Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Frederick McGuire

Aggressively Loungey
Just got my FC-cake and straight fab in from steven.

Haven't tried them out yet, but they look good :brow:

Here's my package today from steven.
It fairly represents the quality of all the packages I've received from him, and IMO everything was packed reasonably well :)

I'd be interested to know if the others with issues with shipping quality have received packages in the same state but want better, or if mine is an example of his better shipping practices?

There was a layer of bubble wrap/paper on the top and bottom, and each piece was wrapped with 2 layers of small bubble wrap, and 1 layer of large bubble wrap.

The cone-pieces were just in a little bubble wrap bag loosely in the package, they survived but I don't care about them :lol:
Sometimes kathy will wrap those accessories inside one of the layers of bubble wrap around the piece, sometimes it's like this and loose :)

So did anyone here actually order the doughnut klein from CCG?
I'm pretty interested in it. I'm either gonna order that or the newer eggs with the color on the inside ball.

The blue one reminds me of the droids in Star Wars for some reason... I cant see it right away, but I can't get the image out of my head either. It's like the inside entire blue part is the droid, and the clear part of the egg is it's charging station. It flies out after an hr or two, it's antennas extend, and it floats away to spy on some jedi somewhere or whatever droids do in their spare time... :shrug: All the holes look like it's cameras and lenses, the horizontal space between the drains the spacer between the top and bottom half, and the joint is where the antennae pulls into and extends from. I think it's because of the way the color has a sort of lip to it, it isn't a perfect ball of color, the color extends out far into the clear.

The doughnut klein looks pretty sweet too. I'd be more interested in just a classic pear shaped klein though. The doughnuts seem to be just for looks, the bubbles don't seem to do to much throughout them. and I'd really like see some joint support on that thing...
That looks fragile as hell.
I'd honestly be surprised if it showed up in one piece. Very surprised, which is why I haven't ordered it yet.
Apparently some people ordered a couple though.
Was that anyone here?
I'm eagerly awaiting a review on it.

Got a message from Steven,he will replace FC1000. He says they will ship on 06/12/15,he remarked they were a bad batch. FWIW you may want to hit him up if you any issues with one now while he has a new batch coming out.Lets just hope he does what he says and makes good. I thought a few times he told others the same and they waited for infinite amount of time and ended up having to buy another with a discounted price....BS right there,I hope he doesnt pull that.Only time will tell. Glad some are recv'n rigs in great shape.I have to admit, my FC 1000 came double boxed with 2 thick heavy boxes and yards of bubble wrap, looked good!!

Still have a couple around here somewhere that have never been out of the bubble wrap.
That's because you don't have an LSV :lol: Every M2M from china has a different diameter opening on the male end. That makes it a bitch to find the 'perfect' size to fit the ELB or EQ screens. I have 3 different M2Ms, and only 2 ends between the three of them fit my ELB screens, and only 1 fit's the EQ screen properly.


So did anyone here actually order the doughnut klein from CCG?
I would if it had an 18mm female piece. Instead I think I'm going to show that design to an american glassblower and tell him I want something *similar* with a bit of color added in. Sure I'll pay 5x more, but at this point I've gotten bored of Chinese vendors and their low QC (and they seem to mostly make pieces with male fittings these days).

Anyone got any thoughts on this? Looks like a lil bitty straight fab, little pricey and :| customer service %, but could be small enough for a decent travel fab

NOTE: seller is kathy0578, not kathy0577, the latter of whom I believe many members have previously dealt with successfully

Now that looked interesting but suspicious. Tried to do a google image search, can't find any results from name brands....

Good news!! I'll have to message him when I'm back in town and can take some pics. Im assuming you had to send him some pics right? If not I'll send a message today.

On the one hand; no name brands means they didn't steal the pic from somewhere

On the other hand; we've seen that a lot of these vendors don't actually partake, so how good will an original design be?

Exactly.
It reminds me of the video Steven made of the mini pillar, he was hitting it with a cigarette shoved in the joint.

I was really into that piece but it looks like it might splash you a lot. That little perc might actually bubble quite a bit, and that MP doesn't look to good when it comes to preventing splash. It's smaller volume might be awesome though...

What about this thing?

A bunch of sellers have them apparently, but none have a good enough picture to figure out how they work, or if they work. Are these copies of anything?
This looks decent then too..

So my buddy just ordered 1 fab egg from clean and clear glass. They sent him 1 on Saturday and then he recieved a second one today. He was only charged for the one he ordered but was sent 2. Both packages show the same tracking number and date lol. Has this happened to anyone else?

Yeah I did, mine keeps getting progressively worse, the floor where the pillars are welded is cracked sort of like a Mercedes emblem which also leads to the perc which also circles around almost 360. I'm hoping he makes good and doesnt send out something worse or completely different. We shall see, Like I said I'd be really pissed if I spent the 250-300 I see the LHS selling this rig for!!!! I wonder some times if we dont get the rejects and the high quantity sales people get the better grade? If customers come back to head shops with multiple complaints of pipes just self destructing as we have seen, how long is he going to be able to have a decent reputation to keep his glass sales going? It is slowly destroying itself,and is no longer operational:( leaking from multiple spots:disgust:

Got my FC-1000 in record time...ordered on the 20th and it was delivered yesterday. I had asked Steven if I could get a honey bucket instead of a flower bowl and he agreed to it. :)

Only issue is there is a small crack in one of the pillars. It functions so I am ok with it but I told him if it grows or quits functioning here over the course of the next couple of weeks that I will expect a replacement.

We'll see how it goes.

I have the first, more complicated looking piece in the middle. It's constructed super well, the neck is super thick! I was amazed. It pulls an awesome cyclone with a super slow drain. Holding one, it seems very thick and expensive. They are often $89 from china, but if you can get one on sale I highly recommend it!

Can you post more detailed pics? I can't be the only one totally perplexed by the backlit photos from only one angle. Or a vid, better yet...

Which would you recommend for the Evo and Solo? Which one has less flavor and is smoother?

I'm looking into recyclers but I'm pretty sure the fact that you don't inhale as fast will just kill the vortex/recycling effect, and that's if I'm lucky enough to get a working recycler from them...

I Got one yesterday and the other today. I guess I'd say the Straight Egg considering the Solo. But not so much its like what do you want. The Big Egg is just as likely to pair perfectly with the Solo. The slightest pull rips both of them and clears both of them without effort
