I wont doubt that some might not function, but I see bubbles going the right way down the tube. And I get super big smooth rips. I do however think its much smaller then I thought it would be and will be thrown out soon after I get an upgrade.
The main issue with collars breaking imo has been addressed by the new GPonGs. It was mostly due to improper cleaning and then wiggling the pong out of the collar.
Thats the big trade off. U would have to change out anytime u want to use the PNWT. JoDa is prepared to make longer glass sections for the GPonG but he needs one sent to him to use for specs.

I didnt specifically request the smaller vortex chamber but the picture reflected that style (obv. Its cgd). I also asked him to confirm he had seen the picture and was comfortable with that. He said he would be doing similar and was comfortable. I could get more detailed but i think he...
Just FYI I feel the same way about the design, but After 24 hours of great communication Mike will be making me a recycler based on the picture I sent him of a particular piece Cory did.
