Str8 - The Drum - 5ml Steel DC Tank

I made this pretty looking 5ml steel tank and thought id share . It looks awesome .I call it the Drum . It fits DC or XL cartos. It is a bit of a pain to change cartos because its pretty tight,a good thing and a bad thing. If i use the tapered drip tip to push the carto through its not bad. It doesnt leak at all. Its also pretty heavy since its steel .The top is threaded which makes it a bit hard to fill without pulling the top cap off the carto . I will probably thread a fill hole in it to make it easy. I was also thinking of building a rebuildable atty out of one.










BTW dont pay attention to the nasty carto in it . Thats my test carto that stays in my drill bit bin.

 

Pretty cool. Where do you come up with these ideas?

Haven't you ever heard of the "Slap Yo Mama"? It makes inserting cartos and filling tanks a lot easier.

 

Thats a good idea . Iv never seen that before . The tapered drip tip works great though.

I also have another one but instead of the drum it looks like a duracell D battery. The poison one is great for kids too . Well not great for them to vape it lol but to stay away from it because it says poison.I was also thinking of making a 18350 mechanical mod out of one if its possible.

 

Str8, your ingenuity never ceases to amaze me. Very cool indeed.

 

Pretty sweet! I'd rock that.

 

Got these colors too

 

Can you put a tank inside of one of those barrels so you can slot the barrel so we can see the juice?

 

Nice again you amaze me.

 

Its possible . I was debated keeping it bare steel inside of there or doing a inner tube with poly carbonate. Only issue is id have to seal it somehow which would be very hard since it has a threaded cap . Unless i dont unscrew the cap at all and seal the ends of the tube with a food grade sealent.

 

Oh, pretty colors. Freaking awesome.

 

Wouldn't bare steel effect the taste of the juice? A lot of people can taste the metal in attys.

 

You're silly -- and I mean that in a good way!!!:cool2::cool2::cool2:

 

Casey I have a solid steel tube tank from Bigdaddyvapor and it's not the Who's your daddy no window and I dont taste the steel.

 

It is possible which is why i like to use polycarbonate but steel is a non corroding alloy so its not gonna turn the juice colors like aluminum,brass,copper etc. There are a bunch of steel tanks out and mostly all ecig parts that come in contact with juice are steel. I will most likely be using the nylon sleeve thats inside it though.

I really want to make one into a reuildable atty. Its almost perfect for that.

 

Is the steel stainless?

In the food industry, if it is regular steel, food grade 55 gallon drums are all coated with a food grade sealer..if the drums are not sealed with this, the food can have reactions to metal and cause leeching of unwanted items into the food/liquid/oil inside of the drum.

If your tanks are stainless than I see no problem especially if one was a Monster Energy drink can. Lol

A rebuildable atty would be cool. I'd really like to see what you can do with that.

 

Could also do a rebuildable tank atty since theres plenty room inside there.

 

Str8,

Your Drum is awesome, just had to drop in a comment on how cool I thought it was. Is that for personal use, or are you considering selling them? If you prefer, you can PM me to discuss.

 

It is for personal use . Im sure i can make someone one if they really wanted it but since its not the easiest to use design that i mentioned above i wouldnt make them to sell. If i can get it to where carto changes and filling are really simple then maybe.I havent had time to play with it last week.

btw someone asked what material it is .It is Stainless steel .

 

fantastic, really beautiful:foryou5:
