Dynavap VapCap

Apprently damage from over heating .

 

[stark1]

Can you use a lighter instead of a crème brûlée ( bûrnt ‘cappie ) torch?
Wink. Wink, @ataxian.

That just looks like some burnt on crud. Some oil/resin a bit of flower and heat. Rode hard and put away wet. I'd clean it as best I could and carry on vapin'. Perhaps you are overfilling the cap and material is in contact with the clicker?

There doesn't appear to be a clicker in that cap. Amazing how the clicker vaporized and the cap is still intact he jested. I'd bet that is a genuine counterfeit cap, where did you buy it? DV may miss installing a clicker occasionally, if they do it is a very rare occurrence.

There are 2 clickers inside. They both still click too but the cool down click..... LoL One takes about 5 min all the way up to 10 mins to click. I can force it to click by flicking it when its cooled. The cap was not that old and I did not over heat it. Maybe once or twice by mistake ;p but I don't beleve it was overheating that killed it. I think it was a dodgy clicker but dynavap will not admit it. The shop that I got it from did replace it for me out of kindness thou Thank you Vapefiend!

I have never cleaned it inside with ISO, nor with ethyl alcohol.
It is not so much "oil" as it seems more "scraped".
Is it possible that stainless steel deteriorates in this way?
In almost a year I have only had two combustion (I have not heard the click), I use a common blowtorch lighter.

Is that a crack in the clicker?
That would explain the way its not working.
Kinda looks like a metal fatigue crack.
That cap is freaky clean.

I guess I can't see what you can see, the images focus is soft.
ISO or alcohol at room temp will not damage the clicker or cap.
My cap is cleaner but there are some small bright spots, I suspect what maybe happening is some crud flies off the cap occasionally when it cool clicks.
I've never seen any steel deteriorate like that.
If it clicks I'd vape away, YMMV.

Original (Only needs a little dip and rise by the mouth end to make it racy! ).

This was shaped and sized by request. It's the only one in existence. May it life a good long life

Rogue guy has the quint




-essence. Of flowering quince.
(quin·tes·sence)

 

[TommyDee]

Yes he does. That is similar to the one I use daily. I coined this style as 'Knob'd Quill'. Enjoyed it just moments ago.

You got the eye, Ton.
But the name, keep it simple, and flowing (flowering)

From Dutch clay pipes, to present day flowering quince stems





Ever wonder where the pipe dream bubbled up.

Those long stems are awesome, where do you get them? What do they cost?

Best Wishes to you, @Alexis , in finding the best balance in your Quest!

Some of us sometimes take things for granted. Until things go south.


PS if you can source some Salvia, it is mildly hallucinogenic, less over the Dover cliffs than acid.
Hope you didn’t get the brunt of the storm, Wales got hit pretty hard by Dennis.

Acid is like a walk in the park compared to salvia. I’d rather drop 3 hits and walk into a haunted house than try that shit again. Absolutely horrifying

This was meant to be a limited study to understand 'what if'. For me, machining Flowering Quince for VC stems is synonymous to vaping just because they happened at the same time with the MFLB. How many stems can a guy use anyway? Less than you'd think!

Ya, mon.
But you get the drift.

That needs an M stuffed in the bowl!

 

[stark1]

It certainly is worthy of (mea culpa) blue ribbons.

(Ever notice how Vermont maids (and those in Vermeer) have milky white skin, the clay pipes always reminded me of the similarity)

 

[TommyDee]

Why no, I hadn't noticed.

I feel a mod coming... quick put the VC in the IH so the M-vibe lingers

Hey, we don't have a VC EMOJI! []

Always wondered if present day j-hooks we use with ‘caps had ancestral history with the
Long Dutch pipes. Prolly far-fetched.

It's a natural biological evolution. No one wants to hold their entire arm up just to hold a pipe. Bring the pipe down to the arm!
The Dutch weren't the only smart people on this blue marble.

Same with the long VapCap stem. Much shorter distance to reach!

Speaking of Flowering Quince stems, I'm about to enjoy a couple caps full in mine
