In martial arts, the more one is advanced in the art, the more he/she appreciates other martial artists and sees the minute details and internal movements. It's like speaking a secret advanced language.

This is what i see in this post. You have a great nose brother!
Creamy floral is the signature of Manipur! The minute sub classification if you will. And as you said, all hindi is still hindi!

Hats off. Ossu! 🤜🏼
Thank you for the nice words brother.
Hindi oils & wood are hard to describe, especially challenging when comparing one example to another. The differences from region to region are profound, yet subtle.
 
PNG wood sample from ASO. I've never smelled anything like this before from a wood! It actually smells like a perfume, one which i recognize but can't put my finger on. After a few more minutes I now am pretty sure this is the same wood or maybe an oud made from this wood that ASO has put into one of his bakoors which he was also kind enough to send me a sample of. I was unsure about that bakhoor at first but i'm positive this is the same.

Those PNG bullets as I call them. Those are rare as hens teeth, I have a small amount left, those who know, know.
 
Used charcoal again as my electric heater has a screw loose and isn't heating lol. It was cheap, so I am gonna wait till I can afford the £250 heater from Uncle Kai on etsy. This time though, I blasted the charcoal for a few mins all the way through with my torch until it became somewhat ashy, then left it for 20 mins (usually before when I used charcoal I would only wait 5-10mins which wasnt enough) and I used some of my Sumatra wood on it that I got from sproaty.

Notes of super woodiness, oudy, caramel, creamy, chocolate, creamy chocolate, spicy (some off notes), gasoline/diesel/petrol (whatever you wanna call it), creamy gasoline chocolate, creamy gasoline, gasoline and spice with some chocolate. The woodiness was extreme in this wood, and even some of the more white pieces bubbled lol. It was mainly a really nice, woody, oudy, caramel, chocolatey wood. With all the nuanced notes mentioned above. Lasted around 45mins? Maybe 50? Was nice.

i haven’t had any issues with the black, cream is painted too!?
I know, I dont really know either. Just that Sam told me that he heard the black one was releasing gasses. @Maunamoku step in please on what you meant lol? Maybe I got it wrong, idk?

But it's probably nothing, or a faulty machine he heard someone having? I think that is the most likely thing.

Also @FreeSoul is this one still powered by a USB-C charger and you can charge it and then carry it anywhere? And does it come with the tools, like the brushes etc?

You will have to find the original review on the forum, I do not have it saved. It was not my review.
