Thanks for the kind words all!
Kimber?!?!? No way, I'm too po' for that kind of iron. That's a Taurus which I've used to out-shoot Kimber owners on a regular basis...heh...I know, it's the shooter, not the iron.

I got that syringe for free from the Pharmacy at Walgreens. The dude originally offered me a real one (no hypo of course), but it was way too thin to stuff polyfil into without making a total mess.
Also, when you use a syringe, don't squeeze any more than 5 carts worth of polyfil. Any more and it gets hard to extract, and the force exerted may cause a catastrophic failure of the syringe.

Funny story, I was at work on Sat night with my 'works' on my desk. Juice bottles, batts, syringe, T-pins, etc. I think I caused a bit of an uproar because it looked like I was dealing smack instead of nic. Only thing missing was a spoon and a lighter. LOL!!!

Where did you get the foam? I've seen a bunch of different "Blue Foam" suggested.

'Morning Brad! Super Bhawk? SHWEET!!!!!

The foam is Marineland brand, Size U. Here is a pic of the product. Any Petsmart or Petco will carry it. I paid $8 for mine and it'll last years.

First time out I picked up the Marineland size V. Totally different material than the size U. Size V is more like a light weight thick and airy "Fluval" like material. I had good success with it, but today I picked up the size U. What a difference!! Got consistently solid vapes all the way through the first cart, and basically drained the cart with very little juice left in the material....and never once had to "Thermometer flick".
On the second cart I found I had to be careful to keep it LED end up at first to prevent flooding the atty. I think I may have to experiment with the width of the foam, but man...this is the stuff!!
Thanks again EE :D
Regards,
Bob

Great video EE. Pretty inventive using the syringe. Vaping seems to bring out the Macgyver in us out. Vaping and modding my PV's has become my new hobby. A full time hobby. :D

Blue Foam.
Yep, $8.52 at Petsmart. Will I ever use it all...geez. This will last forever.
Easy as heck to use.
No more roll there, fold here and there, take it out, cut it, put it back in, snip there...blah, blah, blah. I know I'm lazy but damn. Blue Foam is my hero.
This mod took in much more juice then I expected. Had to learn not to over fill. Nothing like a rush of nicotine bananas in your mouth. oops.
Consistant vapor.
Cart lasts much longer. More juice so - duh.
It's so easy a caveman can do it.

I just blue foam modded my Magma... I'd post more, but I think I'm going to just vape myself into a nicotine induced coma right now... :lol:

Awesome video, and a great idea with the syringe. Now I might finally use up all my stock carts I have lying around :mrgreen:
