    I worked on a fourth regular size prototype yesterday. I made some changes for the sake of efficiency and strength: the center divider is thinner to free up storage space the bottom of the storage side door is thicker for more strength the top is thicker to allow for a 3/8" x 3/8" magnet to be...

    I was hoping that I would have two of them for sale but the blackwood I have on hand is so prone to cracking that all of the ends fell in half. I also had two other custom laminated stems I'm making crack in half along the blackwood so I'm strongly considering that I never work with the material...

    I'd estimate about 2 weeks? There's still some things to work out like herb storage and rattling on the storage side. I ordered magnets and test tubes only yesterday so I'll be waiting a little while for them to arrive.

    Logo?:huh: I haven't even thought of a logo or a brand. For the knives that I have made I've always etched my initials into the blade, but I haven't done anything to my wood working products. I may have to make that touch mark I've been thinking about for a while. Which means I get to fire up...

    Prototype Three: "Slim" Today I completed this third and almost final version of my case. The reduced 20mm thickness fits in pockets much easier and accommodates up to 15mm diameter pieces. I'm hoping to add herb storage when the test tubes I ordered come in. There's a detailed post with more...

    Thanks! I'm getting close now. Yes! Saving on shipping is always good. I should have the design finalized soon, with space for herb as well. I have boro glass test tubes and stoppers on the way that should work perfectly. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Prototype 3 has been completed. This one I made...

    I made a version two of my case with a thinned down hardwood construction and revised Vapcap retention system. It's nearly an 1/8" thinner and can hold about 20% more volume on the storage side. I have plans for a third version with a third compartment:science:. This has been a fun project so far.

    Prototype 2 is now complete. Made primarily from Oak and a bit of Cherry. I made some changes to the dimensions and thicknesses of wood that I used to bring down the outside dimensions while increasing the storage capacity. The thickness is now 25mm versus 27.5mm on the original. It's...

    This stash likely won't be the stash for you then, but I appreciate the feedback and will consider making some different models. :tup: Keep in mind it is only a prototype and I'll likely go through a few more versions before anything is sold. I really didn't want to make something that was a...

    Here's a little peek at a prototype stash I made today. It was a lot of fun to make and took only an hour or so to complete. I've got a lot of changes to make but I'm really happy with the idea. More details are in my thread. I'd been thinking about making a pocket stash for a while but never...

    I'd prefer to eliminate it on the vapcap side since the hot cap + foam is just waiting to make a melted mess. I think I'll find an all wood solution. It certainly is!

    Here's my solution. I added a small retaining hole at the bottom and added a wood spring on the inside with a piece of foam to take up any slack. A bonus is that the vapcap doesn't fall out of the stash even when opened sideways. I plan to move the foam and spring down a bit so that there's no...

    I found out that rattling is a problem pretty much right after I posted:doh:. That's what prototyping is for though. I think I already have a solution for the vapcap rattling but the lighter might be a different story. I'll post something soon!

    Hey guys, everythings okay. I'm starting to feel better now and got to work on something that I've been meaning to prototype while glue was drying. My biggest issues with the dynastash have always been the very narrow diameter of 14mm and the lack of space for carrying a lighter. So I designed...

    Just as a heads up I'll be away from my shop for a bit due to some health reasons.

    The concentrates will wick out through the hemp fibers evenly, so some will touch the sides and conduct heat. It's the nature of the vapcap to always have a blend of convection and conduction.

    Why would they publicly release information about an up coming sale that is months down the road? That's not good for business if they have people waiting for a month or two to snipe a deal that they know is coming. The $20 offer was a one time deal for existing customers that won't happen...

    Sorry for the long time between updates everyone! I've been busy building furniture and dealing with other things life has thrown at me. I've only just got back to my lathe yesterday and worked on refining some of my processes. It has been quite the challenge to work with Blackwood, Birch Burl...
