If your talking about me, No I'm not mad about any money. I got paid for the design.
but when 4 people were negotiating to buy something and when it does sell to someone else, then one of the potential buyers starts making it anyway after saying he wouldn't well sir that is all about ethics,,,, not money.



Gummy have you been to the Nhaler forum or COV or Johnboy Usmc or 7 other forums and companies to ..... that they did Not buy " YOUR design !"

NOTE that Vermonster posted his start earlier in the thread , also IF you did NOT patent or try to protect your design that is your fault ! not MINE !~ . as I stated no one person can lay claim to this design .

I at least for the time being am NOT deleting your posts or your cronies that you " WARNED ME ABOUT " remember that line , " I will have people all over your forum slamming you " ????

SO no the time has come Gummy , show me a Patent or an Application.

I like the idea of the screw, but not on the tube, can I get mines with it on the main top cap instead?

if the screw designs are still going to be on the tube, I prefer just using a bottle to fill it vs having a syringe to fill it.

I am increasing the screw size to a 6-32 this will make the hole bigger for filling , it also doubles as a locking mechanism for the tank.

#1, Mike, I think it's time to ban Gummy from the Subforum. He's obviously got nothing constructive to add, just dung to spread.

#2, Not sure what the exact thickness of the tube is... Lemme think... I'm terrible at math, but I believe it's 5/8" ID, 3/4" OD.

Nope I am not going to do that , He claims one thing and I did my research he has no claim to it IMO ! If he really had a claim or was smart enough he would have patented it IMO .

He is ...... that I actually did my homework and did not pay him OFF ! because it was a blackmail type setup I can tell you.

" Buy it from me , if you make it and do not pay , my cronies will slam you on the forum "

No, it cracked from the edge of the tank down. Like I said, I'm pretty sure it was user error on my part, dropping something on it in my bag.

I don't have it with me to post a pic ATM, accidentally left it down at a friends house last night. I'll shoot him an IM and see if he can take a pic.
Can you post a pix of the cracked tank for me ??
did it crack at the screw location ?

So the Modder's area is fair game for profiteering?

I know we want to get back on track with posts on how the tank is working, and after this I will do my best to resist and not post any further comments... But I do have a question and only because several years ago I should have gotten a patent on something and did not. I just did not have the money, resources or know how to do so, and now it is everywhere. I'm past it now, but still curious. So here it is.

Isn't the modders forum fair game? I thought if you had a good idea you were supposed to keep it to yourself until you got the patent process rolling (hence the term patent pending) It's kind of like Steve Jobs inviting Bill Gates in, showing him everything and then getting mad Gates beat him to the finish line. So many people are doing what I thought of years ago now, I doubt anybody has a patent on it, but I can prove I thought of it first. My feeling is, it is my bad for not getting the almight patent and I am glad I made a few dollars off it when I had the idea.

Yep. Once it's published in a public venue with no patent pending it's fair game. Dude doesn't have a leg to stand on.

Thats what I thought. I often wish I had kept my idea silent and took the time and money to get a patent. I'm not even saying they stole my idea from me. I did it on such a small scale chances are they just thought of it themselves. Truth is I lost interest in the project and stopped doing it long before they even started. But if I gotten the patent, I could of made the big boys pay me before they started doing it. Oh well, all is fair with love and war! Next time I will patent. How radical of a change do you have to make to an existing idea to patent it?

Here's a pic of the crack in the tank. Could've been for a few different reasons.

Sounds to me like he sold protection from having his cronies trash the vendor on the forums, not an original design.

He Blackmailed me is what he did ! or tried to anyhow .

I have informed the Moderators of this fact , most likely I will get banned for responding to his BS in the modders forum but .... IT , Nhaler , COV , Liquinator and many others are using that same design but he SINGLED ME OUT because I did not PAY him off !!!

BTW you SINGLED Notcigs out and ignored all others like Nhaler , COV , Liquinator etc etc etc .
