I wonder if the recycler is low enough to not leak out the stem tube when filled.
@stickstones this is alteration of an earlier 'nectar collector' they made that had some flaws, but the function was very good. I would not anticipate any leaking as I had turned mine almost side ways before it leaked from the mouthpiece, not the stem.

Hey guys, I got a lot of PMs in regard to a post I made about cheap American options for worked glass. Almost all low price-range American glass is oil-focused, so mini tubes are what's out there. That said, I think that minitubes can pair very well with vaporizers if you're okay with whips and have the right adapters. I really enjoy holding a very small piece of glass in my hand that acts as a water-cooler more than a bong--and since most minitubes are optimized for dabs, you can take dab-sized hits of vapor in full flavor!
@twistedimageglass on Instagram is my favorite option for cheap glass. You can contact him through there, and he does custom work AMAZINGLY cheap, like so cheap that it's hard to believe. I won't speak to specific prices on that, because it's up to him. But he posts on Reddit with sales often, and the stuff on there is always absurdly low priced for solid-quality American glass:
https://www.reddit.com/r/EntExchange/comments/3zg3mb/mini_tubes_and_a_pendy_rig_made_by_me/
I mean, he has this full-color red elvis piece listed at 100$. Are you kidding me?? Mouthpiece is a bit wonky but this type of glass with those mibs is an easy 300-400 at any LHS I've ever been in.
Anyways, just wanted to share a great "cheap bubbler" option for those who like style and American glass. I believe @Cannabis Connoisseur @Justpassedu were interested specifically
Edit: This one is only 120. Might scoop it this week if no one else does.

Message him about 14mm pieces. He's not very popular yet and has a lot of unsold inventory. Which is too bad because he blows glass wel above his pay grade! For the record, I'm not connected to him professionally or personally. But he's a great guy buy all appearances (super nice when we've spoken on Reddit) and his work/pricing speaks for itself.

Is anyone clued up as to what the taper diameters on the FC-Mod are? Would like to get a whip for mine, but it hasn't arrived yet.... Cheers!

Thanks buddy , i was going to pm you but it seems you gave us all some good info. I sent him a message on reddit , waiting to here back even though i had just ordered my self a new piece the other day.Hey guys, I got a lot of PMs in regard to a post I made about cheap American options for worked glass.

My FTK after about a month of use with the 710 whip... ya think maybe i need a claim catcher?
I wonder how much $$$ is just sitting in there. My guess is $50 worth of oil. I hope you have a good reclaim process.
He makes really pretty pieces and id love to own more, but unfortunately there are some quality issues in my experience. I ordered and received a pendant with an implosion marble that had cracked after one day. I was told by a local glass blower that it was due to the cooling rates of the glasses being different, he admitted this to me and said it was not my fault. I was originally told i could send it back for repair but later i was told not to since it was used (I would have cleaned it before shipping obviously) and he would have to smash it upon receiving it, due to the states laws being strict and not wanting to jeopardize his business, which sort of makes sense. The cracked marble doesnt effect the function of the piece.. it just looks unsightly. What bothered me most was that it didnt seem like he wanted to stand behind his product or make any attempt to make it right.Hey guys, I got a lot of PMs in regard to a post I made about cheap American options for worked glass.

Well, definitely order with caution, then! I'm sorry. I hope he makes it right, he seemed very nice. I really like that pendy rig, hope it's made right. Also, I don't really think anyone gets in trouble for resin-y rigs in the mail so I definitely feel your pain. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's a lame excuse on his part even though I know it is the industry standard. ISO wash is enough for sure.He makes really pretty pieces and id love to own more, but unfortunately there are some quality issues in my experience.

i ordered when he first started selling on reddit, he made his IG shortly after that. I havent contacted him in months and kind of just forgot about it until i saw you post some of his work. No hope of it being made right, but i agree it seemed like a lame excuse.
Soak in ISO, rinse repeat until clean.

Heat up some Everclear, dump it in, i will dissolve the oil on contact, evaporate the Everclear.. RECLAIM!
This...although it does take longer than you would think to dissolve

I used warm 151 (heated bottle under hot sink) before i got a dropdown as i use Cranberry Extract. it a pain to get off of the tube, its also a pain to pick your ass up off the floor when you have a whole shot. Ill bet you still have 1000mg+ in that tube, if you get that to break down, it will fuck up 10 average tolerance people uncomfortably. (lol i eat 200mg hifi bars all the time, but others are very sensitive) If i did it again, I would mix it into a large jungle juice type of thing and warn a cannabis patient party taht it was dosed lol. The taste of the 151 is far worse than the reclaim.

