We could name them after top ranking members of the forum, since without the forum this thread wouldn't even be happening. Or they can suggest something themselves. Of course they have to be contacted and asked first. If we do this at all... Oh also here is something for the person who like the...

yeah idk, I just find that original design terrible. It's like a compromise between a sidecar and an angled straight tube that just looks cheap. Well at least the original has 6 tubes and the top of the pillar is curved, but $710 for that feels like a sick joke to me. But so what I just...

Wow, I passed out, I wake up, there's a video of a pillar... what... I'm pretty sure the ability of these chinese glass blowers is greatly underestimated. I need to learn chinese... btw. I was wondering about you @blankrider, do you like live in china or around? or how come you're in direct...

that hot water is gona be room temperature after 5 minutes... that's when I finally remember to actually take a hit. and does ice actually cause more residue on the walls? shouldn't the wetness hinder residue build up? regardless: don't let the smoke sit, just clear it out! I mean I like the...

finally someone gets it

tops themselves, to buy alone or trade up to

Well feel free to post flimsy drawings. I can put em into illustrator.

Yes let's get back to talking 'bout designs! btw. I gladly share my illustrator files if someone wants em Any suggestions, ideas on the pillar? I think pillar and matrix should make a great combo. A completely different design: How about glycerine? Is any of that china stuff good there? Anyone...

Good thing the bread costs a penny.

Yeah I actually quite enjoy scoping out china glass that's being flipped. Same goes for many other product categories (again me feeling superior... douchbag.. cough). If the price tag was $100, I'd probably get it, just saying more people would perhaps not buy it. Have to see what people's...

Hey, if we were to get like a 3% off coupon I'd be thrilled!

Idk it depends on how hard it is to make, maybe the tubes have be fairly precise for the bubbles to move like that. The price on the real thing surely is mostly based on the effect, branding and rarity. That also might influence the price on a dhgate version. Simply because it is so rare at the...

Yeah and then there is prbly about a 1000 postings on dhgate for various pieces and they have 1 transaction and no it's not a scam/fake/new seller. I mean the FC-187 is already #6 in stevens top sellers. 168 transaction on #1. Most headshops don't buy 1000 copies of one specific piece, they...

Yeah okay or maybe just take a step back and look at it like any other market. American glass just happens to be overpriced and China glass hasn't taken off yet. But the market will only keep growing. At the moment some of these chinese glass makers have no clue what they're even making it...

Alright, here is a little bit more polished version of the top piece. I don't really understand some of the suggestions. Maybe once I'm sober.. So yeah the mouthpiece can't extend out too far or this will prbly not be stable. Otherwise the shape can be modified however I guess. On the actual...

mine has that too, diffuser beads fixed that.

Idk, Ima wait and see what people report on the FC-187 quality-wise. I mean steven the guy who is making them has some complex pieces. Mainly this one I guess: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/2014-new-glass-water-pipe-35cm-height-glass/207341310.html And this one is pretty tiny I guess...

Looks like lighthound has the AWs back in stock

Another thing I liked to see, ice on top of a pillar. Ignore that weird arm on there.

"but my laptop shat itself today" nice. :P that drawing was just to see if I could actually make it in illustrator, its based on a shitty drawing by blankrider in the cheap china glass thread. What I'm actually trying to figure out is a pillar bubbler with the joint for the bowl or whatever...
