Everyone has had this question on their mind if they are a frequent tank user.
Personally I punch my cartos, for one reason... thats the only way I have ever known.
People claim, "Punching distorts cartos." and others claim "Slotting creates metal shards that will lead to inhalation of metal flakes."
Both of these arguments are valid. If you punch a carto too low, it will not seal right and you have now successfully ruined a cartomizer. When you slot a carto, the dremel wheel cuts away at the wall and creates metal shavings/debris. Where do those shavings end up? are they inside the carto? could you in theory end up inhaling pieces of metal?
What is your take? What do you do as far as preparing a cartomizer for tank usage?
