Welcome Scubabatdan. Please make yourself at home. (You realize this is a noob thread, right?)

Does one need to be part of the Scubagen co-op in order to get in on this one? I am really interested in trying my hand at the SS wick conversions Scubabatdan was kind enough to write up in another post and I could use the materials.
Thanks, here are some of the m1.6 nuts from Ace Hardware:
And in this pic are the two on the left I "processed"
I simply bought 1 m1.6 bolt and locked two nuts against each other and ground them on my dremel.
So now they are beveled and round
And here is a size comparison:

im sure alot of people doing the scubagen have the parts, so not all of us will need the mesh... but id assume that anyone could, it would only help the quantity and get a better price id imagine
Haha Im completely broke after getting this months supply of e-cig stuff, so I'll probably cruise the classified when the scubagens actually come in the mail.
I'm just kicking myself in the face for not having seen the Scubagen Co-op signup earlier. I can just hope that there will be another one soon.
Hang around, its always possible that someone will tire of it or won't be able to complete it or will sell theirs off. Won't be me though!
I don't see why not, the more the merrier (and maybe cheaper)

Awesomeness! Just out of curiosity damn what is it u do for a living if u dont mind me asking?
I find the innovative modders like u guys inspiring. Its inspired me to to try and invent things myself. Doing electrical work isn't too gratifying for me anymore, I mean everything I do is eventually covered by a big ugly slab of sheet rock

Most people post stuff like that in their profiles, if they care to share. Take a look.
If the coop goes off (looks promising) then we are thinking ~ 2 bucks per 4" x 4.5" piece plus shipping, which should make 3 wicks). A UK member that lives close to the company is talking with the vendor, to see how we can get the best price. If it ships from the UK, should be in the 2 - 4 dollar range for shipping per.

Or how bout he ships to a willing member in the states who then ships em out for a couple bucks each? Can use the couple extra bucks saved there for more quantity

Definately a possibility. I don't know if it will be any cheaper. If you read back a bit, the shipping rates are not that bad. I offered just in case tillis wanted to share the work of packaging up all the individual shipments.

Beautiful Dan, that's what I was thinking of too. Did you have any problem with spin-off or locking the threads after beveling?
Id be willing to help out packaging as well. Hey, I might be able to find all the parts we need locally. Everything is so damn close to each other here, im 20 mins from nyc. If I can get an updated parts list I can start the hunt.

To quote Dan
O-rings:
The o-rings are 1/16” x ¾” OD, I got the o-rings from McMaster-Carr I am using the FDA compliant (Buna-N type) Part number 9555K17 @ 4.29 a pack of 25. You will need 4 o-rings per Unit.
4 per unit x 150units = 600 max
Thanks but too many
