Ok I admit I'm a junkie. I've studied the "art of motorcycle's and Zen" Now I got the conformation that my new Z Atty pro has been shipped. I'm not really comfortable with this new shipment yet. I've been practicing on my Chobra's and have had some decent success. I guess I'm just a PV junkie. Is their a cure for this. I hope not. But it sure will be pretty when I get it.

All over the place
The coolest thing about the Zen line-up (as far as I am concerned) is that they come set-up and ready to go. Add some pre-oxidized wicks and your straight. Maybe a little tweak of the coil to avoid hot spots (though mine had none) and you're all set.

I guess you're now going to have to check out Zen and the Art of Zen. ;)

Nope, no help for PV addiction; at least not yet, thank gawd!

Thank goodness. I'd hate to think they had a pill that could cure this addiction. Lol

When it comes to RBAs I learned so much at Vape Bash it was almost overwhelming. I have come to respect and love the toothpick method.

1. Wind coil on a round toothpick.
2. Drop toothpick in wick hole.
3. Attach coil to posts.
4. Remove toothpick and fire coil to set it.
5. Insert oxidized wick and fire, use toothpick to adjust if needed.
6. Add juice.

I just go ahead and wrap my coil directly on the wick, drop it in the hole, attach the coil to the posts, fire it and adjust if needed. The problem I have with wrapping my coil around something else (petar K/drill bill method) is that the wick has to be the absolute perfect size for the coil because if any part of the coil isn't touching the wick, it will give that dreaded dry, burnt, metallic hit.

When I wrapped my first coil, wrapping the mesh wick outside of the device seemed to be the most problem free and efficient way of doing it. Have not tried the other methods, which I saw Phil demonstrate on YouTube, since I have had no problems making a coil/wick assembly this way.

This is the Zapped mini blem. She is wonderful, if I do say so myself.
