    share that dab stash! (picture thread)

    I was gonna shoot you a text about the Skunk, but yeah dude I love how they winterized it. I do pretty much the same thing as you, pull a chunk off, stretch it thin and wrap it in to a little O. The way I load it is I have a dry 20 coil, place the wax O on top, the squeeze another 20 coil on...

    What was happening was the Herc was heating up but not really getting to vape temperature. It'd only melt the wax and have it leak or pull in to the mouthpiece unless I held the button for almost forever. I fixed it, though. The bottom insulator wasn't making great contact between the Persei...

    Is anyone having trouble with using fresh coils?

    Oh yeah, I mean that the NX replaces the mouthpiece of the Bender. The Bender is like an Extreme Q bowl and the glass joints in these types come in industry standard sizing at the joints. It's mouthpiece is just a glass stem mouthpiece with a male adapter joint. So if you buy the correct...

    Yeah, I think the Bender is 18mm, so you could get a 18mm-14mm female adapter and then have the NX sit on top of the 14mm. Head shops sometimes have smaller mm adapters so yeah, totally possible. I like @ataxians approach better though.

    Yeah, unless you're going to get the Bender as a primary device, you don't really need it. I thought I would need it for the SR-71 but this thing doesn't need that much time to heat up. For the Nibbler X, I'm assuming you mean this one. If so, PM me and I can sell you mine. In this way, you...

    The Nibbler X is just a mini-bubbler that sits atop an Omicron cart / can be jerry rigged to other devices, if you're looking for a new consumption device, this isn't it. If you find the vape from the Omicron carts is hard to manage, then go for it. Between the SR-71 & Bender, it depends on...

    Thanks G. So do you think a drip pan is feasible? I find the worst part about leaks is having to clean the slotted shaft and bottom of the ceramic rod. Fitting a drip pan above these pieces would keep oil off of them, and maybe also the bottom contact piece.

    I've been experimenting with ways to fix this without having to put a bigger coil altogether. I have two 20% pieces of coil (unloaded), and whenever I get a bad leak, usually from overloading or a runnier oil, I melt the wax out from the lower heating chamber back in to the top so that the coil...

    @THC SCIENTIFIC G, how can we go about replacing a piece of the Herc? My slotted shaft (the piece that receives the bottom of the ceramic rod) got bent and when I tried to reshape it a side snapped off. Also, I was wondering if you guys have a release date for the black rods?

    I had terrible luck with fashioning an herb chamber I posted about last week. A few cuts and a burn and I decided that I'm better as an idea guy. So now the only other idea I have would be something like the Solo's glass stems, or a glass platform with small holes that acts as a median between...

    If you add a regular load, which for a 40% coil is .3 saturation, .3 load, I would feel pretty comfortable adding .2 extra. So yes .8 in your 40 coil, maybe more if you treat it right. For me, each session takes out about .3, so I always put extra so each load is two sessions. I get slight leaks...

    Glad to hear you're enjoying the Herc on easy mode, let's get you on boss mode. The Herc is a cart, so you can put an extra .1-.3. You can think of extra this way: aside from the .3-.4 that saturates your coil and is considered the "buffer," each load is another .3-.4. Anything above the .3-.4...

    It was my understanding that the Cera cores are different prices between the stainless or titanium? About a hundred bucks, if I'm remembering right, so $99 stainless, $199 titanium. In any case, the reason why I brought up that the Cera might have some moving pieces that aren't yet refined was...

    "No VG use in sight," boss, until you said it now. Sounds sick. I'd really like to use wax with VG, for flavor and also for scent. See if a ratio exists for something that smells socially acceptable while getting you zoned. Can't wait to see what you come up with, especially since these...

    I think that post was for me, but yeah, FTP was a free 8th. About a 15/G quality, it's real nice for being free, and a great way to test herb in my Hercules. Too bad I lost my blue rod.** Using the flush coil as per your suggestion Caligula, and it's pretty great. The Skywalker tastes very good...

    It's looking much like an Apple vs Windows battle here, and they're colored appropriately, but I'm pretty sure these initial comparisons are gonna change tune once the Hercules is sitting pretty on a few more months of user technique. Getting the new coils and rods down, even more so. I believe...

    My thinking was that the original 12 sided shape would have two (or three if possible) layers of screen, the outer for some protection and evening of conduction. However, instead of the sphere or dodeca, I'm now thinking a short cylinder like you suggest, with two or three layers, would be...

    If the first model works out well enough I'll try to find some. I do not have patience for mailing, so it'd have to be local. Yeah, I'm not that handy. There's a mall kiosk that sells little metal beads, some are dodecahedron shaped. I figured I could just tighten and hammer a screen over a...

    Sorry to be so late, buddy, but I'm glad you got good advice and results. As an alternative to your problem, I'm working on an impromptu coil / herb mod. I'm gonna buy a screen (safe metal) and shape it in to a small dodecahedron that splits in half and is held by a hinge-cut in the material...
