Hi guys, first post. I broke my oil rig, started researching and found myself here. The DHglass deals are pretty awesome and I welcome the change from my overpriced local head shop.

The knock off fab eggs look awesome to me, I see that there is a ton of different retailers carrying them, but it seems everyone is going with Kathy or Cleanclearglass? The one from Clean clear glass looks much better to me, however it seems like Kathys has sold a lot more. What would be your opinion on these eggs? I see Kathy also has a new June 2015 model that looks similar to the Cleanclearglass egg, anyone have any thoughts on this? There's no reviews yet. Here it is http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/2015-june-new-glass-bong-fab-egg-bongs-original/243521660.html

I'm also interested in a recycler, this one from cleanclear glass looks like the best functioning one Ive seen so far on here. http://www.dhgate.com/product/8-7-i...rtex-recycler/216222776.html#cart_view-2-null

Any other recycler recommended by you guys for oil?

I saw the FC-187, mobius matrix sidecar, I really liked that one too, but for the price I think I wanna go with the egg or recycler, seems like better bang for buck. Agreed?

I have both the clean clear glass fab egg and recycler in my cart right now, I'll be getting both unless you guys got better suggestions to substitute them with.

Well, I guess disregard my last post, I couldn't wait and pulled the trigger on the CleanClearGlass fab egg and recycler. These are the two original links with all the good reviews.

Fab Egg: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/2015-new-glass-faberge-egg-water-pipes-glass/233845598.html W/ ceramic nail $60.23

Recycler: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/8-7-inch-glass-recycler-amazing-vortex-recycler/216222776.html W/ glass dome $46.46

But I found them listed for 5% off as well and ordered those to offset the price of the ceramic nail.

Fab Egg: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/2015-new-glass-faberge-egg-fab-egg-water/234248064.html W/ ceramic nail $57.22 with 5% off

Recycler: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/two-use-recycler-glass-bongs-with-round-inliner/212271486.html W/ ceramic nail 45.34 with 5% off, cheaper than the glass dome one.

These 5% off ones are not gonna be from some different batch right? They look the same.
They had the fab egg for 10% off on another link but it was the rainbow bright colored ones, and even though they had a clear version, I didnt wanna risk it being from a different batch.

Colored Fab Egg: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/9-inch-mothership-faberge-egg-water-pipes/235718669.html

I would still like your guys feedback on alternatives to the fab egg and recycler though, at these prices I will be buying again soon.

I managed to find it for $49. Much better deal. I'm thinking I'll go ahead and order it but I wonder if it's painted on or if the color was blown in?

$20 off $329 purchase or $8 off a $200 purchase lol


edit. something relevant.

ordered 2 dabaccinos from atomizer88 for $10 each a couple months ago. received them and completed order without fully inspected one of them. about a month later realized it was unusable, hole in joint, mouthpiece sealed closed), contacted atomizer88 with photos and video. they asked if replacement could be sent with next order, i told them they didn't have anything else i wanted, they mailed out replacement. received and it's in perfect shape.

tl;dr atomizer88 goes on my list of trusted sellers

None taken! I'm curious what sucks so much to your eye, though. Is it general proportions/aesthetics, or do you think there may be a functional issue with those changes? Or am I missing something else entirely?
1) making the piece smaller sucks
2) angling the mouthpiece sucks
3) shortening the pillars sucks
4) Lastly if nothing else the worst part making that can at the top so large just to remain empty for vapor to condensate on the glass

Well, my UFO v2 came in from Steven. Perfect condition. No replacement for my first 80 dollar piece from months ago (it was a shitty design anyway). But the packaging was really good and it basically kicks ass with the enano and Joda adapter. Can't complain about that. Really nice piece. Not sure if I should press on him about that or just move on. I think I have enough glass that I can hold out for custom local work at this point... (hahaha we'll see about that)

But above all, its good to know that the shipping and packaging was reliable. Pretty flawless transaction.

I watched the video. How many times would the vapor contact water and are there any diffusion slits at all?
No slits.

It's basically kinda a natural perc up the inner up stem bit.
i have yet to receive an answer on the purpose of this perc
Purpose?
"A bit more than super low diffusion, with a very small amount of dry surface area for reclaim to form on."
Would be my rough description of it...

For me it definitely smooths out dabs more than my tiny rigs with a natural perc or a 1-2 hole/slit Diffy...
I guess it's because the pillar effect of the upstem allows more water contact time or something?

It retains flavour really well.

All that water volume means the water doesn't go stale for a longer time.

The effective volume (basically just the downstem and the area of the can/neck that doesn't hold water) of the piece is actually quite tiny.

It is one of my favourite pieces for dabs, and I generally prefer the maximum amount of diffusion possible (I used my LSV today in a setup involving a hydra base and 3 hydratubes stacked :D)

Nothing like stacking tubes for MEGA HITS!! My GBD Fritter is always the middle piece!!

Asked if my replacement FC-1000 would be an updated version, and Jane provided me with measurements for the revised one. (Still unclear which version I will be receiving)

I know the general consensus was against these changes, but I'm struggling to understand why. I think the shortened pillars will fire easier and the larger upper can should help mitigate splashback.

Thoughts?

That is awful! Makes me very glad I got the FC-1000 when I did.

Its almost been a month since I got it and it has become my daily driver. It reminds me a lot of the M&M Tech Lattice bubbler actually and that was my daily driver for a long time so it makes sense. I love the largeness of it...I can just lean in and take a hit with it sitting on my desk. It takes a little bit of a pull to get it started but once you are drawing it is effortless. With its size and heavy diffusion this thing is a beast for vaping flower. By far my favorite Chinese piece. I was considering ordering another just to have as a backup...I guess not now.
 
So I picked up a d020-d from SSS a while ago. My main issues with it is:
(a) glass nail dumps my oil
(b) tough to rig a pen up to it without using a wick or rubber/silicone seals

To combat the first issue, I figured I'd replace the nail. The top of the invluded nail is shaped poorly, and basically funnels my oil out a spout. I end up getting no vapor in my hit and having beautiful golden concentrate all over the inside of my rig. Should I get a nail for the included dome and adapter, or go domeless? Is the advantage to domeless the ability to carb cap? Are DHgate nails worth exploring?

I dunno, I took a long hard look at the FC-710... it just looks so simple, so cheap. I wish they would put that perc design in a better looking rig. I guess after the fab egg and recycler I will go with the matrix sidecar and that 710... hopefully I like it.

The b020 and b020 d I think they were called looked legit too.

Pretty cool. Anyone got a milk vid of the CCG torus with a banger or bucket or some sort of nail or enail? Thanks

For a prototype this thing is done really well. The mouthpiece could be a smaller diameter and there needs to be joint support.


Count me in for one of these! Like you said the mouthpiece diameter looks to be a little to big but other than that it looks great for a proto. If I were to add my 2 cents I think the mouthpiece needs to have a little more lean to it as well...Also, Im sure he will add a joint support , but do you know if he is going to try to copy mobius new joint support design?

You know, I am waiting for my FC 1000 and am not bothered at all if I get the original or the v2. The changes look pretty minor and until someone has tried one we can't really tell if it is better or worse. (IMO).

The only thing I would change (possibly) is to have a nice thick neck add a couple of pinches to the neck, so you can add ice if you want for additional cooling.
