3.7 V copper mod with a twist
« on: October 06, 2011, 11:01:25 PM »
This is a  copper mod I made based on mods created by Breaktru. I  Incorporated some of his design features as well. The biggest difference is the protective cap and fire button location. I work construction at times, and I've had issues with breaking and burning up atomizers in my pocket. With this mod, those days are over. Thank you for the inspiration Breaktru.   :thumbsup: More pics and video @ Learfx.com

Very nicely done and I like with what you came up with for the a button guard.
Great idea.

I like it Learfx, smart idea to protecting the button.  :beer-toast:
Looks like a nice rugged construction type PV.
Did you ruff it up with coarse sandpaper for that construction look?

Thanks guys I'm glad you liked it. I did rough it up with plumbers sand cloth to clean it up a little. I also used  photo editing software to sharpen up the image, so it looks a little rougher then it actually is.  :yes"

This is experimental artwork using a laser printer, photo paper and a blow torch :idea:. The cut on the copper cap is a little rough but the image turned out surprisingly well. There was a lot of trial and error with getting the image to stick to the copper. The toner from the laser printer is tough and It will not come off when I scratch it with my finger nail. I wish I could do the rest of the mod but the heat would ruin the solder joints.

Damn dude, that's sweet!  :drooling:

Too bad you didn't think of doing that before you built the mod, huh?

Okay, now ya gotta disclose how you did it.

Fair is fair....out with it!  :rules:

@ Breaktru.... Na, Google was my friend for that image. I have a hard enough time drawing stick figures, let alone intricate drawings.

@ timesarerough... It's the story of my life, a day late and a dollar short  :wallbash: I'll do it on my next mod tho. The process of putting the image on the copper is easy. Find something you like, print it out on photo paper using a laser printer. Then the tricky part comes with trying to heat the copper up to the point where the toner from the printer sticks and the photo paper doesn't  ;D  But that's about it.
