    I learned this lesson when trying to forge Ti. It's VERY dangerous when it burns. Nothing will put out the metal once it starts burning. EDIT: Water and CO2 denature when trying to extinguish it and only feed the burning/cause the metal to explode.

    A Ti cap would discolour even faster than SS and form many bright oxide colours. So Ti really isn't the best choice. Something like Inconel would be the ultimate cap material.

    I'm loving this Claro Walnut the more I work with it. It has some real character where the heart wood meets the sap wood. 18mm SS core VonG Body

    Just a heads up, I have some new pieces in my store.

    Wood turning is hazardous even with a tiny little pen lathe like I have. Spinning objects have an incredible amount of energy. Wood working in general is hazardous because everything in the shop is designed to cut material harder than your body. You need to be constantly mindful of what you're...

    The M tip and Condenser are compatible with other stems and bodies in the Dynavap line up. You would be able to swap into a wood stem anytime.

    I recently picked up some shatter and I've been experimenting with various chamber setups for using oil. I've found that using three CCD is best so far. I have them in the grooves in the following order from the bottom. SS bottom groove>Hemp Filter>SS 1/4 groove>Hemp Wick>Ti 1/2 groove. I...

    It depends, but the M is 10 mm which is the same as the tip and cap.

    The Ti tip fits no problem. All interior diameters on VapCap stems/bodies are the same

    I finally got a solid day of work in, here's one of the 14mm Slim Steel Core VonGs I made.

    I've run a Q-tip through my new condensers and they're definitely coated in metal dust as it comes out metallic grey.

    I know what I'm going to do before walking my dog this morning. Thanks for the story. Dogs notice patterns in behaviour so fast.

    I don't think purified butane is going to effect your health with a Vapcap. Unless you're heating while inhaling through the device there shouldn't be any combustion gasses/butane. What purer butane will do is decrease the chances of your torch getting clogged with residue.

    The steel core does add a fair bit of weight but I can still manage to hold my Blackwood Omni in my lips. The shape of the Omni mouth piece and the lighter weight Ti tip is what makes the difference between it and the M. The balance point of the Omni, (even with my steel core) is behind the mid...

    Here's a pair of custom VonGs I made yesterday. It's been really wonky getting back into things, but the ball is rolling.

    I tend to sandwich my filter tight between two screens but make it very thin such that it doesn't block the air too much.

    Any Downsides to the Vapcap? Anything you would change?

    The draw resistance of a Ti vapcap is proportionate to the density of vapour. Meaning that it has high resistance but you're getting VERY dense vapour. The high resistance takes some getting used to but it seems worth it in the end. Using a VC through a water piece with a wide mouth can make it...

    Wow, that's more replies than I was expecting. I find that I get two or three click to click pulls before I'm not getting much more from the load. I use a tall glass bong to allow myself to see the vapour production throughout the heat cycle. It's typically nothing more than a wisp on the third...

    I'm still confused as to why people are finding themselves waiting for a cool down click? I find that If I pull hard on the Vapcap I can get a lung full and it clicks just as I'm out of room. Anyone else go from click to click every time?

    You get around 90% of the full bowl size, which isn't really that much of a difference that you would notice.
