So, Bob's your uncle, and Lydia's your aunt!

Quigs, you gotta tell us what that expression really means some day. It must be a Canadian thing, I've never heard it from anyone who isn't from good old' Canuckistan.

Canuckistan!, ouch!...but ya, TC's right...if you're a Canadian, Canadian (my mom's side goes back generations) you had either British or French heritage...mine's British and it's surprising how many little quirks and sayings sort of survived (though Canadianized)...I don't wipe up spilled juice with a napkin, I use a serviette...another I heard just today is "in for a penny, in for a pound", or basically "all in!"...and btw, no one in Canada says "aboot" west of Nova Scotia...no one understands what the hell those East Coasters are saying :p

A very good friend of mine lived in Toronto for years, and I visited him fairly often. I can promise you there's a lot of "aboot" being said in Ontario :) We made up a story about one of his close friends in Toronto, nicest guy you could imagine, that he was a Canuckistinian anti-terrorist, that we had to hide from him or he'd kidnap us and knit us tuques and feed us poutine and other ghastly Canuckistinian tortures. Yeah, tobacco wasn't the only thing we were smoking back then. :D

The E.O.D - Gold Plated Rebuildable Tank - End of Days Atomizer

If that's really gold plated, the end of days may truly be near certain vendors lol

assuming gold is juice resistant, I dunno...

Wow, they're cloning clones now...so if you drop a $15 china DID into an electroplating tank and lay a micron of 10ct gold on it then acid etch a pic of some chick walking a dog on it you can amp the price of that pimpdaddy buy 150%?, not bad for 15 mins work...pfft, great time to be alive :facepalm:

Gold is very corrosion resistant. Electrical contacts that need to be corrosion resistant are gold plated.


Yeah, Q, but it's GOLD! :blink:


:D

I hear ya TC but this thing is like the Black and Gold Trans Am of RBA's...instead of the acid etching they should've inset a big a-s "$" in rhinestones so you could hang it around your neck when you aren't using it :laugh:

Quigs you're unloading all your gear! Its breaking my heart! LOL

Not all, just "real" sizing...keeping my Bogger BF (love that thing), a Line, my Ody, and my SS GGTS/ZAG, my ubiquitous SB, my 18350 Cube (for my Mini 300 when it comes in Sept 2047)...gonna spend the loot on another SS GGTS for my Ody (my Ody GGTS base showed up today woot!). Plus I'm keeping all my home built's...they're like my children...and I think selling your children is against the law, pfft!

Mesh/Cotton hybrid wick Bluegrasslover's method - YouTube

Quigs just don't tell me the Ody is that much better than the Penny, lest you get my jockeys in a bunch lol

Your Jockeys shall continue caressing you like a lover Cy, in absolute shear performance I'd say the Penny actually has the edge but the Ody is just a little more flexible with the 510/GGTS bases and 3ml/5ml/7ml modes.
