May be time to look at a rosin press!
Looks awesome man!!Picked up a Showerhead and Wrap Around during the 4/20 sale and have been loving it so far. It's definitely replaced my EVO as my daily driver.
I've kind of settled into around 737 uncapped on the SH for herb, and 666 capped on the WA for concentrates.
When I ordered, I ordered the SH as a starter kit, but the WA as a set. I also bought an extra coil so I wouldn't have to wait for a cool down to swap between heads. However, it slipped my mind that I needed an extra coil handle since the WA set did not come with one. Thought about buying another one from NV, but $40 was a little steep for me after just purchasing the whole kit.
Inspired by @invertedisdead and @WAM90 , I decided to fashion my own home made handle. I decided to use a dowel rod and some paracord.
I intended to take pictures of the whole process for others, but that never happened. I was just sort of doing a test run of the handle, and before I knew it, the handle was done and no pictures were taken! I wanted to smooth out the rough cut ends of the dowel rod before making the handle...but, you know what happened at this point.
I forget what size dowel rod I used, but holding a ruler up to it, it looks like 1/8". I cut 8 pieces of the dowel rod and wrapped them around the handle. I got 2 rubber bands to hold the rods in place. I then took my paracord, and using a set of needle nose pliers, pulled it down in between 2 rods. I pulled the cord down about 75% of the length of the rod, just to make sure it would be secure.
I then took the paracord and started wrapping it around the dowel rods, working my way down the handle. I put tons of effort into making sure my wrap was tight, my fingers were hurting by the end. I kept sliding my rubber bands down, and put a few on my wrapped section just to make sure everything was held in place.
When I got to the end of the handle, I wasn't sure exactly how to end it. I ended up just tucking the end of the paracord behind a rod, and then using some Gorilla Glue to fill around and lock everything in. Unfortunately I didn't look closely and used white Gorilla Glue instead of clear. Oh well. I might end up using a red sharpie to color it in some.
Anyways, here's the finished product:
Honestly, I prefer my home made handle over the purchased one from NV. It has a better feel in my hand due to the round nature of it, I prefer the grip of the paracord over the hemp fiber, I was able to make it a custom length (I went slightly longer than the stock handle), and it's lighter than the stock handle.
I use my SH more than the WA, so you can see my handle is on my SH! I just ordered a VRod, and this will be the handle that moves to it!
I made a similar handle, of lower quality than yours, to have a handle on a 16M coil to use as an extra.Picked up a Showerhead and Wrap Around during the 4/20 sale and have been loving it so far. It's definitely replaced my EVO as my daily driver.

Yes, my health and issues had me moving downhill for a time, but I have been fighting my way back... and damned glad to be here!....Thanks for noticing!
) but it's better than living at my Mother's place and sleeping when she's awake (my bed is in storage and I have to share my Mother's bed when she's not using it...in other words its a really sucky situation...
Finally got some news...I will receive my NV FlowerPot Bundle on Monday or Tuesday along with a bill for Taxes and Duties of 125.56$...as if 800$CAD+84$CAD For Shipping and now 125.56$CAD For Taxes and Duties...
So in total, when you are Canadian, expect to pay around ~1000$. It shouldn't be more since I'm located in the most taxed Province in Canada...
What sucks is that I'm also moving on Monday, so I probably won't be able to try it out much before taking it to my new apartment (with Flatmates
I have 2 questions that needs to be answered please!
1- Is the FlowerPot a smelly vaporizer?
2- Is the FlowerPot a Vaporizer that is easy to Combust in?
Thanks a bunch, these answered are what is stressing me for my move...because where I'm going to it's a big No Drugs of any kind, aside from Legal Medications which are obviously allowed hehe
Never had an issue before though I was using Concentrates like Shatter and since they smell different that might be the reason why my 4 previous Flatmates never realized I was vaporizing Cannabis the whole time....
Something is terribly wrong with me, I got some sort of disease. I can't stop thinking about the VROD and how great it is as a all-in-one. I pretty much have been going only flowers but the VROD has me thinking about rosin again and I am going to give the gooey stuff another go.
Damn you New Vape for infecting my feeble mind in a very enjoyable way once again.
Me too.
I flew at 747, but have recently backed down to 710, and am having fun with it.
Exactly my sentiment.
In concurrence.
