Our story

From the garage to the workshop

A vaping enthusiast, a small 3D printer, and the urge to design his own mods. This is how Mod’s House was born.

Mod’s House

There was no plan. There was a passion, a small 3D printer at home, and fellow enthusiasts who liked what I showed them.

The discovery

In 2020, I discover vaping, then very quickly the hardware. I spend hours in enthusiast groups, and that is where I discover mechanical vaping: no electronics, only metal, contacts and the precision of machining. I want my own. So I decide to design it.

02 The early days

The printer, then the garage

No workshop: a small 3D printer, at home. I design, I print, I correct, I print again. I show my prototypes in my small private groups. The feedback is good.

Then things get serious. The parts now come from professional printers, and I assemble them in my garage, one by one, with silver contact strips.

Metal

The project grows. Through friends, I find a precision machining workshop, and my first machined mechanical mods come to life. The design leaves plastic for metal.

Engraving and Cerakote

I buy my first laser engraver. I learn engraving piece after piece, until I get the line I want. Then comes the equipment for Cerakote.

The first AIOs

Then I move on to electronics. With the machining workshop, I develop my first AIOs, including the Exode, on Dicodes V3 electronics. Other AIOs follow, then my first squonk box, with an Evolv DNA60 chip: the Sigma.

At the same time, I teach myself 3D design and the rules of industry.

06 Today

The workshop

The garage days are over. Today Mod’s House works in a large workshop in the Hérault: this is where our pieces are designed, and where the engraving and Cerakote are done. A second laser has joined the first, and the engravings have become even finer.

Mod’s House also designs for other brands, from high-end to mass market. The name has grown little by little, among professionals and enthusiasts alike.

Craftsmanship

Design

Every piece is designed in 3D, in the workshop.

Engraving

Two lasers, and engravings of rare finesse.

Detail

Every mod is thought through, right down to what you cannot see: access to the electronics for repair, how the boards are fixed, the soldering.

The community

A story of enthusiasts

Many of our customers have become friends. They follow every series and tell us frankly what they think. To talk with us, or to join the private group, this is the place.

“Six years later, I am still designing the next piece.”
