@ataxian how do you like this piece? Looks pretty sturdy. Hit nice?
This is from KATHY and I use this one the most. It tornadoes real well plus since I like the small mouth piece of the SHERLOCK (JHOOK) it pairs well with this ash catch collector.
I know a lot of people like the bigger water pieces however I am a siper.
I use a NANO, SOLO or LOTUS with this setup. I like all the pieces I have however I use this one the most!

Pretty cheap as well.

That's not why I like it!

Yeah I was afraid if that, just a little bit too close it looks like. I don't think itd make sense to give up the T for the D if I can't still use the honeycomb AC with it, unless I get a separate j hook for it on its own... Damn GAS setting in, at least it'll ease the VAS? If only...

Anybody tried somethog like this with the honeycomb AC?

And anyone see anything like this cheaper on dhgate or ali? I'd rather spend like 15 but do prefer this style because it puts the mouthpiece higher up than the sunshine store j-hooks for example (and I don't want 5)...

Get it! If I did not have so much stuff I would pull the trigger.
I bought the 5 units on dhgate because their so cheap however work really well. I use them more than a SOLO stem.

HAMSTER STYLE!
seems a little excessive for shipping, is this similar to other's experiences with Sunshinestore?
Not really too excessive!
The package will be well wrapped and the pieces will medicate you!
See this post, it worked for me.
Good call!

I have that same Jhook and a honeycomb AC that I got from Bake Bros on iOffer for $61 shipping included. Works great with the Banger and my Persei/KISS, especially with some water in the Jhook.

I have my eye on the D020-Q

However my first cheap $22 delivered bubbler (D020) is still the best bang for the buck!

It doesn't swirl however with a ash collector that does makes it a fabulous experience!

Start cheap then add more.

Some of the nail rigs are pretty small.
I find them a waste of $.
I use the D type bubblers for SHATTER/NAIL medication.

I haven't use my expensive glass pieces since I got the cheap stuff!

You can spread you $ around with cheap glass!

This is a tiny piece of my glass stuff.
The more you have the more to clean.

My first recycler was this piece, although it has a base besides that it is basically identical. You will not get a vortex, but a small whirlpool effect can be produced. I snatched it up for a bit over a hundo several months ago at my LHS. GBS sells them for $130 with nail, slide, dabber and dome. IMHO I think you may be better off to save your money get a better recycler with a good vortex. :2c::peace:

Thanks for the heads up.

I have an Everest Glassworks recycler but it wasnt cheap so I havent posted about it here. Its an inverted 16 arm tree perc with a second ratchet perc. Its an amazing piece but Im always looking for something cheaper.

After what happened to my Mobius, Im scared to break out any of my high end stuff. I did find out today that the guy that started SYN has a shop here now so I may try to get the Mobius over to him and get him to fix it.

Good luck! ;)

In other news, just got a refund on my knock off PNWT tubes by Sunshinestore via Aliexpress. One had loads of bubbles on the surface, some of them allready popped. This resulted in sharp edges and a generall rough feel of the surface. Never even gave it a try. The other one just fires right into your mouth, no matter how much water you put in there.

Chatted Mike up via AliExpress before, he asked me to dispute the order and got my refund accepted 5 minutes later. Excellent Customer service, will buy from the again.

Honeycomb. It looks like they put a honeycomb right beneath the mouthpiece, chances are this will result in bubbles stacking all the way up the mouthpiece.

Not that it was the intent, but I've seen percs that high up when they're acting more as a splashguard? I might try underfilling the piece and slowly adding water until the stacking gets out of hand, then backing off some. It would be cool to see that piece get functional. It's got cool visuals.

Point taken, that is IF the thing we see right under the HC isn't the regular perc. Hard to tell by this picture. Looks pretty, can't argue that. I really hope it turns out a winner, even with the usual european shipping rip-off it's around 50 bucks. I think I could budget that... :D

I think the PNWT is one of the biggest design blunders of the water piece movement!
Regardless of the glass quality.
I'm sure there are some who love it?
You are fortunate to get out of that mess!

If it was free I would throw it away to make more room for something I use!

Never been a fan of the hydratube concept to beginn with and can't compare it to the original, but the chinese knock offs are really useless. There is no way to hit that thing without getting the upper chamber filled with water. At least the one I tried, didn't try that other jagged mess of air inclusions I got.

Even a high end one does the same.
Very lame call to mass produce such a piece?
Looks good on paper I guess?

I have the same knock off PNWT and in my case it is useless with my MV. I tryed a few times but always I finish with my mouth with water, and the silicone cone dosen't fit with the MV and I need to use an adaptor but it loose a lot of practicity.
