@ataxian Whatever you are most comfortable with. I have absolutely no wish to be prescriptive on the issue. I speak only for myself.
Another way of framing this log vs non-log debate is to consider their production. People like Dave UD or Ed WS and others like them are true craftsmen. Each unit they build is made by hand.
It takes great skill and minute attention to detail (trust me on that - I'm learning the hard way!). And it takes a profound concern for the person who is going to be using it - which is why their CS is second to none.
It also explains why log users feel themselves to be part of a community.
Compare that with a perfectly functional desktop vape that comes with a perfectly adequate warranty... that is made in a factory somewhere. That works for some people, yes. Just not for me.
@Stevenski Many thanks for the encouragement. My efforts to date would look hoplessly amateur next to the many beautiful logs shown on that thread. But I guess there are worse things in life than being regarded as hoplessly amateur, eh?
