Glad to hear your about to be back up and running! Would really love to see you work on some new cores. Specificaly, Adding some thermal mass to the cores so that they can hold up better to group use and/or repeated use with a bubbler. Would also love to see a litter of Alpha core pups...

From left to right: Standard Nylon Direct Draw Stem, Oversized Nylon Direct Draw Stem, Standard NonG Stem 18mm, Oversized NonG Stem 18mm, XL NonG Stem 18mm. They can all produce pretty thick vapor, it really all depends on the grind, load size, draw strength and temperature used. That being...

.25 is indeed a lot of herbs for a log vape! I wouldn't say it would be something you would do frequently with a stem, since those kinds of hits are hard to take without water cooling/moistening the vapor. But it can fit in the oversized Nylon Direct stem, by adjusting the basket a bit deeper...

Quite sorry about the situation, but really glad to hear that you will be providing him with the best living conditions as possible. Life tends to throw these kind of rocks our way, but catch them and build something solid out of it is really the best thing we can do. @underdog and...

I have to agree, i love the flavor with the Gongs and glass direct draw stems. But i am always drawn back to the SS tipped stems. I love the vapor quality / extraction you can get from them. As you said, these things are incredibly effective. Following some posters suggestions, i have started...

Congrats to all the winners! @kuzko, if this is your first log vape, you are in for a treat.

Really loving it so far! Its toasting surprisingly well, with either the OS stems or the new size one. After a short moderately fast draw, the chamber is cooked thoroughly. Darker spot in the center towards a ~1-2 mm of green left around the circumference of the bowl. With larger loads, i...

@Teejay1952 , The old standard stems do not fit with the new heater. ( Well they do, but way too loosely to be of any use ) But the new "lite" stems fit on the outside of the standard cores. (The 18mm nong and the new nylon direct draw ) If you have any prototype OS stems i believe those will...

As some of you may know, i was recently given the chance to join the hallowed ranks of UD's SpaceMonkeys. The mission i was given and still continuing is to beta test a new pup with a prototype core at its hearth. Here is a new picture of the whole family along with all their stems: ( Without...

@Diggy Smalls , Can't wait to show the rest of the collection. I have a few stems that some might find quite interesting! Same here in regards to the stem types, thought i would prefer the glass ones. But so far, the SS tipped stems are by far my favorites. Quick one hit extractions with great...

Lets try this again, uploaded them to imgur this time: I have lots of other nicer pictures taken, once i recover from the multiple long mission i completed over the weekend and collect my thoughts. I'll post better 360 view of each pups and along with longer first impressions. Thank you for...

Here is a quick partial picture of the new family. I have another pup as well but hes still bit feral so hes hiding behind those wood blocks along with all of its stems. I'll hope it will be tamed soon so that i can share some full family pictures. That flame and its transition in the grain...

Oh yes, received the package last night, couldn't believe they packed so much goodies in such a small box! Went a bit overboard with the stems. But everything was so neatly packed, all the stems were snugly wrapped/identified and the dogs were rolled up in their own bubble blankets. Let me just...

15~20 Hours left! Got a cozy home set up for them with lots of glass to play with and plenty of VVPS options to sip on.Still working on a nicer house for those stems, but got a few test tube racks they can settle in for now. Can't wait to settle in and do some serious research! :science: Glad...

Only 72 long hours left until my dogs arrive at their new home. Been doing so much research and cant wait to start doing some testing of my own.Will give each pup my undivided love attention before moving on to the others. I've made it trough most of this thread and have taken much notes, but...
