Would a steel body take the milk paint like the laminate? I really like the way those mushrooms on the last mock up look, though mushrooms aren't exactly what I'd prefer on a unit of my own...maybe a stylized painting of a breeze or something... like, just a few simplistic lines that give the impression of air moving, don't know exactly how to describe what I mean..
For those who want it would you be willing to do custom paintings on them, even if you go with the steel? I'd really love a custom bit of your artwork on your work of art haha would be willing to pay a bit extra if necessary, of course
Yes yes yes, we need more good herb containers! Here is one that a buddy of mine made for me which I love.
I thought those new regulations were specifically geared toward nicotine vaporizers? Correct me if I'm wrong, please, I haven't done any amount of research, just what I read in passing
"Vapor delivery" I suspect will encompass all such devices... just trying to think ahead of the curve and what might be around the corner. In these trying times, a name can make or break.
Holy smokes! Or vapor, whatever. That is amazing. I am in love with the idea of one with the green tint on the left and some rosewood. I think it looks great, personally, can't think of any way I'd change itSome new concept models.
I made this out of wood/paper, then made some adjustments in Photoshop. I feel like the design is almost fully tweaked at this point.
I built this around available rectangular steel stock for the main body. The wood choices will probably be walnut, beech, teak, rosewood...etc.. all tight grain stable woods.
The steel will be available with various high quality surface treatments, paint, DLC coating (perhaps $$$), blue/black oxide patina.. etc..
Model number/logo inlay in bottom right corner etched/engraved with gold leaf inlay.
Glass stem collar to be made in brass, with matte patina.
I want the LED light to be a bit dim, not as harsh as a bare bulb. So I may try to inset a white LED behind a dome of semi-opaque tinted epoxy.
Outside dimensions (not including stem) = 50mm wide x 25mm thick x 90mm high or 2" x 1" x 3.54"
Thoughts appreciated! This is my last digital design phase before making a semi-functional prototype out of the final materials. The aesthetic design process has been long, but I think that the final product will benefit from this early groundwork.
In the mockup I see you have the LEDs as different colors, are you planning to individualize that for each production unit, or decide on a standard tint color for all units? Personally I think if I could get a greened steel body with rosewood a darkish blue light would look nice, for instance
Best yet, I really dig the materials choices and balance of details.Some new concept models.
