I do remember seeing the laser vaporizer. Wonder how it tastes. Could do something similar with a magnifying lens in the sunlight. I think maximizing the surface area for the oil is the way to go since the temperature can be lower for better flavor. Wonder if there will ever be more progress on...

Thanks for the best wishes @wolf torn Glad to hear your HI has been working well for you. Nice roasting tube @blokenoname Great use for an inexpensive wooden tube. Have been sketching up the various wooden roasting tube options that I offer in order to get my website updated. Will start a...

Haven't closed down the shop. Doing a bit of glass work at the moment. Fusing some 13mm glass tubes to 18mm glass fittings. Have also been sketching up the various wooden roasting tube configurations that I offer. It will be easier to explain the details than using a photo in many cases. Will...

Glad you were able to get the coil back into a uniform spiral shape @P.A.M. Coil shape does make a difference in performance. The photos show how well the Timber Elite is designed and constructed. A truly amazing device. Nice that you have the skills to take it apart and put it back together. If...

Thanks for posting the photos @Shit Snacks Glad you have the DNA mod working well with the iHeat. I do enjoy the 75C board. Happy roasting

You are welcome @PPN Hope you get the ss foil disc cut to the size you like. Dark spots in the middle will be a thing of the past with the ss foil disc. I am still installing the ss foil lining inside the iHeat. It is the same foil I am using for the discs. It does improve the efficiency...

@Diggy Smalls - Glad to hear you had good luck w/ the foil disc sandwiched between screens. I love the consistency of the roast and not needing to stir. @Haze Mister - Happy to hear your iHeat is working well now. The threads getting dirty can also mess w/ the resistance value. I'm still making...

I use the same tiny screwdriver that I use to remove the fitting from the ceramic base to open the tabs holding the wire/insulation. Stick the screwdriver blade in between the two tabs and gently twist until they spread apart enough that the insulation can fit through. I use some tiny pliers to...

Nice find on the wooden cigarette holders. Those should work well. The ability to change the bulbs is a nice feature if they should go out. Wanted to share the method I'm using to eliminate the wire insulation on the G4 sockets. I cut the wire close to the fitting and then pry the tabs open...

I created the entire LB for Mike, so when you are saying that it is a ripoff, you are saying that I ripped it off. Mike has now taken it to new levels which are way beyond the simple unregulated design.

I designed the LB and it is not a ripoff of the milaana. No wonder you don't like the free iHeat I gave you.

Thanks. The square version is 1-3/4” square by 3-3/4” tall. It could be 1/2" shorter using the shorter 7/16" ss heater cover. The ID of the 7/16" ss heater cover is about 3/8". It accepts 3/8" ss roasting tubes. I mostly use glass Airizer stems with it as they slide right over the end of the...

Happy 2020 everyone! Have been dealing with the death of my father in addition to the car accident, so I'm ready for a better year. May not be able to spend as much time in the shop until I get things settled with my father's estate. I was able to spend a little time in the shop to assemble a...

Happy New Year @Chicken Charlie ! My recovery has gone well. No more need for crutches. Getting around normally again. Hoping that 2020 will be a much better year than 2019. Getting hit by a car wasn't the only bad thing that happened. Learned that my father had developed stomach cancer last...

I am feeling better now, but still need crutches to get around. Itching to get back to turning. May be able to start spending some time in the shop next week.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. Continuing to rest and recover. Making a little progress. The driver who hit me did stop and call for help. They then held my bicycle up in front of me so that nobody else would run me over until the emergency crew arrived. There just happened to be a fire...

Looks good with the Halo Misty. Hope you are enjoying it. I have a bit of bad news. I was riding my bicycle home from the post office yesterday and was clipped by a driver from behind while traveling through a crosswalk with a walk light. The driver turned in front of me and the force of the...

The Timber Elites are looking very good @Bravesst There are going to be some very happy people. The Elite address so many issues w/ portable units. It is as advanced technically as it is beautiful. It is no wonder more people are starting to discover how good it can be. Have been experimenting...

Thanks for posting the video @P.A.M. Glad you are enjoying your iHeat. How is your iHeat treating you @Shit Snacks ? Discovered that a silicone sleeve on my 15mm glass roasting tubes for the HI allows it to fit nicely into the iHeat, Lil' Bud, and Timber. The basket screen is 10mm so you can...

Well done @blokenoname It is brilliant in so many different ways. I imagine the heat up time is a bit faster than a resistor/cartridge. So nice that the light lets you know that it is on and working. Probably a good night light at lower voltages. Sort of like candle / mood light?
