Ok please correct me if i'm wrong-- I've been through a large chunk of this thread and have acquainted myself with the complications of VG-based infusion. buuut-- What I have in mind is 50/50 vg/pg with perhaps 5% vodka as a solvent, and clear shatter. If I heat on a cup warmer setup for ~6...

I've been vaping naturally extracted tobacco liquids; it captures the whole tobacco alkaloid which is neat, and some of them just taste phenomenal. Single origin tobacco, custom blends-- the classical tobacconist revived for the digital age. So i'm considering just making a spliff mix. maybe a...

Sorry for jumping in at the end but is there a current consensus as to the best e-liquid recipe for tanks? The OP mentioned separation and I feel like filling a tank with a nonhomogenous solution will lead to coil failure.

Hey, how have people been using hard hash in their turbo tubes? I've grinding it down and mixing it with greens, or just doing little single-hit bowls. Also, I think the power port has receded or something; my power plug is popping out with little provocation. I jammed a little bit of cardboard...

Mine was here in 5 days, America to Cardiff :)

Just saw this thread. New excuse to get my old top out of storage! I imagine you just unscrew the old core and screw in the new one. It's completely foolproof, as the entire core comes out quite easily. I've done it a few times for cleaning. Pretty sure the top bit (top of the top) just pops...

Damn, are you grinding your own glass now Alan? And speaking of glass, the glass tube/glass bowl (HI diameter) provides an unbeatable vaping experience. The airflow is tops. I've had mine HI-Top for a few weeks now and I just love it. Though the old top was more one handed. I guess the...

Just tried the glass bowl with the glass tube-- Quite nice. Probably my favorite combo, functionally. The tube is still fairly thin (But the glass much thicker than the glass tubes on the old top!) so it's a good diameter for the mouth. Nice and cool too, and a good draw. But the mahoe tubes...

Sooooo my Blue Mahoe HI core Top arrived today :) Left the Maple Top in the states when i left, 3 months ago. Here are my reactions in progressively more narrative format. she arrived with 2 wood tubes and one glass, 2 silicon tip 1 glass tip. The wood/glass is my favorite because it looks...

I knew it would look good but that is just fantastic. Well turned Alan! Ahhh I can't wait until I can hold it in my hands. It must have soaked up a lot of wax. Helluva lustre

Lol that is brilliant; i've been using the same method as g-vape. Ninjahands. Thanks for the updates Alan. My life is mad and hectic right now, as I'm moving to Wales on wednesday. Nice to hear that the wood is holding up. And how about that microwave? Madness. Has the color changed much? I...

I bought the wood from puerto rico... I've never been, unfortunately. It was a seller on Etsy, but I think the shop has closed temporarily due to the hurricane, because i can't seem to find them now. The wood is blue mahoe... It's really dark and complex, at least from the pictures. Though I...

Welcome aboard :) Also, Alan: Wood shipped monday. Pretty impressive considering that puerto rico took the brunt of hurricane irene. Adds yet another layer of mystique to this piece, if she works out And I had a thought re: Top design. In my experience of it, the top's only weakness is that...

Hey, if anyone is having trouble with screens, a handheld hole-punch, for paper, does the trick nicely. It wont completely bite through the metal, but it will leave you with the imprint of a perfect little circle to cut out with some small scissors. It's slightly larger than the tube, which...

Two pieces of this left... I just snagged one: http://www.etsy.com/listing/80074082/blue-mahoe-tropical-hardwood-turning isn't it fantastic? It's only been dried for 14 months so there is some definite risk involve, but look at that wood...

Hey I just noticed that link Ed posted. Most of their blanks are narrow but they have: madrone camphor burl bloodwood cocobolo figured bubinga ceylon satinwood the good stuff is all at least $25/person (6inch chunk) and a really nice chunk of ebony. 3 7/8 x 3 7/8 x 12 1/2". $127.... item...

Anyone looking for wood... Check ebay. Wow. Tons of suitable wood

Wow.... Such nice pieces! I think the frankenvape is my favorite; I loves me some attractive asymmetry. And that Tupelo wood is just breathtaking. To quote francis bacon, there is no beauty that hath not some strangeness about its proportions. The price is a bit rich for me at the moment, but...

Just heard from the wood people, and their rose myrtle is pretty green, and they dont recommend drying it because burled woods crack easily. The black and white ebony is $200 for 3" x 5" x 22.75", which is a bit too rich for my blood. And the mexican kingwood tree is pretty small so they can do...
