$22 on fasttech.
Obviously it’s a clone.
I can’t afford to drop $180 on a tube mod.
It’s a pretty good clone to be fair too.
Switch spring needed a little cleaning as it was getting warm on my 0.09ohm Dual fused Clapton build in the Petri.
But it’s a beautiful little thing.

My wife has never, not once, bought me anything vaping related. However, she was watching over my shoulder as I sat with my laptop looking for the TFR2 dual coil rebuild deck for the TFV4 tank. Cheeky little woman got on her tablet and found it on Ebay. Ordered it and said “you can stop looking babe, yours will be here in a few days.”
Dammit woman, no wonder I married you almost 20 years ago!
She did want to know why I was so obsessed in finding this thing and I blamed it all on @Pro_Vapes Yes I did, all your fault buddy. And your fault I’ve spent nearly $300 lately on 2 new mods, a tank, wire, cotton, etc. Can’t wait man! Oh and have I told you PV thanks for all yours and @daath promoting of TC mods? Really this is what I wish I had been vaping on from day one.

…single tasking with the maintenance of mechs is always kind of relaxing and cathartic for me; polishing my silver, chrome and brass mechs takes me to my special place!

Check out the art of vaping on YouTube at SQUIDOODE’s way of polishing his mechs.
It uses a carto clamped in the chuck of a drill and the 510 of the carto screwed into the mech and spun using metal polish to really bring up from an oxidised tinge to a shiny mirror.
It’s really something special.

I still use my mech Poldiac on a daily basis…keeping things simple is comforting to me; tubing up a hot battery and attaching a full tank…heading off to relax before bedtime is one of my nightly rituals.

It’s been a busy week of ordering…
First for my NET Project I ordered a slew of Premium Tobacco Leaf. They should be in by Friday. Much thanks to @Jimk for the link to this tobacco site.
After seeing the post for the original Unicorn Milk I needed flavors for this recipe so I had to order from 2 different sites for the ingredients… ECX ans Wizard Labs. This is my 1st order from WL and I really like their site and pricing so I went a little overboard there…
Wizard Labs
ECX… ECX doesn’t honor the ELR discount for Capella Flavor Drops
And I needed more glass bottles for storage and mixing. I reordered with Amazon… IMO the best prices and free shipping for glass bottles. I find glass to be so much better for diy…
.
I also received a restock order from last week…
Next stop… Medicine Flower. In search of the best flavors for diy, I’ve only heard the absolute best of these organic flavors. I’ll be ordering soon to see how great they really are.

I learned one thing today… Tobacco isn’t very heavy! I was expecting sandwich bag sized samples. Instead I have large freezer bag size samples. One good thing… I can make enough NET flavors to last a couple years.

Double Clapton as in wrap once then over wrap again?
Hmm it might not work but I could try.
Maybe 42 initial Clapton then 44 final wrap.
Once I get used to working with the really fine gauges I’m going to try a multi core framed staple with 26gNm80 frame, 30x42gNm80 lightly twisted multi core and then wrapped in 44gNm80.

I don’t really have a lot of wire.
I can rip through a 50m spool in no time doing a lot of over wrapping.
Besides aren’t you in the USA?
Probably cost a fortune to send it to you. Lol.
What did you like the look of anyway?
