@Octavia ooh that's a lovely toad, it's probably supposed to mimic the raku pottery firing process! Imagine pulling that vape from the ashes it's surprising how much batteries make a difference
@sansei congrats on the lottery win, this one was so dramatic. Some really neat designs on all the lottery Toads this go around

Currently only have the high heater but my batteries are quite old so it’s behaving like a low heater. Was hoping to have the new cells by now but they finally left their initial usps depot a day after they were supposed to arrive
Edit: just checked again and they finally reached my city! Hopefully they’ll be here by the weekend so I can try the high heater’s actual speed!

Ah, thanks! Let us know how it is once you get the new cells in. Congratulations on your beautiful acquisition!

I once met a bloke in a pub who claimed to be a world expert on dating historic ivory. According to him, ivory is not able to be radio carbon dated, and he also claimed to make a fair living as an expert witness for criminal investigations. Anyway, nice buttonWow ... loving #194

Do you remember his reasoning? I assume it’s just that anything older than 50k years ago would have basically no c14?

Dating recent ivory is easy apparently, but old ivory, even 19thC ivory, is significantly harder to date accurately because of the lack of c14

The radiocarbon method (14C) has a maximum age of around 40k years. It is not possible to date older stuff because all the 14C isotopes are gone by then. Of course I don't know anything about this specific ivory but the given time range is roughly the time of the last ice age. Soooo I guess it is just chronologically classified via the context (the layer of sediments) it was found in because a uncertainty of 90k years is way too much to be based on exact dating techniques. In general, often times not the object of interest itself is measured (because often it is not possible) but e.g organic matter around the finding. In this case it could have been super easy: it may was in a pile of dirt (a landform like a moraine) which was known to be from the last ice age (because it simply wasn't overrolled by another glacier). But I'm just guessing.
Edit: I have to correct myself a bit: a moraine isn't that plausible. There are much better geo-archives from the ice ages where you can find undisturbed fossils to reliably date them. But I was just trying to make my point that it is not the hardest scientific task to assign a rough age like that to a fossil.

Love this one. Mine coming in Oct. can’t wait.
How do you contact good vibes boro or high artisan for a custom stem?

Probably just run an iso swab through the stem and rinse the screens. When I got mine I just soaked and rinsed the glass and screens, then spritzed compressed air through the body in case there was any dust built up.
The quick start guide recommends a quick cleaning of the brass battery contacts, but mine were pristine and didn’t really need much.
This has become my favorite device to take when I'm out and about.
I use a wood stem, so I'm not worried about anything breaking.
All I need is the toad and a doob tube in my pocket. Easy to load and unload when done.
Bringing along an extra battery can also easily fit in my pocket (cased obviously).
And I feel like since it's convection, I can take a hit and come back to it later without the herb cooking while not in use in my pocket from conduction heat.
Really great product.

Hey guys sorry if it’s getting old but can one of you tell me the approximate dimensions of the standard glass stem Dan sends out with the toads? Still trying to get some custom stems made and I’m trying to get the length and OD of the standard stems Dan sends. Thanks in advance, everyone!
