Customized vape setups

[Frederick McGuire]

Update Time:
The Toro Microverter has officially been tested & reviewed, and the verdict is
It has a 14mm male joint on the top, and a 90 degree 14mm male joint on the side, and it comes with a cap that can cover one of them.
So you can cover the top and use it as an ash catcher, or put it on the side and put the 14mm mouthpiece on the top and use it as a tiny bubbler/oil rig.

It's an awesome size (I can pocket it), it's actually quite similar to the solo.
Here are some pics that show it next to a solo for comparison:


I gave it a go with my solo first, and I love how they pair up.
I've performed the performance of the solo with my smaller pieces (Aqua-Vape, Blaze 11-Arm a/c, EHLE 100ml) and the Toro didn't disappoint. It clouded up quickly, and cleared just as fast. I didn't notice as much drag with the solo, I'm thinking it's because the Toro has such a small mouthpiece, there's less of an initial flow to feel restricted? whatever it is, I've noticed similar things with my other small pieces.

A few hours later, an idea hit me;

1. Get Toro Microverter
2. put a 18-14mm reducer (18mm male, 14mm female) on the mouthpiece joint to make it act as a 14-18mm low profile male expander. ( - nothing suss)
3. put 14-18mm expander (14mm male, 18mm female) into the mouthpiece, making it an 18mm connection on the mouthpiece.
   (So far all I've done is make the mouthpiece and the top connection 18mm.)
4. Get my 7th floor old style vapor tamer, and insert it between the can and the mouthpiece.
5. 

I just filmed 2 runs with the 7th floor chilled Toro Microverter with my GonGn0me (1 run with each of my tamers)

So now I'm gonna cook some steak for dinner and test out the EFS

Oh, and check out the latest beauty from BoroMarket :

I put this in the Magic Flight thread, because I actually think it's the perfect pairing, but I though that the real glass fans here might get a giggle from it

I love good glass, but I also love a bargain! $3.50 delivered.

Believe it or not, IMO it works great with the MFLB- the downstem is thin like a Biro inside (the ink bit), giving a slow tight draw- and I prefer it for the MFLB to my 7th floor bubbler (which is also pretty crappy tbh ).

EDIT; clearer pic added.

Hi, nice little glass. Can you post a link to order it?? Where I can get it??

This reminds me of that scene in Tombstone.

Doc Holliday: And you must be Frederick. Look, darling, Frederick McGuire. The deadliest vaporist since Vito, they say. What do you think, darling? Should I hate him?
Kate: You don't even know him.
Doc Holliday: Yes, but there's just something about him. Something around the eyes, I don't know, reminds me of... me. No. I'm sure of it, I hate him.

 

[Frederick McGuire]

You know you it

(PS. I'm really digging this solo + Microverter combo)

A friend killed my new bubbler The kid has the worst luck with weed, I think he should get a vapor setup though—he's mad interested.

That said, he's being a champ and paying me back the full cost (it was very near new). I ordered a BC2011 gridded circ ashcatcher (48 hole diffusion). I'll be hooking this up to a variety of adaptors from my lab (essentially made a j-hook and vapor adaptor) and using it with my MFLB. Also looking into getting an UD log vape to help Abysmal and finally have a stationary—any excuse to spend money on vapor equipment

I'll get pics up once the A/C is here. Got it for $150 shipped with the 420 sale, which is a bit more than I spent on my old bubbler but should give MUCH better diffusion.

I feel like this ashcatcher/adapters setup is a much more cost-efficient way of getting as good diffusion as a high quality bubbler.

The water volume may not be impressive but cooling isn't so much an issue for me as dryness. Ideally it'll eventually be hooked up to a mobius matrix nano (may have to wait until I get back from study abroad).

Stoked!

whoaaa, what a great looking piece. i really like that "3D" worked part on the bottom of your water piece. you had a design in mind and they made it for you? do they have a website? also how much for that?

 

[Longbones]

The setup I mentioned a couple posts up. Love working in a chem lab.

This is a bc2011 a/c connected to a 14mm female to 18mm male expander, which is connected to a 14mm vapor whip attachment. That's connected via a food grade silicone whip to my MFLB. On the other end there's the 18mm male a/c joint connected to a 18mm female to 14mm male reducer. That's attached to a double-necked roundbottom on one side and the 14mm male stem from my now-broken bubbler.

All the lowerstress points are reinforced with keck clips (I missed one in the pic, don't sue me ). I generally hold this by the a/c (I'd rather replaceable adapters broke than the a/c, and the adapters are TOUGH glass).

Love working in a chem lab.

amen to that. there have been soooooo many times while working in a lab that i've looked at some lab equipment and thought 'man that huge beaker would be perfect for my vape..."

 

[Longbones]

For sure. Lab equipment = my big boy rubix cubes

 

[Xchadb]

my jar was custom made for me, that piece wasnt but it was made by the same artist so it matches, was little over hundred dolla bill

Plus, he can dance around while doing the patented "Pappy 10 count"

Jajjajaja and showing off his Sponge Bob Square Pants undies jajjaja I really dig Pappys style. I would do it too, in my undies, but instead I need to do it outside, in a shed, or garage. Baby in the house

 

[Zangano Cruel]

Alright, here is my Mobius Nano w/Matrix perc... Thank you Pappy and Tstat for the pictures and talk of the Mobius line and especially the Nano. I think this is my favorite piece. I wish I could afford to have a Nano with all three perc styles.
I almost had the Ion Bubbler; but after paying for it during the ALT sale, they called and informed me they actually had zero inventory and would have to give me a refund. So now I am on the hunt for Mobius bubblers...

alright... I think I got at least one or two pictures of most of my pieces with the exception of my Omnicron, and a couple small no name ash catchers, plus my Scientific Inhalation Cotton filter I received the other day...

