I'm guessing vaping Zone gets their flavor concentrates from Europe, Russia, or China and re-brands them at a very high markup. They don't seem to be from any company stateside, AFAIK. Their equipment is very overpriced, I can only imagine how cheap those flavorings might be at the source.

Bringing this forward:
which case are you planning on using for "The Punisher", Mike? Pardon me if I missed it, I read this and the "Girlie" mod thread but some info slips through the cracks with all I've been reading.
Also, is this link from page one DNA20D Screen Cradle the best choice, does it have the stop or is the stop necessary? Again, sorry if I missed this being covered already.

Mamu's screen cradle doesn't have the stop. Just click on bapgood at the top left and it will take you to all the options. The ones with stop say so in the title.
Thanks! If it was a snake, it would have stayed hidden in the corner. :D

I'm guessing the "DNA Screen Housing W-Stop 2mm" is designed for a 2mm wall thickness enclosure?

Good stuff. I prefer it mixed with TFA juicy peach, 1.5% VZ/7-8% TFA/remainder% base.

Back on topic (sort of), which case are you planning on using for "The Punisher", Mike? Pardon me if I missed it, I read this and the "Girlie" mod thread but some info slips through the cracks with all I've been reading.

I have a Hammond 1590B but I am still shopping around for something else that might be more suitable.

Good and accurate 3D scanners are big bucks!!!

I was a supporter of the robocular 3d scanner on kickstarter but it didn't quite make it. My pledge was $679. Had high hopes for this one because of the green laser and decent sized scanning volume of 9" x 9". They are talking about re-running the kickstarter and settling on a single size for the device instead of a small and standard version. We'll see what happens I guess but there seems like there is some good movement in the sub $1000 range.

I am currently obsessed with this 3D scanning and printing stuff and my first printer still hasn't even shipped yet. I'm already trying to justify a second 3D printer with multiple extruders. The new quad extruder by E3D called the Kraken is calling to me. Everything is moving at warp speed. Printers, scanners and printable materials. This should be a great year for all this stuff!

I know Zippy doesnt have the best reputation in the R/C world, but I figure I wont be taxing the Bat as hard in a Mod as they do in a car. I only need about 2-3C out of one.

So I rolled the dice and got a pair of these:
Z57002S3P-25%2813%29.jpg


I figure a 5700mAh 25C bat for less than $14, heck thats in the same price range as 2 18650s.
With dimensions of: 69x46x31mm
It opens up some other possibilities in terms of enclosures.

I also got one of those battery checker-uppers that Bap has. I will compare the Zippy against the A-spec.

Today's laugh:

A father put his 3-year-old daughter to bed, told her a story, and listened to her prayers that ended with, "God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma and good-bye Grandpa."

The father asked, 'Why did you say good-bye Grandpa?'

The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do."

The next day grandpa died. The father thought it was a strange coincidence.

A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers that went like this, "God bless Mommy, God Bless Daddy and good-bye Grandma."

The next day the grandmother died.

"Holy crap" thought the father, "this kid is in contact with the other side."

Weeks later when the girl was going to bed, the dad heard her say, "God bless Mommy and good-bye Daddy."

He practically went into shock. He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office. He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch, and watched the clock. He figured if he could get by until midnight he would be okay. He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day he stayed there, drinking coffee, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound. Finally midnight arrived; he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.

When he got home his wife said, "I've never seen you work so late. What's the matter?"

He said, "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my life."

She said, "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened to me. This morning my golf pro dropped dead in the middle of my lesson!"
