Cheap High Quality Bubbler

strongly disagree. I've paired my Solo (and keep in mind it's one of the more restrictive vapes) with larger bongs and successfully. For instance with a black leaf double honeycomb perc bong, about 12" as well. Not as easy a pull as say the D020-D of course, but way bigger, lung busting hits. Honeycomb percs are apparently one of the most draggy too, and this is two of them.

New DHGate glass such as the FC-1000/FC-707 from steven are examples of larger bongs which several members on here say are great to vape through as well... again, even with the Solo.

About a week ago I received 3/4 of my DHgate order from Steven. I got a FC-Cake, a FC-Torus, and a replica Starbucks bubbler (III generation Head hammer perc), still waiting for my FC-UFO to ship.

I have not gotten to use the starbucks cup because it has a 14mm male joint on the top, which I don't have an adapter for. It was a gift for my girlfriend so I'm not in a huge rush to test it, but will eventually have to order an adapter so we can give it a shot.

The FC-Cake I am really loving. With its neck offset to the side I am better able to see when I milk the bubbler and it works great.

The FC-Torus makes a cool vortex, but I'm don't like how difficult it is for me to see how much vapor I'm producing. I also have troubles seeing the vortex because I can't see it while using the bubbler. It has alot more resistance and is definitely very chuggy, so I'm not sure that it'll beat my D020 or the Cake.

I'm also starting to get a little antsy for the FC-UFO. I ordered it on the 4th and it still hasn't shipped. Steven said he would tell me when its ready and ships, but it really seems like it there should be some progress by now.

Has anyone else ordered a UFO since the 4th? I'm curious to see if others are in the same limbo I'm in.

VP you should have waited for Stevens updated torus. Unless u bought it before the new perc announcement. Should be less chuggy. Instead of big holes in the perc they're slits now. I'm just waiting for it to be posted n I'm grabbing that for sure.

Actually you ordered twin like the rest of us I'm guessing. The other torus is what I was talking about. Anyway the new one hopefully functions better. As far as seeing the vapor idk bro lol a mirror maybe?:shrug:

The UFO will be worth the wait! It's so simple and provides great flavor. Hopefully you get it soon.

I'm waiting for that damn straight fab to ship. Has anyone had theirs shipped yet?

I am waiting on a shipping notice on the UFO as well. I hadn't ordered DHgate glass in a while and found a certain SOMEONE possibly still gives out fake tracking numbers? I hope not. Damn these people being so safe from me in China.
I did however, order a GB-187 after I broke my daily driver.

Keep in mind once they create a shipping label it's considered shipped. Once they actually physically drop it off or it gets picked up by their mail service and entered into the system that's when the tracking will update.

I have some quality issues with mine. The base is not level and rocks. When pushing down on one side, I just fit a credit card in the space. Its not that bad but its annoys me.
...............................................................

I have a hydratube base/holder that's like this, not level and it rocks.
I was thinking of trying to fix it, something like getting a mousepad and cutting to shape/ trim a thin slice off or add a little slice where needed and glue it on.
It is a nuisance and should have been caught thru basic quality control.
Anyone ever try this or have any other ideas on how to fix?

I ordered one with two other pieces the FC-711 shipped immediately then just a couple days ago my FC-186 and UFO shipped. Though now you guys have me a bit worried. Why did mine ship when others are waiting? :shrug: Will keep ya posted!

But if I take my rig from kathy cleaned, and my new american minitube cleaned, and take one dab out of both, the minitube will have no trace of a dab. The rig from kathy has claim right away.
I'm not talking floating claim from a disgusting rig. I'm talking you just cleaned your rig, but floating claim forms in little specks on the water surface after 3-5 dabs. Then it starts to collect on the worked section of the downstem, then a spot where bubble sit stagnant. Then I clean it. It's mostly perc form as weenstoned said, but theres something else or else to it at least that claim would stick right away in the minitube.
Alright so I've been testing it out, I've done about 3.5 dabs (1 shitty dab) in my kathy and it's still clean... I tried to look everywhere, every tiny little corner, it's all clean man. I do use a quartz banger, but I have no idea if that is what is causing your kathy to instantly claim up like that... really strange man.

I was so tempted just to go back to american glass to actually compare this, but I couldn't even find a decent ONE perc rig for under $200... They were pretty bad before, but smoke shops are a fucking joke now.

I would think that the American blowers might drop their prices a little to get some of the china glass customers, but that doesn't really seem to be happening. Maybe over a little more time...

Keep in mind that the whole glass customer base is NOT concentrating on china glass quite as much as we are here. We are into this as a group, and not everyone reads FC. Many buyer either don't know that china glass even exists, or don't know that the glass they are buying at the LHS is china glass.

An American Lampworker I know was very interested in the idea of "reverse engineering" DHgate glass to offer cheap American made versions after I showed her my Cmeng Cheap Fab Egg. I'm sure she's not the only one.

That would be kinda funny to see it going in that direction. Anything to make special glass accessible I say...

I don't really see any reverse engineering being involved. American glass blowers just need to decide to set their prices lower. Once anyone blows an egg they automatically price it at over $500.

I've heard larger pieces are not great for running vapes through, is this true? What would be a taller alternative to my current D020-D. I would like something that would be level with my mouth at my desk instead of me having to hunch down since the D020-D is so short.
Be careful what size bong you buy if you intend to use with vapes. I've got a Weedstar Big Bang which is about 30cm tall, and while its great for combustion, its horrible to use with vapes.....feels like you are sucking a golf ball through a straw.

Definitely stick with smaller bongs for vapes, I learned the expensive way.
I feel a large part of this is the vape you use due to differing restriction, and extraction abilities. Something like an EVO or herbie will have no problem milking up a large volume piece, with minimal drag. Whereas with a solo, you may have some hard drag with multiple honeycombs, and large volume pieces.

I'm considering to get a faberge egg. Most users here seem to be very happy with the one from cnmengglass. There is also some other nice one that I'm interested in:

It has less holes than most other eggs, but I really like the simple and clean design.
Currently available for $45 (without accessories).

Does anyone already have it? Maybe from some other seller? I couldn't find anything yet.
