The REO Lounge - Part II

[Honkey Kong]

Hey everybody! Just got in from Work, well more like 20 minutes ago. Our second set of Woods got here today, but they are nasty. I got a little thread in the general section because I have no clue how to clean them. I need some help from the veteran wood handlers here, please?

 

[Dan Patrick]

So when you say nasty I assume the previous owner used a juice not to your liking? Or are they physically dirty? For smells you can put them in a bag with coffee for a few days.

I also follow that up with a stay with some baking soda.

Also flavors tend to stay in the bottles and especially the O rings Might have to chunk those.

After all that Howards Wax and feed all over the inside with a QTip. Then some hard wax in an appropriate color. A cape cod polishing cloth on the brass cup and she's like new.

Sometimes it is needed to replace the tubing. You can send it in or order the replacement parts on the website and do it your self.

 

[Honkey Kong]

Thank you very much, Dan! That is exactly what I needed.

Yeah, one smells real strong and the other not so much but still there. Some really strong juice was ran through it that I do not care for. Now that mention it, I should probably change the plumbing system on the first one as well. My beloved Gold tastes a bit odd in it, but Bounty Hunter was fine.

I got a wood that had cinnamon odor big time, I used alcohol and brushed it on the inside several times and soaked the tubing in same for 2 days and let it all dry. It was good as new after letting that air out outside for about a day. I did get another 2 sets of tubing for the future though. Good luck.

I just made a new DIY I've never tried. Green Tobapple

12.5% Green Apple
6.25% Tobacco Absolute
1.25% Sweetner

Mine is 50/50 PG/VG and 18mg nic. The Tobacco Absolute was a PITA to siphon and measure with a syringe. It's syrupy and stains everything it touches. I think I'll let it steep for two weeks before I try it.

Hi Darrel
Good for you! We've got a line on a contractor ....hopefully we'll be able to work through some estimates over the next few weeks. Got a lot of numbers to put together to find out what we can and can not do. Good times.

 

[braxy29]

so i sent a private message to rhapsody, but perhaps i should ask publicly as well. i've been using mini's for over a year, how exactly do the 18490's compare? any thoughts? do the atties burn hotter or anything?

 

[braxy29]

and also the grands, as long as i'm asking.

 

[braxy29]

so..... *crickets*

guess i will check back in a little while, lol.

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

Exciting. That's my next move but likely be a few years till I have the necessary equity

Atty temp is about the same I suppose in theory the mini would be hotter but not enuf to notice. But the better battery life is huge with the 18490. My poor mini just sits on the shelf now. The 18490's have taken over my vaping arsenal

Ya...we've got some land prep to take care of first....so we've got to get the numbers then go see the bank.

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

Buying a house would be easier....and the housing prices around here are fantastic right now. I get so bummed during this time every month because I'm uploading tons of listings that fit the bill for us. Lots of really good homes for 189-250K range right now.

I hope everything works out for you. Have another appt with bank on thurs. hope to get financing approved ASAP. Think to keep DW happy better buy the house she wants then I have to build a shop out back. She won't be too happy with all my tools inside.

Anyways time for me to turn in. Good night Lisa and everyone else sleep well

I bet they are similar to the one we are looking at for 485k your likely looking at more land too this one is only .18 acre it's pretty small for me but I will adjust. It's gonna be weird not being able to pee in my own yard
