there is always a compromise – and usually by those who are vaping/smoking.

You know your mother in law best – what are her views? What will she be doing while you are working? Can you move your office to a non common area? Or perhaps making a non common area something she would feel more comfortable staying in for a prolonged period of time. Will the wife/GF be home? Perhaps they can go shopping while you work.

The translucent are on 24hr ship at 3F, add as many as you want to the cart and be done with the running around or calling local shops, it's just that easy... :thumb:
Authentic Vandy Vape Clear Squonk Bottle for Pulse BF 80W Box Mod

ePacket is the default shipping method there and if you buy 4 or more bottles you don't have to pay the $2 for ePacket... :lol:

Thanks again for your response. This morn I actually found a Canadian retailer on the other side of the country selling clear VV squonk bottles. Was also in communication with another retailer over an aftermarket bottle which I am not against providing they fit and perform the same sans the odour. Think I will give the aftermarket a shot and make a decision based on its performance. But the info I’ve learned from both yourself and @dom qp on ordering from China was educational. And it may come in use sometime in the future. :thumb:

Personally I'd buy 2 cheap pod devices and make do until she leaves. Start practicing self restraint now so its second nature by the time she arrives.

I agree.
Had an infinix that worked well until I washed and dried it.
Tried the eleaf iwu, liked it but it died at 2 weeks so I returned it.
I'm using the suorin vagon and enjoying it, oh and it has a clip for pocket etc..

Remember to up your nic and pg in the pods. I'm using 12mg 60/40 in all of these without issues. Salt nic hasn't worked well for me in the ones I tried, but could be good for you.

Infinix and vagon I can recommend as cheap devices. I use them at work so I dont fog up everywhere I go lol.

There are alot out there and should work well once you nail the nic strength you need.
Then when you step outside make it look like a fog is rolling in.
GL.

Are you saying the B2K V5 sucks, really?
 
Quick question here, does anyone know where a desperate man can get his hands on a Therion bf dna75c? This mod is driving me crazy! I'm starting to think I'd have a better chance of finding a unicorn in a snowstorm. Are they simply no longer available? I don't have classified access yet, any in there?
Quick update, a really nice member on here has one he's not using and offered it for sale. I can't wait to get my hands on it. Thank you @JamesDMad
