My understanding is that the wicks are made of an aramid fiber that does not melt and does not burn.
I am sorry to say that I have NO idea where to get such material.

There is a type of atomizer that is becoming popular in the "modding" community that uses wire mesh to do the wicking.
And it is also a completely rebuildable kind of atomizer, too!

Take a look at this subforum and look at the threads about "genesis" atomizers...

I have no idea what he said, but welcome to ECF and mabrouk on switching to vaping!

You should be able to get the parts for a rebuildable atty through, they are not obviously e-cigarette related, and then the consumables' are really just stainless steel mesh or silica or ceramic rope and kanthal wire. I doubt they'd be banned. If you can get verified here (http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/announcements-rules/283955-how-become-verified-member.html), you can jump over to the classified section and see if there is any for sale there.
 
This Verification Process is kind of difficult for new guys like us (specially for ones like me who never bought anything here yet, use Western Union and never used Pay Pal, with no or little previous purchases from eBay)

All I am trying to do now is at least to have more posts in here to have the 20 required posts. :(

Hey, hany3h, are you handy with tools and such? Or do you know people who are?

I think it would be easiest if you could make your own Genesis-style atomizers.

Any modders around here who can help him out? Where can we find some schematics of a Genisis atty? It is a very simple device in fact, just difficult to make from scratch without the proper tools.

It's amazing how much people chatter in these threads and the the signal-to-noise ratio is infinitesimal :( I thought by this time someone could have come up with a plain how-to build instruction set.

That's all I could come up with :(

dear Smoker'schoice
you are speake as what i ask to do not say (silica - ceramic ........)

in usa you search for silica wick and you will find in scond but in egypt you will not untill you know what is used for to search for it

but you give me a idea there is must be name of this silica rope in arabic
like if you say to me "Wool rope" if i search with this name in egypt i will get nothing it must be translated to arabic and search with name "حبل صوف" or as you hear it with your ear "hapl sof" that is the real name of wool rope in arabic
so
the rope in arabic is "hapl" but i search for silica no any translat for it so that is why i can not find it so i asking for any other Industry use the same material to search fir it

may be it is short name or shortcut for name
or maybe its silk rope
or Glass wool
or Fiber glass wool (but i hear that is very dengrus for Sniffing with nose)
my mind will explode but i am sure with your and forum helps i will get after while easy only for the first time it stuck
thanks i will wait for your help
