I feel so bad for you, and love that you're keeping your sense of humor ;)

Well thanks for the compliment, hon! At this point, all one can do is laugh. lol Its become a farce of epic proportions at this point. Sooner or later, one of these years, I'll have functional vv again. ;) In the meantime I got sucked into a 'show off your wood mods' thread here, and I'm amazed...amazed... at the gorgeous wood mods that are very reasonably priced. I always thought they were hundreds of dollars. So who knows, maybe end up with a wood vv. I'm dying to get my paws on that steel lava, though. As are we all. rofl

Ya, I was subscribed to that one for awhile but I kept drooling over that wood modded Provari and had to quit :lol:

Hold on, i'll get the link to the wood mod thread in here in a second for you guys... btw, Bostons... I KNOW!!! The gorgeous wood provari! Incredible! And he did that himself! lol talent...mad talent. But I did just ask for some links in the wood mod thread, and they gave me some with some incredibly low priced gorgeous wood mod options, so might be worth taking a second look... even if, like me, that Provari is so far out of your price range as to be laughable. But gorgeous! Anyway, I'm really interested in this redwood burl mod w matching wood cone.. so cool and curvy!.. I think its a fixed 3.7, but there are tons of vv options. My fave vv in wood so far is the 'weird wood vv'. Anyway, I'll be back with a link for you guys who wanna check em out. I always assumed wood mods that gorgeous were in the multiple hundreds. Not so... gorgeous stuff for like $50-$79.

Here's link. I wanna say the links to inexpensive ones are back a page or two, and the showcase wood provari is back about 5 pages. Again, that wooden provari is just for drooling purposes, unless you can do woodwork like the guy who modified his. But some others are uber inexpensive, and gorgeous!

Ah, here's the picture. That thing is pretty damn cool haha.

I'm not too big on wood, but it is very nice, I can agree with that. That woodwork looks pretty well done, I may be able to make a "sleeve" to go over the provari pretty well, but i'm not sure if it's worth the trouble lol. I love the black provari....want one...really badly.

The new lavatube is actually stainless, and is a brand new model..here is a pic

Photo Gallery

they extended their backorder and said that the price may go up so I went ahead and ordered one, as I am sending the lavatube I bought a week ago back (button issues)

I have to say, it looks pretty badass

I could be wrong, but didn't I read it was a 'she' that sent the Provari out to someone to have the woodwork done? Post #121....

I'm aware of that now, AFTER they sent me the email. But, being that I wasn't interested in a kit, I never went to the kit page. I wanted the mini tube only, so naturally that is where I went, and where I ordered from. The point is that when I ordered, I had the full expectation that the product I was ordering was in stock. There's nothing on the page I went to that would lead me to believe otherwise. In fact, it even says "Availability:: Usually Ships in 1 to 2 Business Days " even when you select the SS version.

Ok, very cool. Someone in this thread or the other thread where I beg for photos of the stainless posted that image the other day as his silver lava. I told him that was what I was hoping the stainless ended up looking like, and that the silver I thought were a light grainy silver powdercoat... kinda like the black and magenta/red. Whew.. yeah, those do look mighty cool. Glad I've got one ordered, and will just pray it shows up soonish as opposed to later. And really hoping they've got some of the funny button issues resolved in the steel model. That and end caps cracking (guessing that won't be an issue with the steel, though ;) ) are the major issues people seem to have with them. Crossing fingers...
