    Hey hazy, the The Apostrophe Protection Society is looking for members I hear :)

    Thanks Tom - I realise now why the Eterra instructions are as they are. I like to think that I've got a pretty good lung capacity and can take very long, slow draws on the PD and have never felt I'm going out of the vapor zone.

    Hey fellow PD users, I got reading the instructions for the Eterra which of course operates on a similar way to the PD with a stem and a heat exchanger. I found the instructions quite specific and am wondering to what extent they might apply to PD use as well...here's an extract that I found...

    Welcome to Fuck Combustion...Tell us about yourself here!

    Hey there dtkenmo - welcome to the motherlode of pure, no bullshit vapor information...I'm pretty new here myself but from the way you describe yourself and your interests, I think you're gonna like it here :) Some great people here who know what they're talking about and definitely the most...

    Growing your own is indeed a wonderful thing. And if your daily driver is a PD, you don't actually need to be growing large crops to keep yourself going. A couple of ounces goes a long way in a PD.

    Here in Australia, the easiest places to obtain Tygon it seems is from computer overclocking stores - the hardcore geeks use Tygon as part of the water cooling for their overclocked CPU's. After saying I wasn't going to get any, I purchased 1m of Tygon lab-grade tubing (3603). The lab grade...

    I just tried Acolyte's mouth-bong technique and it's great. If I had any concerns about the PD it was the stream of dry air hitting my mouth & throat. But the mouth-bong gives sweet moist vapor. :) You've got to pay attention to making sure that no water runs down the tube into the heater...

    Less is more indeed...in an attempt to just play with the efficiency of the PD, I've been packing tiny bowls, literally a few flakes and getting vapor clouds from the tiniest amount. Amazing...

    Thanks for the info re exotic timbers Max - good to know. I can't see myself adding silicone or Tygon tubing to my PD mouthpieces. I do find that I like to have a glass of water handy however when having a bowl.

    Yes - they are both grown in plantations here. Tea Tree is largely grown for the oil which is distilled from the leaves and which has antimicrobial properties. I imagine they harvest the timber as well. I've only got to drive a few minutes and I can be surrounded by Tea Tree plantations...

    The other thing to consider when sourcing exotic wood is where it has come from - please don't buy tropical rainforest timbers that have not been harvested sustainably. The extent of environmental devastation of tropical rainforests in third world countries is heart-wrenching...

    Yeah, the bowl is even smaller than the Vapman. I find I'm getting 3 good draws from a bowl.

    Ah hah, that's how the air travels, nice. And here I was thinking that the air was coming in through the tube junction. I'm loving my new PD by the way Tom - am running it about 10 hours a day and finding it very easy & convenient to use. Every aspect of it is just sweet - the looks, the...

    Yes, yes, yes - it slides in with a little room to spare. Mine slides easily and rests on the crossbar. It sounds like your tube is oversized - have you tried your other tubes? I recall someone else here with a tube that didn't quite fit as well...I'm sure Tom will chime in... Once you get...

    I suspect that 'older' people are probably more numerous amongst the ranks of dedicated vaporisers, with a few notable exceptions. I bet the average age of people here at FC is higher than at, say, the glass forums at tokecity... When you're 41, your lungs mean a whole lot more to you than when...

    Can't believe it - my three year old started digging at the purple LED with a pen and has sort of roughed it up a bit there. Can I just put a drop of epoxy over the LED hole do you think? Then maybe sand a little with 600/800 grit, then some 0000 steelwool with some buzz butter?
