Hiya all! Hope the weekend treated you right. I've been in contact with DDave and he is busy with a lot of projects so we're on our own. I haven't moved forward until DD and I had some communication between us. So I have a lot of gongs without any dimpling. I think so far let's stick with...

Oh, btw ... I thought it'd be interesting to show you all how I score and just snap glass in a studio. (Vid is not mine ... just for visual reference)

Thanks for everyone's input. I have 10mm with 1mm walls that I can play with in the flame before committing to 9mm. There is a method of condensing the glass on one end to thicken the glass up for the 14/18mm joint. I'm going to try it tomorrow... taking advantage of this holiday weekend as...

So the glass I'm using is the same as what @VAPEHUNTER sent me. That's 9mm with 1.5mm walls allowing 6mm of chamber. If I were to order thinner 9mm glass (I guessing you used 1mm walls) I can try it out. How durable is the tube you're mod? You're right about the chances of frequent breakage...

Hi all, I'll have to purchase the 18mm forming tool. Probably won't be until next month after I get paid. This week has been both productive and frustrating. My 14mm joint former broke on me. So while I've got a good amount of 14mm stems I'll probably send what I have until I can buy new...

... just measuring response for ...mmmaybe the near future? Making a list and will be checking it twice ... Sorry for the William Shatner cadence

Thanks! Yes, it's fun to watch the vape swirling ... kinda like a vortex. This thing is just a prototype so I didn't put a carb on it. The next one will ... just testing both functions. So this is a pretty crude prototype. It reminds me of my spoon days.

I just tried 24 ... way too slow to get that coil to glow. Need to find my 20 gauge. Wait, 20 would be bigger ... Edit: I had the cap touching all of the coil and no short ... interesting Edit 2: oh yeah, tried something new. It's the size of a robusto cigar. Hits hard ...

It looks like 32 gauge. @antispleen ... how do you not have a short with metal on metal?

Thick jade glassy. Made one before but this turned out much better. Thanks for looking. (Carb on other side)

Ok cool. Just wanted to clarify.

Hi all, Just was wondering over the weekend if I should stop my production until we finalize our design along with @DDave? Or should I still send out the simple beta stems in the meantime?

That's a really nice piece!

This is a drawing we came up earlier And here are physical pieces with a mocked up hand made 14mm Hope that helps.

Well that makes total sense. Why reinvent the wheel? Anyone else have this mod also from @DDave and confirm the fit? Could there be a collaboration to make custom gong stem convection mod? Anything is possible. Let's put our resources together. @justvapin would you mind posting images of the...

Hi @DDave We're discussing modding a glass stem for the Supreme V3 and it was suggested we should go this route We started off with just the simple gong but ideas are popping up based off your design. We didn't want to copy it so we'd really appreciate input and or involvement. Off to make an...

Hi all, Here's some of the stems from an overnight soak in the kiln. The brass tool is the magic that makes a 14mm joint. Anyway, back to the bench!

Well, let's get @DDave in here :)

What's the correct phrase? You break some eggs before you make an omelette. Yeah, I had to break a few a start again. Didn't like the way some mated with the male joint. Good news I made replacement ones and a few more. I've got a bin with some with dimples waiting to be put in ... photos later...

Almost branded myself with "pacpav" on my forehead testing a different body style (to be compatible with 10mm mini rigs). Just a proof of concept ... experimenting and getting ideas.
