Hell I do good with it, without temp control. * chuckles * Doc Spanky tells me though. "stainless steel wire is the bomb-diggity." I do not know yet and do think one day I may like to try it but I'm in no great rush. My eyes still recall getting flash burnt on stainless steel once trying to arc a tig electrode on it. Some dumb ass thought it bright to joke with me, foul up the box while I started a bead.

That was a WUT!? minute too. Peeled the hood off and got splash blinded in pretty arcing colors. Knew better but I could not see what I was doing. Kind of irked me because I was doing as a buddy suggested, trying to do it like brazing. That took me a bit to learn w/ a torch. Did not get the idea of the flux following the heat path. It just didn't sink in for my kidney. Knew it but applying it was a toe stubbing.

Am aware it's unlikely a mod would make SS wire arc. Still a bit weary though. Recall some other facts about SS rattling in my noggin. Aware too as far as vapng, think we don't push it too far. Stainless Steel can be rather toxic if it breathed in while heated to the point of itself becoming vapor. Like I say though, we don't get it that hot by a good long-shot, that I'm aware.
Years ago during the gennie phase i thought the same thing ( being a fabricator myself ) so i made a bunch of samples from lightly heated to fucking burnt worst case (with a propane torch). It all came back from the lab negative. We just don't get it hot enough.

Hank's vapingwalrus deal is pretty good if that's all you are getting.

Did you find a Tobeco Vel V2 on FT? I see they have "styled" velocity v2s but I haven't seen the Tobeco clone, but maybe I didn't look hard enough, lol.

The FT "styled" v2 makes no mention of a bf pin and sure doesn't show one in the pictures

The styled one has a grub screw in the one bottom of the pin. It is listed in the discussion section. As for being Tobeco or not, not sure. Still seems a fair deal to me.

Here's the one I'm seeing.

Well I did not think we did. I do recall that though about SS, from years ago. I think iirc galvanized is the same.

I can't begin to tell you how disappointed I was. The three "takers" have all been offered free refills on their nicquids. I have no idea who the thief is, so he is on his own.

Oh yeah, and he didn't even take a bottle of juice. I wonder how much he thinks he is going to hawk that $15 mod for...

"De stupid, boss. De stupid, de stupid!"

Too early, coffee meter set at 0. Must clear cobwebs!



There we go, well blended methinks. :)

Hahaha... SO much for my social experiment. On the last big job, I took 10 new AIO's, 10 bottles of 24mg King Cake. I had over 30 guys on that job, and of those, about 25 were smokers. My ONLY request, was that any takers have at least SOME interest in quitting cigarettes. THREE. That's how many rose to the qualifier. And someone stole one. lol.
Kudos to you, brother, for continuing to pay it forward - all ya can do is give em the chance

(and bad joss on the theif - wtf?)

For some reason, that old dog over there tires me out. I swear, he takes controversial positions and makes shit up just so someone will engage him. So, I am done with the Every Crazy Fuck shuffle, and am shuffling off for a good nights sleep. Nite, all!

Erm... which one, pray tell? There's AT LEAST half a dozen over there who do that ALL the time.

About your experiment... I have to wonder if someone really was interested, but 24mg was just way too high, but he didn't want to be perceived as a "wussy" -- I smoked for almost 40 yrs, but when I started, even 12mg made me nauseous for HOURS. I couldn't vape regularly till I got some 6mg, and it took a couple months to work up to 10mg.

At the very least, I have a pkg coming from WizLabs... there might be 2 others, that postal employees were simply too lazy to scan. Or I might be calling them at their exercise-in-frustration phone number to complain about one.

Well I have a cellphone now, so I can speaker-phone it, till a human actually answers! :) But I might just send them an email rather than getting infuriated at their stupid call center. Still working a bit on my vape-stuff organization project, so I really have plenty to do today, without purposely inviting rage.

I am a really level headed person, it's enormously difficult to make me angry. But that number manages to pull it off in under 10 minutes every time.

Yep... and then even when something like a human actually does get on the phone, they all sound like they've taken a massive dose of sedatives, and can barely be bothered to stay awake.

Good Nooning, Fellow Fugee's. Damn you Lucy, for being so entertaining. Late to bed and late to rise makes it a bitch to open ones eyes.
Happy GFY Monday, my friends! Between Doc Iguana and Spanky, I feel the need to buy something..

