Got em!!! OK all is good EXCEPT, I'm not liking the tornado rig, I just got done testing w/water and TBH its not for me, built well and with out a mark or a defect. The rig has too much water for my taste:\

AND the GB 187 IS THE PRIZE smooth as a baby's ass to hit and built well.Yes there are some imperfections like the intake not being in the cntr of the can, one tooling mark, but other than that its awesome and works great!:tup:


wow mod sure shortened my post. OK I get it. my bad. funny !! I feel as if a ghost tried to pluke me.
Didnt know you cant try to sell a piece here,have to go to classifieds. I owe you one:goon:

I figured I need to make another order because the Kathy piece will probably take a month to show up...it'll make for a nice surprise (hopefully) when I do receive it, however for the time being I'd like something sooner. How fast does Sunshinestore deliver? Less then a week I read?

@SunnyHours - you should definitely check out the jhanpixel UFO sidecar. Have had one for a few months and love it. Don't know about him using Chinese glass stock as someone mentioned above. Do know mine is nice and heavy and the work is much better than my Chinese pieces.

You do pay for the quality and the larger size piece. Think it is still $150 with free s&h, but worth every penny of it IMO.

His work is great. I have 3 from him including the UFO side car. He uses Schott and or Simax and is an awesome artist. His art can easily sell for 3-4x the amount and even more. The LHS in my area sells the import for 3x the amount, he would want yur 1st born if he sold J.Pixels art. .I will tell you this, that a lot of Sunshines store stuff is vey nice as well as Yingman5's glass.That GB187 is built heavy and sweet.Im reading that some even got into a debate about knock off vs real deal with that model. Got mine today and I can tell you,a great rig and I almost forgot, LESS THAN 50 BUCKS TO THE DOOR!! :tup:

i don't think the JH018 is made correctly
1st video shows a high water level so that you can see the water going up the drain when i pull


next 2 videos show different water level but still pulling up the drain, but less


last video is where, in my opinion, is where the water level is ok as it is very slightly pulling up the drain


imo i think they made the prec to low on the stem as it is almost even with the return
and the drain hole needs to be bigger

need any other pics or video just ask

Hi all - its Jhan, and i'll be glad to answer any questions or concerns.

i'll try to visit often and keep everyone well informed so that you may make the best choice.

regarding our raw material - we use chinese borosilicate we have used Schott and Simax and have found the High Quality Chinese Boro to be very comparable to the schott are far as clarity.


As for fellow FC members, i'd like to offer a 10% discount on items over $100
just mention FC and make an offer and we will honor it.

thank you all -

peace

I'm just repeating what I read, also I have only heard good feedback about JP's stuff. If I was looking in that price range he would be a top contender.

Thanks for putting up all those videos! Sorry it's not working out for you, it sure looks cool. Honestly, I wouldn't care if there is some "updraft" into the recycler before you start a good pull, but that's me. Also, I would try it with an even lower water level, like 1/2" over the diffie. If you can pull as hard as you want and get no bubbles, the recycler's doing it's job. I just checked my cheapo little Kathy recycler, and it pulls up into the recycle chamber a bit too, before it gets going.

Hmm, not getting much into the recycle chamber that way, but what do you think? Do you like the pull? That would be an oil rig for me, how do you use it? I notice it comes with a "one hitter" type bowl.
Click to expand...

it will be an oil rig, and I'll get a drop-down so i can use with my e-nail
i just made 2 more videos
one with the water level just under the tube that goes into the can



and one a little bit higher and i think i like this level best, and it pulls much better and even recycles a little

The first video/2nd pull, it looks to vortex a little at the end. How is it with the water that high? Mine has a noticeable difference in pull difficulty with more water.

yes more water = pull difficulty
where the water level is at in the mvi 1370 video i can "snort" the pull it's that easy
i made up a gas mask with an adapter that allows me to do a pull,
breathing thru my nose, it's quite the headrush
am i weird, YES

How hard is it to clean some of these more intricate pieces? I wanna get the double barrel from kathy or the WP-1095 from sunshinestore but my OCD worries how easy it cleans and if there will be any spots that just wont get clean.

I was afraid that would be the case with the JH018. Thanks for pulling the trigger and being the test dummy for everyone else!

Now does anyone want to buy the JH017 and test it out for everyone lol?

I think this one will function a lot better since it is a knock off of the Hitman to Funnel Recycler :D I would be the test dummy but I am saving up for a few other items first :tup:

Being Canadian it's not like I'd ever get free shipping :rofl:
I've never broke an expensive piece yet (knock on wood) so If I had the money I'd go for the JPixel, it looks like beautiful glass!
For now though, until I find a style of bubbler I really like. Then I'll be able to satisfy my OCD for perfect glass once I know what I like...can't quite place the member who said that, but I like it!

Comes down to under 120$CDN shipped EMS for a D020, a D021, a Pinnacle Pro and a glass dish.
That way I'll have some sweet glass I can bring to parties or hiking without risking a couple 100$ bills.

I think my Glass Acquisition Syndrome is coming back :cuss:... I was in remission for like 2 years. Vaping brought back the G.A.S. It seems to have evolved a bit. I was mostly into large bongs with crazy filtration. The mutation appears to have been induced by the flow of new bubblers on the market :p

On a side note I think my SSV is getting delivered tomorrow! I think there's gonna be a hell of a lot of vaping going on tomorrow :o:ko:
National Holiday next week and my birthday the week after! :rockon:

I've started to get mesmerized by glass now and can think of nothing better than a fat (wide) bubbler or bong to take dabs off of.

I would prefer if it was one piece. I've already been searching the DH stores and found something but would like to see more variety to select from.

I'll keep searching but if any of you know of a wide bottom bubbler that's of medium'ish size and goes for under 40 let me know please.

This one is nice and I like the honey comb thing. I've not tried out the various types (recyclers, percolators, honeycombs, fritted discs, etc) so your opinions on this issue would be very helpful in deciding. Which one gives you a smoother hit? (by that I mean low resistance/drag) and which one feels the most airy?

But here it is.

I really would have preferred the wide bottom to be part of the water chamber. Once full it's heavier and I wouldn't have many fears of it being tipped over.

This other one looks nice and I think I'm favoring this one. But I want to hear your replies on which type of system (perc, recyc, etc) is better. I'm also thinking of using cold water in it. Are there any unforeseen downsides to this?

This one looks very nice and is a few bucks over budget but I can manage at 44. It has double percs and an ice catcher. Which is good since I prefer cooler hits. My first bong had an ice catcher and I learned to love it until it broke. I haven't owned a glass piece since (4 years later) and am looking now.

So I look forward to your replies and thank you. I really want to find a glass piece that will provide what I need. If you've seen something that fits it please recommend it to me!

Sorry if this is annoying to some of you guys. I thought it would also be good to document in case someone had the same needs.
