Why do you have smoke? Are there wildfires nearby?

I'm sure skunky will answer soon.In the mean time,most likely it's from Cali.Should they be out of trees by now?

Well my packages came today. I got the Recurve and Gear, and I also got that fasttech order with four randomly colored resin drip tips, and one SXK Krma clone per @Eskie 's advice for flavor banger.. we will see if I agree.. lol.

Tommorow is sleep in do nothing day, so I'll probably build when I'm done sleeping in.. I've got that Kennedy I want to try out from @Skeebo too.. may as well make a day of it!

I'm trying to choose among the 3 16m Black Version Dvarws after a search this mention :
"one SXK Krma clone per @Eskie advice" made me think maybe how you chose between physically similar Dvarws?

 

[Pigs]

Well my "metal tube" finally arrived.

I've never purchased a 16mm dwarv, I have no need of them so I wouldn't begin to know..

All my mods happily accept 22 - 25 mm toppers without issue, and I'm too old to strain my eyesight without good cause.

Sorry I cant help you.. but if I were you and wanted one I would just purchase one and see. Certainly wouldn't hurt anything..

Good morning shinies

You might as well change your location under your avatar from LV to surface of the sun

And maybe change the avatar to a singed Skunk.

There are quite a few fires in Southern California right now. We went out to Pahrump and it's bad there too. They just issued a health advisory here. I took a couple pictures. The sun looks creepy.

Thanks 4 the response.

Did you ask in the tootlers thread? Also the discussions in the ft forums are great.

Thanks. Someone on fb posted this pic of the Creek Fire from an airplane.

I think it's where we are getting all the smoke from.

Oh wow!

Thanks, I will take a look. I trim my wicks right-handed today and my scissors actually worked well, but I found it is not safe for me to be trying to use sharp objects with my right hand.

Edit: Btw, why are the shorter scissors more expensive than the longer option? That is weird.

There are scissors made for left handers. People ask for recommendations all the time in my craft groups. Amazon has loads of them.

maybe next time.

if i find v2 on sale(don't look hopeful)got mine for 15.just one build so far on the og.it does get hot if chain vape,thought it was from my massive coils.will be trying other coil but maybe winter it will be welcomed.

I’m not using massive coils - I use very simple claptons around .3ihms and it gets very hot. I’m looking forward to trying the v2 see if it helps. Maybe I should try some simple single round wire at around .4 -.5 ohms. I’ve got the afc wide open too. Might help with the heat.

I've got to say, after a couple days of use I'm really happy with the mtl fl. The flavor is not quite there with my top squonker toppers, though I may need to play slightly with positioning.

That sxk mtl fl top fill at $13 does look interesting, though based on dimensions I'm thinking it's a 2ml. I've asked a question on the product listing, capacity and whether it also has jfc (the photos look like there's a bell cover piece).

Glad you are liking it. I plan on trying out my MTL FL in the next couple of days.

Help! Our power is going to cut tonight due to winds/fire danger until probably Thursday so no time to search in depth. I'd like to get a few more justfog minifits but can't find any at a reasonable price, If anybody knows of any I'd love to know too. Thank you in advance for any help.

We've under that smoke column shown above but reasonable north of the fire itself. Is Calif. running out of trees? Sort of. We lost 150 million of them due to drought/bark beetles some years ago. Over two million acres have burned so far this year and we aren't even to the normally worst part of fire season yet. Those dead trees are part of what if fueling that fire, the Creek Fire. Sadly, will not be surprised to learn people have already lost their lives in that fire, not to mention thousands of animals.

Not a closeout price but perhaps not bad:

JustFog MiniFit Pod Kit

They only have silver and bronze left and they are 12.95 each..

Sourcemore has a better price using code MNF, which makes them 8.86 each after discount, but only bronze is in stock.
