After reading 100 pages from this thread, I fell in love, just ordered a Vapman + the Station. Can't wait!
Just received my beautiful lil' Yew Vapman kit. Thanks @vapman .
@vapman I would be in the market for a third vapman if you sold charred and finished vapmans? Vapmen? . I think there was this awesome vaporizer reviewer that made a teaser vid but never ended up making a review that had a black Vapman.
@vapman If I take apart my complete pear tree, would I do able to char it? Or would it just mess it up because of the finish.
What would you suggest be the best method? I'd obviously keep the mica off
Gentle extraction is creepy, you don't feel much but suddendly it will hit you like nothing else. Some owners of the station would probably confirm this.
What about SS or ti? Have you made or given thought to making vapmans from metal?@Phenix: There are no new woods planned at the moment, we still have ash tree in stock. What I know is, that I won't make ebony units anymore, unless someone is supplying the wood and picking up the finished vapmans from the workshop. Since March 2017, the regulation for rare woods became stricter, special certificates (Cites) are needed for trading and shipping. This is why, I took the ebony mouthpieces off our shop, shipping these goods became real risky. Vapmans made of ebony are real rare species, there are only a very few out there. If someone wants an ebony mouthpiece, just ask us by email and we can send it as a mouthpiece without mentioning the name ebony or jacaranda. As soon the name ebony or jacaranda is mentioned on an invoice, the customs could confiscate the mouthpiece and even fine the receiver!
There a plenty of legal and beautiful woods around, these new rules don't bother me much.

Many woods that are intensively used for music instruments are now covered by CITES. I have read of whole orchestras that had their instruments confiscated when crossing international borders. It always depends on whether the customs officer in question already had the latest in-service training or not. Quite a difficult situation.
