You ROCK @dynasam ! Thank you. That is the one on the slow boat. The square edged one should be here today. I also order some precut lengths of some b-glass 7740 5/8" tubing. A bit spendy but should be worth the extra effort. Wanted to see what quality level they deliver.

You so need to post that in @mr_cfromcali 's page! ! Yes, exactly! Do you want me to print a pretty case for the battery?

LOL... and they ALL suck! hahaha

Me making videos never works out well.

You can do this @stark1 . It's about tools and Harbor Freight.

Again, I don't doubt there are dangerous units out there. Again, things move around in the back of a hot trailer. Mine isn't in a hot trailer anymore. It checks out in every other way. I just need to park it on the stove and put the heater to it so I can pull it apart 100%. Just lazy.

Making a blank somewhat true to the bore is the first thing to tackle. A long 5/32" drill bit wanders a lot. Then you have to get the receiver for the VC true to the bore [8mm]. Can you square the ends [patience]. The turning of the blank can be somewhat suggestive of what you're after. I...

It is literally in a fireproof box LOL. No way, I love my Alpine 2020! Don't touch. properly built, no worries. That reminds me, I need to make sure it is properly built. But I have designs on it. When I can get them for $20 in bulk, I think I can upgrade them. Certainly worth a little...

Yes, and yes @stark1 . TY

It's a full up Alpine @stark1 . It covers my day. A heavy day is 9 watt hours of usage. Alpine 2020 has a 11 watt hour capacity if you fully charge it like I do. 45 minutes to a full charge using a digital charger that provides assurances of accuracy. Amen Brother @ataxian ! Haven't put...

Its still this one @stark1 - FlatPack

Oh that makes so much sense. Of course a smaller dose could use longer bake time while being much more forgiving. I wonder how similar a Caldron would be to the VHB if it used a 2S battery pack. One could easily convert a PSM to 7.2V. Not doing anything less than a packed 1/2 bowl, I never...

I'm definitely in the sip&dip camp on how to use the DV. Never seen a torch and likely never will. Long live solar chargers! I have an official IH, the Alpine 2020. The switch clicker in the coil is too harsh - bits fall onto the clicker and they usually add a singe component to the flavor...

Build nice or build twice... :D VHB has a separate fire button. Always been the best feature. After that we can talk aesthetics; it's shiny too! Now; how do you like the bake? :cool: There is no other metric.

LOL You know it! :D

Toothpaste is a good safe thing to use for metal polish. Thanks @Alexis

I like the metal lathe as it has a slide for control. And the tools are fixed rigidly so they don't go flying about. I do most of the shaping with sandpaper on the lathe. I have some Rosewood blanks coming to play with.

Did you miss this one? https://www.etsy.com/listing/852667167/dynabox-brick-induction-heater-for? Looks like he's up to doing some custom art on these things...

I'm still happy with my order. Can't wait to improve it :rockon: ...:doh:

Next month @stark1 . Looking forward to that review @thunderstealer1337 .
