It's Ti, which is pretty light by bicycle frame standards. I wouldn't worry about joint stress at all. I'll weigh mine tomorrow and report back.

Yeah, usually by the time I get up to these kinds of antics, my abilities become limited. I'll try to put something together. Also that resulted in a very stuck dish, haha. Speaking of which, yesterday was the first time I used (Klean Strip brand) acetone to clean up, and it is extraordinarily...

Smokin big doinks, it's nice out.

is this thing on?

No issues with my cleaning regimen. After I'm done with a dab, I clean the dish with both ends of a q-tip and then use that dirty q tip to push a cotton ball around the bowl to rotate/wipe the pearls and grab whatever else is left on the dish. I've been keeping a bucket half filled with a...

I've been rolling with the 2 8mm ruby pearls for a while now, and I think they're a keeper. I adjusted my temps down to 501F on the Auber, which gives me a ~418F (sapphire) dish temp (very tightly attached coil). I've had some gently CRC'd Triple Cheese sugar and it's amazing how the temp...

I have a small recycler that works better for me with the Vrod than with the Tbucket. Reason being is that when the 1 hole NV universal cap goes on, it requires more pull to keep it doing it's trick. This guy works a lot better with the low restriction of the Vrod. However, I understand that...

Yeah I've seen those and they seem to sell out quickly during sales. Trying to work out a rhythm where I don't break glass all the time. Then, perhaps, I'll start looking at > $100 pieces Edit: been really interested in the RBR recyclers and Mobius pieces as well for a minute. Seems like I'm...

Yeah, the dish, sorry I don't know. I went for the Tbucket because more folks than not seemed to say it was a smoother experience, and I liked the design better. I like being able to tip the bucket to get the dish out. I think there was also a suggestion that the DCup was intended to be used...

I'll bite. - Tbucket will accomodate angled joints, DCup is designed for 90* - Tbucket doesn't have a lip on the bucket so the dish is free to fall out. (edit) - Tbucket has a longer, narrower air path.

I'm leaning that the 8mm terp pearls (just about as deep as the dish) seem to be pretty ideal for the Tbucket. Whereas smaller diameters will get coated and then "'mohawk" oil all over the place the 8mm don't seem to get spinning all that fast. I think lower speed and having about double the...

710 Coils 8mm Ruby Would buy from again. Got some nice freebies.

I did a deep clean today, to remove all reclaim from the Tbucket/cap. My first session with 2x8mm Ruby pearls was surprisingly clean. Was previously running 530F (Auber) , this session was 500F and I still feel like I have room to move downward.

Yeah it seems like more has been getting sucked into the pipe as well. I did like the extra surface area of the pearls, but i have to see if the 6 or 8 is making more of a mess. I think I might be able to knock 30F or more off my controller temp with pearls because of how much faster the...

Never had an issue. Ti allergies exist, though they're rare. Biofilm ruled out?
