Very nice looking glass!I said it because in this pic it seems closer, but never had the real one on my hands
I just use the FC 187 for the last 2 weeks.
Nice collection you have!

I strongly agree with this. Stephen's prices are getting higher all the time and there is only a fair chance he will provide a piece that is fully functional imo. I think his pre-orders are disgraceful. He is simply testing the market and funding his manufacturing. The guy is basically getting free designs and consultancy from FC members. Great deal if you are Stephen. Sure the real pieces are much more expensive but I think Stephen is using this as leverage to keep bumping up his prices. Not to mention his shipping is slow, erratic and unreliable imo.Honestly,
his prices have been going up and up and...well...up
I don't know anymore if I would prefer spending close to 100dollar on these rigs...it is hit and miss sometimes, and yeah, when they were 30bucks each that still would not matter. But with these prices if one gets one that is kracked, perc offset or something something then you are stuck with it...I guess I feel more confident then ordering trough a known website, like for instance here in Europe Head and Nature, paying a bit more, sometimes even the same, but knowing someone has quality checked the piece before shipping it out to me.
Just saying, if these chiness vendors want to keep us interested, they have to be really careful with increasing their prices like has been going on for a while now...or get their quality control up a level or two...

@ChiefKeefe I am happy to hear that at least one person on here has hit the real thing. I personally have not but I have hit a real SG peyote pillar. I think it is important that at least one of us has used a design if we are going to get a copy of it. To make sure that it is made right and to get an accurate comparison, like how @Monsoon helped with the diffusion pump. It would not be near as good without him and we would be unable to verify how closely it functions to the real one.
I owned a genuine SG Peyote pillar. They are like nothing else. I would be very surprised if the knock offs get the true function correct.
Yes they will get water to burble up though the pillars. But it's the feel that matters.
And the feel comes from a very precise distance between the peyote perc and the pillars, the diameter of the pillars, the length of the pillars. Etc...
I just don't believe glass blowers who don't smoke, and have never used the genuine article, can capture the feel based on pictures and second hand measurements.
Just my opinion, sure many folks will disagree. But the fact is, you can't know what you don't know. And if you haven't used the genuine article extensively, I guess you may never know the difference anyway.
@Walter Bishop you should pick up the mini pillar and tell me what you think. I know exactly what rumble you are talking about. My buddy had a super nice SG hollow foot peyote pillar and at the time I had definitely never hit anything like it and have not since until the FC-711 was released. I can't imagine that you won't be pleased with its function. I can only speculate how close it is to a real mini pillar but it does have that unique pillar rumble I remember and love
I must have been really vaped, but realize I purchased the fab egg from growhighgrass on dhgate, not ccg. What a mistake!!! Anyway I can switch, but damn, it's been shipped?
Yeah it's a solid valve. I hook it up to rigs with non-toxic vinyl tubing. Here is a post way back from page 271 where I explain how to rig it up

I love my FC-UFO!!
Thanks, that's all folks...
Just placed an order for the FC ufo too. I think it will be my go to vaping piece. I'm hoping it delivers good flavor.I am soooooo stoked about getting mine, on its way...
I like cooling my vapor with water most of the time no matter what vape I'm using.OK so Volcano and glass is a thing? I have a Volcano Classic, which I have not used since I got into butane vapes about half-a-year ago. I am asking because I want to know: why hook Cano up with a bubbler? Does it, well, work? Does it improve the balloon-experience in any way in your opinion?
Got my CCG Fab Egg in.
Well crafted, hits really nicely. Glass could be a bit thicker maybe but overall I am very happy.