I did, Fucked me up hard core. not sure if it works with all oil, but def CO2. just vodka wont work, you will need 151 or everclear. With out some sort of abrasive (rock sugar might work) its a total pain to get CLEAN, but you can get a lot of the oil out and disollved. you are going to want to fully clean the pipe after trying any of these shenanygains. sugar (yes alcohol) can leave behind some nasty shit to grow nastier shit inside your bong water.
you all have my warning though, if you dont know how much thc you are eating, and you dont know your tollerence, i cant really recomend this. i saw this hilarious meme the other day it said:
All stories about edible marijuana are the same -
1. i cant feel it
2. i cant feel it
3. i cant feel it
4.drive me to the hospital
haha its never killed anyone, but if you wig, you might think you are.
I guess you could just eat the reclaim but the mouth feel and taste would be nastay.
i would use about 1/2 cup of 151 in a bong that size. 1/2 cup of 151 is strong shit, but the THC would be the star player in knocking you on your ass. you will get a little drunk from a shot of anything, more so with 151, but an hour later you will be praying to god if you have too much THC. alcohol convinces you to do dumbshit, like drink more of it. 151 will send you to the hospital, and can kill you. just be careful and err on extreme caution. peeps in norcal often complain about doses over 25mg believe it or not. CO has a 5mg limit, meaning there could be over 200 co legal edibles floating in that 1000mg of thc floating in there. #WatchYoSelf #Fuckaroundgetbesideyourself no shit, we were drinking the stuff out of a cocacola bottle cap. it can be that strong easily. I eat a LOT of mj (most theraputic for me) my tollerence is VERY high. any edible that gets me is for sure strong, thats why i am warning multiple times, dont wanna see u have a bad night (bet you wake up feeling like a milion buck even if oyu do wig though hahaha)

OK, I know I have posted about this little cheap Chinese rig from Glass Artist before, but my girlfriend just surprised me with a weekend cabin in the woods and told me to pack my travel enail and rig! I forgot how much I like this little banger hanger. I ordered it when I was looking for a rig to fit in this Pelican case Travel enail. Thios at 7.4" is a perfect fit. Perfect with the 16mm Liger V2.0 too. It's definitely worth the purchase if you need a 14mm female banger hanger.

Personally what I would do it just heat up the glass on the stem a little and then use hemp fiber or some clean organic cotton to wipe it up. You can then throw that into a vape and get some good hits...no everclear needed. You could probably get most of the oil out that way. I'd just dump the rest and PBW clean it. Everclear is too much work and $$$.
13.99 every couple of months is worth it to me for clean glass, even without reclaim.
Not much of a drinker, so I will evaporate and dab it most likely. I have tried to make edibles, but have yet to really feel them. That will be my mission this April in Denver, to feel edibles

How durable is that joint? I love the piece but I'm worried it would crack right off at the slightest bump

Unapproved commercial account.
Hi there, this is the artist who made the piece you are talking about and a few folks mentioned this thread to me today so I just wanted to chime in - I'll start by saying thank you for buying something from me and I apologize you still have to deal with a cracked piece. I started blowing glass late in 2013 and I think this piece was my first or second pendy rig I ever made, made within my first year (?) and I've never defended things I didn't do right. It was my ignorant choice of color that caused the problem to begin with - I've since learned it is very prone to cracking in deep encasement so I rarely even use it anymore. I still consider myself a beginner who has something to learn from anyone else working behind a torch but I'm getting better every day!
The reason I'm posting is because I disagree with how you said I handled the issue. I wanted to get that cleared up and hopefully still resolve your issue, if you want it resolved. It's very hard to search for messages that are this old on reddit so I'm doing this from memory...
My state only decriminalized paraphernalia about a month ago so I've always been VERY cautious about repairs coming back. I live less than 30 miles from DC, attention is paid to the mail around here. I tell people that they need to be absolutely spotless because if something goes wrong BOTH of our addresses are on the box and we BOTH could get in trouble. Plus, repairing a dirty piece is a stinky pain to deal with in any state.
Many glassblowers will charge a cleaning fee if something comes back dirty and I've never done that so I would certainly never smash something AFTER it has arrived here safely... what would be the point???
I offered several options (again, correct me if I'm wrong here - it's been a while)...
The option to clean it and return it for a full refund
...or clean it and return it for repair (with all expenses paid by me)
...or, because it was cosmetic only and didn't impact the function of the piece I also offered that you could keep it as-is for a partial refund
...or if you just didn't want to deal with the hassle of returning it and just wanted your money back you could smash it and send me a photo for a full refund.
I still feel that those options are fair and they are still all available to you but like you mentioned above - you never got back to me to let me know how you want to proceed.
I've had more sales on /EntExchange than any other Reddit user and can count on one hand the number of refunds I've had to give - or repairs I've had to do for things that were my fault but I always stand by my work and have always made it right. I feel comfortable saying I've got the sales history on reddit, and now growing on facebook, to confirm that.
Sorry for the long-winded message but I hope this addresses your concerns that I DO stand by my work and I DID attempt to make it right - and those offers still stand today so again, I apologize for the trouble and if you are interested please contact me on Instagram because I probably won't check this account as often and want to make sure I get back to you ASAP.
I hope this addresses your concerns that I DO stand behind my work and DID try to make it right - and still will, if you are interested.
