where you're watching we'd love to see where people are tuning it in from we're
gonna be talking about the VonGs today some of the developments who had
recently and kind of how things have progressed since then our youtube
subscription is up so thank you very much for subscribing and sharing with
your friends we're really looking to increase our presence and do our part to
give people a better alternative to smoking and the option to cut the cord
and be battery independent so that being said some cool things some business to
finish up from last week had a nice comment from Bach koi farm of made a
comment about our audio last week not exactly the most positive thing but very
welcome constructive criticism just like all of our products and our service we
welcome comments on effectively everything that we do because we're
looking to improve everything we're doing make it better and that takes
input from you so if you have ideas or thoughts or suggestions on anything that
we can improve on please let us know we really want to hear about it so that
being said let's move into it what is a long-long is kind of an acronym and for
those of you that have worked with glass and are familiar with the glass on glass
adapter or the gong the Vong is simply the VapCap on glass adapter or a Vong
so it's designed to mate with 14 millimeter things oh and so big news for
this week today's flash sale buy one get one free
of our new light wood or dark wood long bodies or stems this is just the body or
just the stem so we're just selling parts here so buy one of these get one
of these buy one of these get another one of these affect your lady
combination of bodies or stems your choice if you have a preference
just leave us a note when you check out in the message box all good buy one get
one free long body or stem that goes four or five hours so join in
thanks alright so back to the VonGs VapCap on glass adapter the idea kind
of came about early in the game here when I had a little bit of feedback from
people looking to pair their VapCaps with some water tools and I got to
thinking as a there's got to be a nice simple way to incorporate our devices
which at that time was primarily just the Thai woody or the glass VapCap
with a water tool without needing some sort of adapter it's like why can't we
incorporate the adapter right into the device itself and so if you want to pull
up picture number one here Ben we can kind of scroll through some of the
pictures of some of the earlier things some of the first vlogs that we made
made by our buddy Ed's T&T a lot different than what we have now but good
quality stuff allowed you to put together a VapCap with our modular
components and then adapt it natively to these ones were both 14 and the one that
you can see the larger one an 18 millimeter adapter now if you scroll to
the next slide we can see some of them with the parts incorporated into them
Wow and we'll just kind of keep scrolling through so you can see some of
the other pictures after a while last year when he started moving all of our
manufacturing into our own shop then we decided to kind of change things up a
little bit and add some new geometries because as we're adding some CNC
machines we really wanted to see what we could do with our new tools now this one
here is kind of a fun one a nice do you Burle VonG haven't really produced many
of those but we just wanted to see if we can do it love through you burl it's
just got a real interesting aroma to it so this one here is kind of one of our
first generation in-house VonG's this was made on one of our CNC machines
it's got flat sides and the 14 millimeter taper you can see you know
with the opposite end of the tip but after making those for a while we
decided to up our game a little bit and that brings us to the current generation
non of on and let's just talk about that a little bit you know we went from the
VonG the first ones from heads TT which were generally round into the NonaVonG.
What is a NonaVonG? Well it's a good question NonaVonG is kind of
a play on a nine sided polygon called a nonagon you know naana being prefix for
nine so our original nan alongs as we're seeing on some of the earlier slides
that we made in our shop had nine sides and instead of just nine plain evenly
distributed symmetrical sides as you can see here Wow it was what I referred to
as a trisected nonagon so you have three wide sides 3 medium sides and three
small sides so you have three groups of three sides which is just kind of fun we
like math and geometry and other things like that to kind of play around with
and incorporate all kinds of different ideas concepts and features into our
devices so as we were kind of stepping things up here a little bit we decided
to add some additional geometries to our nan alongs here back a few months ago
and we added a few additional facets and some different angles and tapers and
things along those lines to really keep the interest level up made the whole not
round and just wanted to add some additional interest into our wood
products because if anyone ever thought that we were going to be getting away
from making wood products I sure hope not
we like machining wood we appreciate the challenges of making sure that all of
our tool pressure is going in the correct direction with the grain so that
things don't blow up which would likes to do that when you're machining it
especially with high speed cutting tools but when you do it right you get it
right you know with some really nice-looking stuff oh you know here's
kind of a nice piece of ash that we're playing around with so this is gonna be
one of our light wood varieties and so one of the things that we're gonna be
transitioning into his light wood and dark wood varieties which is going to
give us a little bit of latitude to more sustainably and locally-sourced
some of our woods depending on the season and the availability and just
generally selecting tight grained for the most part locally sourced hardwoods
from the Wisconsin Michigan and surrounding areas maybe Missouri
Illinois might be seeing some mulberry and some other will call them domestic
exotics in there doesn't mean there won't be exotic woods there certainly
will be those are mostly be in the Builder and when they're available but
moving forward let's talk a little bit more about you know exactly if you're
not sure how does a long work well if we look at the way that it's put together
we have our facets here and then we have the taper here on the mouthpiece end and
if you don't have a mouthpiece it's just the tapered end and how does that meet
with your water piece well if you just happen to have a piece of 14 millimeter
glass lying around it's like this as long as you have a little bit of
clearance here they drop right in with the mouthpiece on or without the
mouthpiece just a native fit right into a 14 millimeter connection so simple as
that easy peasy fits right into your 14 millimeter glass water tools all right
so we can move on to take in a couple questions here and see what we've got to
come up with get any more slides BIM awesome all right
a question about the different species of wood for the light and dark for
example one of the dark woods that we've been working with isn't a domestic wood
but it's a more sustainably sourced wood from South America called eBay real hard
nice to machine nice surface finish real likely that we're gonna see some other
