@bobskinner , You are correct. Under his profile, it does say his last activity was on Wednesday. I didn't even look right under his profile avatar. I go to the profile, check all the tabs & see if there's anything. There wasn't any "RECENT ACTIVITY" and it shows the last "POSTING" was on 10/13. However, he must've logged in on Wednesday afternoon. I wonder why he didn't answer your PM or tag. It had to show up for him, when he logged on. ???? Maybe he is opting out. I'd hate to assume that, but... If he comes back after you've mailed the box to another person, he can always be slipped back in - unless you guys, or Sigmardin, decide otherwise. I must be tired - I'm rambling. The answer to your question is in the first two lines! o_O

That might be a tough one and folks might end up with more piffable stuff than they started with, stuff that someone down the list might actually have a use for. Juices take up a lot of space and are most likely what will be added the most. I won't be adding any juice, I had originally intended to put in some 100mg nic base for DIY and may still depending on how much room is in the box once it's all packed up.

Maybe there could be a future iteration of the pif box where folks could sign up for a juice box only and then another box for hardware related stuff only?

I think, regardless of the splitting or not, it might be nice to see the box twice to see how it evolves and also by the time it comes by again I would have some more stuff to put in it... For me at least 1/2 the fun is in the opening of the box and seeing what's inside, even if there is nothing I want.
I was thinking the same thing. Just have to get those packing skills in.

They should've Bubble wrapped & used double ziploc baggies.... Not good PR, for sure.:( If peeps need various sizes of zip-loc bags for the PIF box, I have sizes tiny to large, I'd be happy to mail. However, quart size Ziplocs will allow a 30 ml stopper bottle to stand upright & several will fit. A sandwich size ziploc will hold several 15's upright. Also, replacing the dropper tops with screw-tops helps lower the possibility of leaks. I bet the pharmacy could provide a few screw on caps that would fit. The lid size for glass 15 ml bottles is 18-400 continuous thread & 30 ml bottles is 20-400 continuous thread.

Definitely going to put in some bags when the box gets to me, I've got a ton of them, in 2 different sizes, that way anybody after me can use them, and I'll make sure to bag everything I find that needs it.

How about we make it a rule that you aren't allowed to split the box, but must take enough out of the box to make it all fit?

Sig and I had discussed the splitting of the box, if it got to big we knew it might happen, so we are prepared for it :) As he and I planned on checking the box, I was gonna check it as it got to me, (well he was too as he is right before me in the list lol) then the second check is when it is sent to him from heather so he can pif out for Rooster. Also if it gets to a point that you feel it should be split anyone feels it should be split you can send it back to Sig or myself and we will split it then as well.

I think most people are aware (now) that the box can get too big and are more likely to take stuff to keep that from happening. It's nice to have a back up plan. My observation is that people do sorta self regulate naturally.

I have heard from baltoace and have his address.

There was only one liquid in the box that leaked ever so slightly. It was wrapped in paper towel and in a baggie. There are a few bottles without baggies which I will put in a baggie before sending off.


pix @bobskinner :D lol..

I like the idea of going from the bottom to the top, if the box gets to big. Glad there is a plan though. It feels like it is taking forever!! Longest vape mail wait

For some reason I didn't get any notifications that there were responses here and I've failed to check the posts :( sounds like questions have been answered though and @bobskinner still hasn't posted pictures lmao

Most of the stuff I will be able to add in will probably be juice as I don't buy devices very often. I have a bit of pride in my coil making abilities and was wondering if anyone would like me to throw some pre-made coils of various sizes and resistance in there?

JediTT do you just make RDA/RTA coils or do you also rebuild coils for evods/protanks? Would love to see some of those in the box if you do. I'm sure a little japanese cotton in one of those would blow stock kanger coils away.

I jumped into rba/rta shortly after I started vaping so I didn't use EVOD/Protank type stuff much but I'll check it out

Well I guess with only a few minutes left of the weekend here in Colorado I should probably post some relevant pictures...

I did not take a picture of the contents as I received it since that has already been shown.

