Same here, I won't tell if you won't ;). Between my hyper efficient UD and the amazingly designed VC I find myself reaching for fewer and fewer different vapes these days. I still keep buying them for some reason though; accursed VAS.

Trust me, you are all good now. Absolutely brutal combo.


It would seem the VapCap has given me a taste for highly customisable vapes made by an artist out of beautiful cuts of wood.

Thanks for the link bud, I have actually already seen that log, looks like a beauty. Didn't realise Ed's stems could take the Ti-Tip, makes sense seeing as I have a VonG here with his name engraved on it :rockon:

Having looked though I'm going to stick with my HGL plans/schemes. :bowdown: I'll hopefully soon (couple of months) have @Pipes portable and desktop VapCap induction heater tech so I'm chasing a different rabbit down a different hole.:science:

I saw there were some questions about the difference between the omnivap and the TI woodies. I think the biggest difference for me is that the omnivap is pretty much indestructible, and disassembly is incredibly easy. I can see how the TI woodie would be harder to reassemble, since the condenser doesn't have the nice metal mounting piece with o rings that the omni has. I also can clean the omnivap much quicker because of the way it is built. It's definitely worth the extra $ just for the beautiful build quality alone, but performance wise anything with a TI tip will perform the same.

Sorry if this was all covered by others here.

@Lokbok im not trying to get you to spend more of your hard earned cash, but I can't help thinking that if you're gunna spend $115 on a ti-ti, after using it for a bit you are going to want to upgrade to the omni... there's no 2ways about it, it's happened to the best of us:clap:

Personally I'd shell the extra 45 and get the premium vape straight off the bat. Like @Farid said, the omni is slightly easier to assemble and clean than the ti woody, but also trying to find the carb hole on a Vapcap with your finger can be a bit of a pain in the ass- it's nice to be able to set the airflow how you like and forget about the carb.

Anyway, just my 2 pence... in the long run I think you'll be saving yourself money by going for the omni first... VASS comes for us all!

Thinking about it, perhaps @VapCap could add a rough finish around the carb hole on his wooden stems/bodies just like on the nonavong so that you can easily find it with your finger- i find it annoying once you've heated your cap and want to take a hit straight away, but have to pause to find the carb (that split second makes all the difference lol)

I add a fairly significant chamfer to my carb holes when I drill them so that they are easy to find. I had a hard time finding the carbhole on my original stem from Dynavap and ended up making my own carbless vapcap, which lead me to where I am now.

herbalist33, point the cap tab, ("digger-outer") at the "airport", (carb hole)..

You're a genius! Great tip, which should be added to the Vapcap User Bible that I'm hoping @Squiby is working on!

@Winegums il most likely be putting in an order with you in the future, as well as a couple more @phattpiggie stems!

Gotta love this community

Peace

That's one of the genius aspects of the Vapcap....

Thanks a ton.. this is awesome info. I'm seriously having issues deciding on what to get now... mainly due to some reasons I'll explain in a bit.

You make some very valid points and you might be right in that at this price, that extra $50 to just go ahead with the Omni might be a good thing since it's something I'll forget pretty quickly, but not having the Omni might be something that'll keep bugging me in the future if I really enjoy the system.

However.. I was asking some Vapcap questions on Reddit and someone told me they're coming out with a Vapcap "M" before April which is made of stainless steel and will retail in the $50 range. This sounds like it might seriously be an option in terms of entry point for me. It'll let me really test drive the system and not feel bad about getting an Omni later. Are the Omnis just that much more sturdy vs the standard models? How would it be more durable than the Ti Woody models if we replace all the wood parts with ti? Decisions, decisions.. and you folks are making it both more difficult and easier to make one...

In order to get as many people on the Dynavap train as I can I'm going to tell you how to make your own adjustable condenser for less than $.50usd.
I took a Ti-vong and a plastic wire tie, the type with a loop to fasten to the wall, install the wire-tye snugly next to the air-port, carb, whatever you want to call it. Twist the buckle around till it's next to the carb hole, when slid over the carb you can pull on the vape, turn the wire-tye till you get the sweet spot. Now you can try it to see if you like it. Use your imagination. Just about any wire-tye would work, but the loop works as a handle for the vong. Doc

Don't fall of the wall of late reply :rofl:

That's nice to see your black cap from times to times, always reminding me some S&W beauties ;)

However, this stem is wonderful and absolutely classy as hell.
The refinement of it, the mouthpiece integration, the overall smooth design...
This is reminding me my old Montblanc pen, you had achieved a true masterpiece :tup:

The picture is doing justice to your work!
Kudos too about changing the paper towel for a nicer fabric :brow:

Nice family picture! The blackwood NV stem is gorgeous!
I'm eager to know if my custom NV will be achievable! I absolutely love this unusual design.
One question about the middle stash, wich wood is it?
I think that's the first time I saw it, and it doesn't look like the cedar one we saw before.


