Sir Bonsai,
Do you ever burn your fingers taking the cap off after leaving it on for a dab?
I find the handle gets hot if you do not take it off immediately after the last intake of product.
Have to admit the gold looks great. But the rainbow is hit and miss. My rainbow joint looks more like tarnish black with some blue. The other is ok. But compared to the HE colored ti, this stuff looks amatuerish and not even close to the site pics. I would have gone all gold had I seen how poorly they were done. Looks like we, well the paying customers anyway, all financed [sic] learning venture into colored Ti. Ok for $30 nail. Total BS for a $300-600 nail. Seriously that doesn't bother anyone?
The d-nail forked handle works with the Liger caps (although actually my Storm Cell doesn't work with it, strange!) and does not get hot at the handle IME, even when you 'leave your hat on' while you dab It is also a little longer so prevents one from hitting their wrist with the hot carb while holding it from the handle (especially those of us with big hands).Yep,
There was a prototype cap called the Honey Hole a while back that would burn the skin off of your fingertips! lol
This has been a long time gripe of mine. That's where the design for the skelly handle was born. The heat doesn't travel through the skelly handle as much as the older designs or even the contour handle. I find I can grab the tip of the skeleton handle when it's been on for a while. But this is the first handle this was possible with, I used to use little pieces of silicone on the tips of all of my older Storm Cell and other Ti caps to protect my fingers. You will see little green rubbery nubs on the tips of the storm cells in my older pictures pre-skeleton handle lol.
I also found a cool little hand blown glass holder for a few bucks on IG that holds the Hurricane perfectly so I don't have to keep it on there, But I still forget and do sometimes of course.
Contour will get a bit hot after a while but if you grab the very tip it's manageable. But the skeleton handle disperses the heat enough to keep it cool enough to leave the skin on your fingers

A firehose of excuses. Man obviously the bucket parts that get directly heated will change color. Obviously there will be variation in the rainbow. But that variation is HUGE. Some look great and some look like botched easter eggs. Why not fix the issue instead of minimizing people's concerns? I'm like the third or fourth person to bring this up. And I got the same dismissive response.Yep,

They look good to me? unfortunately it doesn't matter because it's going to change color as you use it. Check out the one in the pic above. I don't remember If I got that one in Purple, or rainbow? But I think purple and it is now a blue purple blend? I don't know but it's been heated for hundreds and hundreds of hours, soaked, torched, cleaned, and reheated lol. Mine change color so often I don't even specify what color I want any more.
But I will tell you that every rainbow will look different. IF you want to know exactly what your Liger will look like just get a single color. My baby blue 16mm looks awesome!
Odd, works with mine though the threading is a bit short like on the hurricane cap.although actually my Storm Cell doesn't work with it, strange!
It's about 1cm longer than the CCA dabbers, I suggested that as the length for the dabbers and I think Josh will make the change at some point.herbivore21 how long is the d-nail fork?

I already emailed about my order, very politely, several times and got no response. I had to make a new email account with a provider I don't trust (because gmail rejects everything from [sic] and other places with known security problems) to join a forum that I never wanted to be a part of so I can DM you about an order that's over a month late.If you would like me to help you with an order, DM me your info and I will make sure your order is 100%. If you are waiting on anything you paid for I am not aware of it, and if you are asking for a replacement of a sub-par product, I am also not aware of it. Message me and I know Josh will make it right.
If you aren't satisfied with the anodization color, I am pretty sure Josh stands behind all of his work and would make it right if you received a "botched" one.
Personally I think people are expecting too much exactness out of the rainbow. I don't know if discontinuing the rainbow color or putting a disclaimer that they will all look a little different underneath? I think Purple, blue, gold, and silver is enough of a choice and nobody has complained about those colors. I like my rainbow finished ones but I knew they would change and morph slightly over time with heat, which they have.
Either way if you have ANY problems with your order that you want corrected message me and let me know your info. Josh has been pretty great so far about taking care of his customers.
Do you find, with this approach, that often people no longer wish to help you with issues?I already emailed about my order, very politely, several times and got no response.

I don't know you, and I don't trust you with my personal information, nor do trust this site with that information. So yeah I'd like my order taken care of, but not here on a public forum.
Gmail does filter try to make a new accont.@DatFire Gmail does not filter out mails about SiC
Feel your frustration, but please, if you come for advice, take it and then leave it. And @mrbonsai420 has helped many members before and is offering to do the same for you, yet it does not seem OK?
I have also been kept in the waiting line many times since getting my first Cca710 gear, but Josh has always come true, almost always making up for the extra wait with some extra things.
So... Sapphire, do they also work in V2. 0 20mm buckets?
Still rocking my V2. 0 and still happy with it. Being from Europe helps in not getting more because I do not like paying customs jiji... Broke my SiC dish the other day, and when post man came with replacement I had to pay another 35 euros on top of the 'normal' price. Friend got a v3. 0 and was charged another 65 euros! People from Europe should keep this in mind when ordering.
Ps: no European retailers in the future?
Pps: anybody know anything about the Hexnail collaboration?
No, usually an email works, and I dont have to join a forum to get information about my order. Also I've never had an order be over a month late with no response from the seller. Their choice not mine to do customer service here. mrbonsai420 just told me a few posts ago that the Betas do customer service on this site. But he's not affliated with company? Which is it?Do you find, with this approach, that often people no longer wish to help you with issues?
@mrbonsai420 doesn't work for CCA710 and has absolutely no obligation to extend himself to try to intercede on your behalf.
You don't have to trust anybody nor do you have to accept help from anybody.
But in that case....you're on your own, partner and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Well they don't anymore. Not for new members.Long time Gmail user and have been in contact with Josh for over two years, not one mail got filtered, not even placed into spam folder.
Just saying, ymmv

What do you want to know about HexNail collab? Actually the girls from HexNail are experimenting with CCA devices to optimize temperature developement controlling of the Hex Nail while paired with CCA devices. So they are doing with nail products from other recommended producers. And how the Hex-Nail girls are writing on the Hex-Nail thread they love the CCAs a lot.
Hi @HexNailAva,
thanks for your statement. But what do you mean with 'own controllers'. Will Josh get some Hex-Nails to control and optimize your preseted temps for the Liger himself or will there be special HN for the Liger?
