I have successfully burned off carpet crud when my head hit the floor. Put it outside and turn the PID up, after an hour you can turn it off, let it cool, then any crud left over should brush off easily. The rubies are a different beast, depending on how much got in, you may be able to clean...

That looks perfect! How has it worked out for you so far? Do you have plans to sell any of them in the future? :brow: I posed nearly this same question earlier in the thread and Cal did some digging just to put me at ease. Basically, if your temp gun is similar to ours, the field of...

So did I, but he replied so quickly I missed the confirmation email :lol:. Shipping on the new PID was confirmed today. As always, fantastic service from @Vapvana!

I do, even when turned off. I need to unplug it to make it stop, I thought I might just be going crazy, glad to know I'm not.

A word of caution, I've broken an adapter doing just this, just be sure to hold the glass! I picked up the bowl by the handle to clear a piece, the adapter was stuck to it, then the adapter dropped off and shattered. A K-Clip might be in my future. I wish TAG was a bit more consistent, my...

GMO, if it smells like dead tooth, it's good!!

After seeing Cal doing all that science on IG Live yesterday, I decided to experiment with cleaning my heater from the devastation of double deckers. I opened it up in the morning, no care given the night before, so I knew it would be at it's dirtiest. Like Cal, I found a good number of rubies...

I tend to disagree, as I use it mainly as a one hit and I'm done vape, and it excels compared to my others. The on demand, instant extraction makes it easy to do one fully medicating hit and be on my way, instead of sipping on dynavaps all day. It is not for the casual user who only needs light...

It was definitely hotter than needed to clean, but I also wanted to see if my stand reacted in any way. Thanks for suggesting a lower temp, I will keep it in mind in my future experiments. Do you think the 800f welding limit is for health and safety concerns, or for oxidation degredation? My...

It would take a lot of chaz or plant matter to build up and clog it, but I guess it could if left long enough without care. The temps we use at the coil should be about perfect dab temps, I've gotten minimal buildup in the few days I've had mine. I did a 900f burn off last night and it cleared...

Salad bowls are great, but who else loves doing a double decker on this? Little dab melted through the gems while hitting a bowl... :clap:🤌

I got a rough first iteration of my heat shield stand made up tonight. It's a steel tumbler, cut in two, and glued to a railing oval. I used RTV silicone for the glue, as it's the only high temp adhesive I had on hand. The inner cup has the bottom intact to protect the wood base (the RTV...

@Zuhdj I had seen talk about a 10-ish degree difference to account for heat lost to the banger in an e-nail setup, and I had seen talk to the 50 degree difference between PID setting and actual head/airflow temperature, but I'm seeing closer to 140-190 degrees difference between PID reading and...

This is what I'm finding, as well. I was drawing strong and fast at first like I needed to for the whip-driven SSV, then overcompensating and drawing too slow to draw the heat through the matrix. After really watching some of the videos here, I dialed in a draw speed and technique that worked...

Yeah, that's the gap I'm speaking of. I expected a bit of wiggle, and had heard concerns about that fit being too tight on previous prototypes. My head fits over the bowl with about .25-.5mm gap all the way around, and has the angled gap you see in the pictures when you grip the bowl and head...

While cool, I can spin the housing in one direction with a good amount of friction, the other direction binds on the coil as well. The cap was tight, still hearing the same gem shifting that I was hearing before. Not a tumbling shifting, but a slight shake. I love tinkering, so this is more of...

The coil to housing fit is tight, with very minimal gem movement, either. The housing to bowl fit has me concerned as a possible culprit. When gripping the head on top of the bowl there is a gap all around. I know Cal mentioned getting an airtight seal without seizing, maybe my tolerances were...

Oh, the 600f setting was not for lack of information, let me assure you! It truly was a FAFO moment because I didn't feel like my unit was getting hot enough after burn off. I didn't notice a smell, and the heat radiating from the unit did not feel as warm as I felt it should be. I left it at...

Mine got delivered today! I'm pretty close, so don't anyone else get your hopes up. First impressions are favorable, indeed. First draw was at 600 by accident, that nearly combusted after a 3 second draw. 500 on the PID toasted, but tasted a little green. So far 520 is killing a half bowl in 2...

You mean there are people outside of America??? Huh... Sorry, bonehead moment there. I bet your wait time may be a little longer than mine :lol:
