Hey Everyone, First of all, my sincere apologies to everyone who experienced some delay or confusion in the past month. Business started picking up, and I attempted to hire someone to help me alleviate the burden and let me continue running the operation, but this didn't work out so well -...

Sorry mods - the sale thread is now here.

Modnote: This has been given approval because of the cause, but normally would not be allowed. Thanks for helping Abysmal Vapor! As a lampworker I inadvertently end up making pipes as a warm up exercise - selling to a B&M store isn't really worth it since they're not my main product, so I've...

Modnote: Although this is for a good cause, it fails to follow protocol when it comes to B/S/T. Please repost in the Buy/Sell/Trade thread and link back to it here. So I have an idea... being a lampworker I end up making a few spoons and other smoking implements on the side... I don't...

We're thinking of you over here, Abysmal. I have heard that Golden is Sofia's sister city, but with all the differences in politic and process I can only hope that the other sister catches up with the times. It is a hard struggle to get everything legal over here, so I can only imagine what it...

Word up. The post above is specifically targeted at my products, but some additional info for use with glass nails and the like would be that you really don't want to leave the glass nail sitting in the torch flame for prolonged periods of time - once you see the flame go from only blue to...

You are wise to bring this up: stress cracking is an issue I was worried about in the design phase - getting glass above the stress temperature (about 950 F for boro) repeatedly is definitely hard use. This is actually one of the reasons why the vapes are only 1.5-1.8mm thick for the heat...

I have to admit it's really fun to hit these in the glassblowing shop, since I have a really small hand torch I use for polishing the seams on bubblers and the like... it's the smallest flame I use but it's still hotter than any butane torch, simply because it's propane/oxygen... it heats the...

For you coffee junkies out there, try out an Aeropress.... it's similar to cold brew in having low acidity, and has the flavor profile of a french press without the grit in the bottom of the cup. Easily the best coffeemaker that exists. I like pulling shots on a La Pavoni lever machine, but for...

There is a bit of a learning curve with my vapes, but you can at least rest assured that you're not inhaling anything other than what is contained within your herbs... Even then, vapor can be irritating to the lungs - they were meant to take oxygen out of the air, not various oils and...

You have absolutely no idea how much I enjoy hearing the above video narrated in a British accent... excellent vid. Also, the closed vial and stopper included work great with the mouthpiece you showed in the video - you can place oil in the vial, heat the vial slowly like an Eclipse, and the...

Ooooh, that's an interesting idea... I'll look into getting that fabric into my pouches. I had these designed with cotton insides so no melting to the piece, but it can still singe if the vape's above 500 degrees or so. Letting it cool for about 20 seconds should be enough to put it in the pouch...

Heya all! Exciting news... the new website is going up this week, and I got some new pouches! These ones come in two flavors - one for both the classic and GonG vapes, with two individual sections, and one for the classic vape and a stash tube, with three sections. Here's a quick and dirty pic...

Heya Bio, Sorry to hear about the fit to your waterpipe being problematic - if you could post or email me a picture of your rig with the vape attached, it would help in my design to make future adapters. I'll make you a new adapter for your trouble if you like :D

To clean the heat exchanger section, cup your hand over one end, and then pour in a bit of coarse salt and some isopropyl alcohol and then shake it like mad. The alcohol won't dissolve the salt (mostly), which will scrub away at all the little indentations. The buildup is mostly carbon and comes...