If anyone ever wants my very uneducated neophyte reviews of these pieces, just shoot me a private email; I am more than happy to share my experiences good and bad. I just don't want to nit pick certain pieces on a public forum, overall I am satisfied to blown away by the quality of even my cheapest glass.

Hopefully by tonight I have some pictures of my new Oracle, scheduled to arrive today. Also expecting new Silver Surfer Heater cover and spherical wand today sometime. I think tonight is going to be a fun night testing new toys; I'll try to get pics.

later

Hi CH. I really like all your glass. I just wanted to know some info on that crazy big ashcatcher you got. I got the same one, Black Leaf inline to 8arm tree to dome. Thanks in advance. Some video would help

 

[VapingDitto]

Hello every one
Just here to share my wild setup I made over the weekend xD.

[t-dub]

Cant watch the video, says its private . . . nice rig

 

[VapingDitto]

Hi, nice little glass. Can you post a link to order it?? Where I can get it??

Hey Zangano, I got mine here http://www.dealextreme.com/p/colorless-transparent-glass-shisha-water-pipe-52837?item=4 but they're sold out right now and seem to have been for a while now. Some one did post a link to another store selling them somewhere in this or the Magic Flight thread, but I can't remember the store- another chinese wholesale type place- there are a few around.

 

[BigDaddyVapor]

OMG! I think I may have a winner! I'm so excited... no really. I just can't hide it. I'm about to lose control...

I think I like it.

My very FIRST entry into the world of HQ Glass, after a trip to Dementia in Sherman Oaks, CA. Its a beauty, IMO. As it did catch my eye, on a wall of some truly beautiful pieces. Pictures just don't do it justice. Now, I know its small/simple... but we can't all jump in, with Mobius bubblers, now... can we? Frederick's probably been waiting for this, just so I'll shut the Hell up. Now, I brought it home in a Sheldon Black box (it ain't one, but they lost the other) and I've been itching the whole way home, 1 1/2 hour drive, to get here and show you all. Plus, I was talking up fuckcombustion.com to the very nice (attitude and on the eyes) lady working there, Lindsay. She was rather fond of this piece, to. However, I had to break her heart. Though, if she wants to barter in trade... her body... we can talk Hopefully, she signs up!

I give you, my 100% US of A made, MiO (Made in Oregon) Heavy Glass!! (and when I say Heavy, I mean I could crack someone over the skull with this and it'd still be in one piece)

Prior to this piece, I thought I knew what low drag is. Well, actually... I guess I did. Now, I know what NO drag is. Wow... this thing pulls smoooooth, the perc stem fires beautifully. Its such a nice size for just kicking back on the couch. I hope, that I can be considered a true glass aficionado now and be welcomed with open arms. I no longer have to rely on cheap, no-name International glass (my wife can continue to use though. lol! well... she COMBUSTS!)

Finally, not sure about this. But, from what little info I can find, some guy named Jamie who owned HVY Glass, is now working for (or owns) MiO, so they're supposed to basically be the same.

P.S. Going to work on my video skills and upload a video, later.

 

[ilovebOObs]

congrats on the new piece big daddy. looking good and there is one in the classifieds just like this one too.

 

[t-dub]

The owner of my LHS says the MiO guys are down in Creswell, very close to me. I saw a 9mm (yes 9mm thick) full size piece of theirs yesterday that was absolutely bomb proof when I go back down I'll snap a pic if it is still there. Absolutely my next purchase and might inquire as to custom work.

Nice Pickup BDV, my RX industries beaker came with a similar downstem to that, I can imagine it would fire well.
That size is also IMO the perfect size for vapor, big enough volume for big hits, small enough volume for fast clearing.
That reduction in the neck is cool too, does it function like an ice pinch?

Yeah, I really like the size for vaping. When I got it home, I was kind of worried, that maybe I jumped the gun. But after using it... I was reassured. Just took adjusting my pull for the MFLB and I was pulling some pretty nice rips on it.

The reduction is indeed an ice pinch. Though, on the larger pieces, it makes a really cool effect with the smoke (or some thick milky vapor), like this one (the larger version of mine).

Thanks a lot. I didn't even know they call them glass shisha.

I tried purchasing the shisha water pipe when someone posted a link to another store that was selling it. I think it was Vito?

Anyway...a few hours after I paid the....$4 total.... I got a notice from paypal that my account had been locked & restricted.
Took about 4 months and a half dozen emails to get it re-instated

I know paypal has a beef with paraphernalia, but it even said shisha in the title -__-

 

[OhTheAgony]

I really like that Boom Felazi bubbler up there ^^

I found 3 different ones when googling, but the one pictured above would be my choice too out of those. Do you know what would be the best place to get one of those VappingDitto?
