Sorry I talk shit folks. I am just board. I am late to the party today. Doctors all day. Trump really cracking down on pain killers. He made me sign if I am caught with non legal drugs I will go to jail 25 years without a trial. I wanted my Attorney but I needed my meds. It Is no issue because I do not break the law but what if a bad cop plants them ever? That could and does happen. Although I never even have any contact with the cops. Backpack is small for what it is. I told you they shaved off ton of weight a long time ago going with TPU instead of the old PVC they had. Use the filter! You must. Sorry folks not adopting adults LOL. Jinx'd, you want to send me something? I have top of the line measuring for everything. All kinds of calipers, laser tables everything. Unfortunately you have to trust someone else now that does not know what I do. no way I can operate that anymore. thank you for saying I am not stupid Bro. I am glad you guy's believe what I say but I certainly do not mean to brag. I just tell the truth. By no means do I want anyone to feel belittled by me. I am just lucky. Well, not really. I made a deal with the Devil to get where I am. You are all better off. Trust me on that. You know how many years it took that Lobster to reach 14#? Maybe 75. Drop it in boiling water? That is very cruel. To each their own. I do not judge anyone. I just do my own thing. That is accepted as not being animal abuse so okay. If I saw a guy beating a dog about the head with a hammer I would not hesitate to hold him at gunpoint though. I do not live by Lake Michigan. 200 miles west. B:y Stevens Point. Look on Google maps. I am about 70 miles from Stevens Point in the "Bluffs" Area. Mainly it is a remote campground. Hottest in summer is 85 a few day's. Normally not more than 75. Winter is brutal. 3 Months of -50F. Not the windchill but actual temp! 7 feet of snow in one night is not unusual. We use a 12,000 horsepower tractor to clear it. I appreciate that you folks have been nice to me. I guess I am going to go watch my TV now. I "invested" in that TV and have not even been using it. My wife got mad and I never even see her. I do kiss her goodnight. Of course I still love her. It is just after this long there is not much any longer It is not sad, it is pretty normal at this point..

Todd. you don't talk shit at all. and i have never seen you brag. don't be afraid to talk about your stuff, we like your stories and experiences.

no, i want something from you, if you can. your Primo 21700. can you have your best machinist measure the height of the stab ?
no need to take it apart. just lay it on its side, and put the calipers up to it. any good machinist will be able to "eyeball" within a few .001, and thats all i need. oh, and maybe he can T-gauge the battery hole in the stab, and thats all i need. oh oh, and the depth of the battery hole = and make sure he knows to go only on the wood and not the battery connection inside. and he can include the base plate thickness in that measurement.

thanx

oh, btw. the Primo i got from you. there wasn't an authentification card in the box. idk if they even came with one, my 26650 has one.
don't go looking for it, but if you happen to find it, can ya mail it to me ? its not a big deal at all, really, but "if" you happen to find it ....thanx

Jinx'd I swear I gave you everything that came with it. I have I think 8 of them right now. The 21700 does not come with an Auth card. Those bastards are just getting cheapoper. They made it pretty obvious to me at least they do not even give a crap anymore. As of Duke era they were pretty nice and that was not that long ago. Look how short it took Amazon to turn into dicks and they were already the largest company in the world. As of a few days ago I meat a "brick wall" over $5.99 shipping fee I was mistakenly charged while having Prime. They no longer care. Since I have nothing to to I called 5 times and spoke with "escalation". Each time the same answer. Pretty much, go eat yourself in more polite words of course. Jinx'd I have no actual "machinist any longer per se. More like "Black smiths" Horse shoes and stuff. I hope they do good enough. Please give them a few day's but we will get it done for you I promise Eyeballing that will be hard for a novice because there is not indent to rest the caliper. It is the finest Japanese caliper though. even the battery costs a lot. Although I just checked it and it still works after 13 years so the battery must be worth it LOL. Thank you for the nice comments. I do feel some things should not be said in public and I am certainly guilty of that. My bad. I am just glad you folks are mature enough not to be mad. Try pulling this in a gun forum LOL. This is the only forum I have been on since 2003. I was not welcome with my views elsewhere. No wonder about that then. You guys are A1 in my book. I am just glad you accept a worn out old man. Manny, I am not sure what you mean "it is over". Trump back stabbed Juul after they lobbied his ass. Good move quite frankly. That shit, and Blu is in fact quite frankly poison and the entire culture of kids mostly. Most kids do not have $1,0900 Stabwood rigs with tanks and $30 60ml juice. Well I don't either because I am smart. Yeah, my juice was 6 grand but I got 46 gallons. You do the math. It was for nothing. I just paid upfront instead of the long run. Since I knew I would use it, so long as I live it was worth it. It is indeed top shelf juice. That other shit has Diacetyl and all kinds of poison. You must watch what you buy. I would not buy cheap premixed vape shop "house brands" either. At the least, the kid spit in it because he is jaded from his shit life and employment. You know Jinx'd I am worried he will not get you an accurate reading but I will get you one nonetheless. that thing reads to point 12 zeros! Do you need it that precise? How many zeros do you really need? That would help me to not bitch slap the poor guy. I am still pretty good at bitch slapping! That block actually looks pretty snazzy. I would hold off on ratting the guy as of yet. If you did not already, I would see what becomes of it. Maybe only 10 coats which it pretty standard fair. One of my very high end Mods that was older and dry needed 46 coats. Trying not to talk to Bill but I will need him eventually. In fact he would be the guy to measure the thing but he is going to ask for something outrageous again I am just trying to avoid with him. Quite frankly I could care less but it is a matter of principle. It simply is not right to take advantage of your good neighbor. Knowingly or not. Something tells me he does in fact know just what he did. No one is that stupid. He has been around horses 65+ years and does not know what a saddle costs? I apologize again for wall of text. I just woke up, headache. At least you folks are flexible to overlook all my quirks. Other sticklers will just not let it go. I was stuttering in 7/11 and this guy said shut up retard! Intolerance sucks IMO. Okay I got to go take a whiz test for the President. Official business! I sure hope the cop shop has handicap bars. The truth is he is looking out for people. He is not all bad, just mostly LOL. The problem is he does not think everything through all the way. That is just my opinion, everyone else is most certainly entitled to their own!

That is a big problem. We have destroyed the earth. humans are the only animal that destroy solely for the sake of destruction. plus add outright carelessness. such as tossing trash. We are bothered by rattlers and gators. We encroached on their land! they were here millions of years before us! They deserve their land before we do but we feel it belongs to us! We built these power lines, they never even thought of such a thing. Or had any need for it for that mater! It is what it is. We can't stop it. do you want to live in the dark anyways?

i am getting farther, faster, than i thought i would. worked on it about 6 hours today.
i took a little chip out of it cause i fucked up, but that is easily fixed with glue.
getting the arches at the top and bottom is very tough.
i still have to fit the bottom plate, then fine tune everything. then i can shape the outside.

I never doubted you after the first time. Jinx'd my Brother, you need the plunger in the battery compartment to the wood block or the top or bottom of the metal plate? I cannot promise how accurate this guy is. Plus please give him 'till end of week. He is sharpening shit right now. If I I pull him off he will never finish the job. Thanks

this is what i need. pretty easy, just have to be a little carefull.

make sure the small part of the caliper end hits "the wood only" down in the hole.
your nurse could do it easy.

I am board. I will ask my nurse to go out there. He does not know that shit but he iis 50x smarter than Tomas. It is on my property but 7 miles from house. That is how much property. He has to load/unload me and everything, going to be a while but be back in the AM here. Or afternoon if I conk out. I should have the readings before 2AM though, just not sure if I will provide them right then unless he gets on the phone.So, you need the block height, battery cavity full height to the top plate, plus the diameter of the battery hole?

