Cheap High Quality Bubbler

ataxian

PALE BLUE DOT






YQ-42 came in yesterday. I'm really liking it and have dabbed and combusted through it. However I am having a hell of a time with the water levels. I can get the matrix to perc beautifully but can never seem to get the honey comb right. Any suggestions?

Still waiting on the ashcatcher from kathy. It's been in limbo from San Francisco since the 20th, a little longer than Sunshine but I imagine it'll show up tomorrow. I'm going to wait to put my "review" in the dhglass thread.
Take it for whats its worth:

The bottom chamber level looks good to me!

The Top chamber looks a bit high?
115%

Try 75% then add until you find your sweet spot.

Some of my water rigs work best with water level low side of the perc line.

My take?

Thanks @Ratchett for the heads up on the new seller. They have some promising looking pieces. I like these two.

I bought
http://www.dhgate.com/product/new-come-glass-ash-catch-with-honey-comb/194447697.html
(thanks @ataxian ) with this adapter to interface with a http://www.dhgate.com/product/pinnacle-pro-glass-smoking-water-pipe-vaporblunt/184494946.html.

It would be nice if I could find one of those adapters with a slight (30-45 degree) angle for ergonomics and not to much to affect the function of the hydro tube.

I'm planning on making a function video when my kathy stuff gets here.

For fun I also picked up 10 of these for $20 (w/color requests). For when I'm stoned. See it's relevant.

The item "no longer exists" so here's a similar link.
I like this ash catcher a lot.
Their are so many configurations!
I ordered more adapters!
Thank you for the link!

Does anyone have a recent tracking number they can share?


Basically I am extremely impatient and obsessive. I have been checking the USPS tracking number since I got it. My package has left Chicago at 2am Monday morning and I have since gotten no updates. I'm annoying loved ones with how often I check the tracking info.

@comeatmebro have you tried your tracking number on the USPS website? If it's in the States already, it may take some time to clear customs. You should have it tomorrow or Friday at the latest. IMO.

Yeah. I have been using the USPS tracking site. It landed in Chicago the 20th and left at 2am the 22nd with no updates since. I'm really hoping to have it this weekend. The suspense is killing me.

Where did you order from? My orders from Sunshine Store were ~3 days from departing stateside San Francisco to my home. My current order from kathy has been taking quite a bit longer it's been about ~5 days stateside but it's in Denver so it should be delivered tomorrow. I take it this is your first order? The anxiousness sucks with the 1st one lol the 2nd and 3rd order I didn't really care at all. My experience has been about ~9 days overall from Sunshine Store on both my orders. My order from kathy will be 13 days if it does show up tomorrow.

Sunshine is definitely the better store IMO but their selection is a little more limited. I'm going to give yingmin a shot at some point here but I'll always try to go through Sunshine first. Kathy didn't have much that really caught my eye anyways but I remember seeing a few things from ying.

I finally unboxed my 2nd D022 - must be an improved downstem or the two percs are farther apart, because it certainly seemed to hit nicer than the D022 I already have.

However sadly I let it tip over when unpacking things from my car, and only got one use out of it before i broke it :(

My first D022 is still going strong, my kathy recycler survived the tip, and looks like i'll be grabbing maybe two more D022s soon......

Sorry for your loss man! I've been loving my D022. I think my piece has a longer stem than the originals. It took me a while to pull the trigger on one because the perc looked so high in the can (I ended up getting one after @ataxian wouldn't shut up about them ;).) but when I got it in my hands the stem looked longer than in the pictures. I heard there was only 100 new units made?

If I recall correctly someone asked sunshine store to make back up stems for them and for them to be an inch longer. Maybe they took this advice on board when making the newies? Either way @sunshinestore please make replacement stems!!

The D022 is the most misunderstood piece!
I use the D020 with a SOLO during the day the most!
This morning I setup the D022 with a SOLO normally I use a NANO with the D022.
D020 many rips (sips)
D022 fewer rips (heavies)

I will have @VaPeD&CoNfUsEd make me a 7/8" longer down stem. (Heady style)!
Plus i will order a back up D022 like @exit

Alright sorry being so late getting this up. I have received my D020-D from sunshinestore and my "Phallic bubbler" from kathy.


My D020-D does not have flame polished slits, but it draws much better than the D020. Love this piece with the nano.

The Phallic bubbler is weird but I am falling in love with it. I provides much smoother and larger hits than the D020-D. Also i am using the absolute minimum amount of water in it as if you add what seems like a 'right' amount it will perc into the mouthpiece.

Does anyone have a recent tracking number they can share?

Mine came in 8 days one of those being customs day in chicago. My updates were 3-4 days late.

They all hit pretty similar and I don't like to use a dirty piece after just one session, so I usually just grab one that is clean. Then once I have 3 or 4 dirty pieces I clean them all at once, dumping the Mean Green from one bubbler to the next.

I do like the GB-187 now that I've removed the label, but I don't think it is worth the extra $$$ over the D-020-D. IMO, the GB-187 feels thinner, despite being much taller they weigh about the same, only 17g difference.

I just got an update this morning. It arrived at a nearby city this morning. Its possible to make it tomorrow. I would love to have it this weekend but it is moving super slow. I hope it goes to my local post office next for delivery tomorrow.
