Anybody has any more info on the piece sold by americanglasstudio on ioffer? Would love to see some of his work in action before pulling the trigger on one of them.

Not sure how the percs work...would not want to end up buying a 'nice piece' that totally is nonfunctional...

After many, many tries, (solo + EQ) it still not working well at all, to the point that I will not even sell it as I could not pass this faulty (I hope and presume) device on to anyone, unfortunately!!

I'm finding it hard to imagine what could be wrong with yours. Unless the slits are really really thin and short, nothing should be stopping the flow of air like you state. I guess it could be the downstem to perc weld or something.

Well the sample size should be going up, has anyone else bought this bubbler? I can't believe only two members have bought one, I thought it looked like a decent piece for only $40. A lot more glass than the $32 D020 or the $40 Infamous.

The $32 D020 was more like a $28 dollar deal IIRC when the early adopters found. But I hear ya I'm surprised more of those and the ones like DS and Roger bought, haven't been gobbled up. I'm wanting to get those and to get a newer hc like tepic and bo! Damn GAS!!!

i have this piece as well with the blue accents. has a nice volume, stacks well, and uses very little water as the slits are right at the bottom of the can. mouthpiece is a comfortable size. zero drag for me. i would recommend it... especially if you want a bit more volume than the d020.

not sure what is wrong w/oli's piece... maybe the slits werent cut all the way clean thru? mine has zero drag.

Ok got my mini hc bong from pipesdaddy! http://www.pipesdaddy.com/Honeycomb-Perc-Mini-Glass-Water-Pipe-p/wp-0198.htm

It's pretty much the same diameter as the pnwt, though a bit thinner glass not sure but would guess no higher than 3mm for sure. Mine measures 7.5" tall with a base slightly over 3 1/8". At first I was disappointed, I hooked up my PnP and noticed the fit wasn't as snug as any of my other 14mm pieces. So I noticed the 14mm male end of the bowl was shaven down a bit further than any of my other pieces. The bowl fit perfectly flush, but all my other pieces have a slight wobble which leads me to believe the seal is not perfect. So I began testing with the ready to rip PnP and it worked fine tasted on par with the pnwt if not slightly under. However I had to turn the bong sideways for enough clearance just to stick my fat head in and get some! Damnit! :doh: There is a very short list of vapes you could set directly onto this rig, without fear of breaking the stem. :mad: So to say the least, Im a lil bummed to start of the testing. However, @Tweak you nailed it using tubing with this lil guy is great! Really great! :nod: I got some really cool Marvin the Martian space gun halo's without the use of Rezblock or NACE!:love: I just need to pick up a 14mm bong/whip adaptor now, bc it's annoying using the increaser with my 18mm attachments. I stuck my T2 14/18 domeless nail on there and took a few nice dabs, really easy to manipulate and hold in your hand while dabbing.:science: ohh ya how does the perc fire? Well with restriction such as whip or vape attached it whirlpools immediately after hitting the ice pinches so you don't suck it all in only tiny splashes on harder clears really. When hitting it with nothing attached it just kind of sloshes around unimpressively. Lots of bubbles around the downstem-bong attachment point as well as under and above the hc disc as well. So with that add the very short list of direct attachment w/o tubing and the slightly whacked 14mm joint, I couldn't reccomend this unless your looking for an interesting Errl rig or whip. :whip:Hope this helps!:rockon::cheers:

Thanks for that HC review SSVUN~YAH I had eyeballed that piece many times before finding the aliex/dhgate stuff. Though I still feel the draw, I think i have satiated my GAS enough for now to keep a handle on it, though I am still actively watching for the next great find! That funky worked up recycler rip off I found had my attention but the price tag is still to far out for me to risk it.

Aargh! Why hasn't somebody taken the plunge on one of these!?!

Do you guys really think they would send something completely different,
as some kind of cruel joke?

I think I must officially have gas now (I swore it wouldn't happen),
because I can't stop thinking about this thing!

It's a recycler right?
Because I don't have one of those, somebody stop me!



Okay I'll work on it next time a friend comes over.
It feels unrestricted, lots of turbulence but not a huge diffuser so there's still
a big air chamber even with the water bubbles if that makes any sense.
The slits are indeed all cut in pairs.

It's my new favorite piece,
1st new one in a long time besides the swaggertube and I want more :rockon:


edit: I'm glad dhgate doesn't take paypal...

I'm glad to have one of those claisen adapters too, such a great price considering my cloud buddy was over $40, not really sure who first posted about them, but I appreciate the tip, and glad to pass it on...

I had a blast with my 10" tube I owned. If it wasn't for all these kicka$$ cheap bubblers, I'd recommend all vape beginners start with a tube. Easy to clean, easy to hold, and so fast to clear.

I might have a 14mm WPA for ya, I'm using all 18mm now that my GBD bubbler is gone, and I've broken the two I had, so you wouldn't happen to have a spare 18mm WPA? :)

Anyone have suggestions for a cheap j-hook? Looking for one for my soon to be lotus and I know there is one out there for cheaper than the $18 they are charging

My SERLOCKS (JHOOKS) were $10.00 each at the LOCAL ASMOKE SHOP so online delivered for $18.00 seems to be a fair price. I seen them on line for $35.00 however the quality might be worth it? I haven't broke mine yet so I scored.
A glass stem with a LOTUS will make a nice piece!

If I had to get new glass (PR's auction kinda got rid of that need for me) I would look at this piece.

I have one of these on order also, along with a d020 from a seller on dhgate. I could have sworn i had seen a piece identical to it on smoketower.ca a month ago for $150, but for some reason it has dissappeared now that i went looking for it to double check. Going to be interesting to see how it performs!

AHA! Found it. Is this not pretty dang close (in looks)?

Poor Grasscity they must have to pay sooooo much for freight :doh: when I compare the price of this piece with the same one overhere in Europe!! I notice they have giving it a sensual name now : Lascivious Lara :love:

http://www.head-shop.fr/tree/3030/Grace-Glass-Bangs/article/09157/Grace-Glass-Bong-"Lascivious-Lara"-30cm.xhtml

This was my very first piece of glass and have been so happy with it! :cheers:
