Is the FP with the dnail wrap around discontinued? I don't see it any longer on their ordering site.

If you want minimal diffusion and water a classic straight tube bong is hard to beat.
OK, Folks...
I've been thinking about this all day, and I see no downside. So here it is:
The Ultimate FlowerPot Accessory: Titanium J-Hook.
You read right... now just imagine it. A NewVape Bowl sized chunk of Titanium, perfectly machined to match a 19/22 (18mm to us stoners...) female standard taper. Out of the side, a 1/4" diameter tube of Titanium is pressfit, locked into place with an internal pin, and (optionally) bent to resemble a standard J-Hook curve. I'm thinking 6" to 8" long, with silicon rubber sleeve tubing on the stem to keep it cool to the touch. Just pop a NewVape bowl on top to rock and roll!
I would buy 5 RIGHT NOW if this was available...
Edwyn, a lot of the local heads I've shown my FlowerPot setup to end up LOVING sweet low-temp J-Hook hits, but they want something less likely to break than glass, and many just don't want to mess with a water rig. Period.
All Titanium vapor path. Unbreakable. Compact. Light weight.
Thank this post if you want one... You all KNOW you want one!
Seriously, though, this one's a winner.

I would be all over this!!! Let's make it happen. May lose some flavor compared to a glass j-hook but the durability would be awesome.Edwyn,
You are not understanding the design. Two parts. One machined similar to your standard female bowl but no top opening, and a side hole (for the tubing), the other is a piece of Ti tubing that press fits and is pinned into the tapered "bowl holder" piece with a small pin (crosswise on tubing O.D. edge) to retain it forever.
The Grade 2 tubing (0.250" O.D., 0.187" I.D.) is $20 per foot in low volume, cheaper in the lengths you would buy. You know what your bowls cost to machine... you sell them for $40.
I'm thinking you could make these and sell a Ti J-Hook at your usual markup for under $80... no welding required, just 2 press operations.
If you make it, I will buy a bunch. You know I won't be alone.
Today I purchased a little friend for my Flower Pot. I like glass rigs with low diffusion and I have been looking at diffusion pumps for a while. Happy DHgate is so amazingly cheap. At their prices I could pick up a new glass piece every few months even though I won't.
I must be missing something 'cause I need to see pictures to make sense of this.Edwyn,

...But a Titanium J-hook is insane. Just imagine the number of these @NewVape710 could sell. This is a super idea that could should have be done before.
So more of an "L" hook than a J-hook. I get it now.

You'd need three hands if you wanted to carb cap it. The mental image of me wielding something like that isn't pretty, but to each his own!
Hogni that all sounds fantastic, Im really not surprised by anything you have reported. Im very happy that you are so happy with the Showerhead! What did I tell you (and everybody else?)-Yesterday arrived a nice small package with a lot of tin. Gave all the pieces a PBW wash and afterwards a quick Iso wash. Assembled the whole stuff and was surprised that the setup was smaller than expected.
Really well processed pieces.
But @NewVape710 , why do you engrave the number into the surface of the Showerhead dish? Does that make sense when you try to have a clean and plain surface? I didn't try dabs on it but could imagine it's more difficult to keep the surface clean with that engraving?
Was short in time so I could start testing only in the later evening. Two bowls each of them with 0.1 - 0.15 Chemdawg, last bowl DD with nearly full melt Chemdawg hash. The 2nd one just for science's sake but I really didn't need it.
Fucking hell! I was so baked I wasn't able to report afterwards. Could only read some postings holding one eye closed.
Such a flavourful, hard hitting experience with smoothest vapour!
Was uptemping from 520 - 570 from draw to draw. Preheated bowl (w/o filling) uncapped, just the last hit capped to suck out the rest.
First impressions. Best flavour and awesome vapour despite the low temps. Very even roasted to a light brown and total extraction.
Normally I'm very fast coughing cause of my damaged bronchia and lungs but this was a surprising smooth experience. Nearly no irritations to my bronchia.
Most other vapes deliver vape which is getting more whispy and whispy from draw to draw until the end. The Showerhead don't so - it don't make things halves - get vape or get nothing!
In deed last draw of each bowl was still cloudy and the draw afterwards - really nothing even when more upheated and capped.
Whow, that was a new vaping experience for me.
I've to test more but I think the SH blows the Herborizer Ti out of the water even regarding taste and smoothness and - that I'm getting a twax fanboy!
Good job, Edwyn!
EDIT: Got two bowls, the 14 and the 18mm. Used the absultely clean18mm on a fresh cleaned joint and it was really fast sticking. Yep, expanding material while upheating + opressive weight of the showerhead.
Now I know what you are speaking about. Luck that I used an 18-18 adapter which I could take out with ease. Edwyn, good that you've overworked the taper of the new bowl. It's a real lack of construction. Fuck, now I need new bowls too - NewVampyre
@Alexis, friend, if this device isn't working for you your really last chance might be the all glass GS - or you unfortunately have to quit vaping! I don't hope so. May you not loose one of your last joys.
Today I cleaned up the vape area a little, put a strip of electrical tape over the controller display to dim it a bit...
And put my Evo away It's lived on my desk for the last 26 months but it's time for a rest lil buddy
PyrO, I could swear that your FC 186 bubbler looks a little different to me and more like Edwyn's model, in that the top of the downpipe looks to be much closer to where the beginning of the mouthpiece starts. I will have a better look later I did actually clean my FC 186 this morning for some potential usage!Today I cleaned up the vape area a little, put a strip of electrical tape over the controller display to dim it a bit...

Yes, totally- that looks more like it, optical illusions! I just thought it was odd, thanks for clearing that up quickly, and for the refreshing and motivating images.
