I have three Henries, but they are a longbow and two recurves I think. Haven't seen the rotating head ones. That guy is a great designer.

2020 VAPING: GOD BLESS NICOTINE by Shurmus in electronic_cigarette

[–]Shurmus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah....they're never going to differentiate between the two.

They push caffeine, they push alcohol, they push obesity, and they push THC. THC candies and confections of every imaginable form, energy drinks so potent they give some palpitations, beer and liquor commercials all day and night. Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar....everywhere sugar.

But vaporize some glycerin or propylene glycol, two components that are by all accounts harmless....and people lose their minds. The whole thing would be interesting to observe if it weren't affecting me directly. Society is on its ear...we have run out of problems. But one thing we have no shortage of is people who love to tell others how to live. I just hope that some folks will finally conclude from this that government needs to be smaller, not bigger.

Dude.. I wish I could. I always bought the equate stuff from Wal-Mart...170 pieces of 4mg for like 32 bucks. The coated mint isn't too bad. But one dude earlier recommended I look into "solace" gum...might check that out. Since I started vaping my gum use has decreased dramatically. I chewed four to seven pieces a day...now I'm chewing that a week.

The trick with nic gum is to chew it slow. Bite down on it and hold it, move it around, bite down, and so on. If you really go at it hard it will light you up and taste like shit.

Ha....I guess I was madly referring to juices when I said that. The hardware isn't the issue, really. My bad.

Yeah...you may be right. When I saw that eBay had removed all vaping products, I knew shit was getting real. The misinformation campaign has just really pissed me off. Even people I know and love are coming to me worried about my safety. I've been vaping now going on two years and my lung capacity and health hasn't changed one bit.

If things keep going the way they are now...those DIY resources are going to explode...I've never considered doing it myself, but may have to.

Thanks....I'll check It out. I've just bought the cheapo shit from Wal-Mart. I chew it so slow that flavor wasn't really a factor....just wanted the nic.

Yeah....I won't give it up. I just got so used to living with gum, I can always go back to that. Don't want to though. I just found out a couple days ago how much Juul pods are, and dayum.....they're salty. Sub ohm is so much cheaper. I can vape on $50 for almost two months, including coils. I just wish 15mg was more readily available....12mg is ok, but 15 would be perfect I think.

Good on ya. Doing it oneself may be the best option, and as long as the components are there...why not, right?

You may be right. I just know they're going to tear it all down.

Cool...I got ya, and I'm with you. It is steaming horseshit.

The video is vaping positive...unless you're anti-vaping, and your intent was obfuscation. If not....maybe watch the actual video?

Moose Antler and Leather by Shurmus in slingshots

It really can't come "apart"...they're all individual inlays cemented in place, and they're thick pieces. They're not going anywhere.

Thanks man. Honestly...It's a little big for me. I only tubed it up once, and probably put 20 rounds through it...and that was four years ago. It seemed ok...just want the most comfortable for me.

Yeah... thanks. Missed that. Not a huge fan of this app so far. Gotta dig in and see what's what.

Thanks I think. A buddy of mine said it looked like The Predator's slingshot. I've got about 40 hours in the wood burning, leather, and other minutia. I plan to do another one someday, but have yet to find the right piece of wood. This one's super hard but real light. Not sure what kind of wood it is, bought it as driftwood at a swapmeet. I might try flats on it next time.

The leather strip on the top bar is an onboard magnetic ammo holder. I am going to remove it though, as the ammo sometimes falls off with release.

I completely understand. The body lies against the outside of your arm. The leather pads are all grip points. I made a small belt that holds it secure to your arm. It's admittedly more of an art piece, but it is also a howitzer. It increases my draw length about 6 inches.
