That's what I was trying to say... badly...
No worries...
My huh? --> Was to the other post, not yours..
Hope you have your BB soon.. You will love it!
Your frustration is understandable as it's not an easy mod to get and is often sold out within minutes. Try getting one when are you in Asia timezone when the stock is often released 3 to 5 am local time. I live here and I got two (one directly from BB and one from secondary market). So, it's achievable goal to get one without paying flipper price.
But coming to the modder forum and advocating clone???? That shows serious lack of good judgment and, perhaps, lack of class ...
Owning a mod is a privilege not a right.
Was thinking this would be wise and and not worry and baby this beautiful metal box.
Seriously, you're not going to hurt it!
I've had mine a long time, and all I have to do to get it back to looking new is use a little Mother's on it.
I have zero plans of babying mine. It is a tool. It was designed as a tool for a working man by a working man. To me it looks better with age. I have no problem tossing this in my tool box with other metal items clanging against it.
If anyone noticed, head up there in isn't trying to obtain one for himself.. He clearly says he will pay 250 a piece for them... Meaning he wants more than one.. Meaning he is trying to be a dolphin (catch that reference?) IMHO a flippers advocating clones of a mod in the modern forum should .....
Seriously, you're not going to hurt it!
+++1 on the Mother's...great stuff.
Honestly, if you'd been trying to get one for a year and a half, you'd have one already. The first big pre-order back in December 2012 was open for days.
It's already pretty remarkable that DD has been pumping these things out consistently for the last year, and at an extremely reasonable price. There's a new boutique mech mod out every week that sees a couple runs of a few hundred units and then disappears forever. Unlike those, the Billet Box is unique in its form and function. It's a wonder that so many people are able to get them, given the demand.

Please excuse my ignorance, but can one of you explain "Mother's" please? I'm guessing we're not talking about milk, and I'd like to know...
I believe they are referring to Mothers Billet Metal Polish.
Actually, I use this one...

Get the smallest jar they have. Auto supply, Walmart should have it. It takes just a very small amount.
Thanks, but circumstances of my life require delivery. The UPS guy knows me by name, and Amazon thinks I'm their controlling shareholder. Both versions are in my cart right now. I'll do an "Eeeny, meeny, miney, mo" at some point, then pull the trigger (so to speak).
Thanks EVERYONE, for the knowledge and support. It is GREATLY appreciated.

I will PM you my number. Use it!
I've gone through around 10 tanks before recoiling my v2 Diver using the v1 pin and what I consider the appropriate amount of wick in the slots (cotton, but I believe it applies to all wick types). I had one gurgling incident, which I vaped through by raising the voltage and taking a handful of drags. I rewicked the cotton every 2-3 tanks. No leaks from the Diver, a few times I had juice on the back of the tank, but the Diver 510 and bottom of the tank were dry. I bought the tiny hex set Akdare recommended, and tightened up the hex bolts on the BB tank. Since then, I only had juice on the back once.
One more interesting point. I noticed the rubber fill port ball was always wet. Yesterday, after rebuilding the Diver, I toyed with that rubber ball with the tip of the plastic syringe. After a few presses inward and sideways, I heard a small "pop". I dried it off with some 99% alcohol. Vaped half a tank of Ahlusion Strawberry Vanilla Cake afterwards. I have strawberries growing out of my ears.
Today, that rubber ball is utterly dry. Before this, I would clean and dry it off using the 99% alcohol, and it would always be slick after a bit of vaping.
There's more info coming on how to build properly, but that's Akdare's baby, and she is still testing, and I'm not going to steal her thunder.
I used some 99% alcohol to clean the ball bearing, followed by olive oil to lubricate. I hadn't realized mine wasn't moving, and how much residue was on it. Thanks for that suggestion!
