Hey sessnet, Jackmormon asked that question on page 42. You'll see answers shortly after :)

This one's just for fun. When you're about to vaporize some herb, what do you call it? In other words, if you do it with someone else, what do you say to each other to indicate you want to do it? Maybe everyone will say that they just call it "vaping," but not me. For my wife and I, it's...

I actually don't get an unfinished or rough sense from the bottom of my HI at all. The finishing work around the hexagonal cutout is actually really impressive. The right-angle plug fits perfectly into the hexagonal cutout. Every square millimeter of visible wood on the thing is sanded smooth...

Yeah should have made that more clear. That's just a random video on Youtube (and please excuse the annoying audio, haha).

Yeah, HPG definitely needs a better backdrop for their photos. I can definitely make out what the pieces look like without any filtering though. Here's a Youtube video I found showing the piece with the downstem inserted vertically:

Bingo.

Ended up throwing all of my previous choices out the window and going with something that I knew all along would be extremely practical: HiSi Jamaican Can Bubbler from High Priority Glass. First of all, videos of diffusion from the included downstem look great. The angle of the downstem will...

Base unit + Non-VV PS: $140 Exotic wood: +$10 VV-PS: +$15 Glass/silicone turbo tube OR poly/silicone turbo tube: +$10 Thick all-glass 14.4mm GonG turbo tube: +$30 I think Alan makes a thinner all-glass turbo tube for maybe $20, but you'll want the thick one. I've dropped the thick one...

Just to confirm: hivape.com has nothing to do with the HI discussed in this thread. There is no website for Alan's HI, at least not yet. For now, this thread serves as Alan's interface with his customers.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by "quality of the glass is excellent" if it isn't as straight and precise? From reading on other sites, it looks like SSFG pieces sometimes come w/ bubbles, crooked percs etc. I know that this can happen with virtually all manufacturers, but I just want the...

My bocote unit gets pretty hot on the exterior at the temp I like for vaping, so I usually drop it down to about 50% when i'm not using it. Then I pack a bowl, take the first hit and turn the unit up to 100%. 50% is hot enough for a large cloud with a fresh bowl. After I turn it up to 11, the HI...

I contacted SSFG and they can make me either a beaker with a showerhead DS and showerhead perc, or a gridded stemline, for $150+$15 shipping. Crazy prices for pieces like that, considering a comparable HVY 5mm beaker with a showerhead perc and a shittier 6-slit downstem would cost upwards of...

Yeah, I'd be majorly bummed if I dropped $240 on a piece where the whole point is quality and durability, only to find that my ultra-thick glass is encasing crooked or poorly functioning perks. Might as well buy fucking china glass in that case. Should I just save myself a bunch of money and...

Now I'm even more confused. I was almost sold on the HVY 9mm 4-arm, but then I read a bunch of posts on grasscity saying that HVY is notorious for crooked percs, improperly cut slits, slits not firing, etc. What to do?!

Yeah, I know I'll still be working the HI/slide with one hand, but there's a decent amount of distance between your face and your HI when you're using your Sheldon Black, boobs. I think this is due to the shape/length/angle of the mouthpiece. The distance between your face and the joint is...

That's actually the reason why I'm considering tubes/beakers more so than bubblers - it just seems like holding a bubbler up with one hand and using the other hand to work the HI/slide would be less convenient than resting the base of the tube/beaker on my lap. The latter scenario also allows me...

Any specific reason why the Mobius bubblers would give me a better experience than the Nano? All of the bubblers are now sold out at ALT anyhow, so this might be a moot point. Still wondering about the 9mm question... is the 9mm 4-arm beaker from HVY going to give me the best bang for my buck...

Watched the video. The cloud is definitely longer than the HI, but remember the 3" length of the all-glass turbo tube that would be sitting on top of an 18/14 reducer on top of the bubbler itself. Doesn't look too uncomfortable on a table top, but I do most of my vaping from the couch. Just...

When I first started looking at glass I really wanted an Ion or Clear bubbler, but I'm afraid that ergonomics might become a problem. I'd need an 18-14 reducer adaptor, and then placing the HI all-glass turbo tube (3") on top of that will greatly increase the effective height of the bubbler. I'm...

Modnote: 5 Mobius threads were merged into one. I'm trying to decide on my first piece of glass, and I'm pretty committed to spending less than $300. I love the look of the Mobius Nano Zero-Drag and I've read plenty of great reviews about it. At the same time, for roughly the same price (or...
