Gah! So many choices. Someone tell me which cap I should buy. I'm so indecisive it's hurting my brain.

20mm Liger is Gordo riptide bubble cap or chadbro bubble cap or any china bubble cap if your going cheap.
30mm Liger is Wierdeer cap or chadbro V2 terp trunk
Got it. Wouldn't the Wierdeer hit the stem? Or is it not that deep?

OMG, I just tried this using their own Tsunami flat tip standard dabber. I threaded it through the Wierdeer as shown, and did a dab with it that way. My one complaint with the 'deer was that the hits are a little airy, while still potent and large. The reason for this is now obvious, the air path is just too free for me. With the extra restriction offered by the dabber, I just took the fullest, most flavorful dab of my life.....and it was just some every day driver crumble. I will now hit my HTFSE, and sail off into la la land. Thanks for the post dude.
Wierdeer for both IMO
If you have a wierdeer cap try threading the needle technique. I use a HE flat dabber and leave it in the carb cab throughout the whole hit.

I use a Chad Bro bubble cap and love it on my 20 mm V2. I have a bunch of caps that I have tried....most work ok, the Chad Bros works perfectly for my purposes.I have both Gordo and the Chad Bro bubble. The Gordo is cooler in pretty much every way, except in the one that matters most... function. The Chad Bro bubble, though cheap and simple, creates a MUCH better seal on the 20mm than the Gordo. I've dropped my Chad Bro bubble a ton and they are resilient little bastards. I love the Gordo, especially for for traditional quartz nails, but it's shape doesn't create the greatest seal on the 20mm.
As for the 30mm, the Weirdeer cap is the best BY FAR. The function on it is incredible. I love CCA, but their strength is definitely not in their caps. I haven't used any of mine in over a year.
30mm, I also use the Gordo Scientific Riptide.You using that with the 20mm or 30mm liger?
Hey everyone, I have enlisted the help of a local glass blower to make some very reasonable no nipple bubble caps for the 30 mm. He sold me mine for 25, and it it very good. If anyone is interested in this science experiment we have going on (he is gonna blow a few more for me, as we are working to get it just right) just reply. I am super excited that he is taking the time to design the cap with me to fit my needs. So far we have the air flow down and it's down to subtle bubble shape and getting the hole positioned.
Ah, I had forgotten. The Wierdeer is working well, and I have been using it too much under the excuse that I am "dialing it in"That's how it works, and let me tell you, it's the best thing since sliced bread. I cap and dab in one motion, no lost terps, full vaporization in 1 and a half hits with a .1 load. Great taste every time. I am so pleased with this setup. (not sure if the pic is showing right, I uploaded it to imgur and inserted the link, so I am not sure whats wrong)
Image didn't work also, are you describing the Weirdeer or the custom bubble? How would you compare the two?
Arent u scratching the shit out of the insert with the dabber when ur spinning the cap for airflow? Im guessing u would leave the dabber in for the restricted airflow or do u pull it out to bit so its not touching the dish after the dab drops in?

Here is a link to the pic, it is all that I can get working https://imgur.com/a/N8J1M. The custom bubble aims downward, so that is a big difference between it and the Hurricane. The custom bubble has a small air hole too, so you can't thread the CCA dabber through it ( I use a thin TI dabber I picked up from the local headshop for that). The custom bubble is nice because the guy makes the air hole the size you want it, so it doesn't need further restriction to fit my tastes. I use the Wierdeer cap mostly though, because of the guys skill in glass blowing. It is just a tad more spherical, the flow is just a bit more perfect, and it just "looks" better together with the CCA flat tip standard. The bubble now rides my quav, scratching that itch I get for a torch dab ever so often.
