Glad to hear more Nomads are going out! Observation: The heater ribbon sometimes makes the same metallic pings and crackles when cooling down just like the Okin tongs - and I love that sound from the Okin. So that's a really cool tie in between the two even if completely unintentional.

Thanks, yeah I love the way everything turned out on mine and do love the way the bottom plate and stem match. I must admit Dan said I was the only one to not match the collar and release plate woods 💁‍♂️ - at least way back then. The wood grain on your OG 005 is so fantastic, I always love...

Nice, I was spot on with the battery thoughts than! And thanks, I REALLY love my Nomad as well. Yeah everyone pretty much nailed it. I don't think I do anything special. I like to tamp down the load every few hits. I do start my inhale on the slower side and when I feel the vapor becoming...

Damn, I feel for all of you still waiting on a batch 2 Nomad, I hope you all get it soon! Here we are at the lake today...😬 Speaking about technique: I was worried I wouldn't achieve an evenly roasted load as the herb closest to the stem roasts much slower, so I thought I might need to stir...

I think the beauty in it being unregulated and the different heaters is you can tailor the experience and types of hits you get. I'm a super microdoser nowadays and one stem full of material lasted me like 3 days lol. So with the low heater very log like. Lol oh that makes sense, thanks! It...

Are you batch 3 than? If so I am sorry and you will feel that way for a long time yet until you lay eyes on your device. What do you mean my artwork is amazing? At lunch at the Arboretum. I can't stop holding the thing. Almost fell asleep with it last night in my right hand with my wife's in...

Thanks, makes sense. Nice! It's great that Dan even sanded the do it all tool to a silky finish haha. https://streamable.com/j151v0 Pictures do not do these devices justice and videos barely do. The fit, finish and feel are absolutely incredible. I think I was genuinely afraid of feeling...

Ok, I'm getting closer. LOVE that the device is wrapped in washi paper, such a nice little touch. The stem is SILKY smooth it's fantastic. But I am wondering, as I've never seen this in the quick start guide or from anyone else; what is this stick used for? (@fangorn the resident expert? 🙃)

Mine has also arrived... Yet I find myself unable to open it beyond this point.

Damn, congrats! What is it that's anticlimactic you think? Funny you say that because I got that feeling from your initial post but also as excited as I am for mine to show up, I sort of have the same feeling. Too much waiting? Maybe we're ungrateful lol.

According to Copilot, so take that as you will: "De Minimis Threshold: Under U.S. Customs rules, packages valued at $800 or less are generally duty-free under Section 321 entries." "Country of Origin Matters: If the item was made in Canada and qualifies under the USMCA (formerly NAFTA) rules...

Damn, imagine the customs agent that has handfuls of Nomads all in the same location and has no idea the magnificence they possess.

Anybody receive theirs or close? My tracking hasn't updated since entering Chicago on the 25th.

My tracking says expected delivery July 3rd. 😬

😆 One of the best posts I've ever seen in this site.
