Did George tell you that you would recieve the matte finish version, did you request the matte finish, or was it a complete surprise?

I not only didn't request matte but I didn't know what that piece was until someone here told me.

Worked on some more OmniVap betas,
I reviewed some of the posts that refer to the Omni. I found this pic that George posted on page 124. It shows a variety of knurl or blasted patterning on the Omni bodies, but all have the same design where the kurled area is limited to only a portion of the polished body.
I have only recently seen full blasted bodies in the last few pics posted.
I wonder if the pre-orders are given random bodies that George has made including those in the above pic.
I did not think to request a specific Ti body when I ordered the Omni as I thought, at the time, that the body would be polished Titanium with knurling at one end.
My super fantabulous order should arrive later this week. Who knows what body will be revealed?
I hope that I will LOVE it!!!

The matte titanium body, which I also have feels better in my hand and grips better than the shiny titanium when spinning. That's the one plus I can offer for those curious. It's nice we have an option for future omni buyers.

Did you request the matte body or did know that the matte body was being sent?

I'm not the OP you quoted, but I did receive my OmniVap yesterday and it came with the matte finish, I did not order anything other than an OmniVap, I guess matte finish is how the newer ones are going to start looking like. I frigging LOVE this thing!!!

If you saw back a few pages, I got a chance to visit the DynaVap laboratory. I had a choice of what was in stock. I went back and forth on which one I really wanted to leave home with. The overall feel is what won me over on the matte finish. The shiny one is eye catching too though, so it wins on that bling factor. Both are great, you can't go wrong with whichever one you receive.

Get a short wood body and it won't matter whether you have the matte or polished finish- you'll never use the ti body again lol

Good point!! LOL!
I do have a Blackwood short body coming to me in my order this week. I just had an expectation of what I would be receiving and now I realize that there are a few different Ti bodies and that the one I will receive has been randomly chosen.
I do love your Omni dressed in the Blackwood....VERY SHARP!!
No big deal. I'm sure I will love whatever comes and as you say, I will likely favour the wood short body anyway.
@buckhakeesah
Yes. I remember your report on your visit. That was a great report. I didn't put two and two together that it was you and that you had a chance to chose your body in person.
(what an odd sentence 
)

Yea, i think il only use the ti body for when I need super durability/splash proofing or if I'm going travelling, because I can thoroughly clean it with ISO... But as for every other time, the Blackwood rocks! I don't even know if I really want a burl body any more!
Personally, I received a polished finish ti body, and if I'm honest, I'm glad I did because I prefer the polished look. I'm not a big fan of the look of the matt, but it might feel nicer... Don't know- but I'm glad I've got the short wood body. It's perfect in my eyes!

How do you use the hemp fiber with the vap cap. I got some in my order. Dip it in oil?
Thanks in advance.

That was my original train of thought as well. It is the reason I ordered a spare Blackwood body...
A Woody configuration for the luxury and beauty if offers, and the tough as nails Ti body for hiking and camping or any situation where my beloved vapcap might be placed in the path of an oncoming vehicle. 'Cause we know it will likely weather THAT storm! LOL!
Thank you @VAPEHUNTER for sacrificing your Woody for science. Hereafter refered to as the "Truck vs Vapcap Durability Road Test".

I needed a blackwood vapcap in my life, so I just went ahead and got a TI woody and an XL kit just to see how it performs compared to the omnivap. Will report on my experience once I get a chance to compare the two.

