Western Union has pretty reasonable rates for transferring too, I'd also be interested in postal rates to Poland too please

The juice coming out the short wick by itself I wouldn't mind and then the air bubble could expand and escape fine. There's 3 takeoffs though, and while I hope to be pretty full at the beginning, somehow that bubble is going to get bigger each time.and it would be good if they still work when I get there too
I'm thinking that "air bubble" is smaller than the amount of juice in the wick hole through the cap. Volume of a cylinder maybe 5 mm long and 2 mm in diameter? I don't think there could be air expansion more than that and probably a good bit less. So I don't think it will matter if you use a short wick or not.
Hi Brazilleo,
knitwear can be found in cartomizers. The classic with cotton wool (Green Smoke, e-cig E9, old 510, etc).
Before use, they must tan over a flame and rub with your fingers. In order to allow a bit.
DIY kits WillPro 14 not look, is home to find himself
But if you want a couple of them vacant.
Ah ha!! The old sock from the cartomizers. I did that by accident a while back based on your 'paper' suggestion before. They do slip over the wick real nice. But I remember being uncertain if it was safe. Thanks for tip of pre-burn and finger rub.
Turbo, I'll spit the postage with you mate if I can get hold of one too?
Brazilleon :
This is how the spiral (used vitreous knitwear), which burned 75 ml Liquid. I changed it to 104 ml.
After filling smoked just rinse with water and burn.

asdaq : Shipping to Poland: 18 USD
Wow, your post office is worse than ours
Is that for a bubble envelope sent as a registered letter and not a package/pakiet?

Well I just ordered 10' of this:
Nextel Braided Ceramic Very High Temperature Sleeving
It is a ceramic sleeving, will be interesting to see how it works compared to silica. I found the vitreous sleeving under the name Refrasil sleeving. There is a company that has 1/16" sleeving and 1/16" braided rope here:
TMO Braided Silica Sleeving Products
I am gonna try the ceramic sleeving first and see how it does. Always good to have a resourse, and try different things.

So what exactly is the reason to re-introduce the silica braid here? Does this affect flavor, and go backwards with the idea of getting away from silica?
I believe the problem with ceramic is maintaining the porosity. And getting stuff that wicks well before it clogs shortly thereafter is difficult.
Hi all,
I finally finished making WillPro14. Serie A has 60 pieces (for now). Beautiful view
michal,
I checked out everything on the website in your signature. Looks extremely well done and with full disclosure of all the specs. Also, it's just extremely beautiful. Thanks for sharing you hard work with the world!
I would be willing to go in on this with you and Turbo as well to defray postage to the states and make it a three-way split.
Not everyone agrees that ss mesh alone is the whole answer. Michal is part of a team working on a modified wick solution that has good results and satisfied folks too. You should browse their project website, google translate will help you with the language barrier.

Thank you for the compliment. I like to inspire people. WillPro is copied around the world. Russians copied it in bulk, but it does not matter. If it helps at least a few smokers, so I will be satisfied.

Well the sleeve acts like a buffer between the SS and the Kanthal. Without it you have to oxidize the SS and even then you must fire the atty while moving the coil until it also oxidizes so there is no shorting between the two. With the sleeve, you are using a small amount so there is no oxidizing process for the SS, just roll and go. I have not tried this method yet and have new 901 cartos I do not use to test this out. But I saw the ceramic fiber sleeve and though hmm might as well take one for the team. the good thing about the ceramic is it can take higher temps so I could literally burn off any residue. I and not really concerned with the wicking ability since the SS mesh will be doing that, just so long as it will saturate with juice from the SS. We will see when it comes in. I will only be using 1/4" on the wick so I have 10' comming (smallest amount) so I could make 240 wicks sleeves with it LOL

This is not solid ceramic, it is looks like the silica sleeving (woven). Since it is braided I dont think it will clog up any faster than the silica. Plus it takes higher temps so I could burn the residue off with a butane tourch.
Let me at least try before you nay say. Have you used it? Are you baseing this off experiance?
Dan
I think that's one and the same. How long do we have to wait for results? (is it done yet? is it done yet?
)
Well let's hope it works, Then we will tag you for some,, As I see it, if the wick only needs changing every 2 months, you would have a 40~ish year supply.
LOL I was doing th math on the 75' of Kanthal, If I replaced the coil every 30 days it would last me 37.5 years at $4.05 LOL now that is savings! If I was doing that with a 510 atty everymonth, I would be looking at approx $2250.00.
