Ok folks, waiting for updates.
FYI for those that Followed Bugout's show...
His new show starts tomorrow on VapeNet from 2-4pm EST. (Weds) It's the same name: The Ecig Advisor w/ BugOut Machine.
Hoping everyone had a great Thanksgiving and survived the Black Fridays or really Thursday night mobs and got most everything you wanted, needed or just could not pass up. smiles
I want some bloody details from those brave enough to deal with the Real World mobs....
I had fun watching the little cyber people flock to site to site, crashing some and then hitting the forums to complain and cheer their scores. Yes, with old age you mind wanders and you can see things no one else can...
My scores were alot of DIY Flavors to start the journey of making it your self juice. I haven't played Mad Scientist since i was a kid. See you do revert back as you age. snickers. I finally got my Steel Punk in from FT. Only took 15 days, so I feel lucky. Gosh, that is an awesome mod....

I got this one because it was the dull Brass one. They have the shiny brass one as well.
Very! He is one of those hosts that likes to interact with everyone. He gives out coupons and giveaways but makes them games like "pick a number". He seems genuine and unlike a lot of hosts he seems to really care about the community as opposed to getting "vape famous".
Box is on its way to @ceejkay i found out this week they are now looking at A form of bone marrow cancer! I wish I could go back to Saturday and poof make the box be on its way sooner...Unfortunately I can't, but here is what arrived...
For some reason it's slow loading pics, so let me post the tracking number and I will be back later for the other pics!

My BIG scores.....
Thursday night - 2 Cokes from the Murphy gas station because Kroger was closed and I don't do Wal-Mart - However, just trying to maneuver through the edge of their parking lot was enough to make me need Valium.
Black Friday - dynamite couldn't have blasted my arse out! Serene Saturday - I decided that I am through shopping for newer, shinier mods and that I'll just keep on using the old Faithful, mini Provari. As a result of that revelation, I treated it (and myself) to a PV pass-thru, so I won't even have to get new batteries. On Wonderful, Cyber Monday, I spent the afternoon, evening & night in the living room floor, surrounded by bits and pieces of my wall heater - that had so far, refused to work for it's keep this winter.... Thanks to efix, eHow, u-Tube, a good cussin' & a whack or two - It's now trudging away doing it's job & I'm more than toasty!

Now I feel bad, I was watching cyber people run around and you were trying to fix your heater. I should have been helping you in my mind, crazy old man style instead...
laughs
I do love ehow and efix, and have used them both.....
Old people are not lazy, just cheap.....

I'm still here and I expect to receive Box # 2 as planned. Thanks!
Don't feel bad @tick22 - I had such a good time with my fam, that I've decided to put my place on the market & move next door to my youngest son. He came and took care of some outside stuff today... you can help me declutter, pack & move.... in your mind, crazy old man style. ROFLOL.

@tick22 I drove 2hrs to work, worked 12hrs and drove home another 2hrs and then came in at 11am on Saturday. We were swamped with new customers on Friday as we had juice at 50% off and ego starter kits at $10 off. I made 200+ bottles of juice on Friday and another 100 on Saturday. I spent the day at the VA in Indy asking the same questions over & over and getting dumb looks in return and no answers.

I know all about the VA and asking smart questions and getting dumb answers that have nothing to do with what I ask about.

Thanks for the welcome @Mommay ! I appreciate you guys running everything and I am excited to follow through on our Photo Album when the project is complete.
As I mentioned to Richard, when I split the boxes from a single one into the two separate ones, I contributed but did not take a single item because it was technically not my turn. I shipped both boxes out at my expense and I tried hard to monitor it's progress until my Moderator status was taken. So it's my hope that I will be "PIF'ed" back as proper. Richard suggested I be removed from Box # 2 after some of you spoke. That is not acceptable and defeats the purpose of the spirit of this project.

Bug, I must not let Tick22 take the full load for the decision to remove you from the list. There was much discussion & deliberation between us. We tried to weigh the options, be fair, take into consideration what was best for the VU PIF community in general & finally came to the conclusion that we would use the same protocols that had been used on previous non-active/non-responsive participants. There was no indication of your forum participation, your were no longer a member of VU and we had had no further contact from you since I attempted to get PIF participants info from you over a month ago. After all things were considered, we jointly made the decision. You were then removed from the list, with the option of being re-added if the situation changed. Well, the situation changed yesterday when you returned. Honestly, I don't understand you being 'miffed' and accusing us of defeating the purpose of the PIF project. The purpose was to benefit the participants of the VU community and you were no longer a member of VU. It was never our intention to be unfair or that you to be cheated out of what you contributed to the boxes & the PIF community. I am sorry that you seem to have hard feelings. We took the steps that we personally thought were best for the integrity of the VU PIF Community as a whole.

