You can reuse the blue foam a bit, but after awhile it starts to shrink. I cut up a pantload of pieces so when i refill I've got them at the ready. Sounds like you are cutting it right, but I make it so they need to be stuffed in, (not to hard though) to account for the impending shrinkage after that first fill. Once you do it a few times you'll get the hang of it and know what to do.
If your atty is brand spankin new you may need to rev it up a bit. magma attys dont have a very long break in period in my experience. Usually within the first 20 minutes they are firing off some major vapor.

I know EvilErnie was capping his carts with some type of electrical cap. I tried to find some at Lowes this morning with no luck. Anyone have a source for these? (I use the volcanos, not the magma--though t hat might be the hubby's Christmas gift!)
If it has tires or testicles, you're gonna have problems with it!

the caps that EE was using I believe he said were something only he can get from his work place. Bt I know a lot of people were using metal shelving caps from Home Depot and Lowes. There is a thread in the Vaping tips section. saying which ones they were using.

But they seem to be out of them again, because I keep checking for them myself, but so far, still out of stock for the past couple of weeks.

WHOA!

You're using Solid Gold there EE!

According to this site, they sell for around $39 per hundred, plus shipping charges! :D

but they are about half that price here:
