I said in my OP about the ruby mod, at worst it is NOVA in easy mode. My brick fu has never been great. I certainly can’t clear bowls in one hit, nor would I want to. I see no reason for rubies if your use case relies on open, ruby free airflow and the same torch technique you would use...

It is a large bowl best used for small to mid loads. A full bowl will burn most easily and could ruin more product. .075 - .2 is the most I typically seem to load. Eyeballing here. The bowl is shaped very much like a ball vape shovelhead bowl, and like a shovelhead, it works best when filled no...

Excellent! It is really stunning how much the vape signature changes. Like, you go in expecting the old reliable NOVA high and it delivers something quite different, but also quite rewarding and full spectrum. It is like hitting a completely different vape and getting that different high that...

Dang these are pretty.

What a collection you have! Amazing glass pieces.

I hope you do. Weed is hard to test because of the mind altering properties so it would be nice to apply some scientific method to this and see if folks can replicate my early findings.

As I continue testing the NOVA I came across something I feel is quite special. Lee over at Tabletop Bong posted a YouTube video about adding balls to his Sticky Brick and I just so happened to have some extra 3mm rubies lying around. After some experimenting I found 10 to be the magic number...

I run 450-500 for session vaping temps. 400 works but is just a bit too thin for me.

Update: I now have the diffuser in the bowl configuration. Works with my single and quad torch. I have taken off the training wheels and I am now using it like a pro. Just needed to figure it out. Also just bought a new 9” augmented stem and a Top Shelf NOVA because… VAS. Thanks all for your...

Today has been great. Now I am trying my quad torch and it is working wonders. It did all finally click and now I can use this like I always imagined. And I am thinking of ordering a longer, augmented stem.

Thanks! I am using small to medium torches. Single torch. Pretty much more direct heat than not. Never got a multi flame torch working with this in any way I enjoyed in spite of the demo videos. Again, I am not using a kitchen torch. In fact, the Vapman torches have a remarkably small...

Yes. A medium one that I got in a smoke shop. No name brand. Works pretty well with the dome now. Combusted a lot with the shield in the bowl configuration. Much better now. And a lot of small Vapman torches. Hardly did anything (or combusted) until I flipped the shield to dome shape. Now they...

I went dome after a year of excitement with it down like a bowl… which I am pretty sure is how it comes. For whatever reasons, the way I want to torch it, and with my particular torch, I either got too much or nothing at all when it was like a bowl. Combusting frequently. So it became a...

I have had mine for about a year and never really got the hang of it. Yesterday flipped the diffuser shield upside down and suddenly it works the way I imagined. Went from being on my display shelf to getting regular use.

Yup. Same. And thanks for being my guinea pig and testing the Zirc and Omega for me! 😂 I doubt I need a cordless head. I really like setting the Zeal on the shovelhead at low temps and having a nice session. I don’t think a cordless head will do my favorite party trick as well. But that...

Wow. Zeal mania is spreading to Reddit. The Vaporents sub has been clinically diagnosed with Zeal fever. Word of mouth is spreading and this kit is taking off!

If you run it up to 1000 it turns kinda blue and there’s little bits of polish that burn off and others that remain. It leaves a patina. Loses its shine. Needs another polish. But it looks brutal. Works for my setup. I think silver or gold were the best shiny looks.

Nice find!

I believe the coiled attys run in titanium mode or within certain TCR parameters, while the nails and Terra's are Nickle coated in ceramic. I may be wrong there. Also, don't expect to get perfect temp readings if a donut and nail have to be heated by a wire, that is a bit art and a bit science.

That looks far better. In the orbs it was almost impossible to screw them on without first taking off the top to be sure it didn't get screwed down in the process. If the bucket sits better too, even better.
