Good morning to all sundry and assorted personages!

Finally caught up on the reading from last night, so here goes...

1. For those who drill/screw/dremel their cartos - how do you deal with metal filings and do you feel that the taste is affected by the filings and/or heat from the dremel notching? I'm really not fond of the idea of using a dremel and leaving odd bits of metal floating around in my juice.

2. If I order an economy VVV 3ml tank, should I go ahead and get extra o-rings and filler screws?

2.a. Wouldn't it be easier just to drill out the existing laser-cut holes on the Boges with a slightly bigger bit? Or is it better to have extra holes?

3. Evod is still working great after cleaning/burning all the whatever-it-was off the new head. 45 minute commute this morning - no odd taste. All is well with the world again. Guess I'll need to clean and burn all the rest of my "new" heads...

2. If I order an economy VVV 3ml tank, should I go ahead and get extra o-rings and filler screws?

I punch holes and don't use a rotary tool to do so, so the above quote is really all I can address...

My oldest VVV economy polypro (with grommets) is about 9 months old. The fill screw is as tight as the day I got it, and the grommet/o-rings, while slightly discolored, are in perfect working order. They have maintained their grip and elasticity through out. The same can be said for my other two polypros that aren't quite as old.

They old up exceptionally well. You can;t go wrong having backups on hand... but in my experience... they have not been necessary!

Gooooood Morning Happy Vapers!!!

Zip...
1) don't recommend drilling or screwing a car to... punching or cutting (dremel) sure...
2)your original grommets o-rings should last quite a while but if you loose the thumbscrew you'll be screwed! (Or drilled or dremeled)
2a) if you're going to punch/slot your own, buy unpunched carts and save 50¢/pack
3) bravo!!

1- Once again not going to be able to get close to catching up..
Tish, you think vaping is bad, whatever you do, do NOT get wrapped up in flying model airplanes, that is a horrible addiction, I vape to help pay for my plane addiction. I truly quit due to having the money for cigs or a plane, and well the plane won.

#2 Well, kid off to school, caught up on the thread. Awaiting a PM on a mech. I'm so addicted to buying vape gear. I don't think I'm quite as bad as some people (coughcoughmrpicccough), but I would be if I had the funds. I think the co-ops and the classies are going to be a problem for me. Buying a mech instead of a couch is probably not the best use of my resources....

#1 Well, I'm tired and in need of a return to bed now that the house is once again blissfully empty. Have to get myself psyched up to go back to work after the uber frustrating night I had. On the plus side, my local vape meet is this Saturday! Excited as always, but a bit nervous this time, since I will be fulfilling the role of an organizer./admin from here on out. I hope I can fill the shoes of the guy who is stepping down. He's a pretty awesome guy. His shoes are pretty big.

3. 8/22 - I'm getting close to finding that rut, if a "rut" is a place of contentment. I've found mods and delivery devices I like just fine but the search for an ADV eludes me. I keep thinking I've found it and then it gets boring. Some ruts are easier to fall into than others, and this also varies from person to person. I hope to get there, someday.

OH - So DITTO ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^:)

I don't ever expect to find my ADV. I have found plenty of juices that I enjoy, but never one that satisfies me ALL the time. Variety is the spice of life. I don't think I'm chasing that rainbow anymore. After over a year of vaping, I don't think there is a single juice out there that can be everything I want it to be all the time. Because I don't always want the same thing all the time. So, personally, I feel like the idea of an ADV is illusory.

I truly hope not . . . :(

Apparently, I have the maturity of a 12 year old boy.

Really - I always thought of "You" as only being a 9 year old boy . . .

Given Your Post - IMO - "YOU" will be able to 'Fit" . . . ;)

Just Remember To Have - FUN ! ! ! :D

Sick as a dog. (how sick are dogs that we refer to them as ill?)
feeling awful.
Hating work right now.
Only reason i am here is because they have this asinine policy that even if you are sick, in court, or for whatever reason absent they use you vacation time to fill in your time card to 40 hours. I have 1 8hour day of vacation time left. they would rather have me here, spreading a potentially contagious flu or strep to my coworkers than excuse me for the day. ima try and tough it out till noon and take a half day. i loose 4 hours of my remaining vacation time. which sucks, and shouldnt be legal IMHO, but i guess at least its paid....

I definitely dont get health insurance. I am hoping Obama care lowers to cost thru my employer, at $200 a month thru work for JUST ME for the bottom plan is not affordable. I get 10 days (2 weeks) of vacae each year if i worked a full year prior. my first year i only had 3 days.. doesnt seem legal to be able to use an employees vacae time for legitimate sickness, fmla, jury duty etc..... not being paid should be enough. in AZ, employees have little say in this matter
seeing double as i type. i really need to get outta here

8/22 #1 PIF to the last post^^^^^^^

Good morning VVVers.. I just got up... I had a day from .....Well you all know I am sure..... Anyway I have some reading to do... But as for extra parts for the VVV tank... By all means yes.... That way you can change out if you want to... And I do have 1 tank that the screw does not stay in anymore..... I found a larger screw for it & will drill another hole for the screw plug beside it.... I do my own holes and if there is any bits of metal I am sure it goes into the batting & will never see it....
Oh and for the music topic I think Sky, Jac & Zip all stole my MP3 playlist.....
I am going to try to get some reading done...like lots of pages....BBS
