    Custom Classic Mod

    I did. I thought I had locked the woodvil, but I guess I didn't lock it quite enough... melted the a hole in my bag and got a nice goopy coating of nylon on my new stumpy. Sent the woodvil in to Rob and the Stumpy back to Tom. All better in a week. 7068 arrived Wednesday, and haven't put it...

    Custom Classic Mod

    I haven't really worried about locking it at all yet... I only had an issue with that once with a Woodvil-- because of the side fire button. Mostly my mod is sitting upright in a pocket or bag with no real chance of it auto-firing. But with hiking/camping/biking season coming up, I may have to...

    Mech vs DNA40 Squonkers

    I sanded my chip, which happens to be in the exact same place as yours (I got mine second hand, though, so I don't know how it happened) and the door is still flush. I used 800 grit sand paper, and then treated it with Howards, then some wax. The chip is still there, but I can barely see it.

    Custom Classic Mod

    Every few days (usually in the morning when I'm refilling my juice & changing battery) I take a white eraser to the positive contact and then apply DeOxit gold. Every other week or so, I use a Scotch-bite pad on the exterior to remove oxidation & scratches (this takes only a few minutes, though...

    I'd be interested in your comparison of the CC & P67, @Rob Fisher.

    Custom Classic Mod

    About voltage drop, I have no way of testing, but I notice a difference between a Reo and a CC for sure. Ram up time is shorter, and it "hits harder". Not that big of a deal though, really, because you just adjust your build to how you like, right? That's with the solid brass neg contact. I'll...

    Mech vs DNA40 Squonkers

    Well, hell, you guys already have the magic wax! Use it! It won't protect again concrete, but it's great for moisture. I have a Viper on my SVA that spits out the airhole like crazy (because I have a clapton coil installed) and I apply a thin coat of wax every week or so just on top to keep the...

    Custom Classic Mod

    But you've heard it all before! Ok, since you asked... First, the fit & finish is just perfect. So comfortable, small and compact, and the machining is the best I've seen. And totally restorable. Any little scratch, mark or ding (within reason) can be sanded out within seconds with a...

    Mech vs DNA40 Squonkers

    And I'll say this... I'm not a collector. I don't have the finances, nor the interest in amassing an arsenal. (I do love to see others' collections, though, and I'm not bashing at all) My minimalist tendencies allow me to have 3, at most 4 mods total. And that means that they all need to be...

    Mech vs DNA40 Squonkers

    I use Renaissance Wax on my SVA to keep the juice from hurting it. Not as permanent as CA coating, but if applied regularly, it works great! EDIT: but I hear you on wanting to keep the wood mods protected... I don't take mine out nearly as much as the metal.

    Mech vs DNA40 Squonkers

    I'll play... My first mech was a Reo (before that I had a Provari & some Egos). I was good a building because I had been rebuilding protank coils, so the RM2 was easy. I moved on to other RDAs, and continued honing my building skills. I got a DNA40 SVA a few months ago, and I love it. It's a...

    Show Us Your Reo Pics!!

    Thanks! Yeah, that blue grand set-up was one of my favorites. Unfortunately, the metal grands didn't really work for me because I have small girl-hands. The minis are more my size.

    Catnip! Pretty sure it doesn't do the same thing to humans, though, so I'd skip it. Doesn't really taste very good...
