taking the step into DIY liquids..

[paine1031]

Hey all,
My wife and I have decided to take a stab at making out own liquids, however I have a few questions to ask. First let me start off by saying I have read the sticky warning about the dangers and staying safe while working with all parts. So on to the questions....

Wizard labs seems to be the best for flavors, it seems like one stop shopping for everything that we will need for that. Is there others that I'm missing other than buying direct from Lorann or perfume apprentice?

I thought I would get my nic from www.myfreedomsmokes.com as they seem to have a good price on 125ml for 7.99. We will be looking to make a 6mg juice, do i got and get the 100mg nic or should i get something with less mg?

Looking for the other bases I found some on amazon, 1 quart of both pg and vg each for 10.95. This is made by Essential Depot, I'm not 100% sure this is good stuff but the review seem to be good. Anyone else have a better suggestion other than amazon?

I figured the bottles and such I would just pick up from wizard labs, sadly they are currently out of stock of syringes.

Thanks in advance for the help

Personally I'd go with BullCity as they have a much better brand/flavor selection than WL and also sell VT nic which is very very good nic. RTS Vapes would be my second choice for brand flavors...very broad selection but no Inawera....

RTS vapes will match MFS price for price all you have to do is contact them via email. I don't mind shopping around for my flavors but I can see why one would want to do it all in one place. Good luck and hope to see you around the DIY forum some more!

Wizard labs just seemed to have allot of flavors. I don't mind doing around for things to get the best prices

You can get your pg/vg from bulkapothecary. Look for an online coupon code there is an ongoing one that always works. I get 1 gallon of vg for 27 bucks shipped. You can also go to walmart and get 177ml of VG for about 4 bucks after tax. Humco glycerin in the bandaid isle.

that is a great deal. I'm just wondering if i need a whole gallon right now? I'm sure DIY juice is addictive once you get into it!

No need to get 100 mg if your mixing 6mg juice you. I use 48 mg to mix 3mg so you could probably do just fine with 60mg

my plan is to cut out nic all together at some point so i will end up going down to 3mg at some point too. thanks for the info
