...How are all of you measuring your liquids out?...

I use 20ml dosing syringes (for kiddos) and a few 10,3 and 1ml syringes plus a plastic beaker that holds 280ml and a tiny plastic funnel that I use to fill my 30ml bottles.Kinda small scale compared to some.

On a side note yesterday I picked up this Titan precision screwdriver set...

...at the local hardware store.The Phillips and Hex bits fit my kayfun lites good and tight.A major plus is the 1.3mm allen bit fits my new Serpent mini perfectly. :) I'm a happy camper.

I have been playing with the Coppervape as practice for decorating a CC classic for a friend. I was surprised at the machining quality, I am fascinated by squonkers but after more than a few tries they are not my sort of device.

These are not finished and still need some clear coating (if it ever stops raining over here)

You know you have to post these pics for Corey and the crew now, right?

Considering you're doubling the amount of CC's that are done up and all.

And tripling the number that are inked. (With mine being the only known one up til now.)

    Nice! I always love your pictures, but this one has inspired me. I need to know how to make one of my Coppervapes look like that green one.

    alcohol ink dabbing, 3 different blues, green, copper then seal with krylon kamar varnish, then a couple of coats of 2 pack clear varnish. needs two more.

    i tentatively said i would do it if the practice pieces (coppevapes) worked out. i would hate to ruin a cc mod and i am not very experienced with spray varnishes......this is more my thing

    I think I need to go read through that thread of yours. I want to try this out. I'm not very artistic but I'm gonna give this a try I think. After I practice a bit.

    My SXK Kayfun V5 Mini came in today from Fasttech, my fastest order from them ever! Only 11 days from time of order until it was in my mailbox. I'm used to 2 to 6 weeks, lol.
    I have to say, this one is a thing of beauty! Best looking tank I own, if it performs as good as it looks, I will be happy! I have yet to try it yet, that will be this weekend. This is Fasttech SKU# 5374600. I will try to show a few photos:

    Here is a real gem at a great price. It is only a Dna30 but I am getting one to retrofit a Dna60 into. These mods were super expensive a few years ago back in the day when it was almost impossible to get ahold of any Dna device. There are cheaper devices out there with more modern regulators in them but I think even the Dna30 is a viable option today.

    Carbon Method Radix V1 mod
    Looks like a good deal! I did tell myself the other day..NO more new purchases......my focus now is to learn and start DIY my own ejuice and save money. I just got my last new thing for 2016..my NaRDA from 3fvape. Little, single coil rda that packs in a whole lotta flavor. Really cool airflow system on the deck. Playing around with diff coil set ups and wicking on it now, it's been great so far..it's a restricted lung style rda. It will probably never leave the house. Dripping requires way to much work on the go, I don't know how some people do it. Guess I'm just a lazy vaper.

    Ok so I've done quite a bit of research based on the suggestions so many of you kndly gave me for a stealth device. Ideally I eant something that doesnt look like a tank and mod for those times when stealth vaping is the only way to vape. So I narrowed it down to three. The icare, the plato and the kanger cupti.

    Looks-wise i like the plato best but i would need to buy new attys for it and for the cupti and both are the most expensive of the three at around $45-50.

    The icare is the least expensive at just under $20 but again I would have to buy attys and when the battery dies it's a throw-away. Of course I can buy two of them for the price of either of the other two.

    So it comes down to leakage issues and how long attys will last for any of them. The amount of juice they hold is a non-issue for me as I only vape about 2mls/day. Comments? Thoughts?

    I have heard nothing about leakage or spittle coming from the Icare's. The coil life will vary with use and the eliquid used. If your using juices with sweetener they will not last long but nothing will that type of liquid. I would say order one for 20 bucks and get a pack of coils to go along with it and try it out.

    No, no, Kad - it's all good. Not "Packers" (per se), but "Packers OF...".

    You see, finding a professional sports team that doesn't take municipal funding has become impossible, with the exception of that team from the tiny little town in Wisconsin that wasn't even on most maps before Lombardi got there.

    I know that's difficult to believe but it is, quite sadly, true. As a fan of a team that annually sells the name of their stadium to the highest bidder, it's somewhat embarrassing too. This is an affluent south Florida market even.
    I guess it's just never enough unless you're the Green Bay Packers, the Vape Industry, or.... :tumble:



    I liked your post but I have NO idea what it said. But I liked it. I'm in a LIKE mood. ;)

    These are some seriously well made devices. The electronics in them are a little dated but still worth the money for sure. They are pretty small too which for me is most important.

    It's what I look for in a mod too..I don't need anything more than a single 18650 and I prefer mods that fit nice in the pocket..as far as dated well I've given up on temp control so that makes it a lot easier to find a good reliable and cheaper mod that works for me now.....
