@204Markie $286 CAD???!! Thats incredible! So they definitely did not charge you duties! Sold. @vapman check your mailbox! Please :D


Well, Vapman became my 'go to', replacing my crafty. Crafty still had it's place. Exchanged broken crafty for upgrade to mighty. Last 6 months Mighty has received alot of attention because it's new and I wanted to put the dosing capsules to the test (plus I like it)... I've also recently added a Sticky Brick Jr to the collection, so I've spent much time learning that vape. All 3 of these vapes however, i rank Great!! Don't think I need anymore vaporizers. I'm thinking like some of you brothers (n sistas), the station may officially end my VAS.


I understand the temperature of the Vapman will directly affect heat up time, but each increment on the dial is an actual increase in the temperature output of the station no?!?

Read the manual on the website.

I saw one of these funky "Plasma-lighters" (so electric) recently.
Has someone tried out them with the vapman?

They look killer, and could be nice.. provided they work with the vapman.

We discussed this a while back, no chance. The tiny battery that supports that spark has a tiny fraction of the (heat) energy needed to make vapor. Like the spark that lights your torch, you need fuel to burn (like Butane) to supply the many calories needed.

The will light a cigarette because it can use the cigarette as fuel.

Save your money.

@vapman - ever thought about integrating a mini grinder with filling aid into the egg casing? i love the case design as is, but wouldn't mind it being a bit larger with added function(s) (i also want an integrated torch AND some chocolate ;) )- a bit more swiss army vape ehm knife feeling :)
Btw who cares about medical approved - it's about time for some military approved vapes, would make the world more peaceful :D

So, you may call me a purist, but I like to keep things simple, and since the vapman always worked so well for me, I never got into water adapters etc.

Then not so long ago @bounce5 asked me about it and she said, "Until you use the vapman with water, you really don't know the vapman." - or something along those lines.

So I decided to try it but I didn't want to spend any money on a glass piece that I would surely brake... I always break glass pieces. Hell, I've even cracked some wood pieces! Just ask @phattpiggie!

Anyway, long story short (or at least less longer), I McGyvered myself a Ghetto bong and it worked awesome.

Bounce5 was so right!

I Don't understand enough about the mechanics (or hydrolics?) involved, but it was like supercharging the vapman! Remember when Mad Max flipped the switch on the supercharger? Well that's how it is.

I know this isn't new for most of you here, but I don't know why I never tried it before, even after seeing the videos of some of you guys doing it.

I wanted to post here to motivate those who have never done it to give it a try. It makes an incredible difference.

:peace:

Any Chance Vapman is at the Mary Jane in Berlin?

Sorry, I wont be in Berlin at the Mary Jane, if yes, we surely would meet up! Talking about meeting up: Anybody traveling Switzerland is welcome to visit my workshop here in Biel.:)

To be honest, I never thought about making a grinder, may be because there are so many original and copied grinders out there? The guys from Verdampftnochmal (funny pun in German) in Berlin told me once, that the mflb grinder fits perfectly on to vapman. I don't have such a grinder and never had the chance to try it out.
Anyway, making a grinder which fits in the egg would be quite a challenge and I wouldn't want to make the egg bigger as it already is. Beside this, making a new injection mould for the egg costs around USD 18'000, it is more a question of economics than feasibility. In case you have a good idea, let me know!

Who knows, may be in ten years time, Victorinox or Wenger, the two swiss army knife manufacturer, might make a knife with integrated vaporizer and grinder. Everything is possible, at least almost everything.:nod:

So I was looking around and I was curious, does ED still make wood mouth pieces for the vapman? or would @vapman be willing to make some custom wood mouth pieces as I think it would be a great addition to my vapman collection!

I am not a specialist in making mouthpieces but I am open to customized parts for our clients. In case you don't know, all the mouthpieces for mflb also fit vapman. This is a coincidence, I found this out when I bought a mfbl when they came out years ago. Some time later I met Forrest Landry, the inventor of mflb in Barcelona, Spain and told him about this. He was very intrigued by vapman and especially by the wooden mouthpiece, a few weeks later, MF also had stems made of wood in their range. The world is huge but sometimes it is a small village where everything comes together!:)

Anyway, long story short (or at least less longer), I McGyvered myself a Ghetto bong and it worked awesome.

Even when you make something cheap out of a disposable plastic bottle, you are always concerned about style and looks, in this way we are real brothers! Ugly things don't work half as good a products with style and aesthetics, we both know about this secret. Well done and as mentioned, it looks really stylish!:tup:

To all of you, take care of yourself!

