wherever I roam
I built my first coil Saturday night live on my show. I'm embarrassed to say there was a significant amount of swearing, frustrated sighs, aggravated groans, infuriated grunts, and wholesale cursing of several people (including but not limited to: Bugs Bunny, Mel Gibson, Zen, Imeo, Pres. Obama, the Wendy's "Where's the Beef" lady, Sylvester Stallone, Sylvester the Cat, Faceless (I'm SO sorry), Johnny Knoxville, the Geico Gecko, and Papa Smurf). I had a few moments, moments I'm supremely not proud of, when I just wanted to toss the thing out the window but, thankfully, cooler heads prevailed and I kept at it until I had a workable coil and, once that was achieved and the coil was broken in.......vaping nirvana!

good choice of watches though ,Eyal Lalo would of helped you lol.

:) hey everyone. Stepped out of work for lunch. I keep thinking I can't wait for the next LE sale, but why do I need another? Lol I WANT another, but I have my favorite color(green envy), its my favorite design so far, and I don't need anything else in it than Pluid. Those drip tips for the dragons were awesome looking, but I came to the conclusion others need to try this and love it as well. I guess I'll just hold out for a DoomsDay one ;) or the 12/21/12. Does anyone else have these feelings too? It's seriously an addiction, Face.

That actually brings to mind a question I had. I was under the impression the Dragons were coming with those glass driptips pictured on the site? Mine didn't come with it and I haven't noticed anyone with one. Was I mistaken? If so, is there a way to get those driptips?

The first one can be a little rough. I won't even get into how long it took me to do my first coil using a Provari, lol. Between the shorts and constant errors I just about threw the DID and Provari out the window.

The good news is each successive coil is so much easier then the last. First one took many hours, second one about 10 minutes.


It takes me a lot longer to get a good coil on my ZAP in comparison to the iHybrid. I have absolutely no idea why that is, it seems when I wrap a coil on the iHybrid all it takes is a couple wiggles and it's good to go. Maybe it's just me and I suck with my ZAP:D

Also I've already asked this once, when can we expect more of the new standards? Usually faceless has the date on the site and its always dead on accurate. I missed out on the first run:-(

On another note my iHybrid was not performing as well for some reason last night/this morning. Went in and tightened the posts as well as the screws and its fogging the room again, as expected :)

Now, why does that sound so familiar..

ok please understand the pictures on the site are Fisty's rendering before they where made, the drip tips are of her creation for the rendering and not being made by anyone that I know of. The dragon renderings where done before Face started making drip tips for the LE's.

That was kinda silly, because it defiantly was almost a selling point for me. Or at least something that made me want to push f5 a million times. The selling point is HOW AMAZING these things taste AND THE VAPOR!

I have a chip on my glass, no leak just a small chip, anyone know where to get new glass yet, i bought one from provape for the other brand but it's too small in height

Yeah, the Provape tank is for the smaller devices. If you go to electronicstix they may have the Standard sized tanks. Faceless made a bunch of SS tanks, but I think he mentioned using the vendor to sell the fused quartz. Anyone else? Faceless?

What's the time now in the central ??

2:21 Eastern, 1:21 central, in the afternoon. (or 14:21 and 13:21, respectively)

OK. Face-Don't know what you did to get the Ihy's to work so freaking fantastic, but it's imho the best pv on the market.

Silver contact paste inside the positive post and brass screws. Almost no amp loss from the battery to the atty, that's why.

I have to say that the pictures do not do it justice! This is a work of art! Wonderful! Now if I can figure out how to set it up. :blink:

Yeah, they really don't. This Dragon is incredible. I always worry about making my renders too pretty and customers being disappointed with the final product. I'm going to stop worrying about it, every one he's made has trumped my renders by a fair margin, and in the case of the Dragons knocked it out of the park.

Yeah, that.. Soon after I created the Dragon renders Face decided to stop having glass tips made and make the tips himself. The information I know, Sagewood was working on figuring out how to make a design like that and Trippy (Bert) has the diagrams of shape and size to work from. Either one will make you a custom tip similar to it. Sagewood seems to be a big more accustom to doing custom orders. They also have full dragon heads and dragon claw ones they designed for this. Trippy has dragon heads they've been working on that are a different design. I designed those so they wouldn't be too terribly difficult to make, they're really just normal flatmouths with a black stripe so shouldn't cost too much.

so, any news on the glass wick?
Bert from Trippy Tips has opted to make the wicks for us, rather than have a lot of DIY glass cutting injuries by all of us. He will be offering these free when they are ready. He is using borosilicate (pyrex) and will be flame-polishing and annealing the tubes for us.

they have spares lol. The problem with pyrex not holding up is because it isnt annealed, annealed pyrex should work, and I have all the stuff needed. I'm torching this glass right now lmao
Precisely, the flame-polishing and annealing should take care of breakage issues fromw hat I'm told.

it blowing up and having glass all over lol, I think the pyrex will hold up to the heat though if annealed. Any news on our trade?
==============================

Ok brb still catchcing up. Only 12 more pages lol

No but really they are beautiful devices and I recently just caught on to them.

TYVM! That's exactly the information I was hoping to get. I'm definitely going to see if I can have one made. Does Sagewood have a site?

Admittedly, I was disappointed not to see that driptip in the package but I figure it's my fault for not asking for clarification. The site says "custom SS iHybrid d-tip" so it's right there for all to see, if I had just opened my eyes.
