Oh that sounds great! I'm intrigued.
Edit: I just had a look at his Etsy store and I think I'd also go for the Petal pipe design over the low-profile ones. But they all look nice!

Lotus time! Cheers!
Did a review on the Petal pipe on another thread.

Happy Lotus Friday! I decided to make myself a pipe out of an absolutely hacked up and out of spec Petal Pipe base. With some TLC and "beauty in imperfection" mindsets, I think it turned out splendid and love it's flaws.
I love the color scheme of this photo; between the tray, lighter, scoop, and lotus. Lots of purples, blues, blacks, and bright white/silver. I know you were iffy about the replacement screws you put in and how they didn't sit flush, but I think it improves the look. The bold black accents compliment the other colors of the cap and plate.
Thank you so much for that review and the kind words! The first thing I noticed in this photo is how the beaten/grain finish of the pipe fits so well with all of the different deeply grained woods in the cap and surface. A well fitting aesthetic, for sure.
Seeing this and all these other pretty wood colorways temps me so much to buy a second lotus top. But I know that is a slippery slope. Even if the walnut/black looks phenom and the maple/orange is very halloweeny/fall vibes.
Lotus Sunday, because Friday and Saturday were busy. Feat. the fantastic Petal pipe by @maremaresing!

Thank you! The black screws have grown on me, too; I initially didn’t like how they don’t match well to the heating plate, but you’re right that they mesh well with the dark wood cap and deep blue ring.

Man, this is such a great vape. I sometimes forget... 
I love having slow flower sessions with it, but I also really like using it as a hash pipe! For being a pure convection vape I find that it's exceptional in that regard. But honestly, the concentrate pad...it could be so much better.
If it would be more on par with the Vapman sieve, or at least have a design that wouldn't let crumbs through so easily, I think the Lotus would be seen as a natural top contender when it comes to hash vapes.

I don’t do a lot of concentrates (ex hash) so didn’t pick up a test pack but early reviews are promising, specifically with the Lotus.
Oh yeah, I get good results with hash in the lotus. I just break it up over the screen into small enough bits that there isn't much gap, then rip it like normal. The stir tool in the Lotus top is very convenient to move things around frequently and keep it going.
I've not had great results with the concentrate pad of that style in this or other vapes. It's probably works correctly with a runny style of concentrate that can soak in, so the pad itself gets hot and adds conduction heat.
YMMV, obviously.
This too. I have some I haven't used, and they look like they'd fit the larger lotus bowl. Not sure if the less runny nature of hash would pair well.

Brand new lotus owner here! Grabbed the olive wood lotus/ paduak vapman click bundle for the 420 special( thanks vgoodiez.com). Really enjoying the lotus so far. You can really customize your hit/hits depending on what your in the mood for. And the feel of the sherlock pipe always gives you the wizardy pirate vibe which I really enjoy! Now to figure out how to post pics. Guess I have to go read the instructions. To the search bar!!!
