As I work at Home Depot over night I have ample opportunity to let my mind wander as to the Vape possibilities in the aisles. Last night I watched a Big Lou video on YouTube where he made a new top cap for a plume veil clone from a Home Depot 3/4 to 1/2 inch coupler.

I got to it with my Dremel, some sand paper and some drill bits. For about a 3 dollars invested I thought I'd try my luck. For a first attempt I'm really happy. It vapes great, nice flavor and fits much better on the deck than the clone which ate through its o rings in about 3 weeks. Every replacement o ring is too loose or way too tight.

If your bored and have a cheap atty out if commission I highly recommend this 30 minute project. Check out his video the instructions were spot on. I know my next attempt will come out cleaner and better but for someone who is not the most crafty I'm impressed with the results.

It will absolutely work on a Tobh. It needs to be bored out with the Dremel so you make fit perfectly by trying it every few passes with the grinding wheel. Then a polishing wheel makes it all nice and smooth inside. Again, I'm not skilled at this sort of thing and anticipated epic failure. I was amazed at how easy this really was.

That's pretty cool and I thought of trying it until I realized that would mean sucking on a copper fitting that I'm creating some fire inside of first. Not so sure I'm ready to do that. LOL

I'm not crafty either I can barely draw stick people. But this is pretty cool if your mind wanders again and you come up with some more cool vape ideas keep us posted for sure

Chuff cap with a shitty plumveil with no air flow.. Seriously half tempted to pick one up and drill some air flow holes.