When I ordered Last Tuesday I was unable to create an account so I had to order with out signing up. At the end of the process I was surprised to see I was not able to choose shipping options (I might have missed it. I was not smoking :) ) and then I was not able to send a note to accompany the order to ask for quicker shipping.

I had gone to the site a few times trying to find a phone number to call but did not locate it. I was confused when I clicked contact us and all it provided was a link to the bottom of the home page where it appeared to me you could only write a note. I tried to write a note but it said that the email address was not good. It was on Friday I finally noticed that the logo that said "719-Dynavap" was the phone number. The color and blend made it difficult to realize it was the phone number. Classy logo .. Im just saying I had difficulty finding a phone number.


I went to order some screens, some O rings and I thought I would ask for the extra glass body I had been offered. I tried to create an account prior to placing this order but it would not let me stating I needed to use a different email address (just a standard gmail address) So once again I had to order without setting up an account and there was no option to send a message with the order. I think that the site does not let you use the same address for an account as you have already used for an order without an account.
First, welcome in the DynaBoat :rockon:
Second, I'm sure that @Web&App will be interested by your quote, he's the one in charge of the website :cool:


I got my Dynastashes back and the holes are fixed perfectly. :rockon:I'm extremely happy with my Dynavap experience, thanks George and Matt!:bowdown:

Man you should see a doctor, you seems to suffer from the worst case of V.C.A.S, as a treatment you should immediately send me half of your stuff,in order to respect the symmetry (wich you and me seems to like a lot :rofl:)

Dude, you vaped 5gs of reclaimed goo???!?! THAT is hard-core.... I have scored none so far, tho I've been using mine daily for more than a month now...then again, I find there's little match-up between "how much vapor (or other trace)" and the height of the lift...I just keep doing it until the bowl is the right (dark) color, then start on another bowl.

I seem to get more predictable results from using my regular grinder; I have a coarser piece, but that hasn't turned to my benefit. I find my only nug success w/ DRY material.

Still, only a month...much to learn

Ahah hopefully I haven't! Not sure I'll be awake at this time if I did it :rofl:
I was talking about the blob coming from the end if the condenser, but my sentence isn't really correct, forgot to say "usually I store it".
But this blob was huge, gave me 13 thick hit, sending me right in orbit :sherlock:

Have you clean your condenser yet? Because one month of daily use without cleaning, this is gonna be a lot of reclaim!!
What you see coming from the end of my condenser is just two weeks of daily (and heavy) use!
IMG_5602.jpg

Let us know your results ;)


A small suggestion here. Before you load up any vape. While still cool, and you are not "Vaked". learn about your purchase. When nice and new and clean the VapCap fits like a glove together. No gooey, sticky, stuck mess. At that time you will see how precise these little beauties are. There is a lot of science here not nearly appreciated enough. George is a pretty smart fella. Doc
These are the words of truth, this isn't said enough!
Some people think that is just metal bits and wood, but when you understand what it is behind, you know that George is a clever guy, and so humble...
When others tries to sell you common stuff with magical words, George sell you magical stuff with common words...

@Kozzmozz I asked George at the time when I happened upon the idea if he'd do some small adhesive disc's with a selection of hole sizes.

I jokingly called them Dynadots. March 2016 I took the glass picture.

Kapton tape works well and it's used in quite a few different electronic vapes in areas where they get very hot, it's a lot less noticeable than paper.

Kapton tape is a fucking good invention, never detach, resist to both high and low temperature, electric isolation..... Used in the aerospace world...
I still hate Dupont, let make some Hemp Kapton made of polyhemp :rofl:

@TheVaporist Thanks and congrats to your - as ever - sophistacated pics! :tup:
Thanks to you man, I'm always glad to enjoy us!

Another week and another beautiful picture! :tup:

:clap::clap::clap:

I really like how the reflection is a double image because of the angle the mirror is at. It almost gives an effect like a rippling pool of water. The mood is mysterious with this one! Have you been watching film noirs?

