First non video thread at Google is this Pyramid Tea Bag mod - Quick and Easy |

I've used the paper bags, and they're great, but the PET mesh is even greater! It wicks the cart completely dry, down to the last drop. When I get the first inkling of a dry hit, I pull the cart and sure enough, time to refill! Keeps the atty nice and wet without flooding ... it's the next best thing to dripping, and at my vape rate, I only need to refill the cart about once an hour. Works like a little baby tank ...

Plus they're easy to switch around for sampling flavors, and they're cheap, meaning I can keep a filled and capped cart for every juice sample and DIY run. I've tried to love cartos, but no joy there for me. Now, if I could afford to stick an Odysseus or a Genesis on top of all my Twists, that would be another story ...
What do you use?

See if they can send some scraps for "samples"; tell them you're working on something and are testing materials. You'll probably get enough to last you the rest of your natural life. Quote:

That atty killer thread was one of the first ones I read before I joined the forum! Kept me in stitches for hours (that's one long thread!) ... sort of a twisted tech soap opera for our time. I remember thinking to myself as I was reading about your adventures and ever-escalating efforts at attycide, "This guy is Dexter for attys ..."

| I remember someone saying bridal veil material is the same thing as the LPTB's, and they bought it by the yard at someplace like Michaels.

currently I'm using a Vivi Nova and I can't recall a time in the last two and a half years that I spent less time worrying about my equipment and more time enjoying vaping than I am right now..... | |

| That's what caused me to start dripping: I realized I was mostly just dripping anyway, while filling all those @#$%& cartridges and spending hours messing with cart mods.

| Ego,Walmart sells polyester net ribbon for about $.30 a foot in 1inch width and it appears to be the right material. I used it a couple years back when I was using carts.

Why the Japanese name that translates to "8 6"?
In Japan, the AE86 was also known as the Hachi-Roku (ハチロク), Japanese for "eight-six". 
Once upon a time. It is now rusting into the ground. At one time...<sigh> Best car I ever owned.
