    The Maple and Walnut I bought were only labeled 'figured'. Some of the walnut was burl or crotch wood (all gone), some plain as Jane, some nicely figured. The Maple is pretty consistently figured. Species??? Who knows, but it is very hard. The Dark Fins are a lark. :D They are fun and safe...

    Hey Wavy, haven't seen your sig in a while. No beefin' here. :cool: Glad you and some buddies are enjoying. I enjoy makin' them for folks. Sending them into the void isn't as rewarding. Live Long and Purple. NoSmoke, touching up a PD body is pretty easy. Depending on how rough it is you can...

    Hi everybody, this is pretty strange. :) My first reaction was that it's a spoof. :o There are certain folks who hate the PD. Their a strange sort. We certainly are not involved in this in any way, and until VapeNow responds here, or we are in contact with them, nobody knows what the facts...

    Funny you should mention Ash and odor. Just yesterday I was turning Ash dowel material for the hardwood plugs that go in the bottom. Pammy brought some iced tea (my favorite drink) to the shop yesterday and almost immediately commented on the wood smell. That it wasn't the usual odor. It's...

    Here is a new video, related to Dark Fin Technology. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcEK7gV00gg The item is a Crookes Radiometer. It has dark fins and light fins and there is a difference between the two.

    I like ! :D In a few days I'm gonna be asking you how you did it. I've just barely started looking into screen printing. I figured it was harder than it looked. Home-made screen? Speedball ink?

    Lwien said, "But Tom said its not an issue like it is with the VG, so..." that might be interpreted that I said there was an 'issue' with the VG. NEVER said anything like that, (and realize that's not what you are saying, but you know how people read/see what they want to...). Said, "Not an...

    Lwien, since the tube doesn't get so hot there seems to be far less 'smell/taste' issue than you might suspect. Not an issue, with woods I have tried so far. Pammy mis-placed her rosewood tube last night :uhoh: and it wasn't till it was found that things got back to normal. ;) Yep, that...

    kalinga, the hardwood tubes / stainless tips are press fit (no glue on any of our tips). The hole shrinks back a tiny amount after the bit exits and makes it a good tight fit. I think the best cleaning method would be some ISO or Ethanol on a pipe cleaner, the type with stiff bristles and a...

    dadesign, I don't know what the fuck you are talking about , or up to, other than trying to stir shit up in this thread. You are doing the same, I see, in the Zap threads. Good for you. Nobody has mentioned zaps here for a very long time and the same is true about the PD in the zap threads, till...

    Redwood is a lightweight softwood species. Not suited to making a vape. Alembic uses cocbolo bodies (or did). Played one once at Midwest Music. Heavy as hell. Too unique a sound for my taste (and way more money than I ever...). Very ringing. A trait of the cocbolo. I struck a 3 x 3 x 24" piece...

    Pseudo, I'm sure doing a veneer on the complex (not exactly parabolic and each different) shape of a PD is way beyond me. :uhoh: But you bring up an interesting idea. Here are two 'pencil holders' in a familiar shape. ;) Cocobolo and Tea Tree Cherry insert. It's a neat idea,technichally I...

    I have made a Macassar (sp?) Ebony PD. Way too dense. Transmits too much heat to the exterior. ie. not a good insulator. Why insulate, to keep the heat stored in the heat exchanger, not drained away. Unfortunately the dense woods seem to be the 'pretty' woods. These dense woods make the temps...

    Dave, I think Pammy didn't bang a few of those tips home. I saw that she had changed her technique the other day and pointed it out to her. Not sure why she was doing it that way. :uhoh: So sit the tip on a scrap of wood and give the white end a whack (easy whack). The hole that the tip fits in...
