Introduction, and few photos of my MODs

[fasteddie600]

Hi,

I am new round these parts, and wanted to say hi to my fellow modders.

I thought it would be good to post a few pics of my work so far, I have been playing around for about 12 months now and hopefully I will be useful.

Here is the first MOD I completed, it was finished around xmas time and is working very merrily. I could do with putting a better battery compartment in at some point but that's on a long list of jobs to do!
I managed to assemble new microswitches and board behind the existing + and - buttons for the DNA control and switch behind the trigger on the back for the fire button. I went for a removable 18650 rather than a charger.

My second MOD is a nice simple ally box mod, simple design with a removable 18500. This was quick and easy and more time was spent getting a decent finish on the outside than anything else. Then for some reason I got an overwhelming urge to try my hand at engraving, and thought it would be great to try it out on my nice shiny mod, well its there now!

My last MOD was a little Woody, and I am really rather fond of this one. It is made from fired ash with 5mm brass top and bottom caps and incorporates a GP Paps 2.5 switch(because i think these are the best around) It has an adjustable 510 connector and has very good conductivity which I wan't expecting. It has a real heft to it and great feel in the hand, but then it was designed to fit in my hand so I would say that!

Hope you guys don't mind me posting this lot up, but it's nice to share with people that understand that urge to modify + DIY

Happy Vaping

I am so Envious!!! I'm Pretty Good at DIY so I think I'm going to have a go at building something eventually, as soon as I get time in-between doing jobs around the House and sorting out my Three Kids Houses!!! Lovely work though Mate I'm well impressed!!!

Beautiful work, especially the wood and brass mod, i'm in the middle of doing a wood and metal mod myself and will post photo's when i've finished. Nowhere near as good as yours tho, mines a bit rough and ready

They put my efforts at building mods to shame,I am restricted by lack of tools,lack of decent eyesight and severe lack of patience. All 3 of my box mods are made with Hammond type enclosures(from China so all have RM dents on top of the shit casting)and contain little else bar the mosfet & lipo cell packs.I'm thinking of a wooden box mod next,though it will likely end up huge as I love the 4 x 1000 MaH lipo cell pack as it gives me approx 30 hours of 0.22 ohm heavy vaping and performance (voltage drop) is brilliant(0.1 V @ 0.3 ohms,rising to 0.19 V @ 0.1 ohms)though the latest box has copper brake pipe for the "wiring" which was a chunt to solder(killed both my 30 watt & 100 watt irons trying to get 1" of pipe to solder to a small rectangle of copper plate)but I think both irons were well past their service life as the new 50 watt iron did the job easily.When I finally decide on 510 connector,& decide on type of wood(I have some Brazilian mahogany)and the GF allows me to buy some woodworking tools.

Very nice set of mods there mate
