Any updates from anyone on their pieces either how their replacements are doing or just in general? Hope my last response didn't somehow kill the discussion...

If anything, ramping them both up together should minimize a temp shock. I suspect there was a weak spot in your bowl and it wasn't necessarily due to the balls expanding. For one thing, the quartz bowl's bottom would expand greater than the balls and the other point would be the spheres would...

I didn't have a note like that and I didn't get any extra media :/ I'll repack mine with quartz on the bottom.

What a bummer. What note did they pack in? (I don't have the quartz topper but I'm not sure if that would have any impact on this issue)

650-700. Sometimes up to 750. What were you running when it cracked?

I had been using mine for at least a couple months without issue. I have mine packed full...albeit with an assortment. Not sure what the exact reason for mine not having an issue is. Could be due to thermal expansion or even a weak line in the quartz when it was blown.

That's the original pukinbeagle, too, right?

I didn't see that coil in the background of that video until I watched it a few times :) It's not my favorite implementation but if it gets the job done...I had envisioned a mini-UTH. Not complaining just not what I had in mind. I will say when I was using my pukinbeagle kit I put it on par...

Yeah, supposed to come with stand. Wow, those balls caused that? I'll have to snap a shot of mine because I've got all the balls in it haha. Did anyone get the full order with the heater? When I had my order in, I had all the options ticked off. Has anyone seen the heater they include/developed...

I'd like to see this version. I had one ordered and in the meantime been using the pukinbeagle version, which I haven't used much since diagnosed with heart issues :( Had to contact DNail and cancel my VGW pre-order because of said heart problems. So now I'm just an innocent bystander to the...

No, the problem is not limited to the flower mill. It's a well-known issue resulting in a variety of ways to try and mitigate it. The ever-popular Brilliant Cut Grinder utilizes a plastic ring, which would obviously be difficult to detect shavings because of the color/composition of the plastic...

Yes, and it's completely inappropriate along with all that psychobabble talk preceding it. The facts are this: 1. The company and its product launched from this site, with feedback from this site's users 2. The customers are experiencing issues with these products 3. The owner of the company...

They weren't legitimate back then, either. It was discussed in this thread back then. One of the reasons I cancelled my pre-order.

It's "plastic" regardless the type. I wasn't making a dig at you. I've been anti-petroleum products in my consumption for over forty years. I was glass on glass long before I was able to get rid of combustion. I used to do solar hits--using a magnifying glass--before vaping technology got to the...

So now customers will be ingesting microplastics, which I would argue is much more difficult to avoid and more concerning than whatever residue we were finding.
