Only $10, I think I might try it.
I don't foresee this being an issue with the barrel connector and that 1-2" of lead attached to it. I would not put any shrink near or inside the glass body.@RedEyeFlightControl , or anyone, or there any pros or cons to covering the twisted pigtail with heat shrink? I was wondering about building up a few layers at the connector end and a fat piece over the base of the barrel socket.
It is a little of both. I posted a picture of it, but I can take a better one if it is hard to see. I put a TRWW wood handle around the end, so I am not sure how to hit it with a torch without cooking the handle. I am assuming you also mean I should disassemble the highlighter, since I probably shouldn’t flame it with the wires hanging out.I wouldn’t sand it. There’s a chance the crack may grow. Just hit it with a torch, flame polish it.
I don’t know, maybe sanding it would do the trick. Is it a crack or a chip?
I actually ordered this one as well and I am not a fan. It did not make a satisfactory grip on the HLT and you need to manually spread the gripping part with you fingers just to get it to fit, squeezing the springy part doesn’t spread it wide enough to fit over. You also can’t bend it to work as a stand, the metal started to break and come out of the wood handle when I tried. I am just going with the standard lab clamp that REFC sells.
Go back to post #227Hey. Can someone please explain how to put this together? Also, just a thought, include instructions and tell people ahead of time what tools they’ll need please. This was super disappointing to receive and have no idea how to assemble and also need to go to the store since I don’t have precision screwdrivers
There are a few tutorial vids on my site that go over assembly , here -Hey. Can someone please explain how to put this together?

I just keep my HLT in a ceramic bowl from my cupboard. Works great for the time being, until I can get a proper log/heat shield for it.lol, i just got mine today, took 5 secs of googling to find how to vids, not sure but you may want to work on your googlefu
other words, this thing is fukn amazing, this hits hard like enail elev8r
I just wished I got the lab clamp, now im dealing with it sitting on top of a bowl all the time lol, no vapbong or elev8r or lamart devices for rotation for awhile, my first bowl is just like yeaaaaaaaa
fuckkkk yeaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Omg thank y’all so much for the help. I know I was bitchy in that initial comment so sorry about that. It was a rough day. I got the thing assembled and it’s fuckin phenomenal. I still think some indication in the package of where to find instructions could be helpful but otherwise, it was a fun building experience and it really ripsThere are a few tutorial vids on my site that go over assembly , here -

Regardless of demeanor it's important feedback and I value it - I will likely try to get some pictorial diagrams put together for subsequent kits, when I can find the time. Glad you got it together and are enjoying it! We all have bad days, don't sweat it too much.Omg thank y’all so much for the help. I know I was bitchy in that initial comment so sorry about that.

I still owe you my draft. I’ll work on it a bit today.Regardless of demeanor it's important feedback and I value it - I will likely try to get some pictorial diagrams put together for subsequent kits, when I can find the time.

You don't owe me anything, but contributions are always welcomeI still owe you my draft. I’ll work on it a bit today.
While I would imagine there is a subset of customers who would prefer ikea style printed instructions, I think even just a card referencing the videos/diagrams/other instructions on your site (edit: like "Instructions @ "tinyurl.com/instructionPageURL") would be sufficient for 90+% of purchasers! Just a way to potentially quickly iterate on this feedbackRegardless of demeanor it's important feedback and I value it - I will likely try to get some pictorial diagrams put together for subsequent kits, when I can find the time.
