This community is too quiet! Let’s get some chatter going!

I’ve been dreaming up a 3D printed stem for the Vapcap… but I want to do a few different things that wouldn’t be possible with traditional manufacturing, like hollow sections for holding safely without burning your fingers, multiple mini air-intake holes so I can adjust airflow simply by selecting how many air holes my thumb and index finger cover, etc.

I was thinking about something crazy like 3D printing pure silver or gold for that extra bling factor.

I’d love to hear some other thoughts or wishlist ideas from other ents. If you could design your ultimate dream stem, what design elements would you love to see incorporated?

I’m thinking about my classic knurl texture - I gotta add that somewhere to the design! lol

    Thanks for the ideas! I was thinking about 14mm male fitting, but I wasn’t sure how popular that’d be.

    I’m thinking about making it a bit longer as well - maybe 35% longer than my 2020-M so that I can have better heat management to avoid burning my fingers if I get too close to the stem lol. But I’m wondering if a shorter stealthier option might be more popular…
