Hope the store comes up sometime soon cause I misplaced my bag with the little round black things :blink: and think mine is going cause I see some little black bits in my juice. Is it hard to change them out? I haven't really looked into it to closely yet, sense it is not leaking.
Actually it is pretty easy to replace the black o-rings - just pick the old ring out with a toothpick, then take the new ring, pinch one side and make a small circle, just press that into the indent then push it down and around into the indention until it seats. Hope that made sense.:toast:

Thanks going to go digging in my stuffs box again to see if I can find the O-rings. Should I go ahead and change both or just one if the other seems good? :facepalm: Oh forget that ? I wont be able to see which is bad so will do both. Provided I find said black things. Thanks again Logjam.

I mostly stalk this page for info on when new BBs will be up for sale. Always fun/good to see when DD posts on progress made and troubles overcome.

I wonder whats going on with the RBAs that were being worked on.... I got myself a Diver to sand down, but was looking forward to grabbing one of the other ones too.

Slowly gathering my items in anticipation.....

i've got 2 divers. the plan was to sand one down and use it in the bb, but honestly, i'm having great luck with boge cartos lately. this thing was designed with simplicity in mind, right? i'm loving it with a 3 ohm carto (one with 2 nice sized holes, like you get from electronicstix or the new IKV ones) at about 4.5-4.7 volts.

...plus, i'm not quite confident in my rebuilding skills just yet. its kinda hard to make a 2.6 ohm coil or higher for the Diver... but I'll get there.

Well good luck to you in snagging one when they come up. I just hope to get a couple extra tanks and the fixit packet. Seem to have lost my little black rings someplace. OOOOOHHHHH if I would only get organized maybe this wouldn't happen. LOL

I'm with you on the boge cartos. and the simplicity of the design. It keeps every thing to a minimal amount of fiddling to keep ya happy.
That's a good part of why I love it so much. Wow ya only need 2 holes in yours. Mine needs 4 but the punch I have only makes small small holes.

some type of update,,,,

i'v been sick, REALLLY sick... and turns out i still am... i'm not the healthiest sack of potato salad at the best of times, so this was just insult to injury, but i thought i was getting happy better so decided to fight through today, bad move.. anyhoo, just gonna pop in here really quick then go to bed couch... I took some pic's how the delrin tanks went week before last,,, but i'll have to share later. they worked out though, and nice (well i'm happy with um anyhow..), they when out for assembly and i think i was told they are all ready (or mostly are ready, cant remember) to go.. wife lady said last night that the merchant account is now all approved, the payment gateway thingy is now in activation mode, and what i think that means is once it is activated we should be a 100% up and neat-o. But once it is all activated, we may take the store down for a day to test all the check out bs to make sure it runs right.... Ohh- and we added fed ex as another shipping option so that should be better for international'y folk that have had BS using government type post.

ahh, never mind, i'll see what pic i have on my phone,, it's just sitting here and my gins not all in me yet....

Ooooo, delrin'y...


this is the first operation for them little buggers.. the raw stock for um isn't very nice on any one side like the PETG, so that's another reason they need machining on both sides, not to mention it's about as dimensionally uniform as a potato.


managed to snag just a hairs amount of life out of the jig that didn't work, i just didn't have it in me to make a new one right now, so managed to change the vacuum material to something that will work temporarily until i can suck it up and make a good one.. anywayz,,, see the little groves milled in the thingys? that's what i hoped would let ya see the juice level through the opaque material.... (bear in mind i did'nt know if it actually would at the time of this pic)


test time. nickle mesh carto btw...


neat-o,, not only can the level be seen well, but you can even see bubbles rise from the carto hole with a thumb push to the face, better than i could have hoped for visibility. yaayy, i win... take that universe.


regardless, i find the clear ones way cooler looking, but heck, if you vape tank crack juice there just flat an't no clear plastic gonna bee 100% bullet proof that i know of (and i know of all of them).. at any rate, i'v had this tank in my box for bout a week with some cinnamon juice from hell, and this honey badger don't give a $!t*. actually, i think i may call this the honey badger tank? ehh, i'll sleep on it...


well there's some other pic on my phone too, umm, here's some brass thingys..


and here's Ruby doing some things that should be done on a lathe but that she can do just as good cuz she's super bad a$s.


another pick of her doing the brass screw threads, see that end mill shes holding? fun fact: that costs a lot of money!


and another pic on my phone, just a bunch of them little contacty things i was puttin together for nightshift to make boards with.... and that's it for phone pics...


k, not even going to touch my pm box,,, gins gone, i'm done.... if anyone needs me, too bad, i'm sick leave me alone...
