Would anyone like me to make an Exocet step by step photo tutorial like I used to in the old tank days ?

That would be very helpful dude cheers.

From your experience the vapeshell sounds like something I'd prefer. I can just about do a lose MTL draw with the Exocet but it's natural draw tends towards a restricted DTL. Interesting you're having build problems with the Exocet bodes well for the vapeshell I think. Hopefully I'll get a chance to put a quick build in it when I get it tomorrow.

I’d agree, restricted dtl out the box on the Exocet, hopefully you will get on better with the vapeshell, I found both the Exocet and the vapeshell easy to build, easy to wick, the problem I’m having with the Exocet is not leaking, it’s dry hits...

That would be great if you could @TartanSpartan

Have just had a go myself with the Exo. Used a Kayfun reducer to get a tighter draw and followed all the advice in this thread. It seems to be working perfectly now. Great draw and flavour. Cheers

The cheap vapeshell reducers from fasttech: I’ve tried two from the set I got and they have worked fine. They look exactly the same as the ones that come with the sxk vapeshell (no o rings). Like @Discomatt says, they might be variable in quality and maybe I was lucky and got decent ones.

So if you’re a tight git like me, put your order on hold and add a set of these, otherwise get the authentic ones if the stock ones are too loose.

I’ll try and do a re wick tonight and do some photos

Where shall I put it @Rob in the BB section somewhere or the how to guides ?
