NYC. Our new SS stem tips are bigger than the PD stem you tried but we will have a simple adapter so you can use them in your Cherry Zap if that is your choice. I will also consider special requests to change out Zaps to the latest and last design for the SS stem tips. ob, I am so personally...

ob, I am the one who is in trouble because I did not make any rules. You did just fine but I think you will agree that one name per screen name is the fairest if I am to give away a prize? We will work on assembly pics and get them up soon. They finish up real nice, top and bottom and should...

OK, my bad. If we are going to make this even close to a realistic contest, only ONE choice per screen name please. Any other choices anyone has put out there(other than their one pick) are up for grabs by others. That will make it funner for all. There will be a prize and this will end no later...

Thanks for the good words but we must remember Rick is hanging on to a whirlwind here. Rick does not have the self discipline or resources to do what has been done the last couple months with Aromazap. I have a mentor who has done this before with many other products and he is taking a keen...

NYC, really nice shots of your Cherry Zap. Thanks for putting them up. How is she working? OK, chapter 2 or 3 or 4. Good thing it is Friday night. We had our design meeting. It was very short. Try this. Here is how to install it and keep the heatport centered in a 1 1/2" hole.(heatport is 1...

Nothing to Beta testers til next week. I cannot ship til tomorrow at the earliest and that may be delayed. I also have another design meeting today. When you work with someone who has made a career of designing, inventing and building new products, hold on to your hat. Always wanting to improve...

Vito, you are a sage. "Advice- Polish her often. Respect her. Breath deeply of the vapors." When I made the almost instant decision to send a few units out for Beta testing rather than sell them, I knew there would be some disappointment as everybody wants to be a Beta tester.(good to know the...

NYC, glad you are happy with your Cherry. They do run about as warm as anything and also look very nice. Good to be home, eh? Funny how home is home wherever it is. NYC or the boondocks. Home is home. Turtles There will be a couple more out tomorrow and everything else, Zap-wise, will ship...

bluntmonger Answered your Email. Sorry for the delay getting back. ob, "everything new installed, including new bottoms"? No new bottoms that I am aware of. Everything is INSTALLED from the bottom, if that is what you mean. The one you thought was cherry was the red dyed maple. Out to the shop...

RumbleShorts Thank you for the kind words regarding me turning the wood. What you see are examples of different Zap styles that can be made using the process we now use on the lathe. These were done by the person who is teaching me lots of new things with wood and stainless and business. He is a...

Some RockZap porn. We have some others but did not want to let them all out at once. These are all RockZaps with concrete liners and ceramic insulators top and bottom. These are turned by someone else who will be making more. I would be interested in comments on favorite styles. Also, these are...

We'll get a pic or two up later today. Got sidetracked yesterday at the lathe with no lunch even. Got all the boring done on the lathe BEFORE finish turning the outside of the piece. This was on the traditional top mount install design with no cement liner as we still have plenty of those to do...

Fresh roasted coffee beans! Another example of the simple life beating that of Kings. Ed, some dryers have a front on them and the racks can be put at any height. I would think if you have a dryer where the trays are the front, maybe you could drape something over the front? You do want lots of...

Damn Ed, you are doing it right with a pro picture taker. It makes so much difference, especially with all the colors and figuring in wood that is hard to get in a picture. BTW, very important to keep backing out that tool out when you start using it. An airhose handy is good to keep any bored...

wired57 Thanks for getting on FC and posting here. Welcome to Zapville. And now you have to wait four weeks.................Just kidding of course. I just checked your order(8/2) and there is still a good sized batch of work before I get to your order so I am thinking yours will get out late...

I use a Harbor Freight hand held sheet metal punch, the better quality one that has a deeper throat. I set it in the vise and punch 5 at a time. I use 1 inch rounds but will be getting some sheets of ss screen in the future. If you punch 4 or 5 at a time, the punch will cut the screen clean. The...

You may be the new kid on the block Alan but you sure put lots of serious thought and application to your design of the TT. We often get stuck in the same old routine that has always worked but now and again we need fresh air and new inspiration. You have provided that inspiration in the log...

Thank you Alan. It really is challenging for this old slow poke. It seems I have eaten an energy pill the way every day flies by. This change, that change. Will this screen work? This clip? About out of screen......what do I order? Then the brass............what size if any to order? Will new SS...

Damn Ed, isn't that a pisser when wood cracks like that? Getting the right moisture content is a big part of the challenge. I was told yesterday of using an old fridge with a light bulb and a small fan. Keep it at about 110-120 or so. Supposed to dry wood nicely and will work great for small...

Shameless plug for ALL reputable companies. Thanks for reminding us that is what I did.
