probably just gotta yank that guy loose. if its spinning on the wood its just friction fit now (glue came loose, probably from heat). main concern is going to be the heater mesh being deformed from spinning/grinding on the glass. wax up the wood really nice first to try to make it less brittle...

I think i might prefer long xl8r to medium 508 stem. It absolutely cools better but it seems to mute the flavor and I don’t get as big of hits with it (i think it’s muscle memory not knowing what to do with just cold air coming in). long xl8r = flavor and throat feel. it’s probably similar to...

TCR isn’t going to give you bigger clouds per se, probably someone with really good wattage technique will get a bit more out of it. but it makes it infinitely easier to get nice clouds and avoid combusting accidentally when riding the line. the Z will give bigger clouds and easier hits. is the...

Couple sneak peaks: A side project for my side project - thermal camera for QC'ing heaters :) working on the guts of an all in one unit (AIO) - using a wismec r80 board, with a 21700 battery sled, thin atomizer to show the potential footprint of the internals - basically two batteries...

508phineas at it again - https://www.instagram.com/p/CZrxxxnlKep/ this was an instabuy for me. not at all practical but should make for some amazing photo ops

try tcr 125 on the regular splinter

its a shame, its really interesting looking stuff but the guy I got it from cut it all weird. most of it probably not big enough to do a body at all, I will figure out other uses (stem/dab tool handle/stand/etc). 2nd pic shows how its not squared

Maple Burl / Spalted Tamarind - thinnest ones I've done, I was working off some wonky cuts. lost 3 bodies so far - also I cant stop buying blue mahoe, I just really like it and the variety in it -

any 18mm should work with it / should be enough clearance on the heater. TCR varies, I like to start with 90 and work my way up. there may be a burn in period over a couple days, Im sitting at 112 / 358F on my daily driver but thats pushing it dark. yeah that chechen (carribean rosewood) really...

sorry, I need to make a guide or something but it sounds like your settings aren't quite right in temp control mode the wattage is the speed of the heat up. picture a triangle where the sides are resistance, TCR and temperature. these all combine into your final real temperature. probably your...

wow did you convince him to do this color lol its dead on, what a great find

are the ceramic plates brittle? i would not want to add an extra potential breaking part. especially in the wood oven ones. been curious about wood as an insulator 19/22 glass width - it varies by manufacturer and piece but the 15mm heater width should fit inside the glass ———— mini update -...

i use the microwave mica sheets. its kinda looks and feels like a piece of cardboard but it holds up to heat i’m using 316 ss mesh 26 some dimensions: glass overall - 55mm 19/22mm joint mesh - 170mm x 15mm insulator - 16mm x 38mm mesh accordian length 47mm and i made this for folding the...

@Shit Snacks ^

I will say, if you use locked resistance, you can edge up the ohms like +.001-.006 and get really really thick clouds. I know you can do the same by raising temp but it seems easier to nudge that way to find a baseline. my avb is super dark and I know I'm riding the line of combustion but I feel...

new batch finished up - lighting isnt great, its been cold and dark lately lol. top row - purpleheart, redheart, blue mahoe x4, red canarywood bottom row - chechen, zebrawood, chechen x3, marblewood

I have a tool, its flat and diamond shaped (small flathead screwdriver probably work) and I like to go around the outside of the bowl - poke in and lift up in place, then tamp back down. minimal mess. its not quite a 'stir' but it makes new air pathways and will cook evenly

Update post - in between batches right now, I bought some more parts and stuff to try to improve a few issues. Oven screen - the rig I built for forming these was made out of wood, it worked great for about a dozen or so and then lost its shape. I have metal stuff coming over the next few days...

white would look classy af
