So over my time here in the last nearly 2 years now (OMG has it been that long?!) I've probably bought around 25 pieces for myself and the current two in my rotation are the FC-710 and that little 4" thick glass bubbler piece with the holes in it that everyone likes. There's maybe another 3-4 that I use semi-regularly but the rest mostly sit around waiting to be sold or given away to a local. [No plans to sell them here so don't ask] At least 5 of them have poor function for various reasons and will probably just be tossed. A few were more for vape use which I seldom do anymore and I've switched to proper low temp dabbing so short vapor path tools are best to retain flavour. I may actually try getting the BatesXWormXGrav Diffusion Pump since I like the design better than the original and it's more similar to the FC-710 but with hopefully better workmanship (mine came with a crack in the tube though it's still intact). I can get that one for $190CAN which seems reasonable.
I'm also still checking the thread and keeping my eye out for gems though, China keeps surprising me at what they can put out. I remember 1.5 years ago fab eggs were considered too hard to make for less than $100 and then they blew straight past that to some much more intricate stuff pretty damn quickly. Some of them even work well. But barring something cool to my liking I think my GAS tank is on low for now after trying ALL THE BONGS! But I know what I like now a lot better and I have some quality pieces so I can afford to be a lot more picky with new stuff now.
Oh and in case people were wondering, last I heard was that @blankrider , who really got the ball rolling on the custom glass front here and is why the FC-710 exists in the first place, had gotten into custom spinning glass tops and is no doubt terrorizing people on whatever forums they have for that sort of thing
