Well that was a much simpler explanation than I was expecting. Thanks! Now I need to learn to roll a wick.

Roll it on a paperclip. I use the Jack Frost wick. Cut my mesh, fire both sides of the mesh with my torch until nicely oxidized, roll on the paperclip and insert wick AND paperclip into the wick hole. If it's too big, just keep rolling between your fingers until it fits. Leave the paperclip in the wick and hole while you wrap your coil. The paperclip gives you resistance so you don't squish/bend the wick. :)

A "fatty" wick is gonna be about 3x-4x bigger than a premade zen wick if you unroll it and measure. I'm with vapor, I never actually have measured one.

So whats the fix for misfiring on the ASH, having a bit of an issue at the moment.

Have you tried cleaning the switch? Take the switch off, remove the screw and wipe all the parts down with No-Ox-Id or alcohol, put it back together and it should be better. Make sure your positive and negative screws are still tight on the leads? How's the battery?

It's here, and it's baaaaad--in a good way.

Uhmm, did these all come with white O rings? I ordered white O rings from Mike a while back and told him that's what I was going with from now on given my handle, so I'm not sure if that is coincidence or not. Either way, I'm digging it. It's got a formal wear vibe.
Mine arrived today too!! :banana: And you're right, it does look very formal with its little tuxedo vibe happening! :laugh:

I haven't filled it yet, just keep looking at it and picking it up and smiling! :):):)