Manny, I wish you would make use of the D850? Please don't sell that unless you just must. You have something few people do. If you have a nice lens eco-system that is probably the best full frame made right now. In fact it is better than some of my medium backs. I would start using it and give you incentive to keep it. It is useless to me now. You saw how shitty my pic was out of 15 grand of camera and lens+ speedlights.

Hey, this is Kaneeth. I am Tahi's nurse. He is right here but he is vomiting. He is okay. He had a caliper in the basement. It is not as good as the Tamasca one but I hope this shall suffice. So, the battery cavity full depth is "roughly" 77.45mm. The battery opening diameter at the screw on cap, the inside not the cap is "roughly" 22.75mm. The height of the wood block, excluding the metal plates is "roughly" 87.29mm. I say "roughly" because I am not even sure I "zeroed" the thing right each time but I am not sure we have anyone that can do any better. I hope this helps you, otherwise my apologies. He should be back in a bit.

I feel better. Fucking Taco bell My nurse likes that crap. He thinks it is "American" style. It is shit. We pay for kitchen staff dammit. Anyways I sure hope he did that right. If he fucked it up I am really sorry jinx'd. That would be a terrible shame. Although I would guess the tolerance is not so tight. Hopefully with any luck it works. I sure hope I am not wrecking this VA too. I have covered it in juice again and again. Of course I quickly wipe it. The wax is on it though. It does not feel soft which is tell tale of rot. Knock on wood. No pun intended. You folks joking about adoption. We adopted our 13 year old great grandson. His mom was not fit. Luckily not family. We have guardianship of my 104 year old brother. He is so sick a Doctor and 2 nurses take 3 shifts on him. He is on semi life support now. I do not feel bad because he is plenty old but it is going to freak me out when he dies in my home. He could live a month, he could live 3 years. No telling. He still remembers who I am. His mind is not too bad it is just his organs are finished. Kind of to be expected at his age. I still love him.

Does he communicate or is he awake sometimes ?

Hope your bro’s okay. Please don’t eat fast food. It’s the worst dreck, pretty much. It’s ultra processed et al. If you’ve got a cook, why would you eat it? People who are broke, or don’t know better, eat that stuff. Diet is too important to you right now. Please take care of yourself.

Thank you. I just eat it because my nurse does but he is 34 years old. My brother is completely competent he just cannot breathe on his own. Not even with oxygen. He has a tube in his neck. He writes just fine though. Something is bound to quit by then. He never abused his body. Obviously not if he has lived this long. I have not seen jinx'd here yet but my nurse just informed me all the measurements should be good. Except the hole may be too small. He realized he thought he had it set on the outside pins of the tool and it was on the inside ones he thinks. He will remeasure it to be sure a lot later tonight. I can't go down there. Even though the elevators go down, then there are like 16 stairs. Idiots that built this place. Well, they probably did not count on me ending up in a wheel chair either. Most residences are not ADA compliant in fact unless a disabled person happens to live there. I have no business down there anyways. Mechanical stuff like blast furnaces and chillers actually scare me. Manny, I agree on the camera anyway, the bike is better.

Levi’s home on a medication regimen that seems to be helping. He’s going tomorrow or Wednesday for another EKG and Blood Pressure check to see how well the meds are working and if they need tweaking or if he’s going to need a pace maker. The specialist believes now that the atrial ventricular block, low heart rate and raised Bp are being caused by the adrenal glands possibly a tumor there or on the pituitary gland. It’s almost impossible to see even if there is an adrenal tumor so they’re treating him as if there is one as opposed to a main electrical blockage in his heart.

So far so good. He’s acting like an 8yo again lol! And it’s great to see.

Thank you so much for thinking to ask anbout him. That was incredibly thoughtful of you!

This one is real pretty.......

I really love the colors and it’s one of my favorite mods even with the several VAs I have. I still reach for this one more often.

Did you see the VA Primo 21700 that’s clear- made of some type of glass or something. Not my thing but I know a lot of people like the ultem or clear look of mods. It ain’t cheap just like most VAs aren’t.

