DIY Digest XXXI: All Good Things...
submitted almost 6 years ago by ApexifiedThe Kingmaker

#The Giveaways > At the rate we’re going, they’ll never end! People keep stepping up to give back to the community in the form of free flavors and the occasional gift card. And that’s just the people, there’s also a line of vendors waiting to do the same. Gotta love the generosity.

> Single Flavor Giveaway is going strong with about 10 more FREE flavors added to the mix. Today is its last day as a stickied post so join the Discord and get in on the action.

AND

> Dico’s Christmas Contest! which is ongoing (Until Dec 15th) and will be stickied later, before it’s all over.

 

#Highlights from Last Week

  • /u/Passafire let us know about CNN mentioning and linking to the subreddit in this article. The article itself isn’t terrible but some of the sources they relied on definitely were. As /u/Fear_Nocturnal pointed out:

> "To have people mixing their own e-cigarette liquid is crazy. These are very toxic chemicals," said Stanton Glantz, a professor of medicine and the director of the Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education at the University of California-San Francisco. "If you drop a little bit of nicotine on your skin, it can send you to the hospital." >Um. I’ve gotten drops of 100mg nic on my skin and I was fine. Wash, rinse, back to mixing. Fear mongering at its finest.

In the shout-outs from grateful new mixers category:

  • /u/Denskey203 thanked the Noted crew (and the rest of the community) for helping them get their DIY journey off to a good start. > “Your show was the first thing I stumbled upon when I got curious about mixing my own eliquid. You guys were instrumental in creating a general list of not shit flavored as well as giving me enough info where I felt confident spending 300 dollars to get started. Most importantly I really respect that you are all so closely tied to the community and still go through and read posts on reddit and take time to reply to posts like mine.”

  • /u/116129 lurked here for awhile and was “happy af” with the results!

Recipes

  • /u/bigtidder “Today I’m releasing Tangy Orange Creamsicle in celebration of four years tobacco-free. This is my second front page recipe, posted on the anniversary of my first one, PB Custard Cups!

  • /u/xGRANITEx the Custard King himself, decided to take a(nother) break from Custard to release Emma Watson, a Citrus Vape

In Helpful Posts we had:

  • /u/mlNikon explains her process of Batch Testing recipes. >Batch mixing, in its simplest form, is just mixing up several versions of a recipe at once. It saves a bunch of time and is really useful for comparing ingredients when you want to make your recipe just right.

  • /u/Shty_Dev made a script that copies all the flavors in your cart (at several vendors) as a list you can then share (in the Discord #check-my-order-please channel, for instance) or save (just in case it disappears from their site)

 

#Throwback Highlight

  • Our resident prolific mixers /u/xGRANITEx and /u/AlfredPudding are back at it again, this time joining forces to create Rice Silky Treats an excellent looking recipe with a plethora of suggestions on additional flavors that can be added to remix the experience.

I just dropped 60mg nic on my hand, so I cut it off. I don’t think it poisoned me. Should I throw the hand out?

Keep it in the freezer, you might need that nic later.
