hey tom, I was wondering if there is also a wait time for billy-bowls, and how long is the shipping if I may ask?
Edit: The only reason I ask is because I am moving soon, and would like to know before I buy if it will come in time before I move, otherwise I could change the address and order once I move (Jan 5) and get it at my new residence.

hi everyone.
so after a long adventure i was finally able to fire up the pd for the first time last night. i don't have anything to add to all of the reviews already here. it is a genuinely excellent product that far exceeded my expectations, and that i suspect i'll be returning to for many, many years.
one question i thought i'd ask: what's the best practice for the buzz butter? specifically: 1) how often should i apply it? and 2) how is it best applied? (with my fingers? a toothbrush? a washcloth? i don't know much about wood...i don't even know how to 'buff' something.)
anyway, i just wanted to say to Tom that you have my total admiration for this piece of work, and i hope you never abandon your ethic of taking whatever time you require to create a quality product. mega-corporations could take a lesson or two from you.

If they did, then they wouldn't be mega-corporations. :/Plotinus said:
I butter mine up once a month. I'll put the tin on top of a fully warmed up PD for a minute to soften up the butter a bit, and then apply it to a warm PD with my thumb. Rub it in really good and then buff with a soft cotton towl.

I just ordered it today. I'm order number 3684.
It probably will be a long wait. I am prepared to wait between 12-18 weeks, maybe even longer.
But at least this vape seems to live up to its hype, and seems to suit me most appropriately.

Hey Buzz, yo, to the Bluegrass. Some fine crops and beautiful land. 
+++ Thanks Plotinus. It's an all natural oil and wax combination. Hands work great, I get slathered in it, when giving the units a coating. All food grade stuff.

Just curious, do PD's still go out more or less weekly like they used to (based on posts I read), or has the new equipment made for bigger batches but less frequent shipments to vapenow? Or is it more random than either of those scenarios? No worries - just getting close and getting excited. Keep up the fine work....

We try to stay on a weekly shipment, or thereabout, but sometimes it goes 2 weeks or sometimes two in a week.
Batches can be a big help in production. Once you get in a rhythm things can go smoother and faster. So, getting all vapor tip material cut in one day (today, about a 1000 or so, may slow the weekly output in one sense, for this week, it speeds overall production in the long run. It's not a, build one PD, then build the next sorta thing. It's a juggling act. There are groups of PDs at several stages at any time, but no rigid production line.

Aloha from Hawaii, stoked I got Lucky No: 3688, first time vapor noob, really looking forward to the experience. The PD looks amazing!
i'm about to finish week 10 of my wait. no problem with the wait but it's a bit disingenuous to list the wait as 10+ weeks on the vapenow site. yeah, i know there's a (+) there but still.......the 10 is what people who buy a p.d. are going to base their order from and it's clearly longer than a 10 week wait. maybe 12-15 weeks would be a better time to list.
again, i have no problem waiting for mine but judging by the new posts the line is getting longer along with the wait time.

Oh how exciting Boston!! I'm happy you'll be soon seeing yours
I'm waiting on my 2nd one and a REALLY good friend is now dying to get his hands on one. I'm considering ordering another and letting him have the one that comes next and ordering yet another... Since I already have one... I think it'd be a nice thing to do for a close friend
Order 3197 - Ordered 11/15 and back on the list I'll go I think

My status for #2852 (Oct. 7th) has also been "approved FBA", whatever that means.
Sure am glad to see something besides "PD Wait List" under status. Especially after checking almost every day for the past month...haha

Oh man!! That bites Tuttle!! The package in discreet Amazon package and YES it can be set up in plain view as an aromatherapy device but man, I'm so sorry to hear about the timing.
I'm sure you and your PD will still have some nice bonding time after the in-laws trip
