Got me there, the physics of it are beyond me.
All I know (think) is that the boro' and the oil must bend light to a similar degree for this effect to occur.
Great stuff, they're lovely.
More questions!:
It that some sort of brass ferrule between the cap and the stem?
Or is it part of the cap?
I particularly like this piece PP, NICE!
What is the brass piece between the tip and the wood?
I can see from other pic's that the ends of your stems are...
I think that if two substances have the same refractive index then light can pass from one to the other without the boundary between bending the path and revealing the boundary as a visible artifact.
That's nice @phattpiggie.
Really cool shape and length.
This, and the teak one you posted are especially good shapes.
They are tapered right?
It's not just barrel distortion from the lense of your camera?
Do they have condenser tubes in them?
Snappo just sorted me out with a truly beautiful piece of burl wood :love:
Thanks man :clap:
Despite me being an awkward/picky customer he bent over backwards to find something to my tastes, and I can't praise him enough.
Anything short of a full artillery salute just won't do:
Thanks again...
NO NO, leap year........ Feb' 29th only comes around about every 4 years.
So you might have the hopper in time for his next birthday.
I'll get my coat.....
6 bowls per battery is MORE than enough for me (lightweight).
I'm pretty sure that it will keep me in my 'happy place' for a full day :D
Since I didn't make the cutoff for the Zion, I'm going to save up for an Ed's exotic Milaana to compliment the one I've already ordered (I know, exotic is...
@FlyingLow
Both ends, and now the blonde in the middle are taken AFAIK.
They're all gorgeous though eh?
Edit:
I wonder if these have logo's on the other side?
I hope so, I really like both of them.
Far left!, far left!
Seriously though, I'd love to buy that one, right now :)
Or the one near the middle with the 'blond' end.
Am watching your site now:o
Edit:
THANK YOU GEORGE!
Brilliant service :bowdown:
I GOT MY FIRST VAPCAP! :worms:
The blondie in the middle :love:
I won't get...
Lovely, lovely, lovely :love:
Thanks for those @Shit Snacks
I did (for a split second) mistake your Dynastash for an exotic wood Milaana!
I also like Ed's stem, but do think that it looks a little skinny compared to the glass stem.
I will however definitely get one, especially if we can...
My understanding is that the Milaana is completely unregulated with no low voltage cut-off, but that it stops producing vapor before the battery gets low enough to be a problem.
I think it's just a battery, a button, a space-age heater, and a sexy hunk o wood.
