Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Boy do your nails heat up fast!!!

I should look into small nails like that. I really liked the nail on the Starbud Frapp. That thing was a little tinsel pot looking thing but it's perfect for just dumping a dab and not worrying about positioning of the dabber or whatever.

I want one.

You leave smoke in your pieces when you're done taking a hit. That's sacrilegious!

That double honeycomb was awesome. I thought you were going to burn your fingers for a minute going for the nail.

Thanks for the video Boogerman. You rock.

Just got my D020-K from sunshinestore. I've always loved the way @ataxian 's looks and it was a great price. Came in about 2 weeks all in, most of that was shipping on the US side though, the actual piece was mailed out almost immediately. Unfortunately I have a postman who has decided to essentially stop delivering packages so it took a bunch of extra days to actually get it in hand here. Anyway never used a perc like this so I'm unsure about the water level. Tried to match what I've seen in other pics but any tips would be appreciated. Here it is with a female to female and nano gong on it:

Piece seems perfect except for a little bump on the outside that I didn't even notice till I'd been using it for a bit and has no performance effect. Also the yellow isn't the water, it's the wall behind it.

EDIT: now that I have the piece in hand I realize that it might actually be the same one I saw in a LHS for $160! Except I believe that one was 14mm instead of 18 and didn't come with a nail, dome, and a bowl.

I fill just above the honeycomb. (1 cm)

Fill it try it add more water if necessary?

Sith I care
I fill just above the honeycomb. (1 cm)

Fill it try it add more water if necessary?

The ideal fill level will depend on the reciprocal volume of the piece (the volume of water that has to be pumped out of the stem to allow air to flow through it into the perc, called "reciprocal" as it's the volume that moves back and forth), as this has to be added to the resting water level to get the final volume of fluid above the perc in operation. I've found most honeycomb rigs work best with the water level about flush with the disc, though. I have four different cheapie honeycomb pieces, which I admit isn't a shitload, but it's a decent sample size, and I've found all of mine are happiest with the water at or just below the top of the HC disc. The more water that's above the disc in-operation, the fewer holes fire, and the more drag you experience.

A honeycomb should be basically dragless after the initial water displacement, but if you're making it lift so much water that it can't aerate it properly, you're lowering the flow efficiency. Now not only are you expending more effort to lift more water, you're having to put in more effort to lift the water you were already lifting, because the denser the volume of froth is, the more it weighs, and so the more effort it takes to hold against gravity.

Edit: Ooh, post 2^9.

I wanted to know if anyone knows of the perfect piece for an evo. It would have to fit the evo, needs clearance around the joint and I was looking for a higher diffusion piece with a bigger volume.

So what one is your favorite?

Honestly I like them all! I know that doesn't help if someone is trying to buy just one, but say I had only $60 and could just buy one I would probably get the Starbud Frapp because the design is unique and it is perfect size for vaping and dabbing.

If I wanted something more conventional I would go with the 187 because that is also a good size rig for vaping and dabbing :D

However, if I liked more diffusion I would go with the 194 or if I was strictly into dabbing I would get the double barrel!

That was VG ecig juice being used in those vids, read the post a little closer :p

Oh. When I read that I thought he meant watered down weed oil. Guess I missed the e-liquid part and thought too long on the VG (PG, PEG) reference and assumed it was mixed with weed.

I've been considering trying out nicotine juice just to see what it's like but am hesitant to prove that gateway drug theory correct! :)

If you can handle the nicotine?
THC oil would be a better test!

Kathy one of the vendors on dhgate is really good to deal with. I have a few pieces with her. No problem!

Please don't. Of course you can do as you like but seriously don't go down that road. I have been addicted to nicotine for many years and I just can't recommend it. Sure the past few years I have been smoke free but even the ecigs are just feeding the addiction. Nicotine is nothing to mess around with. I'm not saying trying it once will get you hooked...but why even try it in the first place.

@HugieLewis I completely agree with you. I am thankfully not addicted to nicotine and I should have mentioned this but the VG juice I used is nicotine free. I just like the concept of vapor so no need to add nicotine for me :D

Well it looks like San Francisco hates me again this week.

My Kathy Planet Rigs arrived to San Fran on Sunday 6/15 and they haven't moved an inch since. Same deal happened with my 194 replacement last week. This is kind of annoying lol.

With all my other orders, the package would sit in San Fran for 1 day and then arrive to Arizona the next day. I wonder what happened :(

On a brighter note I found an awesome slow motion video app for my iPhone so my goal this weekend is to make a slow motion video for each piece I have and create an awesome signature like @GSH has :)

That's great! Now we will be able to just point folks to your and @GSH's sigs. :) Thanks.

And, if anyone notices a good cheap claisen (and plug) please point it out.

OK disagree with me, I can't force you to be right

That's got to be the USPS.
I live in the SF Bay area, but my packages come through the LA Sorting center (sometimes quickly, sometimes in limbo for a while).
You live in Az and yours came through SF. Sure, that makes sense if you are the USPS I guess.

i got the JH018 today it took 15 days 5 of those days were messaging btoc as at first he told me he did not have any jh018. i told him i wanted the jh018 or my $ back , not as big as i thought it would be, but that's ok. i try to get a video up later

if you look at where the water should go up into the bowl, at the bottom they closed down the return hole, it recycles but because that hole is so small i can not get it vortex.
top pic right about where the top of the lighter is, you can see it necked down

@GSH thanks! I hope they get in soon too. I want to review that planet rig for everyone :)

Haha right? I would think the item would just get sent from China to the huge sort facility they have in Phoenix but I guess USPS has their own version of logistics... :hmm:
 
:razz:

After reading this thread for a little while and having recently acquired a Solo, I finally placed a few orders on DHgate and AliExpress during the lasts few weeks.
I had never tried vaping with a water tool before that.
Today I received my very first order which was from SunshineStore, and I just had a my first ever water session.

Today, I vaped in this exact setting :razz:

Except it was whis a Solo.

PS: I am pretty much being this smiley ":razz:" right now, I don't know if I typed that well.
I was like, yeah its obvious youre enjoying your new toys as I myself stumbled through reading your post

AHA! I have been waiting for a report on this one. I came super close to ordering it when it first was posted. Shame about the size. I thought it would be bigger also.

Dabs are vapor too!

Dang, I didn't even know that one existed. I had read somewhere some pieces won't recycle because that hole is too big..........Looks nice - personally, I can live without vortex, as long as the recycling works ok. Looking forward to your video.

Thanks, I'm going to strike the JH018 off my list. I need to reduce my Gas anyways so I'm looking for easy excuses. :evil:

Was anyone able to wrangle a hitman knockoff funnel recycler away from Btoc?

Need to test some flowers from the Bay Area? Yes they were GSC original from the BAY Area!

Smooth and full of Flavor!
This cheap ash collector is not my best setup. It's a set up however I have a few that work much better. As a dabber it works better!

I find for the NANO I want no jug at all. I'll set up a different water unit after I recuperate somewhat!
