And now I depart to The Land of the Great Unknown. Happy Wednesday, all!



That's so funny. I haven't heard that for a looooong time.

Because he's a dirty old man. :laugh::D:p:lol:


My cerulean writhing specimen I am a dirty old man but still only get to use the shower every 6 months. It doubles as a parts cleaner and there's always a dismantled transmission or a big block in it.

I wished I knew. I ordered a Boro. They couldn't be that bad and if it needs an adjustment here or there to work right I can handle that. Maybe some of the other more experienced peeps here will have an answer for you.
I don't like the tank it come with either.

All you can do is stalk the classifieds. Since they're rare and popular they have gotten quite expensive when they do pop up. :(

Well, there's the Classifieds (but need to be in US to buy) and occasionally a plastic-clear-faced tank will appear on ebay - otherwise, no luck, BB doesn't sell them any more. I agree the Bridge is tricky with the Delrin, you have to do it by feel, and judging by the length of Bridge sticking out at the drip tip end, when the ring on the BVC is flush with the tank. There should be 1mm of Bridge sticking out at top; if there's more, it means the ridge on the BVC isn't seated in the circular trench on the bottom of the Bridge (must be a technical term for "circular trench", but I don't know it!). If you fit it while the tank is resting on its left side, the tank can be half full and not spill (much). Be careful not to push the BVC into the tank though; getting it out is a pain!

You can press the coil into the bridge and insert it like a carto. That's the easiest way.

Over in the By Leo thread, Billy is looking into offering a clear face for the delrin tank. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...6015-leo-attys-mods-drip-tips-tanks-1076.html I got three clear tanks in the classifieds from the same seller but they are hard to find now. The borotank seems like a good alternative, why not try one?

One thing I have found with these tanks, is after you have had some juice in them, they are kind of hard to open, you have a thin sliver of glass to grab to pull them open. I ended up using a cheep pair of rubber gloves, to be able to get a grip on the glass to get it open. I hope that helps someone. :)

Thank you all for the reply and the good tips with the bridge. I dont think i want to trade this delrin tank as i like it. Its only the issue with installing the bridge that make me want to get the clear tank.
I guess I'll have to go buy the Boro. Thanks again everyone!

I guess the fact that I, THE clumsiest person on the planet, can load and unload delrin tanks without batting an eyelash is all the condemnation required.

Go fricking figure.

I wouldn't trade even ONE of my delrin tanks for FIVE clear ones. To each our own, as someone said. Or something like that.

im not that well versed in ECF management, what happens at 15000 posts?

They recommend starting a new thread, because ones that get over 15K posts tend to get a bit wonky with loading.

It's not like it will instantly self-destruct when it hits 15K, but that's the suggested size. Sorta like changing your oil every 3K miles, YMMV. :)

I did! But not as much as Colin and Connie did.
(Did I get those names right?)

:D

If I had 5 clears you'd have a deal. I've got, wait - let me count...

None. I've got NONE.

Hahahaha thought you were offering to get rid of them

Colin and Connie are still love struck and snorting to each other across the valley.