Well, Manny as you very well know now, I cannot use either but if I had to choose It would also be the bike. Especially at your age. You are still young enough to enjoy it and eventually it will be too late like me. Obviously I cannot even attempt to try a bike. However you saw how good I did with 15+ grand worth of camera LOL. Both the body and lens have multi axis gyro but not to overcome what I am doing with it. I damn nearly chucked the thing out the window. That is exactly why I wrapped the strap around my wrist twice too. I would not have to worry about falling off a bike though because I could not get on one HAHA. Shit, I cannot even get in a car anymore. I am not singing the blues, I actually think it is funny in a morbid self disrespecting kind of way. Rhianne , you speak Yiddish? Or you just picked up "dreck" somewhere? I know plenty of people that speak Hebrew but none Yiddish. Unfortunately Hitter pretty much abolished that language. You would be hard pressed to find a Yiddish speaking family unit even in the Ukraine today. Some very old people throw it around here and there but no one has a conversation in it AFAIK. I most certainly don't. Maybe I know 4-5 words. I was born Muslim but once my health went south Jesus was my savior. Manny was absolutely correct what he said his dad had told him. It is no secret. I like it and there is nothing wrong with it either. I am not starting talking shit again. Just sayin'. Plus you really can tell a lot about someone by their bumper stickers! Although I hate disrespectful shit like a fish with legs that says "Darwin". That is uncool to display to the public IMHO. Not everyone will appreciate that. Tread lightly. There is no need to offend others or be cruel. Be kind to others. You never know what is coming back to you! Not threats but Karma! I do believe that. You can only shit where you eat for so long. Well, I am just saying it pays dividends to be nice. I saw the very ugly side of life and I really did not much care for it in retrospect. Happy now, crippled and all. I honestly would not ask for anything. I know, easy for me to say but really it is not wealth I mean. Just peace. I hope I am not being a dick again. I just try to tell the truth as I see it. Y'all here good people. Odd I stumbled upon here then. I am more like asshole attractant mostly.

Sara, I just got a Knight like that one. Paid too much. VA is overpriced. Not worth more than Asmodus IMO. It is like Nike. They have a namesake. Big deal. Same thing, no better no worse.

Sara, I just got a Knight like that one. Paid too much. VA is overpriced. Not worth more than Asmodus IMO. It is like Nike. They have a namesake. Big deal. Same thing, no better no worse.

I know I paid way to much for the Knight but cost comes down to how much you like something. I love that knight and have no intention of selling it.

However I disagree with VA being on par with Asmodus. I love some of my Asmodus products but the build quality is not near to the quality of the VAs imo. Especially the quality of the wood and the finish of the VAs is night and day to the less expensive Asmodus. Now if we’re talking about the Minikin Boost Kodama or the Silvnusa then it’s a different story. The material, quality , build and finish on those are comparable to the nicer VAs.

Now remember I only have experience with the VA Primo, Primo 21700 Ti and the Knight. After doing A LOT of research on custom mods I could be happier and feel more secure in the knowledge that these mods are made very well and just because they’re not handmade doesn’t effect me in the least in the enjoyment and security of the devices.

I’ve spent much time on the custom mod Facebook pages and even those ones don’t exactly hold their original prices from what I see from people trying to sell them.

So a $400-$600 known mod will probably be easier to sell than a custom $2k mod that only the very educated modders have ever heard of even on their own websites.

Plus buying from a company like Stabwood Mod UK gives me the confidence that they will help me out in the event I run into some trouble. I know that has not been your recent experience with some companies but tbh you can’t expect them to keep repairing or even replacing them when you yourself admit it’s probably a problem with juice getting in everywhere from your tremors. I don’t think for one minute a custom kidder in Malaysia is going to care too much either.

I forgot where I was going with this but I’m happy with the VAs and Asmodus for the prices are great too.

