hey @CanikUser19
I think I'm on the list of "nolife" people obsessed with the Dan Morrison universe...

@Electrofever
Thank you for the message !!
I am also surprised to have achieved this...!
that's what I wrote to Dan... "I'm under 40, I have two beautiful children and the most beautiful collection I could dream of... I've made a success of my life!!!"

@Copacetic
I already have an alarm system, but a safe or the adoption of 3 dogs - including one called Cerberus - are actually being considered!! ahaha
(and on the association of ideas, I clearly associated this Nomad with the film Interstellar, itself associated with a major event in my life.
but graphically, Tintin really seemed perfect to me!!!)



Have a good week !

Ahah, someone in my country said years ago that if at 40 you didn’t own a Rolex, you missed your life. I don’t know if you have a Rolex, but no need with the collection you have !! :cool:

I received my curved stem from GVB a week ago I think.

I prefer the slightly more restricted draw of my other stems, but the experience is pleasant.
The cooling level is sufficient. We lose a little flavor, but it's reasonable.
I'm glad I was able to catch one! even if it's not the stem I'll use the most, it will have its place in the rotation.

And... it's beautiful!!
it goes beautifully with the last Nomad I purchased.
But, because of its shape, it pairs better with the Toads, in my opinion. because it is more elongated.








Everyone have a good start to the week!

Anybody else feel anxious to receive their batch 2 Nomad, yet wonder once it arrives - if they'll slightly miss having something so elusive and meticulously expertly crafted to be waiting for?

There is a slight excitement to it, although I'm very ready to have it already lol.

Have you heard anything? I was just today reading talk of another batch of Toads going out and wondering if we were any closer to getting batch 2.

I think we should all receive medals for being soooo patient!!

To be honest, even though it's a piece of art, since I've had this Nomad55, I've been a little frustrated by the extraction and airflow, which I found far too airy for my taste, especially to take full advantage of the oven. I first made a leather reducer but wasn't really satisfied.

So I sent my Nomad to my friend @Kalu (not without fear of losing it along the way:)), who made me a little wooden airflow reducer, perfect for my preferences. I love Dan's work.

@Duba
it looks like coal Okin... I love it 😁

I'm obviously less frustrated than you by the air flow, but I'm really tempted to ask for similar parts... which I will finish the adjustment myself...

I sent @Kalu my Okin crown recently, but I won't be able to send him one of my other Dan devices?!!!
you are crazy 🙃 👏 😁


edit 2: Kalu won't make any more.. (he purposely didn't keep the measurements!! 😅👍)

High Artisan has created a Toad section...
(edit: good vibes boro too!! what an exciting time for me!!)
that's excellent news !!!
the two custom stems I ordered from him are my favorite options...
I just ordered a third one that was in his catalog... I don't know the color.... but both were magnificent so.... surprise!
I'm really not a fan of glass but I'm starting to have an interesting collection of stems for my Dan devices 😁

Happy weekend everyone!
