You guys have too much fun here, where do you find all of those?

Hey Blue,

You can find out exactly where they each one came from if you click on Reply with Quote. You can see the links to the sites. There are quite a few Image sites out there. I generally only use Photobucket. I haven't figured out to to Get to some of them, and I haven't figured out tow to Post some of the others.

I just do a Google search for
photobucket smiley hello
or whatever I'm looking for, but I put the word photobucket in front, and the "concept" after.

Have Fun!!! :)

If you don't mind Sharing, what gauge Kanthal, and about what Resistance do you like to vape on? Every aspect of it makes a difference!!! Even the Wick Material. Have you ever tried Cotton, or Hemp Twine?

Cotton is said to give a Pillowy Taste, and both Cotton and Hemp Twine are super absorbent, so they are great for 100% VG!!!

OK, I'm home now.
I've used allot of different gauge round wires and found something much better. I'm now using flat wire to make my coils, it's: Kanthal D Ribbon resistance heating flat wire.
I love this stuff! I'm using 0.5 x 0.1mm or 0.020 x 0.004" flat wire now, thinking of getting some thinner flat wire: 0.4 x 0.1mm / 0.016 x 0.004" Kinda waiting on Count to give me his thoughts on the thicker stuff first...hint, hint. :D
Flat wire gives much more coverage on the wick and there for more vapor production.

OK, now for the wick:
I've tried allot of types of fibergalss/glassfibre wick material as well as Cotton material, both are good in there own way.
But now that I've tried ceramic wick material I'm probably not using much of the other wick material any more. Ceramic seems to hold up much better and not break down with massive usage, heck I've been using the same wick and coil for like a month now.
I just spray it off with water, dry burn it till the gunk is all burnt off, respray it, blow dry it and start using it all over again.
Maybe this helps you out? I dunno? But I'm hooked on making my own wick and coils.

Where do you get the ceramic wick material?
I am getting hooked on making my own as well but I am very new to it and hey if I can skip the hard stuff, heck I am lazy. I really use and abuse my wicks but I do not like cartos so I am gonna have to rebuild, cause I am cheap as well ( to a point) !!!