cool woods like black walnut maybe some black locust as well as whatever else we
can find again we want to try and create a line of product that's going to be
easier for us to use locally sourced materials I see a question does it make
a good seal and the answer in general is yes it does if I grab the glass here
again I can stick this in here and because we have flats on the sides I can
push it in and I can give it a little bit of a twist and it'll kind of lock
right in a position and if I take this apart for example you can see I can hold
it right up by the wood piece it seals because our CNC machines are very
accurate and we can get the taper on this piece of wood precisely machined to
match the taper on the glass here so in general you get a very very nice seal
and because we have the flats machining of the wood it makes it a little bit
easier to them after you want to remove it to give it a little bit of a twist
and pop it loose okay do the xl's have a cooler vapor than the standard length
barely we're talking about a total difference in the vapor path of 17
millimeters in general the vapor path of most vapp caps because of its inverse
induction in vapor path tends to do a real good job of mixing and cooling the
vapor most people know is almost no difference between the vapor temperature
between a standard length device and an XL length device which you can see right
here here's the total net difference between the two it's not very much
the main reason why people choose one versus the other is if you have larger
hands these these devices tend to fit a little bit better in someone who has
larger hands or sometimes people just like having a little bit more length to
manipulate okay we're gonna do more bur Long's eventually right now our main
thing was just getting our geometries dialed in and working with some of these
new woods mean we had to rework some of our programs to get things to machine
nice our goal being you know the nicest surface finishes we can get and that
becomes real challenging when you're dealing with all of these flat facets
which if you haven't seen one of these things we've put a lot of thought into
our geometry here to make a real nice appearing things got real nice tactile
feedback on it and nice flat work on it that I think shows the grain of the wood
a lot better than a round geometry tends to and you can kind of see that when you
look at one that's got facets here and round here the grain looks a lot
different from the faceted side to the round side let's see what else we've got
so we got a call up from Orange County thanks for uh check it in here Illinois
Canada love it Austria thank you Oh see I saw another sailboat or a question but
what inspired the vApp cap oh just real quick don't want to get too
far off but the original vApp cap was inspired by what I perceived as a need
in the industry for a very small simple device it didn't rely on batteries and
chargers and cords and connectors and all the things just seemed to fail our
goal was to produce a product that is very very durable and also very simple
and easy to use especially for people that don't particularly care for
electronics don't want to have to be tied to the batteries and the chargers
or some of the older generation of folks that are just more simple or more
accustomed to devices that don't need to be programmed and don't have to have the
button pushed five times and digital displays and all the other fancy things
what I take one apart and put it back together absolutely just love the
questions so here we'll do like this cap tip here's our Excel condenser with
mouthpiece had these on our special last week and here's our long stem I can also
take apart the condenser here which i think is very important
there are 300 rings on every condenser that has a mouthpiece and so I'm trying
to get a lay them out here so you can see two small ones and one large one
okay the large one is always going to go
where the mouthpiece interfaces with the body or the stem okay so on an Excel
condenser or a standard condenser that's gonna be in the middle position so we're
gonna put a small ring here big o-ring here and a small ring there and the best
order to assemble them is like this small ring on the tip this way but the
large overhang on from the other end this way and push it down past the
middle groove then the mouthpiece goes on like this the smaller ring goes on
that holds the mouthpiece in place we can then slide the mouthpiece up and
over that o-ring and take the large o-ring and push it up so it's just in
contact with the mouthpiece and we can see that there's just a little bit of
play here about a half a millimeter travel that this mouthpiece should move
to and fro so it'll spin freely and easily and then again small large small
this part helps a little bit if you have a little bit of our Dino wax or some
wood conditioner to reassemble and the tapered end is the end of the mouthpiece
typically goes into if you wanted to make with your 14 millimeter glass
pieces and it just simply goes together don't push on the end here grab the
mouthpiece like this push and twist and then we get a nice integration and we
still have a little bit of play in the mouthpiece so it still spins freely and
of course the titanium tip simply pushes in if you give it a little bit of a push
and a twist at the same time it integrates like this and of course the
cap just like that we've now disassembled and reassembled the entire
device so a very simple design easy to take apart
easy to put together don't need tools also makes it very easy to clean any
concern about heating a long and induction heater I heard you say some
issues with wood splitting in the early development the wood splitting in the
early development was mainly the original type woodies that didn't have
crowns we haven't heard of many issues with the wood splitting when put into
induction heaters or really used with just about any heat source if it does
happen just let us know we'd like to take care of our customers so all in all
I'd say probably not as long as you're respecting the click and not overheating
your your your tip and/or combusting your material it's unlikely that do you
should have any significant issues but again we appreciate the feedback we want
to hear from you if you have any problems challenges or issues with our
products our service whatever it is that we do please let us know question on
heat up time steel versus titanium in general it's probably about 30 to 50
percent longer to heat up a titanium tip or a stainless steel tip versus a
titanium tip and the cooldown is about the same so the titanium being that it's
substantially lower masked and stainless steel heats up much faster and also
cools down much faster so oh yes that was a stainless steel condenser in the
tae-bong apps that we just took apart
alright so that being said I think it's time to kind of wrap things up so what
we're gonna do is we're going to we're gonna give away some goodies here again
like we did last week I think today will be kind of a combination of a light wood
long and dark wood Vong combo something like this gonna be a number of parts and
pieces so that you can add to your collection you can mix and match a
couple different things in different configurations so thanks for the
comments we're gonna send it off to one of you for participating in letting us
know where you're at and don't give us your feedback so thank you
so other than that thanks again for watching