I’ve already sold a few of the less expensive Asmodus squonkers. They seem to be very popular among the ECF folks right now and I’ve come to the conclusion that squonking just isn’t my thing. I’d rather drip.

I do plan on advertising a couple of my Primo 22700Tis though. I was a bit over enthusiastic in buying so many. If they sell then great. If not then I’ll just keep them and use them or keep them in my stash and attempt to sell them again come holiday or spring time no big deal.

I sold several of my Provaris which makes more sense since I decided I really didn’t enjoy MTL vaping after all. I’m keeping the black Stealth Procyon though since it goes to 60 watts which is way over what I’ll need for wattage. I am going to sell the rarer gold Procyon though. Some one has a used one listed on eBay for $500!!!! I’m asking $350 plus shipping. Not looking to make money just breaking even is my goal.

So I feel a bit less anxious about finding money for my dogs health care. He comes 1st and if I had to sell every single device for him I would without hesitation.

Hope you have a good night and TTYT!!
Levi my love!!!

Well, Manny as you very well know now, I cannot use either but if I had to choose It would also be the bike. Especially at your age. You are still young enough to enjoy it and eventually it will be too late like me. Obviously I cannot even attempt to try a bike. However you saw how good I did with 15+ grand worth of camera LOL. Both the body and lens have multi axis gyro but not to overcome what I am doing with it. I damn nearly chucked the thing out the window. That is exactly why I wrapped the strap around my wrist twice too. I would not have to worry about falling off a bike though because I could not get on one HAHA. Shit, I cannot even get in a car anymore. I am not singing the blues, I actually think it is funny in a morbid self disrespecting kind of way. Rhianne , you speak Yiddish? Or you just picked up "dreck" somewhere? I know plenty of people that speak Hebrew but none Yiddish. Unfortunately Hitter pretty much abolished that language. You would be hard pressed to find a Yiddish speaking family unit even in the Ukraine today. Some very old people throw it around here and there but no one has a conversation in it AFAIK. I most certainly don't. Maybe I know 4-5 words. I was born Muslim but once my health went south Jesus was my savior. Manny was absolutely correct what he said his dad had told him. It is no secret. I like it and there is nothing wrong with it either. I am not starting talking shit again. Just sayin'. Plus you really can tell a lot about someone by their bumper stickers! Although I hate disrespectful shit like a fish with legs that says "Darwin". That is uncool to display to the public IMHO. Not everyone will appreciate that. Tread lightly. There is no need to offend others or be cruel. Be kind to others. You never know what is coming back to you! Not threats but Karma! I do believe that. You can only shit where you eat for so long. Well, I am just saying it pays dividends to be nice. I saw the very ugly side of life and I really did not much care for it in retrospect. Happy now, crippled and all. I honestly would not ask for anything. I know, easy for me to say but really it is not wealth I mean. Just peace. I hope I am not being a dick again. I just try to tell the truth as I see it. Y'all here good people. Odd I stumbled upon here then. I am more like asshole attractant mostly.

Dreck is a NY word! I don’t know of anyone who speaks Yiddish, I think it’s a dead language. Could be wrong, though.

I know I paid way to much for the Knight but cost comes down to how much you like something. I love that knight and have no intention of selling it.

However I disagree with VA being on par with Asmodus. I love some of my Asmodus products but the build quality is not near to the quality of the VAs imo. Especially the quality of the wood and the finish of the VAs is night and day to the less expensive Asmodus. Now if we’re talking about the Minikin Boost Kodama or the Silvnusa then it’s a different story. The material, quality , build and finish on those are comparable to the nicer VAs.


Levi my love!!!

lets see the Knight

when i was working on my EOSII i felt the quality of the wood itself was very good. this russian and ukranian wood, not so much, even thought it is very nice wood, just softer.

Yorky . we had many of them in our family. they indeed are wonderfull dogs.
glad he is doing well.

this is the reply i got from the seller of my block. i still think he embellished the color. but ya know what, from what i am seeing in this block, as long as final shaping doesn't remove a lot of patern, this is going to look awesome.