"Alright Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up."

Ahah, just by reading "film noirsy" I was thinking about Sunset Boulevard, and here you are!
I wasn't thinking about that at the time of my picture, but I can feel that atmosphere now you had said it.
The inspiration for this one was initially the Monolith from 2001, but I wasn't able to achieve my vision of it so the picture had evolved into this, an etheral picture of the vapcap :)

It's been a while since I've posted a picture here. I've got an order in the works but I thought I'd take it back to where it all started, the OmniVap.

I guess I'm the type that likes to jump in the deep end, I went for the top of the line model for my first purchase. I wasn't worried about being disappointed because of all the positive reviews in this thread.

I had been watching the VapCap thread and was waiting for the Omni to come off of preorder status. Then one day, I got in, they had them available at Puffitup! A couple of days later I got to see what all the fuss was about. :luv:

IZ0RlBY.jpg

Hey double quote, how lazy I am :rofl:
Your story is the same as mine, I discovered the VC thread back in January 2016, lurking the thread for a few months and in July I went straight to the Omnivap pre order.
As you after reading all the thread, I was sure to be amazed by this amazing piece of engineering, and I'm still amazed today!

However, nice picture! The balance of it is nice (and maybe unstable? :p) hopefully there isn't wind inside :D


However.. I was asking some Vapcap questions on Reddit and someone told me they're coming out with a Vapcap "M" before April which is made of stainless steel and will retail in the $50 range. This sounds like it might seriously be an option in terms of entry point for me. It'll let me really test drive the system and not feel bad about getting an Omni later.
Thanks for bringing this to our knowledge, I wasn't aware of it personally!
And that's a great thing to see a metal counterpart of the OG, this is gonna sell really well as a starting metal VC!

Nice family pic! The sense as nice grain, and the feel of this katalox wood is lovely!
Another novelty of George, putting awesome things like if it was nothing!
How did you know about this wood?

Although, speaking about your ring flash, may I ask wich lens your using with it? ;)
Gonna lurk the stash thread!

I wanted to introduce you to my VC Family :spliff:

Sorry to say the OG VapCap is not with us anymore as it broke putting a nug in it :rip: :cry:

A BIG THANK YOU GEORGE!!!!!!! :nod:

That's a quick growing collection!
And a beautiful one!
I think this a cedar stash as you said @FreddieFresh, Ed's show us the same a few weeks ago!

@ShovelHead, did the stash smell like cedar?

If only you had Also sprach Zarathustra playing the effect would have been achieved. Either way it turned out beautifully. :tup:
Thanks Man!
Gonna build a rocket then I will be able to picture it on the moon :D

Are the Omnis just that much more sturdy vs the standard models? How would it be more durable than the Ti Woody models if we replace all the wood parts with ti?

the issue of sturdiness really only comes up with the OG (glass) - plenty of posts here attest to that. other than the 'set it and forget it' carb on the omni, there is little if any functional difference between it and all the non-glass versions. if you're a regular sufferer of 'upgrade-itis', then you might as well get the omni and spare yourself the predictable misery, but if you're just looking for the famous vapcap functionality and want a well-made tool that could easily outlast you, you'll be fine with a non-omni. plus, dynavap is on at least their 3rd Ti tip tweak, so any Ti model that you buy now will be functionally improved over models from just a year ago.

full disclosure: I only own a Ti woody (and have no buyer's remorse). this is based on numerous posts by others who have experience with multiple VC models.

The Omni is all metal and virtually indestructible. It is a beast. It is a beautifully engineered device.

The standard Ti Tipped models are also very tough, but not indestructible. If you get yours run over by a truck, for example, the body will likely crack and need to be replaced.

If you replace a wood stem for a titanium stem. It will be extremely tough, since titanium is tougher than wood, but it will not be an Omni.

How would it be more durable than the Ti Woody models if we replace all the wood parts with ti? Decisions, decisions.. and you folks are making it both more difficult and easier to make one...
All Ti Tipped models are fully modular, so you can switch up parts to make other models. If you replace the standard stainless steel condenser with an Omni condenser and mp, then it IS an Omni.

Don't fret too much about your choice. All Vapcaps are fantastic. They all perform beautifully. Choose one that appeals to you. You can always buy more components later. In fact many people love their Vapcaps so much that they have several. I do...

Dive in. Once you discover the Vapcap magic, you'll be back for another.
