I tore off some of the qtip so that it fit through without much resistance... the crack is from the reaction of ISO with the plastic of the stem.

Glass stems fit the best. The acrylic stems ned to be cleaned with a q-tip (remove some cotton)
The LB instructions warn that you must rinse well with water, or acrylic can crack or become dull.

my acrylic stem cracked too, I cleaned it with an iso dipped pipe cleaner, and rinsed it well with water quickly afterwards, but it only really lasted about a month. It's alright though, for a measly 7 bucks I have two glass stems on the way from blisssville.

I just filled out the PA order form a few days ago, do you usually get an email/anything confirming your order? Or does it just magically show up in a week?

thanks!

You get an email notification in under a week. The unit arrives 48 hours after.
And now............
I made a shorty (how many vids can this guy do with an LB?) That talks about acrylic stems (I like glass better.. and wood too). My acrylic stem is my original.. And I know you guys believe when I say I give it a workout, but I clean it daily and have since day 1.
Also I address the fact that big vapor clouds with the MFLB don't come from the heat.. or the herb as much as your lung capacity. Although I have practiced well and am great with my LB... I am not neccesarily using the box better, as much as controling my lungs more!

Spot on as usual Vito. I also use this hit technique and get great success. I've also come to realize that my lung capacity has grown since I started vaping.

Whenever you've had surgery, as Vito can probably attest to, they give you a spirometer to help increase and maintain lung function. The purpose is to suck in air, keeping the little ball within the marks on the spirometer. I think you could probably rock that thing Vito! :lol:

Nice!! You dont like to save the vap goo or whatever you call it?

Would you consider that the sipping technique? Ive been using that lately and its working better for myself.

I just ordered a glass stem, i lost the acrylic one so just been using it "native" style, would you clean it same way? Or soak in iso?

Sorry for all the questions

Thanks mom! :) yes, I rocked the spirometer.... I had to "float that ball" daily in therapy for longer than I care to recall.
Vaping sure does increase the lung capacity. Elements in Cannabinoids are also known to assist in bronchodialation (unless you combust.. in which case you're pissing in the wind)

I do save vape goo. I stuck that qtip, in a half shot glass of 91%iso.. and when it is no longer brow,, I will pour that iso back into it's liitle glass jar to use next time until it is ready to evaporate.... I just didnt want to make the vid longer explaining harvest... my God so many stems/tubes/items to harvest!!!
That is what I would call sipping technique( actually the sip, is the amount you fill cheeks with, the whole thing I think of as sip/puff... or .. sip/swallow
I clean the glass one exactly the same, except you dont have to avoid soaking in Iso if that is easiest for you.
:peace:

Whip tubing wont wash well, much better to just replace it. and buy extra next time!
Yeah NYC girl... I gotta agree. I have washed and reused SSV tubing for a year... but that MFLB tubing, is a more pliable softer tubing, that due to its rubbery texture, will deteriorate easily when used with a solvent.

A new MFLB post.
First I will say that I just for the very first time saw a benefit to having the new cover latch. I was sitting and my 1/2 vapid weed was still in the box, sitting like a phone in cradle on the PA. I spun my chair, and the arm caught the PA cord, and pulled my LB off the windowsill.. it dangled ahair from the florr, safe but the window had opened part way from the inertia of the "yank'.. My 1/2 vapid dank left the box.. and went into the rug.(I do know how to save some herb.. but we have 3 dogs.. it was a hard save). Had I owned the newer box, this would not have happened!
Next a video in response to WatTyler- I put it here in MFLB thread because I use the MFLB to try this bubbler out. Trust me when I say, that when Magic Flight releases a water attachment it will blow this thing "out of the water"! :lol:

@ Vitolo: Your videos are great as always! I use a very similar technique to yours except I run my PA on the highest setting and then let the vapor build up for 2-4 seconds before inhaling and repeating. I find myself watching the vapor cloud form in the trench or make it's way into the stem before inhaling.

I clean my glass stem by dropping it into a ziplock with iso and salt. I give it a shake till it's clean and then a rinse with plain water and dry the inside with half a piece of toilet paper that I twist so that it can fit in the stem.

Just wanted to share my mistake with the community.

My box started to accumulate an awful amount of junk on the rails and I decided to do the ISO thing which worked really well except I went a bit overboard and splashed some ISO on the wood and started cleaning the wood also.

The wood expanded,warped and became concave, rendering the unit unusable since the plastic top needs to fit snugly but now since my unit was round on top I was out of luck.

I sent magic-flight an email telling them what happened and they then sent me a new box.

So be careful with your ISO and the wood.

I looked on the Deal Extreme website for a mini glass bubbler like some of you have, but all I could find was this one:

The price is different and that's why I want to make sure I'm getting the same (or similar) one that others on this thread have purchased. Is this the right one?

Thanks in advance!

The way you puff in this video is what I've been trying to describe in my post as a good way to puff because I think what is happening is that the hot air is hitting both sides of the herb when puffed this way. As you inhale the hot air is going into the herb and concentrating onto the core of the herb and as you stop inhaling it is forced back onto the outside of the herb and this makes for a more complete and concentrated extraction in a smaller time frame. It is basically contracting and expanding with every puff you do. Look at this video to see the connection and notice how the air in the bowl is going in and out based on the inhalation. When I do this I notice I get more of a taste than a straight inhale although I do it less forceful.

Go to 5:18

Btw, if you do the same puff method but hold it in your mouth, keeping the lips form opening too much so little to no air can mix with the vapor and when done take in a lot of fresh air to push the vapor deep into the lungs and exhale through the nose or even if you don't, you will get a nice high and more flavor because the vapor has more time to sit on your tongue and mouth and the fresh air forces the concentrated vapor deep into the lungs.

Edited to add: I'm new at this message board stuff....how do I change the link to say something other than "Your Link Text"?
That is the exact one. I was wrong.. it is only 3.50!
When you add any link, you will see the words "your link text" in the link you have posted, while still in edit mode. just change those words to whatever you want.

The flavors should be savored, as this becomes part of the cerebral construct, that makes the act of vaporizing a complete experience. We build a "gestalt".. a construct that lets us reflect on the total experience... I'm with you, man! :)

I was wondering what that water filter was like. Once the strike up here is over I'm getting one. Can't go wrong for $3.50!

That's so funny :lol:
I have been only using it a few months, but I really took to it. Its very size, and the fact that my cam is built in, lends itself to "video sharing" of the little things I find that make using my MFLB so enjoyable for me!
Fact is I wan't everyone that vaporizes to have as much fun and enjoyment as I do. That is why I post!

I ordered one as well, lol. It will be my first time using any kind of water filtration with vapor, looking forward to it.
