I agree but it looks like a fancy spittoon already in use
It looks like that seller has the Peyote Pillar and some other really nice designs for under $50.yea i wish it had some sort of perc in there
EDIT. this looks interesting http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/2014-new-glass-bongs-smoking-water-pipe-with/214724549.html
I think there's a handful of blowers out there that sell their glass to many vendors on the site. In general, each blower does their own models, so if you see 50 vendors with the same glass piece, most likely it was made by the same vendor.
HOWEVER In the past such as the case with the original D020 - once it gained popularity, several knockoffs came about (and I still see several on Dhgate), they looked very similar to the original D020, but the build quality was way worse than the OG, clearly made by a different factory (funny, one chinese company copying the design from another vendor, way to steal your OWN designs for once!)
I haven't heard of any differences like that with the Double Barrel, so it's probably safe to assume it was made at the same factory.
Actually, come to think of it, here's a piece which I've seen at least 4 or 5 different versions:
They all have the same price, and look similar, though the vortex bulge near the mouthpiece changes shape - sometimes I see them smaller and more round, sometimes I see them long like this one. Also the recycler output is sometimes on the bottom of the rig, and sometimes raised up slightly like this one.
Here's a VERY similar piece, with a different perc - they could have been made at the same factory, but the pictures and build quality are different enough that one could have been a copy from the other
Pillar recycler is kind of defeatist. The entire point of the pillar section is that the bubbles will always take the path of least resistance. The air does not go up all the tubes at once but kind of randomly switches and the water drops back down through other ones. Therefore it is internally recycling.
If you add on a vortex chamber and return then there is no point of making a pillar in the first place.
Just my
glass is all subjective preference so you might love something I hate or vice-versa.
Hey guys - this peice looks so nice. There is so much posting going on here-is this the mighty 187 that everyone write about? Im waiting on that DO20-D to arrive. Who knows do nice padded pouches that can be ordered to protect your glass that aren't real expensive. I plan on traveling with my new little solo and this glass bubbler over the holidays and must travel to New Orleans in Jan. I got the soft case for the solo but it's so small that I can't seem to slide her in there. That's ok - I'm using it for the glass stems and will put the adapters in there as well. The bubbler must travel with me - I need the water filtrationJust had to follow up on this discussion since It's still relatively recent, even if we're already 8 pages past this point....
HRglass is yet another vendor with a *similar* looking bubbler which at first glance looks like the same piece, but as you can tell when looking at the others above, it's actually a different design:

. You can never have too many matrix percs, lol.
Confirm.
If a canvas pouch would work you could try messaging some Etsy sellers to see if they'll sew a custom size for you. These are just a couple i found real quick.
I have seen a worked down stem made by @VaPeD&CoNfUsEd that fits inside. That would add some color.
