wow, glad I found this thread,,,,,,WL is the one I was looking at,,,,,,it seems the simplest for a newbie to comprehend,,,,,

I'm going to order some 18mg nic 60/40 or 70/30 and some simple flavors,,,,

I'll be happy if I can make a few single flavors and then buy the more complicated flavors (like buttery nipple, which is my fav, but I figure it's probably kind of complicated to make)

HOW to do store the tiny vials?

Mine are in a fishing tackle box. You can get all kinds of sizes, and the best ones have
plastic pieces you can put where you want to create various sized compartments. Some
other poster on the forum found this, which I'm thinking about getting from Amazon...

Plano Tackle Box

I always look around in grocery stores that sell storage stuff. I found some wire baskets
that are great for holding larger bottles of juice and odds and ends. For stuff I use every
day - tweezers, tips, needle, etc. - I use a square cake pan that I can easily pick up and
move where I want. Of course, I don't move it anywhere - it stays right on the kitchen
counter in the way of everything else :)

Went to big lots and got a 7 drawer plastic set on wheels. Then the thrift store for old computer disk boxes. One I use for my rebuild tools and the other for mixing hardware. That one has a lock so the kids cant get in it. Paid $5 for the boxes. The drawer system was $30.

4 of 7 drawers are filled with vape stuff. So is my desk :facepalm:

Modding stuff.
Mixing.
Rebuilding and tools.
Boxes and manuals.

I have a pencil holder on my desk with my attys and stuff. Also another file box for cartos, and battery boxes all over the desk. Im not as organized as I would like but I know where most of my stuff is.

I just got a flavor order from WL yesterday
So far I have tried grape juice and blueberry from loranns. whip cream from TFA, and virginia fire cured tobacco from seedman.
The grape was decent, it tastes like welches grape juice.
I made a blueberry and whipcream juice and it came out pretty good too. I find blueberry flavors to generally unsatisfying.
The virginia tobacco flavor has become my go to vape. It is very rich with some sweetness. Slightly earthy. Overall a great tobacco flavor on its own.

I also bought a couple cobalt blues and a few amber bottles, some nic, pg, and vg. :)
I haven't tried the lorann blackberry or champagne yet. The champagne smels reallllly good though. Seems like it would mix well with fruit flavors.

Knowing where it is, is good. Usually I know I have it, I just can't find it. :oops:

Shockingly...I am close to my seond order of 100mg/ml nic. It will be WL again...but a bigger order. This time I have amber glass to store it in the freezer. Ordering 250 ml, maybe 500ml...not sure. Fantastic stuff, as mentioned the packing is second to none and the prices are great to me. I have a total of under $100 invested in DIY and I have MANY flavors left, 390ml or so of mixed juice and a little nic left with LOTS of PG and VG. A $30 bottle of nic with what I have will last another nine months easy. More if I cut nic level. I spent more than that on juices in my first 30 days...and I like what I make better for the most part. Vaping for a year on $130 in juice can't be beat. This includes supplying my GF who is a part time vaper. DIY makes me feel less guilty about being a gear ......

WL was rock solid for me. I will use them again and again without hesitation. I remember not long ago a frustrated newbie to DIY screwed up...and John sent product to fix after seeing the thread. I never see service quite that good.

Yup. When I see other threads talking about getting DIY supplies elsewhere, I just shake my
head. You can't get it elsewhere for less then WL, and as you said, the packaging is tighter
than the bark on a tree. I vaped a mil in the time it took me to open everything.

I've heard of adding vinegar,,,,,,,,what's the purpose of this and what kind of vinegar?

Not sure what vinegar, Its the same as adding a few drops of real lemon juice. The acid makes fruit flavors pop. I've also read it helps preserve the flavor longer (not sure about that one they don't last long to worry about that) I have been topping all my fruit vapes with 3 drops per 10 ml using fresh lemon juice (out of the little plastic lemons you get at the supermarket).

I think these flavors are new-
Cinnamon roll
Mocha
Molasses
Musk
Pumpkin
Sweet cream
Tangerine
White chocolate

I notice he has a lot more Loranns flavors for sale lately.
I got my eye on the sweet cream. That sounds yummy.

They gave me some sweet cream as a sampler. Its very nice to add to fruits and anything that needs an extra creamy note!

LMAO! Too true. I received a small parcel today, packaged as pictured in an envelope labeled "Please do not crush".

UGH! Lucky! All I got was a freebie strawberries and cream! *pouts*
Naw, In all actuality I am very grateful for the free sample John sends with every order.
I've gotten 2 ethyl maltol, 1 nectarine, and 1 strawberries and cream. Not to mention the endless pipettes he keeps sending which I never use! :p
Jeez, won't this guy take a hint? A guy can only accept so many freebies before it kills him! :p :p :p

I love John lol
He is a very nice guy. Very helpful.
