So I spent some quality Luna time and am happy with my end result. The finish feels super smooth ans a nice satin low gloss look, I wasn't going for (or could really achieve with what I have) a mirror finish. The best part is it's still working just fine. I have these before and after photos, but it's hard to capture the surface difference in these phone photos, so use your imagination.

Now.

I think the colors certainly pop more, and there are some soft reflections in person. And the more I handle it with a chamois the better the buff will come out.

All in all I'm happy. Now for a black atty with a dark green DT.
Eskie...looks fantastic....I can imagine the actual finish as it's virtually impossible to capture it with a snap. You'd actually need a studio setup with various lights and techniques. It's why I had to take a video....in fact mine looked similar in a photo.

I think the whole point about a proper finish on wood is to bring out the grain and you can see that in the photos and also the colours.

Guess what...one thing led to another and I didn't do mine :( It's scheduled for tomorrow :)

Actually, there is one more issue to contend with.

Happy Vapor Day, shiny fam!

I'm having Boo Berry for breakfast. Got a few gallons of juice on the way but that's about it so far. There's no sale to take advantage of for what I want for my next mod so I'm not under the gun to decide. I'm thinking something from Russian Custom mods, though. Either a SHRTGUN, a Mordor, or maybe both if I can't decide on just one.

The SHRTGUN

The Mordor

It's a tough decision. Whatchu guys think?
I think the Mordor just has it too :)

That'll polish up beautifully. With the resin pop and that great blue, it'll be amazing.

I always thought about that elder dragon. It looks weird, but there's something tempting about it. I worry about a whoosh effect the way the airflow is directed..

It is whooshy. Downright whistly even. I have to tighten the af more than I like, and not draw very hard. Might just be my imagination but either I got used to the noise or it quiets down once the the inside of the cap is funky with juice. Either way, a better second day vape than first day. Flavor is good and the deck is easy.

This just in....it's a side by side and I love the design. Chip goes to 60W and the one fire button does all adjustments. It's a bit of a pain changing the wattage but that's with me guessing how. I'll read the manual later :D

What do you think?

I love stuff like that. The design reminds me of 80s tech.

It looks like a beauty. How the one button does everything seems challenging. It appears there's some sort of cutout opposite the tank side, where I imagine the battery is. Is that just a funny angle to see that area?

Hey shiners I just found this short protection device for mech's. It will make your setup taller and lose you something to voltage drop but quite a good idea for those who are worried by the hybrids....interesting.

Serisvape Miracle-Atomizer LED Device for Short Proteciton/Low Voltage Protection/ Reverse Protection/ Battery Power Indicator 24mm - Silver

What in the world is that? So you screw that on top of your mech tube etc and then your atty into that? I wish there was a pic of the inside I’d like to see what’s going on in there. I may pick that up, shame it doesn’t come in brass. I wonder if 2F will trip my card’s fraud protection like Fastech did.:pop:

Anyone ever use one of these by chance? Wonder what the volt drop is looking like.

I'm doing good.. just one maintenance inhaler is all I'm on.. but it seems all I need and is helpful I think.. :)

I'm back to vaping with nicotine, just 3mg but been a little stressed so yeah for vaping! haha..

I'm worried about telling my doctor.. haha I think he might get one of those judgmental looks since I've been doing so well. lol

but all in all, all is well.

I'm having a baking day today. I'm making a dozen homemade rolls for each of the people on my husband's team, since tommorow is their last day, so I'm up to my elbows in bread dough atm.. lol..

Since it's their favorite thing we thought it would be something nice for everyone, and I'm going to make some sweets for everyone to eat also on their last day there.. cookies I think..

It's bitter sweet, we love them all.. but we will see everyone here and there in town and such.

It's a good day. I love baking.. :)
Nothing like a cake to make things a bit better :)

Good to hear you're doing ok and lovely idea baking for the team. Enjoy yourselves you deserve it!!

See you when I see you :)

You know I'm almost positive we have done this specific shopping before...

Did you end up skipping this purchase a couple months ago?

maybe it was just me shopping and I forgot everyone in the shiny thread wasn't involved.. lol.. because I'm certain I've done this shopping before.. haha
