Needed to take my mind of things today so had a shot at making my 1st atty. Inspired by another thread on making these I stripped a torch and an old cigar. Working well and vaping like a champ. Will try and do a V2 at some point as this was rather fun, lol Not making these for sale just for my own use, so don't ask, lol 1st test fit of the cart. 1st vape test. Sat on the cube. Sat on the bench.

LOL was just a play. I'm not an atty maker, but was a fun project. I will make some more but only for personal use. I'll put together a how to at some point for VTTV.

Sorry some more teasing V2 made and slightly shorter. The 1st one vaped carts dry however had the odd dry spot. So shortened the atty and so far no dry spots. This time is's a sort of copper colour. The reason I won't make them for sale is that I need the screw thread from the 701 cigar atty for the cart. Only had 2 dead attys, lol So that's me lot. Might work a little on it though to see what is possible.

Seing as it's the same top end as a bulli, could you see your way fit to make some metal drip tip adapters for your nice shiney new mod (that also fit the bulli ) ? Them buggas in the US have had them out of stock for weeks

If I could I would mate. But just don't have that kind of tooling. I have only just got a bench drill that enabled me to make this. A lathe is on the list but every time I get within sniffing distance something else comes up. Alternator on the car this month, MOT and service, lol
ONE DAY I WILL HAVE ONE.

They look amazing, I keep showing my husband all this clever stuff you guys make, hoping to drop the hint for him to make something but he shows no interest what-so-ever

Found a way to make a very easy drip adapter mate. Take a 701 screw tip. Cut off the mouth bit right on the ridge between mouth bit and screw thread. File down a few mm and take a few microns from the inner bit. keep test fitting for drip tip. Works well and for the cost of a cart. Not metal but all I had to work with.
