Very, very nice line up and new additions

Thanks, all three of them are awesome. Heights are all similar but I just noticed they happen to be 50mm, 60mm and 75mm which wasn't planned but pretty awesome as well. The GAS won't be complete until I also get the EFS incycler, then it'll be a real line-up.

The Natty neck is at a higher angle than the other two so I'd say it's a bit more comfortable on lower surfaces than the other two with more horizontal angled necks. I like holding the other two in my hand better but they work fine on a table.

I did notice all the standard can sizes were represented :D
Definitely a nice group and the EFS incycler is just going to be the jewel on top.

I want an EFS incycler also. I jumped in the sale, but haven't paid because I decided I want one with
a worked donut (I've drooled over his work donuts forever it seems) and a neck that extends up to 12". So I am gonna have to really save my pennies and pay full base price plus the work/mods.

BUT, thats a little hard to do when I keep feeding my damn GAS:
The Dab Lab has shipped your order!

Ugh, I'm going to have to delete all my glass links.

Or go broke.

I'll post pics when I receive it... but it'll be a week or more probably.
Takes a while to swim that far.

I got to see the "Time Before Land" Glass show in Santa Barbara this last Saturday. This was a solo show put on by Elbo Glass and Fuzion glass gallery showcasing Elbo's 2013 work. I got super lucky and got to scoop this 10mm clear dino. I've wanted a dino since I first laid eyes on them, and the fact I got a clear 10mm makes this a dream piece for me :) Sooo in love with this little guy

I got my package today from Photorider - I will get pics after we unpack from the move but it took me 15 minutes to unwrap it. Such an amazing wrapping job, probably the best I've ever seen.

Thank you @PhotoRider and @fluffhead for such a wonderful gift.

On another note, has anyone else masturbated to this guy's stuff yet...


I have! :brow:

I've shown you guys this piece already but I just learned that my Note 3 has slow motion mode thanks to @Caligula ....

Figured this would best fit here, ladies and gentlemen: Mike D Recycler with Quartz nail and J-Arm adapter.




Next, I received a piece from @PhotoRider contest number 2. It was paid forward by a good friend - @fluffhead thank you....

Anyways, In slow mo to boot. Have to say, this is by far the oddest feeling pull on any piece I've ever used. It took me a little while to get used to it, this thing creates an internal vacuum seal. Too much water and after you pull it flushes like a fucking toilet.

Needs much less water than it looks, but with no further ado....

technically, the drop down is the only new glass in these photos, but that purple heart wood just looks too good not to share :D

Oh btw, if anyone is trying to get ahold of a new D-nail, feel free to PM me. I'm not personally selling any, but...

Also, who else is excited for the EFS black friday incyclers :rockon: (my same friend and roommate just paid for his)

Not the best picture (cell phone) got this at the LHS a few days ago as my new "strictly for vaping" piece. I wanted to stay under the $300 mark and china-free.

Nice!:rockon:

That thing should work nice for vaping- I have found that the amount of water that vapor must travel through before it reaches you has a large bearing on smoothness- and that's plenty of water. Should be smooth:nod:.

Btw, not to play photo critic (cuz i know nothing about photography), but i think the issue in your pic was the lighting. My pics were via phone as well (granted an HTC one, one of the best low-light cameras on a phone according to what I'm told)- so I think changing the lighting should help a bunch. But once again, I don't actually know what I'm talking about:shrug:.

Just trying to help:tup:

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah the lighting in my office is a little crappy and shooting with flash made things worse with the reflections on the glass. I've always preferred having the water level a bit higher than normal maybe thats why, between smoothness and pulling thicker clouds its been a habit I carried over from combustion. I also feel it helps make it easier to clear out the chamber completely without needing to gasp for that last little puff of smoke.

Some people have been saying the chinese glass isn't good. Is there chemicals they use or is it the quality they don't like? Also, Thanks a lot! All my buddies were flabergasted about how much I spent.

China glass is looked down on because the raw glass is inferior to German or American raw Boro tubes, with imperfections in the glass that make it weaker. Also a lot of pieces coming out of China are poorly made, but that seems to be improving recently, or at least with the few gems people are finding in the cheap bubbler thread. As long as you are getting a great price and know you are getting weaker China glass, there is nothing wrong with it. What really gives China glass a bad name is the LHS owners that claim it us American then mark it up 500%

Ok, makes sense! The ones I just got are hefty for sure but like I said, pull great.
