What do you use for measuring?

Yes, powerful magnets don’t get along well with hard drives!

Was just for the picture

The wife had a magnet next to the TV once it messed up screen temporarily moved it and it started working after little while

Do you weigh with the bowl on the scale? Just wondering why if you do. I personally don’t. Not seeing a need to so I just put the bowl away and forgot about it when I first unboxed the scale.

The only time I’ve ever used the bowl was weighing hamburger meat lol

Machinist2 · June 26, 2016, 1:29pm

Yes I sort of like it so if pg or vg drops I can just wash and wipe out of the bowl and not get on the scale itself
I do leave it on there
Now that I have squeeze bottles I guess there really no need

Yeah, but who wants to keep track of 20-100 different syringes?[/quote]

No hassle at all!
I did a quick 10 minute project, where I took a spare 2x4 that was just laying around, and two drill bits, drilled some holes, and BAM! Instant organizer that keeps bottles from tipping over during mixing, keeps things readable, and syringes stored in direct correlation to the flavor it’s used with!
No muss, no fuss, no expense.

I have 6 of these that hold my sample flavors (in alphabetical order), 1 for ‘enhancers’, and 1 empty for mixing.

I pick what’s needed (syringe and flavor) and put it into the mixing rack, then carry said mixing rack to the work area. (Each one goes back to it’s place when that mix is done.) This way, there’s no accidentally grabbing the wrong flavor or brand during the process. EG: TFA’s caramel vs FW’s caramel.

I also came up with an ID system for making this work a bit easier at a glance (since WL’s doesn’t yet do so)…

Color coding on the brands: eg: TFA red, Cap yellow, etc
Then took that a step further, and added ‘A’ if the flavor contains alcohol,
so that when I’m making notes on the mix, I dont have to remember which one’s should need breathing and which dont.

Once mixed, into the UC they go!

[quote=“zigz, post:71, topic:36506”]Also, $0.30? If you skip the needle and go bulk you can get em as cheap as $0.09

Appreciate this!! I just wish I needed more 1ml’s to make this worthwhile! (But I probably will in the future if things keep going like they are! lol

Have you found a similiar deal for 3ml syringes??
(I should have been clearer before, as when I quoted .30ea I was referring to the 3ml’s that I’ve seen on alot of flavor seller’s sites for .60ea to 1.00ea, which is why I mentioned the local pharmacy)

EDIT: an upside down bottle means I’m out, and need to get more!

I jumped the syringe ship before I’d have any need of a bulk order of 3 ml syringes, sorry.
