As promised. Here is a tutorial for building a VV wood mod. Using a OKR-T 6 amp switching regulator, Voltage display and dual 18650 batteries. This one will be referencing back to the other tutorial I posted before for the Majority of the basic build. So If you have not read it (What the heck is wrong with you ) here is a link to that post.

It may seem very large and complicated to some people. But if you give it a try I think you will be very happy with the performance of it.
Here is what we are building
Parts List needed Went with Alder this time. Listed where I got the parts from. Once again feel free to substitute for parts and tools on hand.
Mad Vapes
510 Connector
18650 Batteries 2 at least
Voltage Display - Only if you want to mount a outside display on the mod. It can be monitored with a screw on display or multimeter. But it is much easier with it already on there.
Any type of switch you want. I liked the look of this rounded flush one and works great.
Vapoligy
(2) Pairs Battery Spring Plates - Battery Spring Plate
Radio shack
PCB- Printed Circuit Board They have a few get the one that has a mix of 2,3,none, and continous connections between holes they sell for around $2.50. Or if you are able to, make your own PCB.
Small magnets If needed. Once again so far I have not needed magnets to hold door on.
Digikey -
OKR-T Switching Regulator comes in 3,6, and 10 amp sizes. I ordered a 6 amp for this one and a 3 amp for another mod. Very happy with both. Batteries last a lot longer than linear regulators.

A 200 ohm Trimmer/Pot

This is the resistor I used for my build based on the first schematic I came across. But it has been pointed out to me that this one is out of the specifications from the manufacturers datasheet. They recommend a 220 ohm resistor which will limit your max voltage to around 6 volts. Which is what I now recommend. So the 2nd link is for a 220 ohm.

1/4"x 1 1/2" x 24" Hobby Board - I went with the alder on this one.
3/4" screen - once again you can use any scrap piece you already have.
20 to 22 gauge wire
Tools Needed Same as before See Previous Tut
http://vapingunderground.com/threads/how-to-build-a-unregulated-wood-mod-image-heavy.18614/
Cuts needed - Hobby Board
(4) 4 1/4" pieces look for interesting patterns and label front and back. Others label left and right.
(2) 2" pieces label top and bottom
(1) 1 1/2" Label Angle piece
3/4" screen
(1) 1 1/2" piece label support
(1) 1 1/4" piece label U
(2) 3" pieces label U
Once again feel free to substitute what you already have available for what is listed here.