-First picture is the box with a hat (it goes on your head and keeps it warm, it's a hat...)
-Second picture is what I took out. I had a hard time not taking the 26650 Tobh atty but don't need it right now so I left it in the box.
-Third picture is some of what I put in, I packaged some stuff at the bottom of the box before taking pictures... That'll teach me to wait till the last minute... no, sorry, it won't. If I haven't learnt that lesson by now I doubt I ever will. Besides what's in the picture, I put in a few baggies of Cotton Labo Organic Japanese Cotton, some JuJu Juice (I said I wouldn't but did anyway) and some 60mg/ml VG Nicotine base from RTS for DIY.
-Last picture is me... and the box... and a hat...

There is still some room in the box that I filled with packing materials.

I will have the box in the mail tomorrow (Monday) and will send the tracking info on to baltoace.

can I suggest this?

if anyone makes juice or other items.. would be cool if you posted what you do, and if anyone has requests..
that way the pif box will have what someone else needs on down the line.. :)

just my thought of the moment!

That's setting Bob thanks!
I don't make my own anything yet... I do however have the design drawings started for a mechanical mod and atty that I am wanting to get made but due to my lack of power tools, or any other tools for that matter, I don't know that either will see the light of day lol. I do build my own coils and tinker with my toys though. Today I built a strange looking cool shaped like 2 V's wrapped around one side is my tweezers cause I was bored at work...
Hope you like that sinister juice @bobskinner I couldn't get into it, but I do like the Angels Brew, just got 50ml today via vape mail :)

I have been wanting to try Toxic Angel's Juices so I was glad that you included some, thank you! I dripped a few drops of the blue one also and liked the flavor of that one a bit better than the sinister but decided against that one as I'm pretty sure it has blue food coloring in it and I don't really want to be vaping that.

What kind of mod design have you been pondering? If it can be made from wood (or somewhat limited metal work), I have a decent collection of tools and will gladly give it a whirl for you.

The mod I'm imagining is a copper tube housed in a wood body with some nice engraving on the wood and a SS ring in the mid section so that the wood is not fastened to the copper but rather kept in place by the top cap, center stationary ring and bottom capcap (SS caps as well). Each cap/ring would have just enough room to slide over the wood and thread into the copper tube.

Huckleberried that's just what I asked JediTT about...protank and evod coils since he's a coil maker. You're number 10 and I'm number 22 so if you are taking box requests, I'd love a shot at some in the 1.5 ohm range. :)

As far as my box contributions, I'm not making or building anything but I do plan to throw a little bit of everything in there...stuff like cartos, clearos, diy flavoring, nicotine, japanese cotton, cellu-cotton (rayon), syringes, kanthal/nichrome wire, drip tips, attys and juice. With me being so far down the list, this might change, but probably not. Also, whoever is after me, if you have any special requests, just let me know and I will acomodate you if I can.

I'll go through my stuff and see if I still have some new insulators. I basically am always re-using the same ones over and over. I wouldn't want to send you anything that isn't clean/new. And I'd feel terrible if a coil you received didn't work right. I'm no pro at it, just for myself, so I can tweak them for me, since I can tell if they're burning right when I vape mine. If @JediTT can make some good ones, that's cool. If he's not ok with it and you'd still like some tossed in, I'll see what I can find for you.

I hope that makes sense. It did it my head, lol.

The wood tubes is could most likely do, engravings maybe. The steel and copper tubes, particularly the threading, would be outside of my current tooling ability and availability. It sounds interesting though. Is the center steel ring an intentional design aspect? A single wood sleeve would be just as easy to do.

Received the box this morning, what a awesome community! First pic is what i'm taking from the box second is what i'm putting in, a Stingray clone mech mod from FT all tubes and drip tip included. A TOBH clone in black with everything it came with screwdriver silca etc. A Kayfun 3.1 clone kit from FT everything included. A nemesis drip tip and three bottles of juice Nicotickets Custards Last Stand, Madtown vapors Lemon Meringue Pie and Kings Crown Fight Your Fate (Strawberry Lemonade).The third is to keep up with the tradition of "It's a box with a hat" Only this one doesn't do such a good job keeping you warm but the message is hard to beat. Hope everyone has as much fun with this as i have! I have contacted the next person on the list and am waiting to hear back. Rock on fellow vapers, rock on.
