I simply can't afford to pay $400+ for a vaporizer, so I make my own. These are my latest 4. Hmmm. I have 5 of these already that I use daily; I may start selling these. Mod making is something I do in my spare time after work & on weekends, and I just invested in a brand new milling machine.
I also picked up on a wood stabilizing system so I will be developing entirely new designs soon. :)

Beryllium copper contact strip w/ silver contact button, silver negative button, 7075 aluminum body, neo magnets, FDV 510, stainless steel button w/PEEK insulator & "Italian" juice bottle. I realize that they look similar to a certain vendor's work over there, but this is an entirely original design with unique dimensions- it measures just 3" tall.

the design has been around years before corey or tom made them commercially

sounds good

These look great man. And if they are well priced they will sell amazingly well. I'd urge you to start selling and to consider dual 18650s!

I like the size of the Frankenskull. A dual 18650 version would be pretty nice

3D printed? Silver which tarnishes like heck?

No thanks.

Metal and or wood for me.
I don't get it either.

The silver is a positive though IMO. Beats copper for maintenance, and slightly beats it for conductivity.

Dual batteries for me all the way though. Metal or wood, I like them 1 off somehow.

For high current hot switched contacts like in a mech Silver does 'heal' better than copper.

That'd be nice. Not fucking plated like the pos REO contacts, but solid. Even if it was just at the make\break points with the rest becu or silver

The Wanko. Was alright with the SS snap in coil.
I removed the clips and put in 2 X 2.5 mm SS316 26ga 8 turn spaced coils and it is NICE!
Like a higher air flow NarDa.

The FD screws would require a bit of modifying or a new sleeve insulator.
My Wanko came with a squonk pin.

the squonk pin for the Wanko must have a VERY short head on it.
approx 3/4 of the FD pins would have to be filed off.

I got my Wanko at GB. Did not say it had a squonk pin. I know that some of the early people that got them did not get a squonk pin...

Did someone say they might let a Black Stumpy go? Or am imagining things?

The authentic use a M2.5 pin. Not sure of the clones. (You'll have to file the tip & head of the pin a touch if you're using a Fatdaddy pin)
