    Looks awesome Hippie! I had to stare at your pictures for a while before I realised some of the things I was seeing were reflections (almost thought you soldered the thermocouples onto the coil)... Recently I also have been experimenting with my temperature sensor mounting. I now have it so it...

    Hi all, I have been thinking about creating a little water bubbler for my vape since I started building it. A few weeks ago I finally (kinda) succeeded. After a lot of attempts I finally managed to create the first airtight and working piece: I used a butane torch to join 2 12mm test tubes...

    @Vapo engineer Great work! Gota love prototyping setups :D I also have some news to share. Smaller drills finally came in. There were some problems with getting 0.75mm drills, they got lost in postage somewhere. The seller offered me to send new ones but apparently the Delft University of...

    I finally got around to drilling some new glassware ! Actually, I did it a few week ago but you got to test them first, right? :D I first tried putting some isolation and heatshrink around my drill but I couldn't get it to where it wouldn't wobble. So, I left my cave and went to the store to...

    Very nice progress Hippie. I noticed the same effects when switching from a 12mm to a 16mm draw tube. When I get around to drilling again, I will put some holes in a 20mm tube.

    This is the chuck dremel sells: http://www.dremel.com/en-us/Accessories/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?pid=4486 it should be able to hold my drills. But I will try some pieces of isolation first, much easier then going all the way to the store :D. Thank you for the idea.

    Yes I did read your posts about the drilling (and all other 54 pages :D). I used 1,5mm diamond drills. They didn't fit in my dremmel so I had to use a regular hand drill. That also made them a bit bigger I think. I did find a new chuck for the dremmel at my local DIY store, but I still need to...

    Hi, Stoomboot here reporting on some new stuff. My PCBs came in a few weeks ago! Lets start with some pictures: I am very happy with the result. This was my first time designing a PCB and I also never soldered SMD components before. There were a few mistakes I made. The first one that...

    Ah, yeah that sounds very sturdy. I will make plenty photos when the PCBs come in. I almost can't wait. A real PCB should make my vape a lot more usable, the perf-board I currently use is very fragile and I can't easily attach it to the vape itself. I plan on mounting the PCB in a ABS enclosure...

    Looks great Hippie! Do you think the PCB traces will hold up after a lot of connecting and disconnecting of the deans plug? I figure there will be a lot of stress on them since deans connectors (at least the ones I have) are very stiff. I also have a small update myself: I ordered my PCBs a...

    Hi all, I would like to report on some progress from my side. There are a few things I did. Fist of all, I hammered together a new case :D. I thought it would be cool to put aluminum foil on the inside trough I don' t think it really helps with anything. This case holds the heat much better...

    No I din't make PCB's altough that defenitly is someting I want to do. I already had a look at some PCB manufactures and they are not that expensive. I also tought about making them myself but because I need a duallayer PCB to route the displays I don't think that wil work out verry wel.

    Hi FC members, A few months ago, a friend and I decided we wanted to build a DIY temperature controlled vaporizer. We drew up a few designs but none of them where satisfying. When we came across this tread while trying to find inspiration, we were imminently convinced of the Bud Toaster design...
