    Making Draw Tubes... Flower Quince?

    And I am to the end of my blanks from last year... 105mm long - just about perfect. Sorry, this one goes in the kit as a spare.

    Ditto! Elephants taste like chicken of course. Everything wild tastes like chicken. Jeff, had you considered an auction?

    Induction Heater MAD Heaters - Innovative Dynavap Accessories

    I hope the code already has a visual tell - say blinking while heating and solid when holding at temperature.

    Not at all @endof3d - I use one-piece wooden stems exclusively. What I have noticed is that wooden stems are susceptible to o-rings rolling out of their grooves. Not that it was a huge monetary loss but I did loose 3-4 of my favorite home made stems to a crappy '20 tip that the o-rings were...

    Making Draw Tubes... Flower Quince?

    I got a nice PM this morning to remind me of my aging stock of FQ that's been curing for a while. This blank was a gamble as a cored blank that wasn't very large in diameter to begin with. It looks like I just beat my own record for length. 136mm is a bit longer than my favorite long-stem...

    Dynavap VapCap

    I am not keen on cracked clickers as they seem to start shedding particles from the site every time they click. You might write DV at teatime@dynavap.com and tell Lori or George that you believe this crack is premature as the cap looks near-new. I would go by whatever Dynavap tells you in that...

    Induction Heater MAD Heaters - Innovative Dynavap Accessories

    @Abysmal Vapor - agreed, I did overly simplify the heater offering from VapMan. And the point being that I too get sticker shock. @Texus - Seeing Sense obliterate Orion sales would make my day.

    Induction Heater MAD Heaters - Innovative Dynavap Accessories

    I don't have a lot in the hopper for pricing on the Sense but I will remind some people of what we've been paying for heaters... And we don't even have to start with torches, which too can be insane for someone as frugal as me. First of all, what does Orion offer to make it 'special'? The...

    Visit the hobby store and get a 2s/3s balance charger @Alexecutioner . I'll keep it in mind to check how secure the charge port is when mine gets here.

    Fluxer Heaters, induction heaters for Dynavap

    In case this was overlooked; Remember that you can tune the full power level of the Flite with a few hardware tweaks. Once you get to know the heater, Jeff will be happy to help you tune it to perfection even without PWM.

    DIY Induction Heater Builds and References

    I appreciate that @berserk6996 . The coil wire wants to be 12 gauge around 33" long. I like 8-9 turns on the ID and 3 turns on the OD on a 15-16mm ID coil. Thin steel wire shouldn't kill a HalfPint. The diver is still a 120W driver. Careful with rings if things are too exposed.

    DIY Induction Heater Builds and References

    Hey @berserk6996 , sorry to hear a FET fried. FETs still give up the ghost for two reasons - a coil glitch or too much draw. Coil glitches are taken care of with soldering the coil to the board. I popped one unit by simply sticking a metal straw in a small coil. It just quit immediately and...

    Maybe we should push VBTL's idea harder to George. I am getting a lot more from the short tip.
