Nice which one are they?

Thanks. The Solo was supposed to be green, and to be fair the box does say green, but I have seen that color called teal shift on some sites. I added the stained glass bit myself. The gold one is the Designer edition. That's the Geekvape logo stamped all over the leather. I missed out on getting the gold Zeus edition and this is the only other gold I could find.

Yiihaaa...the first of the tobaccos I ordered from the US of A has arrived. Yeah those ones I thought would be taxed and dutied to unaffordability at customs. Yeah Yeah...those ones I was ready to go to parlement for...to state my case that i'm not a smoker...but a vaper...YEAH those ones I want to make NET juice from ;)
Somehow the first two went through (3 more to come)...don't know if it's undetected or because of the mountains they have to work through because of Covid. Anyway I feel honoured, lucky and VERY happy. As you gathered...it's a big deal as my vaping future hung in the balance...:D
Soooo feast your eyes on this

Yipee kai yay, damn good job. Really pleased for you, the cost of tobacco here is just OTT, must be the highest tax in the West. Here is the happy dance for you, have fun when you start making those Nets.:banana::banana::banana:

LoL i'm still dancing here to..:lol::lol::lol:
I forgot to mention. Best of all is when it dawned on me that I might not get the tobacco through I posted my dismay on one of the NET threads here. A lovely man (never even talked to him) from the US then PMd me to get my address. He's sending me extractions he made already...how damn cool is that?

My Buddha Inbox panels arrived today. An almost unbelievable 10 days to my door from paying FT.

They feel solid and heavy - chunky almost. The base is aluminium and the front has a thick, hard shiny transparent coat over the picture. Really nice for AUS $8 the pair. One is slightly paler than the other but I doubt it'll be noticeable on a mod.

    I absolutely love the artwork you did :wub: I misread teal shift as teal sh*t and wondered why it was so sh*t. Sorry, long day working in mud and a fair bit of sh*t ;)

    love 'em and 10 days is fantastic. I checked and no kiwi expedited air damnit. But after my last 2 international vapemails each took 55 days - I have nearly learnt the art of patience, maybe... :blink:

    As further proof vapemail is getting back to normal, my vapeciga drip tip order found NZ today, after only a month :banana:

    Um, no. That's a stained glass fabric I had laying around. Not my design. I just did the upholstery.

    Sorry about your day.

    I work in mud and sh*t every day, the joys of farming :D

    how did you attach the material? as I'm sure others would also be interested in doing something like this

    Got the idea from this guy. Because I was using fabric I fused a backing onto it to firm it up some. I didn't pull the leather off. Wasn't comfortable with that. Wrapped the material around and traced. Whole thing took less than 5 minutes.

    I have a "green" Solo as well. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened it and found that teal shift color instead of boring old green.

    I like what you did with the "upholstery". Maybe someday I'll give it a try myself.

    If you ever need something from FT in a hurry you can send it to me and I'll express post onwards to you (I probably won't keep it :evil:)

    How do you find them. Do they restrict the air flow much?
    What I found with the ones I made (from ss mesh) is they tend to saturate with liquid and then starts gurgling.

    I haven't use them yet as I have been avoiding the gurgling, back spitting and leaky tank :lol:. I will test them hopefully soon, no point on my tigon tank since is restricted already due to small airflow.

    They look very unique and elegant :thumb:
