in the mean time, (while you are waiting for your corks) you can either roll a fatty joint, or roll a joint with individual loads, twisted in between like sausage links... i did this for a concert and it worked great... first off, the sausage link works fantastic in the dark when its hard to see how much is going in the bowl, just tear off the end and roll it a little between your fingers and it comes right out... and with the individual twisted sections, you dont get any wasted herb spilling out and it a perfect size load for the bowl since its pre measured... also, lately ive been doing all my loading into the bottom section, (pin side) you have to clean it with a pin afterwards because the herb gets stuck around the bottom nut section on the removable pin, but other than that, i find its finishing a bowl in roughly 10 min with good vapor and easier draws.... also, i was wondering, since the iolite folks also make industrial tools, ie. soldering irons, etc., is there the possibility the size of the pin could be interchanged with a solder iron tip? what im thinking is hammering one out to create more surface area, (ideally like a 4 bladed broadhead arrow, but if nothing else, at least flat) and i figure it would contact more material that way, which would in turn create more vapor, that is, if the thermostat is hooked to the pin, insuring its temp...willieR, when you took it apart, did you see what the thermostat was hooked up to?
I am not sure where to buy the darn corks. If only I had a whino friend...