Imagine, grinder and stems are interchangeable between mflb and vapman without knowing or talking with each other before. Magic Flight is about ten thousand miles apart from my workshop! This is pure magic and not enough, I even put one on top of this: when I compared the weight of a Launchbox with batterie with the weight of vapman and leighter, guess what happened?:lol:

@vapman Didn't thought about the mould cost - but a cheap way would be a wood grinder (with similar shape of 2 vapmans bottom to bottom scaled up to egg diameter) that could be attached magnetically to the bottom, kind of a egg nest :D

I have found another interchangable tool from another company in germany - the mighty/crafty filling aid fits almost perfect on to a vapman, maybe grinding the outer bottom ring 1mm for perfect fit. Nice, bc it stores 5-6 vapman bowls :) solves the loading on concert problem...

Btw the victorinox midnite manager works nice with vapman screws, so tiny but also with a led and a pen - most used tool in my life...

Love it! But not really my idea of the ideal Guard Cat. I'd much rather have him at attention, in Spinx pose, with the VM between his paws.....snarling? Not nodding off on the job.......

A bit like 'who watches the night watchman at Guinness?'.

With that hat he's wearing, he doesn't strike me as the Guardian of the Vapman...

I think he's been hitting the vapman actually. He's a lover not a fighter. Haha

Yep, exactly. Self indulgent cats we already got......

In the good old days we allowed them to live with us because they caught rats and stuff. Then they got unions and cell phones, now all they're willing to do is call the exterminators and wait for lunch. Which we, of course, provide. On time and to their liking? We invited them in, now we're staff?

In the Middle Ages rich folks often put geese out in the castle halls at night. Seems they make a hell of a racket when bad guys try to tip toe down the passage past 'em. Real castles really had few in residence (too expensive for the taxpayers....), effective guards that work for grain and table scraps (which of course you take from the peasants or taxpayers depending on your POV).

I was hoping to at least get that much benefit back from another cat to feed. I mean watching one little VM? How hard is that?

The Guard Cat position is still open I guess.

I'm glad you gave it a shot! I have to agree with Vapman, for a ghetto bong - that is pretty nice looking. My first ghetto one for the Vapman was a beer can and a one-hitter. I moved up from there to a homemade beer bottle bong, and then to some proper cheap chinese glass. I kind of miss the beer bottle bong...it's fun to experiment.

and i thought cats hunt anything that hatches from an egg...

Good point, although I'd never heard it put that way. Takes in birds (of course) and reptiles and amphibians. And fish, most of them hatch from eggs. And insects, which would also include pupal forms (which came from eggs, although the cats don't hunt pupa AFAIK)? Cool.

But they're also big on any mammal they can bring down, often hunting in groups to up the anti. Our domestic cats have an entire classification specifically for their 'mousing' prowess:
http://pestweb.com/pests-in-the-news/be223bd/killer-cats-10-best-hunting-and-mouser

Years ago we had a strange but skillful mouser, a true natural who grew up in an upstairs apartment longing for the world outside. Then we took him to our house in a quiet part of the city with his own yard and a door that let him in and out anytime he wanted.....he went nuts of course. To the chagrin of the resident (older) cat, who'd rather sleep. One night he brought in a mouse by random chance, chaos ensued, he dropped the near dead critter and split.

Next time was a near repeat, he came back in again with another prize and proceeded to 'play' with it, leaving blood spots that contrasted with the tiles on the floor. This is where we made the fatal mistake.....'don't freak, let's distract him with a can of his favorite food, I'll grab the mouse....'. Worked, too. Too well.

Cat owners know what happens next. A deal had been struck, fresh mouse for a can of food. Simple. Any cat can follow the logic. And modify the drill over time to bringing them in quickly (still very much kicking......) to get the treat. Which of course digressed to making eye contact with us in the doorway, dropping the mouse and racing to the food bowl. As the confused but very grateful mouse beat little mouse feet to the safety of the unknown. You haven't lived until you hunt down a mouse at 3AM in your underwear, trust me on this one. We found one by smell before calling an end and starting locking the door. Little SOB had slipped under a closet door and somehow climbed into a godawful umbrella stand inside and forgot his mess kit and canteen. I've no idea how he managed to climb into it and couldn't climb out? Maybe got a running start outside? There were a couple of umbrellas in it that didn't seem to help.

So they hunt vermin as well, trust me. If they'd limit it to birds (much easier to run down inside, especially with a few feathers amiss) I think they'd fit in better. Even the other 'egg layers'?