Thanks for the share on that contest: the fucker running it is the guy that drove Roxy off VU

In the Merlin thread he posted her personal email, and said all kinds of nasty stuff to me and Roxy.

I have him on ignore - only because I did not want him following me here

I would not trust this guy with your personal information :BE AWARE

not arguing, just ensuring accuracy.

and it was deleted 5 seconds after it was posted by the mod team

He was certainly warned not to post personal info/emails on VU members on the thread.

For someone running a business he has very poor judgement, terrible people skills and I can only imagine the nightmare of trying to deal with this felcher if there was a problem.

Talk about a loser.

ETA - need more coffee - just saw @f1r3b1rd 's clarification - thanks, sir!

I'm not arguing any of your points.... I'm merely stating the fact that he did not post personal information at all.
that is a cardinal sin in my opinon. It was done to me at another forum, I have zero patience for that whatsoever. However, what was posted was the contact information for augvape and another mod deleted it immediately. it was public information for augvape the corporation.

as to what you said about the individual in question... I cant argue there.

* snickering, almost like a school girl but not quite * Hehe. Expose white phosphorous to oxygen, do believe it is instant combustion & a mild pop. There was a SWAT team in NC iirc, they could tell you all about how it burns a hole in an infant's chest. Dumb fools popped flash bang right in on the poor thing in it's crib while executing no knock, thump raid and got nothing for it to show. Family filed civil suits, judge told them to take it criminal as a human was injured. Not heard tell much more of it.

But oh how we grew up wanting to be such heroes. Tsk.

This is correct, I posted that, after removing the email he posted without removing the vendor's info. There was a lot of contact info for that vendor in the email, which may or may not have been fully public information. The member did apologize, then later cut the info from the email and re-posted, which was acceptable.

Do those, staple coils, do well? Thinking, I could possible heat and flatten some of my Kanthal to do a quick & dirty "let me avoid buying extra wire". Curious though if it'd be worth that effort at all.

Yeah & I very much dislike the customer service in your shop. The last time I was in, some gypsy was harassing me to buy some glowing white gel looking stuff I took for inter-planetary mold. A Pox on your goats, you silly toaster vendor! :p

No, I've never been in your shop/s. Think I looked over the site a wee bit once. I keep a Rolodex type of file of vendors. I am consumer, the power of choice & shopping around are mine. For now at least.

Thinking of heat. May wait till evening to do more weed eating. I was out doing some earlier. Kind of felt core temp going up so came to a pause point.

I would recommend buying real ribbon. It's not expensive at all. But I don't think flattened kanthal would work too well. You need the ribbon stacks to be perfectly straight and lay together perfectly flat. But yeah, I seriously love the performance of a 10x ribbon stack staple. So far I've used 10x .3x.1 claptoned with 40g.all 316L of course It's great.hard to get the stacks to stay together and vertical though

I will look into this. Go over Temco's site a bit more later. Think I saw them selling some ribbon KA, maybe even SS. ATM I think the witch is readying to have us a jaunt into the huge metropolis of Ripley. Get more dog feed, for them and me. Not sure wut else she got in mind. Hope she avoids the Evil Empire but do sense the Farce is projecting we'll need to go there.

I will take the silly anxiety med before we go. That way I don't walk through Wal Mart chanting.

Good morning/afternoon fugee's and GFY :)

Last night at work was a little better, instead of walking in tomy apartment at 3:52 am, I actually made it for 3:38 am. A whole 12 minutes early :giggle:

Currently we are down to 4 helicopters assigned to the base I work at and two mechanics. Walked into work yesterday and 3 of them was broken :xD: and two extra helicopters to replace the broken ones, so another brutal night but was able to take it easy on the arm :) The young guy I work the flight line with is a good guy and understands about the arm. If we can get this last broke helicopter operational tonight then the next two days should be easy!

Last night I was so tired that I cooked some bacon and eggs and was sitting here in front of my lap top eating my breakfast and dozed off with 2 pieces of bacon still on the plate. Woke up a little after 5 am and was like damn, to fall asleep with bacon still on the plate is a crime! :giggle::giggle::giggle::giggle: So I ate the evidence :teehee:

Check out kidney puncher, I personally prefer them over temco if I'm talking about wires that aren't ours (we don't have .1mm ribbon yet, so I don't mind recommending the competition) kidney puncher, the ribbon comes off the spool very straight and flat, which is important in my experience for the staples
