If I ran 528 Customs I'd make a shit ton of the OG Goons, not LP's or 1.5's or 25mm, OG caps and decks. It would be like printing money
I honestly like them all (haven't tried the LP), but the OG is just tops for me. The 1.5 is great, but I have to work at getting af just right, the 25, I don't like the whole top cap fitting/adjusting, but vapes great. I have that OG, a brass and a SS. REALLY WANT A COPPER!!!
Got that Goon from Bx10r. Never seen it before, but I love the silver/black combo.
Yeah, that would be nice! Sounds like they need to hire us as R&D employeesIdc about the engraving, but gimmie that top cap for sure. How about an OG Goon 28?
Are those vent holes at the top/back?Got me another Snocwcaps Steppe SBS mech, the one on the right today and I'm stoked!!!

Love the whole set up, but that DT just sets it off.
On the Griffin rta? Yes they are AF holes but are useless IMO, got it from wetvapes.com for $5 the other day and I need to re wick it with some better juice that I know cuz the juice in there was meh at best and I want to make sure its the juice not the rta haha but I have them AF holes closed off haha
~Wesyde1
I'm an idiot haha just realized that said BACK not black haha and yeah they kinda are but its where the battery locks in lemme get you a picture real quick
~Wesyde1
That's smart design
I may or may not have stolen a play off your slam, just sayin'...........
Here is a picture without the battery in and without the carbon fiber wrap he makes for them.

Recently saw a new P3 for a very nice price so it must be a part of my "regulators" crew of tubes. Although I've had a couple Radius mods, I can't believe this is my first provari I have owned after 9 years or so vaping. But which atty to sport? hmmm...
While not exactly a hand check, I must represent the Regulators!

Urge to Purge
Sent from a Galaxy far far away
Daaaamn that came out nice! Will they customize any mod or just purge mods? cerakote only or do they also anodize or any other methods?
wait, is that an atom all juma-ed up? my atom looks so nakedly boring now....
Fasteddies will cerakote any mod and PalmersPowders will powdercoat any mod not sure who anodizes tho?
~Wesyde1
What he said
Actually, Palmer's done that one.
Powder coated.
If a mod has engraving I prefer Ceracoat, Powder Coat is thicker and tends to fill in the engraving. If the engraving is not deep it loses the crispness of the engraving.

Nice!!! And the only thing about powdercoat is if your tube has the plastic inserts or whatever they are for keeping bad batt wraps from shorting you will need to remove them for powdercoating where cerakote will not require this fyiWhat he said

Crown Royal gave us these Yeti tumblers today handcheck haha
~Wesyde1
That's very cool! (Literally, lol!) I am a huge Yeti and RTIC fan.
You might be able to find a handle for that tumbler, if you're so inclined, on Amazon. Makes them a lot easier to manage.
Love the looks of that one. Mine's not nearly so nice - it's just plain old stainless steel.
My 1st one, I've always used the Ozark Trail tumblers and been very pleased with them so now I can do a real world comparison haha

About how much does that cost, to have a tube cerakoted? I'd love to have something done with this brass Brizo (I ordered white brass and got regular brass, and it is not my favorite by any means. I'd love it to be gray or a dark silver.)
If I recall correctly both charge about the same, around $60 for the tube and a rda cap plus shipping to and from so its really up to you and what you like, both do awesome work!

That's far less than I imagined, so yeah, sounds like a plan! Thanks!
So your favorite color is red right, lol.Fast Eddie's done all of these, the attention to detail is amazing.

And sorry, thats the starting price depending on colors and designs wanted but yes very reasonably priced for the work and quality you get!
~Wesyde1
And me! Remember, I'm the guy whose always recounting the tragedy of losing my brand new red xvostickpro walking my dog in the woods because she ate a hole in my pocket the night before.... I'm about to cry.....And I am always trying to find it's twin and replace what was lost but it never is seen again....
Anyways, do you think fasteddie is a high enough level wizard to turn this 303 into something like this 505 (paint-wise only of course, not re-shaping or warping the fabric of reality)? And what would something like that cost, approx?
Contact them and ask, I don't see why they couldn't.

It's an Immortal Mods Atocha, black version. That's a 30mm Asgard on top which is the max with no overhang for the mod. The original release of this style was silver plated brass with the juma sleeve which I liked but I waited cause I knew they would release a black version. The 4 different colored juma sleeves to choose from are green, blue, purple, and brown. It's a very sturdy mod, I love it!
Either Fasteddies or Palmers but im sure one of them can get close at least! I'd shoot em both a msg and ask to find out at least.
I liked the Cold Steel alot when I had it!
A little dart frog action today. I liked my orange/green one a lot so when FVS had a 35% off sale I grabbed another. Almost went with the orange/blue but I wanted something totally different from the first. Definitely a little funkier than what I typically buy, but I really like the finishes on these, I'm happy I took the chance. You can see em coming a mile away lol
Those look great! I like the blue and green battery wraps to match too
I lucked out that the lime green ones I threw in a recent order match perfectly. The blue wraps look good but my matchy matchy ocd vaper inside would like to find a little better match. Wondering if black or yellow, if they even make yellow, wraps would look even sweeter in my eyes. They're so cheap I'm sure I'll eventually find out?
Fatality is nice on it. Vaping at 65 watts - .27 ohms
You gonna make @gadget! jealous now!
