Vito, Would you recommend that I just run ISO thru the whip or should I remove the screen? It seems like removing the screen repeatedly would damage it, but I thought I'd ask. Thanks!

I know everyone is talking about the VB2, but I have a question about the EZ change whip that I use with my original VB. I didn't like the air constriction that I was experiencing with the supplied screen, so I switched to the mini metal screens. The problem is that the metal screens seems to...

What size is the ceramic screen that comes with the EZ change whip? I would like to get a metal screen for mine. Thanks in advance.

Dig it. Thanks, paka. Yes, the box does indeed fail the test mentioned in the wiki page. I just drafted an email to Elsa at MF. I'll let you know what she says. Thanks for your time and input, gang. Always appreciated. Love this forum!:love:

No, it's not a battery issue. The box doesn't heat properly with the batteries or the PA. Thanks for your suggestion though. The reason that I think the warranty doesn't cover the cool box is because MF told me as much. I wrote to them once before and they said that they usually don't cover...

I bought an Art Cart box this past summer and it's already running cool. I don't use it daily so it's not like it is wearing out or anything. So I guess I have two questions: 1) what causes the box to run cool after a while? 2) if this is a known problem with the LB, why isn't it covered under...

I never even thought of it that way, but you make an excellent point, Skippy. Off to find my LB and "experiment" since I've only used stems before. It's all in the name of science, you see.

I own boxes in all three types of wood and, to be honest, I think the taste difference is barely noticeable (if present at all). In fact, I wonder if the taste difference is just a placebo effect since I've read that others here do notice a difference. They are, however, gorgeous to look at...

Speaking of loose stems (or rather, loose holes, if I may say such a thing), I've noticed that my exotic wood boxes (cherry, cherry Art Cart and walnut Art Cart) all have bigger holes than my previous boxes. My glass stems are loosey goosey but my wooden stems fit wonderfully. Just wanted to...

Why do the boxes start to run cool after a while?

I wonder if MF will ever offer custom-etched boxes. How cool would that be to submit a drawing or writing sample and have it etched into the lid of the box? I know that some of you don't like the etching on the lid because it can obstruct the view of the trench. I, however, am a fan and would...

Recently picked up a cherry Art Cart box. It's beautiful, but I'm curious as to why it's several shades darker than my other cherry box. I'd love to show you pics, but I can't figure out how to get them into the body of this message. So, if anyone would like to see the images, please PM me and...

I recently got one of the Art Cart boxes (Devolving Forms in walnut) and it is gorgeous. Now I just saw the new Anthropomorphism box and I want it too. This is becoming a very expensive collection. :uhoh:
