I used to always keep my analogs in my shirt pocket, but now my 510 keeps dropping out on the ground every time I bend over. I was looking for something that had a pocket clip so that my 510 would stay safe, fully assembled ready to vape!
Sleek, inexpensive and customizable. I tried to make this a fun procedure with a decent bunch of photos, but if you have any questions Ill try to answer all posts here.
Inside Dimensions: Approximately 4-7/16 (In Usable Length Including Cap) & about a ½ Wide
(It is just the perfect size for a 510 because of a extended riser inside in the cap. Not too narrow for manual buttons either.)
Time Involved: From 10 minutes to 2 hours depending on what you wish for in a finished case. (It took longer to write this post!)
Skill Level: Newbie to Advanced
Requirements:
Have a 510? Have a Joye, Titan or Yeti? Have a Manual 510 or Automatic 510? Do you have ANY e-cig smaller than a 510 that youd like keep protected?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions and for a buck fifty you can use this case. Read ON!
First the link where to buy (Bet you can find one of these locally.) or (If you cant, you may not need to read any further it might cost you more to get them sorry!)
Instant Hand Sanitizer Spray | Walgreens | Walgreens
Next Got it? Then gut it!
The hand sanitizer liquid stuffy can be recycled in your own dispenser if you have one. (I did!) Simply unscrew top and drain. Okay, the 2 pieces on the lower left of the the 3rd photo (inside pieces) you dont need (..or maybe one could be used as a spare for the next straw cart mod!) lol
Next rinse, clean and dry! (I used only hot water. Hey, it was a sanitizer after all.)

Done! At this point you can put your favorite 510 (Fully Assembled!) and checkout the fit! Thats the Battery, Atomizer & Cart a complete 510 ready to vape!
Functional Perfect Fit... but not too pretty huh? (You made it this far, read On!)
The Custom Case...
Okay, funny what #600 grit (extra fine) sandpaper and any drill used as makeshift lathe can do to a Walgreens logo! Lets prettyer up!
Materials: #600 grit sandpaper (Actually any fine abrasives would do. Emory board anyone?) Duct or masking tape, gloves and a few minutes.
*Okay, so the drill/lathe part is optional but it can get you done very, very fast. (Way cool too!)
Procedure:
Manual Method: Sand off logo and print. (Very Slow) It can be done though, keep at it!
Automatic Method: (Most guys will probably love this.) Take small piece of Duct or masking tape (about 3 long should be right). and affix open end of case to drill chuck. (Try to make the barrel of case as straight on drill chuck as possible. (Perhaps a close sized nut driver bit in the drill chuck might help here.) ***Note: Caution! A gloved hand works best here, it can get hot!*** Hold sandpaper on barrel in hand and let drill spin. Like turning a table leg or baseball bat! Fun isnt it?
You should be done pretty quick now .. Done!
*** Still having problems with the above rig? Then check out Scotts (igetcha69) Bling Cigs Video Tutorial at: Video tutorials for electronic cigarettes ***
(Best similar sort of video representation I could think of at the moment, you should get the idea.)
Your done and you should now have a near clear Perfect 510 case! Yeah!
Now at this point you can leave it that way or color it up but you decide! Let the sky be the limit and your imagination be your guide!!
Here is one of mine.....
*** Remember sensitive automatic batteries may turn on if dropped or jostled in this case. Just unscrew the atomizer & battery a few turns to be on the safe side. This should have a negligible effect on case performance. ***
Im including a few photos of Plastic Spray (Like they use on tool handles.) very tough non-slip grip stuff that I used on one case and a few of my e-cigs that I have fit in the case with just a bit of foam padding for added protection and to keep them stationary inside the case.
I had originally looked at using this as a low cost liquid pumper for refilling or topping up like JC sells for their nic-liquids, (I know Im lazy!), but then revisited it later as a case after reading a post by zosmatech in another forum. Thanks! first go out to zosmatech, igetcha69, all the forum members I learned from and was inspired by and my buddy Rick for all his help!
***Please Note: These are just my personal experiences, words, thoughts and photos building this case and so as always:
Individual user mileage may very, some assembly required, batteries not included and we will not be held liable if case is lost or stolen because you made it look too pretty or way too cool .***
Have Fun & Enjoy!