Hemp fiber has a few different applications, and probably many more than my understanding. It can be used to clean your vap and collect your reclaim, or as a kushy (pun intended) bed in your bowl for hash, resin, life or concentrate of choice and as a filter inside the plastic mouthpiece.
Here are some bits others had to say about it....
Using (these days, usually) a hemp gum fiber filter in vapes is actually quite common practice around here on F.C . . .
As you will see, your filter traps particulate of all sizes, and it eventually ends up virtually steeped in oil!
So, the next thing to do is to reclaim any potential loss, and actually vape the cotton or hemp fiber itself - for an extremely heavy & sedating hit! Perfect for end of the night rips from the nightstand
This is why hemp fiber is better and preferred, but using pure organic cotton is also acceptable.
Have fun with your experimentation!
What I do lately is pick up a q-tip, swipe the amount of oil I want and with a toothpick or other pointy tool remove the old cotton from the q-tip without touching the oil. Then I wrap the tail of the cotton that is left while removing it around the oily part and stick it in the bowl! I use the same procedure usually to clean the Vapcap as well while it's warm! Super efficient! Nothing goes to waste!

I had trouble fitting the xl into my glass tube and it was because I had the orings in the wrong order. 1 of them is slightly bigger than the other 2, that one goes in the middle right under the mp. Sometimes the bottom one catches a little still, I just lick it to lube it a little like another poster suggested.

Does everyone realize that this forum is on page 200 at its 11th month? July 21 will mark the 1st year anniversary of this thread.
@VapCap, George, you've come a long long way in a very short time. Congratulations for making your dream come true and for creating and bringing such a beautiful piece of functional art to us. Will there be a 1 year anniversary, limited edition Vapcap???
Like maybe a Damascus Steel short body perhaps??? Hint hint...
She would be a beauty, for sure.
Just sayin'

Damascus steel would look very nice indeed.
@Copacetic not as expensive as I first thought.
£27/$38/ a length. 12mm diameter by 150mm long.
How about we take a little bit of the star killing supernova precursor element and turn it into something awesome.

The OV I received just has straight turnings on one part. I like it. I also like the variety.
Personally, I think the bead blasted bodies look fantastic. I've been very tempted to stonewash mine.
Here's my Omni next to a few titanium flashlights with different textures/grips. The light on the far right is bead blasted. Personally, I would really love to see an titanium body with some really aggressive knurling. Also how cool would a titanium/Damascus body with some tritium vials be? Although there may not be enough material on the tube to make it work.
Bonus picture, 14mm short Burl VonG in my favorite travel piece. I'm still working on an album of my entire collection which I'll be posting when I get a bit more time.

Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing.
Get a short wood body and it won't matter whether you have the matte or polished finish- you'll never use the ti body again lol

Love the blackwood woody @herbalist33 !
I just got a blackwood Vong and it rocks.
I am just worried that the wood is going to get a groove after sliding into a glass joint over and over. I tried using an old silcone sleeve from a glass gong but that was too thick.
Anyone have a tip on this?
I love the thick wood and it doubles as a shorty dry stem too.
5000 posts?
Wow!
I had to get this one in.
I don't know what else to say, but this forum has been the foundation of this project and my entire product line for everything following the original VapCap and PyroVap which is all I had when the thread was started.
So thank you FC and the entire participating community. Your thoughts and feedback are most welcome as this is what has helped shape and form this dare I say it, new category of vaporizer?
If I am crossing the line please feel free to reign me in.
It looks like I will finally get the VonG shorts and short bodies up on the website tomorrow. More products coming soon too. We took a bunch of pictures last week and will have many more things to show too.
Like this unit.
When I found this material, like so many things these days, I immediately thought, Hmmm, I bet I can incorporate that into a sweet vaporizer.
It is Mokume.
And there are many more cool things to come!
Cheers,
George

So I ran some ABV through a 5 stage grinder discarded the first stage and pressed the "ABV keif" in a pollen press I think this may be a way to conserve the herb. I now have a very very fine extract and a ultra fine pressed extract im not sure what their thc/cbd ratio would be but I'm interested. Vapcap likes them. Had to ad a SS screen on top of the ceramic screen though.

I love the mokume. I think I'm going to have to block this site on my internet. I love everything George does and that is very bad.
I looked up mokume to see what it is. Beautiful. But in my search to see items made of it I ended up at a damascus steel site.
I think that indicates that George needs to make both mokume and damascus steel stems. I still choose the mokume though: wood grain metal
