The claw is hand carved hardwood, cherry wood I believe. First 10 are reserved and its taking me forever to make each...
I sure hope you will do more drip tips before you do more pipes.
Yeah, I'm burning the wick at both ends tyring to keep up.. Lol. I'll have some new stuff soon
Aren't all of them slightly offensively named??? That's my favorite part!
i love the claw pipe! gilf sounds good... got some uncomfortably named throat yogurt with my tip order Friday. I love TH so the description has me real excited to try it.
Love box is slowly edging ahead for me. Not by much, I still vape all 3 every day lol
I want to get some feedback from all of you... I've been tossing around the idea of making tips from LEAD FREE naval brass and maybe even copper. I like the idea, but in reality it's what you say that goes. So let me know your thoughts, suggestions, or complaints.. I WANT to hear it all
I've never used a metal tip of any kind, I don't have any fancy gear, and honestly, don't understand why I would want to use something other than the rubbery comfort tips. I'm sure I'm in a very small minority, I just haven't been vaping long enough to understand.
That's my menial input.
I'd love to be educated!!

Never menial.. Everything is great input. I can't do much with rubber, I have also been debating doing black/white Delrin(plastic) tips, maybe even machinable lexan or something similar.. Would that be more inline with what you are use to?
I love doing titanium, but if I can do a few other materials and make even more people happy then I'm game for it. So, keep the feedback coming... Tips from LEAD FREE naval brass, copper, Delrin, lexan.. Let me know your thoughts all...
I'm actually curious why, other than their obvious beauty (they are visually kick@$$) people want to use your tips. Please, please, please don't take that the wrong way! I want to know if there's a functionality difference between tips of different materials.
I definitely don't take it the wrong way!! Well I can't answer for everyone, but I can tell you why I choose to use other tips.. There isn't much as far as functionality.. I use titanium because (cp grade2) it is medical implant grade so I feel safe using it. I typically stay away from plastic because, frankly, I don't know if its one of the safe types. Same with brass mostly, I only trust it if I can see the materials data sheet and it says its 100% lead free. So function.. No real difference. Safety, call me a "crazy" but I'm doing this to be as healthy as possible.
Lastly.. To personalize.. Same reason a person picks a certain pair of earrings, or blazer for their outfit.. Or rims for a car.. Or even as simple as desktop wallpaper. Everyone likes a little flash to customize with and show off. Plus since these aren't mass produced, you'll never find an exact duplicate...
That's just my 2c.. But I'm a little bias
The health aspect...are we talking about the leeching out of possible toxins from the material the tip is made from?
I think your tips are dead sexy, I completely understand the aesthetic!

these tips are beautiful and handmade. well worth the price of admission imo

why? because they are beautiful and functional. Stainless steel/ Titanium will last forever, wont crack, wont let bacteria etc get absorbed. You can boil them for disinfection. They add a touch of class, art, uniqueness. Stainless steel/Titanium cant melt or become damaged from certain juices that do affect plastic, acrylic and even some delrin. I think I covered it all.
I think there is definately a market for the brass/copper you mentioned. There are a lot of people that are getting solid brass and brass decorated PVs. Ive seen threads where people mention that there are not many places they can get lead free brass. How about 2 toned titanium/brass drip tips, or even stackable parts , small pieces that inter link to mix and match as wanted. I know there is one Modder out there that makes some and people are freaking out being able to get them. The shipping is almost as much as the tips are. If you need links so you can see what Im talking about let me know.
I love your tips and Im posting picts of them in every thread that is asking anything about drip tips and on facebook e-cig groups and they all love them.

Yes, I'm speaking of leaching.. I know HDPE and LDPE are known as " safe" so I use them for 10ml liquid bottles (due to short time exposure and unavailability of glass in that size), but I use glass for 30ml liquid. I know the plastics I'm using are categorized "safe" so I feel comfortableaking products from those plastics. What I don't know is the type of plastic a $4 tip blow molded tip from china is made of. Is it recycled plastic slag from other molds, is it polyvinyl, polystyrene, polycarbonate.. Etc.. etc..
I personally choose to use medical grade titanium tips (and atomizers) and that's what I wanted to bring to the market too

Thank you so much for the feedback!! I've been trying to develop a way to make exchangeable parts on drip tips but still do it at a decent price. Once you start threading things, it gets time consuming and expensive. I thought about doing it as a slip on, but I am concerned it would get lost easily. What are these other tips going for price wise? If I can't do it better or cheaper then I'm not doing anyone any good right?! Lol
Either way I think I'm going to try out the lead free brass ones, maybe the copper.. And As always titanium.
