Lathe and CNC geekery - Driptips!

I will definetely get back to you once I work out my vudget because these are pretty awesome. My TFV4 would be ready for a night on the town. Ever thought of making one for the Velocity RDA?

THANKS!
Cool, no hurries no worries.
I am working on a sleeve that covers the existing chuff of the Velocity. My old lathe doesnā€™t chase threads easily and it for sure wonā€™t do a metric thread, so making one that is threaded isnā€™t possible for me atm. Darker colors will work better with a sleeve. Lighter colors allow the chuff color to come through. They are somewhat transparent.
The one thing I donā€™t like about a sleeve on the Velocity is it makes it even wider than it already is, and it is pretty wide. Iā€™ll try to get a working prototype for the Velocity made this upcoming weekend and post a pic or two.
My main reason for starting this project was for the Aromamizer, and they work very well for that. They also work on some, but not all ā€œstandardā€ drip dip holes. For the TFV4, the verdict hasnā€™t come in yet.

Then I will wait with fingers and toes crossed. Or just buy an Aromamizer LOL

In my opinion, you should absolutely get an Aromamizer. Many here would agree. :smiley:
Itā€™s a great RTA. Make sure you get one with a velocity type deck. The originals had a 3 post.
I have a 6ml Aromamizer in black on the way. My 3 ml I can suck dry in pretty short order. The flavor is awesome! It pretty much has a permanent perch on my Reuleaux DNA 200.

Me too!! They are beautiful, fit like a glove, and feel so nice! Iā€™m in love. :heart_eyes: The bright green Iā€™ll use when I have the aromamizer on my black dovpo and the forest green one looks awesome with my cyan mini. :grinning:

PHEW! Iā€™m glad you all got yours and even more pleased that you like them! They look terrific sitting on those mods! My biggest concern of course was the fit. Still a few out there in transit I guess.
@Alisa , I sent yours on the same day. :slight_smile: I hope you get the package today.

Well, my tribe RTA came in todayā€¦it doesnā€™t look very impressive:


Thatā€™s the deck next to the Griffin
Itā€™s a tiny little deckā€¦

Thatā€™s next to an Aromamizer
Iā€™m gonna throw a build on it, see what it can do

Story of my life.

You may be shocked dude. It could turn out to be the grandest of grandiose things on planet Earth. :slight_smile:

Thatā€™s called optimism.

I finally got mine! The USPS apparently contracted a train of mules to drag the container, well, seriously large box Brad sent it in for protection, over to China so it could then be shipped back per Fastech standard shipping.

Itā€™s a work of art bro and a really clever way not to hack the tank. Thanks again!

Optimist is what you call an inexperienced machinist.

Looks just like a first wife to me. Sexy on the outside, but small and difficult to work with on the inside.

Har har. Iā€™m cracking me up.

LOL. Sorry about the box. I used what was handy. :stuck_out_tongue:
I guess with MLK day and what notā€¦ Fasttech prolly would have gotten it to you faster. ā€¦where did the ā€œuniversal peace signā€ emoji go? Most important, I am so glad that you like it. It was fun for me to make it.

Ok, I have to PC that post of mine above. I mean ā€œfirst spouse.ā€ Iā€™ve always heard second spouses are better. Iā€™m on my first, 24 years. . .but at the very moment I wrote the post. . . Well, ya know how relationships are, especially with those first spouses. All in good fun, Iā€™ll make fun of men if 1) I ever become one and 2) I ever learn to fight.

Iā€™m on my first wife as well. 22 years. God forbid I should out live her, but if I do, I wonā€™t have a second. Once was enough.

Third one is the charm. Either that or Iā€™m just too tired to fight.
