I have thought about the trading thing I think i will head over that area and see what i can round up that might be worth something to someone. As my luck goes some of these juices that were bad just yesterday morning are starting to come together. Im starting to dig this blueberry. I also have this ry4 that I'm not into but i do have some vanilla juice and some caramel loranns

I guess i am a little gun shy at the moment because my first ventures into diy were repulsive, and not to mention messy. I really don't have the ideal setup for this yet.

Yea..I try to give any juice at least a complete day or two before deciding...so many start off too harsh or whatever and later seem to be OK

Just an example, our first juice venture from freedomsmoke was a five pack five ml sampler of tobacco stuff and a five pack 3ml sampler off sweet stuff for wife. Our free sample was wyatt earp. I tried all of my tobaccos, only liked one, tried the wyatt earp, and found it to be far too perfume like. I tried most of my wife's sweet stuff, cream soda, vanilla extreme, chocolate, cookie dough, and another, can't remember which now. All the sweet stuff was kind of good, not spectacular though, we put in another order to another site that day. It's been two weeks since those have been sitting in my fridge, and I popped open the cream soda to get rid of it (24mg was too harsh for wife). With fresh cartos recently arrived, I was surprised at how much better it was. I vaped that for over a day and threw some wyatt earp on top of it, and I was surprised to find another good tobacco combo from a tobacco taste I initially didn't like at all. I'm sure the fresh cartos helped, but aging in the refrigerator definitely livened things up as well. End product, vanilla tobacco that's reasonable, and not perfume like at all. Also, fresh carts made the wife like the 24mg much more, she's working on those again, and loves the cookie dough now.

Now I get the squabbling from my tobacco DIY or otherwise thread, even what you think might be junk can turn to gold if you add the right stuff to it in the right filler. I'm still looking forward to trying the suggested tobaccos, but now I'm grumpy I'm outta cream soda and still have a full sampler of earp :P

I have a bucket with 50 or 100 bottles in it that I have tried and not liked. My sister in law just started vaping, thought I'd let her pick them over, then I may throw the rest up here and see if any of you want them.

Ever thought about going on that show hoarders, or the other buried alive? How many vacuums do you have? :P

HiRezL

Three, but that's my wife, not me. I'd throw out the old ones when we get new ones, she wants to keep 'em. Now mowers, I got a few of . . . I told her the next big trash pickup, I'm putting all 6 of my old gas mowers out. That'll leave me with just two electrics, and a rider I'm converting to electric.

LOL
I think everyone makes toxic waste when they first start.
It's nothing like coming up with a food recipe using ingredients you've been eating your whole life, and most of the flavorings take on a completely unexpected characteristic once they turn to vapor.
Trial and error, along with a pad to record every recipe with notes, will be your best friends.

I usually start with a simple 10% 2-3 flavor 3ml recipe.
Vape a little bit and make notes.
Add a few drops of something else, PGA, MTS, other flavor, or more of the same flavor depending on the first impression.
Vape a little bit, make more notes.
Repeat.

Sometimes you'll hit on something you like, then you can look at your notes and make an educated guess at duplicating it again from scratch.
Other times you'll end up with 1-2ml of leftover overflavored crap, and notes on what not to do again.
If you're really really lucky, sometimes the leftover crap turns into something vapable after a few days of sitting.

Just teasing rez, but you should recycle those mowers and get a few bucks from em instead of just trashing them...

HiRezL

I figure if I have 'em out by the trash, somebody will come along and either grab them to repair, or grab them for the scrap value. Either way, I'm good.

berger

Oh you can bet people will scrap them..the blocks are worth a few bucks with the prices on aluminum up to all time highs

HiRezL

I think a couple of them still run. I just got tired of dinking around with gas, oil, plugs, etc., every spring. My electrics start when I push the button, every time.
