[04 Raider Rider]

Got my Masterwork Alien today and vaping as we speak. Really like it so far,has a great feel in the hand.Vapes well and for me the only issue so far is getting use to the button feed.Man this thing looks soooooooo good,I don't think anyone will be disappointed with a Masterwork.
For the REO Grand owners,the Artisan is a touch smaller than the Grand,and I think for the $$ a DAMN GOOD DEAL ! Nick lives near me,so I've seen these things in person
Will try to post pics tomorrow.

raider,
do you think maybe it's a matter of needing to soften the bottle up some to get it to feed better with the button? Maybe massaging it or submerging it in hot water. I have also noticed that with most bottles they do have a "soft spot" on them. I don't know just an idea.
Curious as to why its an issue.
Unless it's just because its "new"
thanks

Blue Coral should hit the mailbox Monday or Tuesday.
Oh, signed up In guestbook too.

 

[supsandroid]

Oh man here come the masterworks!

 

[04 Raider Rider]

No,I think it's just a new system to me.My other bottom feeders have the squonk window,so I think I just need to get use to the button.
Those are good suggestions though,and may try that if it's not just a learning curve for me.The window on his Artisan mod works well,and that one also feels good in the hand.Damn this Alien looks awesome sitting here

Sweet! You'll love it dude.....it looks real,real nice!

It might just be that your not used to it. The first time I got a bottom feeder that didn't have the window in it for feeding I thought it was going to be more difficult. I opted not to use the hot water trick that I suggested just because I get a little paranoid about plastic and leeching. I did however hand a couple bottles to my wife one night and had her massage them while we were watching a movie and BOOM! Works like a charm now!!

 

[Woodsmith]

I always massage mine before I put them in. There is definitely a "soft spot". If you do not like the feeder button Raider I can make a nice window for you to press...

Two More Masterworks going out for sure next week. Starting on Upstates, Elliots, rhammer19's, supsandroids, and Ron's.....should be some fresh pics by the weekend!

Also got some cool t-shirts coming, I was gonna give a few away for a contest thingy later. They say "Quit Smoking. Start Vaping." at the bottom.





ps:
Do you still have that green bike Raider? I didn't see it in the garage.

 

[04 Raider Rider]

I'm sure that's all it is.I have a half dozen bottles with various juices for the Grand sitting around.Maybe I'll try some of those if I still have problems,they're the same type bottle.
It's not a design problem,anyone use to a button will be fine.Did I say this thing looks good

Thanks Nick,
I'll keep you posted.I'm like you,I think I prefer the window and I really don't think it would take anything away from the look of the Masterwork.Maybe you could make that an option for people on the Masterworks.

That was an '04 Vengeance Raider.I sold it last spring after I found out I had lung cancer to help cover some of the bills while I was going through therapy.A very nice North Carolina highway patrolman from Reidsville bought it.He's having a ball with it ! And my cancer is gone

 

[upstatEpuff]

I'm looking forward to mine even more now!!! It wasn't a big deal when I ordered because I knew that there were a bunch of people ahead of me but now that I know I'm next in line the wait is going to be agonizing!!!

 

[Lazerrred]

Will try to post pics tomorrow.

PICS. Is it Monday yet. !!!

 

[04 Raider Rider]

Ok ,I'm not a very good photog,but here a few pics next to a REO Grand for size comparison.Sorry about the glare on the Alien

 

[Chelseafn]

Wow!!!! Nick and Raider!!! It looks awesome!!!! I knew I should have ordered a masterwork!! That could have been mine!! Oh well next time. Nick I want the hole in the door please. I have anther mod with that button and I dont like it. Prefer the window!! Thanks. Yes unsure I will post pics when I get it.

Looking good Raider.I hate to sound like a beggar but could you post a pic of the inside/ feed system as well?
It's cool if your not able to right now, i'm just curious as to what the guts look like along with how the feed system is set up. I know I have read it before but I can't remember how Nick has it set-up.

 

[Lazerrred]

I see the Aliens eyes. Nice..!!. It looks not much bigger then the grand at all. Looks schweet Raider. Congrats.

 

[unsure]

Wow Nick you weren't kidding when you sais its smaller than the Wood REO.

@Rider
Great comparison pics between the Masterwork and the Grand.

 

[04 Raider Rider]

No problem,I'll get them tomorrow.It's a needle type set up.I think Nick said like the Phid's.The inside is nice and clean.The battery is what seems upside down with the spring on top,positive end of battery down.I don't say that's a problem,just different.As a signature maybe

I have a 3000 mah Ultra Fire in it and it vapes like a champ.I forgot to ask Nick about why the AW 22-2600 mah flat top.Preference maybe,and he does include a nice supply of spacer magnets for using them.Also a couple bottles,some tung oil,a little carry bag and I forgot to take the pick sitting on the nice piece of what I believe is rabbit fur ! LOL,sorry Nick.I don't know these things.I was never a hunter,but a nice touch to wrap it with for delivery

I have to be honest,I think I'm going to get an Artisan for work.I like the size and feel of it a lot.

 

[Woodsmith]

rabbit fur yep, let me know if you are an animal rights activist and I won't send you one....I can post some detailed pics of the feed system. It is VERY simple. The mod operates using rails..which conduct the electricity. There is only about 1.25" of wire in the entire mod. Flat top bats should be able to use with the spacer magnets I provide.

The rail on the top is also the negative lead to the connector, so naturally the spring is on the top....doesn't really matter though.
