Always be a thinker and have that entrepreneurial spirit..I truly hope you find your calling as I did years back. It was so very rewarding and it’s nice now to reflect back..
I’m only 59 and albeit my health isn’t so good I still keep in touch with many of the people I worked with..

I had a silk scrwen business a while ago. It lasted for a couple years. I was young and let it slip away. I am smarter now and there are ways to supplement income in lean times that weren't available then. I have made some lifelong friends from work. I am always looking for opportunity. The industry isn't what it once was here. The love I had for it is slowly draining away.

Don’t think I would use the mesh it suggested... regular coil and rayon in the chamber I believe would work just as well... couldn’t imagine taking 25 minutes to build then having to tweak it.
Would be doing it with a 5 lb sledge after that and get more satisfaction

Mesh is what you need! Blasphemy to use anything else in a genny with the exception of EkoWool, SS Rope or Al2O3 (Sintered Alumina) wicks.

Dimi has a good tutorial.


Don't follow this idiot, it takes him longer trying to stuff wick down the hole with a piece of wire.
Sliding the glass off was probably too advanced.

 

[TrollDragon]

Hmm.
Maybe if I'd waited I'd saved $20.
Not sure about it but is what it is.

Need to get off my .... and clean the Luxotic and make arrangements with Troll to send off. I've been busy, in a funk, lazy.

Next weekend promises to be interesting.

On a fun note. My boys went to see Buffet last night, youngest made an Instagram post. Buffet was the first to like and comment. Ethan was on cloud 9.

Anytime you're ready!

Just watching half of one of those videos makes me say I'm out 25 min to roll the mesh alone no way after about 10 I would be in my car on the way to whoever came up with the idea house to introduce them to that skinny part of a fishing pole, then shove a fire extinguisher up their and set it off. If you do vape mesh I will say it now you are much more patient than I am, so go you

I assume he meant Jimmy Buffett

Thanks!

 

[jfcooley]

Thanks!

I did. Buffett and Buffet seem to be indistinguishable for my phone.

Absolutely hate autocorrect and this forum. Only place that gives issues.

sounds like I need to curb my linking.you could just flip it.

Dimi’s Video was the one I saw when originally searching.. the mesh wicks you show are nothing like what he was showing. I like the look of the atty, but there are so many more that are less pains to wick and build that unless I’m bored and near death and my inventory of attys lost to a Mt. visouvius eruption I will just look and let it serve as a reminder to investigate more before pulling the buy trigger. There’s a reason it was only $10.00

GrimmGreen has a vid using cotton for the Kraken, last half is showing the build and wick.

Yes, it is a good morning the yellow ball of death is hidden behind rain clouds @stols001 laying around on the couch can still be useful, I mean the poor couch could get cold and feel useless.