I'm going to have to agree with @Mommay. Even though I am not in any way "in charge". I don't think anyone intended on disrespecting you. The box was closed to VU members. We've seen a few people be dropped due to inactivity. One day your account was deleted, your last post in this thread removed. Idk, about anyone else but I personally assumed being deleted = inactive on the forum.. But, now that you're back and active, I don't see why you couldn't be put back on where you were. I don't think you need to have any hard feelings regarding an account no longer here on the VU being removed from the list.... Just my opinion
I would like to add, if I may, that @BugOut Machine did announce that he would be leaving this forum and also that he would like to continue following this box. Personally, I had no problem with what was happening then, since he did inform us of this. He very much participated in the progress of this box when the original person that started the box went completely MIA, to my knowledge.
I don't know if my vote counts, or not. But I think @BugOut Machine more than earned his place in this box. He played a very large role in it's progression.

I posted the tracking, I just could not get the pica to load. Box should be there tomorrow
Tokk these, and also the spare Atlantis Tank. For some reason the other pics will NOT load, UGH! I added a couple other things after I took that picture above! But the other files all say too large, the ones of what it looked like coming in. I did include some ReadyX, 2 packs of Elf Wick, Jvapes juice, and the infamous Banana Nut Kringle, and some others! The thing in the middle of the pink vape band was an ego connector.

Great pics! Don't forget everyone that we are putting together a nice photo book. Try to add yourself to the pics if you can or want. Or maybe a note with your VU username?

Also, did anyone take the Tesla mechanical mod that I put in the box?
Based on the pics, I think Damwow did?

@Damwow , how do you like the Tesla?
I'm so glad that people are enjoying gear and juices! I'm most interested in trying different wicking materials and some drip tips if any are floating around. I'm pretty good on juices these days. Also, @tick22 , I really appreciate you plugging my show but I'm actually now broadcasting on Thru The Fog on Thursdays.

I picked up some rayon and angel hair from box 2. Really enjoying the rayon, but still haven't tried the angel hair. I read on the cotton man's site it's not great for dessert flavors? Thought that was kind of weird. Said it's best for fruit flavors. Really like the rayon, though.

That's good to know but also kind of strange! I don't vape fruit flavors at all - most of my current vapes are Rice Krispy Treat variants from @Smugface or @VAPOLOCITY . I enjoy baked goods a lot like cinnamon buns, pancakes, etc. But fruits are not my forte. I'll have to find out why that specific brand is only good for fruity flavors. Thanks for the heads up!
I do vape some fruits since I started DIU but not nearly as much as as dessert flavors. I'll try it out, still. Just found that odd. I looked at the cotton man's site to find out if I needed to prep it. That's what it said.

Wow that has been through the ringer. I'm surprised they mailed it in that condition. It will have a new box after I get it because my mail-people won't let me ship anything that's been used more than once, especially if the contents were/are liquid.
For those that come after me - I will be making juice at work - that the boss is donating - do you have preferences on nic strengths? @Cloud79 @CurlyxCracker @BugOut Machine I can make sure there's stuff you'll at least try. And if you have a flavor profile preference I can pick from our shop flavors to suit your requests.

That box looks like a really old flag! I vape about 7mg juices, mostly fruits and vanillas variants. I really want to try some different flavor types though. Desserts or something else sweet. I am down for anything except tobacco flavors.

Ratio totally slipped my brain also. I like the 70/30 vg/pg blend. I feel for anyone with an allergy to anything. I have to refrain from touching metal and dirty things or my skin goes crazy and makes me wanna bite it off!

Hell, that must be a really bad thing to have. Who cleans and does dishes, how about eating, silverware is metal and what about dirty, well, never mind on that subject.

We can do min of 20% pg for most flavors, I know we have a few I can do at less than 20% pg. I'll double check my list tonight after I get home from the VA & PM it to you.