Hello.
After polishing with fine grain sandpaper, we conduct polishing of dialux paste (white).
Danish oil is used for finishing the handle. It penetrates deeply into the fibers of wood, and after polymerization, forms a reliable moisture-repellent coating, the structure of the wood is perfectly manifested. Apply with a brush, cotton wool, or cloth. Not toxic. Drying time is about 5 hours.

Todd, you may want to look into that danish oil. it looks to be exactly what you need.

Oops, I missed jinx'd was here. He might have measured the battery diameter too small a tad. To be safe he will remeasure later. I sure hope Levi is okay. It breaks my heart when any animal is sick. They do not even understand what is happening to them. Or that we are trying to help them. Something true most people do not know. Most "average" dogs, not fighting dogs. They may bite out of fear, not anger! It is their only defense. You can't blame them. Inhumane society AKA animal control sucks. How do they help anything? They are mean and cruel. People that do that job are sick and twisted. Maybe next they go kill some people. In fact it has already happened more than once. Teaching violence most often starts with animals and then later escalates to humans. Proven fact. Sick bastards get pleasure hurting animals. Then just finish them off in the worst way imaginable I will refrain from mentioning here. Jinx'd, she is correct. Lay off the Taco Bell. Tasty it is indeed. Knock years off your life. That's what you want? It does not really count that I ate it because I puke it all every time LOL. Yeah that is disgusting but at least I did not digest that crap. It is very bad for you. Ever wonder the puzzle why poor people are so obese? They must have hidden money, right? No! All their calories are carbs and disgusting fat. The cheaper the food the more the fattening. The more expensive, usually but not always mostly leaner. Paying people to stand their and cut the fat off. Or veggies nicely arranged. Presentation is also key to a good meal. Not to be had at Taco Bell of course. Paper wrappers instead of the finest China but of course. Speaking of courses, 7 courses less fat here than going out for one box meal at the Bell. I am also guilty as charged though. Even though I do in fact puke it. Some nurse, he is an enabler. Nah, I love the guy. I set him up for life already. I do not do that for just anyone. He earned it from me. The taco Bell gotta go though. No more of that shit in my home. I give him the bad news in a couple hours. If he wants it fine, but make sure I am not aware and that includes the trash. Although that might not work either because if he is gone I can guess where he went at 3AM! a nurse practitioner should know better. He is practically a Doctor. He can even write prescriptions. WTF? Ill talk with him. Jinx'd I care about you too man. How about we all quit fast food together. If you must eat meat do like Manny. He eats damn good. Okay, done with that rant. You thought it was never ending, right? LOL. Okay, you got me. As for he grass fed beef I just enjoy the smell of their farts! J/K. That shit ranks. Trust me I have first hand experience in those matters! I will get you the whole hole later. No pun intended. Of course there is. Man, my great grandson brought this chicken he liked inside. I told him he could have a pet. Wrong idea of mine. That little fucker shit on everything in sight! Dumplings anyone? Joking of course but has to go back outside. Pick another son. A damn goat I don't care. I draw the line at lions. Well, I am just trying to be funny. I hope you folks see it that way. Certainly no offense intended as usual. I am not even being very serious. Keeping it light. Taco bell is dead-ly serious though I may fear. Barring the fact your server even spits, boogers or pubes it for extra zest! One time there I had a diet Pepsi that tasted just like ass. HMM. Not that I would be particularly keen on the taste of ass therefore! Agreed, probably best to just avoid for a myriad of reasons! Digging this exclamation point this evening! Okay, lets go measure some holes! Nawty, Nawty! BTW, that is only a $700 caliper. Too lazy to go use the $3,000 one. You got me, bragging this time HAHA. Well, I can tell you one thing for sure, neither one was purchased at Harbor Freight, Duh. I hope you folks think this is humorous, I am trying my best. Old farts= not so funny anymore.
