Cheap High Quality Bubbler

PALE BLUE DOT
No, currently a Grace Glass bubbler is my only one, after I broke my other piece which was a weedstar one. This cost about the equivalent of $80:



It's a good piece but I quite fancy the D020-D too (although like many would prefer a sidecar ver). DH Gate only recently seem to have put sensible prices on shipping to the UK (where I am) so i'll probably pull the trigger on the D... But, it'll have to wait until next month, I've already way overspent this month (2 x snappo's blanks, 3 x Ed's stems and an exotic E-nano).
Your piece is real nice.
I don't like a side car?
If we all liked the same we would be robots!

The D020 replaced my PNWT.
For the price serves a purpose.
The piece you have is a good piece.
Human wants are never satisfied!
The D020 is smaller than your piece.
You don't need it. If you were without glass then you need a D020 however your piece is pretty nice!

Bummer that some people have trouble with Kathy, but I just got an order from her on Tuesday that shipped the same day and arrived in 11 days. Got the inline to honeycomb bubbler and frit ashcatcher.
Kind of thought the bubbler would be bigger, but I should have looked closer at the pics on DHGate and looked at the size of the piece in relation to the size of the gong joints. Also the slits on the inline aren't centred and way closer to the front of the piece, but it was $40 so whatever.

It will.
That piece shouldhave a 24mm Joint in it, so all you'd need is either a 14mm GonG (Or Wooden) stem, or a stock stem with a little bit of silicone tubing or something over the end to help make a seal/protect the stem (I've shattered the top of a stock stem by using it directly in a 14mm gong joint, and it twisted a little bit or something, made the whole lip of the stem jagged :( the silicone will prevent this, and make a better seal)

Wow that is beautiful. Happen to have a ruler handy? Would love to know how big is the base, width of can, height of can, and height at mouthpiece. If its bigger than my GB-187 and hopefully more stable for my heavy cloud+ I might have to buy that

Nice purchase. How does it perform?
 
Radio,
I have the knockoff Mothership ballrig from Diamond Glass out of California and that's what they are copying. Its a horrible copy of a copy. It'd be nice to see them get that perfected,but seriously it sucks as of now

@Frederick McGuire
Did you receive that toilet seat perc recycler from CCG yet?
Nope.
*checks tracking*
It only left Beijing 3 days ago, so I'm thinking I'll get it sometime next week?

Just got shipping notice from kathy for my YQ-42 and ratchet recycler, got separate tracking numbers for each piece, so I'm assuming she had the YQ-42 in stock but is still waiting on the ratchet recyclers or something?

Well my order from sunshinestore randomly arrived today, though the tracking status still hasn't updated.

Just tried out the D022 and D020-2-W, both arrived well packaged with all parts included. I am really impressed with the D022, wasn't sure about the extra chamber on it but it adds to the diffusion nicely, this thing rips with my LSV.

The d020-2-w, I was a little underwhelmed, was smaller than expected and being my first piece with a male joint it just feels weird having to use the adapters (which were thick as btw, very nice for $4) still have to test water levels on this one but I don't think it'll get much use.

I felt the same way about the D020-2-w at first, but the piece has grown on me. It's nice that you can rip pretty hard and still get no water. And It actually works REALLY well with my Lotus vaporizer (which was very unexpected) - using a Female to Female adapter is handy to carb the piece and prevent ABV blowback IMO

Exactly, the D020-2-w has definitely grown on me. I like using the F-F adapter to clear as well since I usually have my Ophos sealed in the adapter with some tubing. Also once you dial in the water level, you can rip as hard as you want without worrying about taking a sip

Can you provide a link to Diamond Glass website or somewhere with information about this company. I cannot seem to find anything.

And half the pieces I have found look like china pieces with DG labels. Do these look familiar to anyone?

The bubbler functions pretty good, but might have too much diffusion. Have gotten a bit of water in my mouth a couple of times. I would love this if it were like 50% bigger, but currently prefer my old style D020-D. The frit ashcatcher stacks bubbles nice but pull too hard and you get water flowing into whatever it is plugged into. There also seems to be some drag so it can be hard not to pull too hard. I think paired with other percs it is too much diffusion. Will be interested to try it on its own once I get j-hooks.

Just made almost that exact order on Monday plus a 5 pack of j-hooks. Hope it gets here before labor day.

Ahh... that's how it fire's, couldn't get my head round it :clap: thanks.

Looks pretty neat.


With this in mind I wouldn't buy this piece, looks like he's sooo close to splashback every hit. maybe with a bigger can it'd be neat.. or the perc a little lower down.

So.....I just got this gizmo in the mail. I am a bit lost. How far do I fill up the water? What is the top dome things purpose? What is the little drtachable bowl under the mouthpiece for? Why did I spend twice as much on some acrylic garbage 10 years ago when somrthing this cool was avaliable? What is love? Baby dont hurt me. Where was I....right, need a lowdown.

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

I honestly don't know anything about them as a company. Boogerman told me they made quality glass so I jumped on it. The only people I kno with this particular piece is BAD ASS GLASS. I bought mine from GLASS PIPE MASTER, but it was the only one they had in stock. I own 9 China pieces and 17 American made pieces. I bought my first piece of glass this past Dec, and since then I've learned to tell the difference between American made and Chinese made. Trust me ,this Diamond piece is American made, or Chinese made to American standards.

base - 12cm dia/1cm thick

width of can - 6.5cm
height to mp - 30cm
18mm female joint

The one in the link I posted is slightly different to mine at the 18mm joint. Mine is flush with the top of the can, where the one in the link has a bit of a bottle-neck style joint on it (if you see what I mean)

@SSVUN~YAH I apologize for not being able to respond to your post sooner. I forgot a certain rule about talking about selling items. I appreciate how you look out for the safety of the community, however in the future if you have a problem with someone's behavior please PM them instead of making several public posts about them. I worked out the situation with the other party in private, and while nobody is owed an explanation of the situation I have done my part for the community and followed up in the negative feedback thread. If you have any other concerns regarding the situation I invite you to please PM me at any time. I am always willing to have the discussion.

To be clear, there is no group buy of chinese glass, nor was there ever intention of such a thing.

I apologize for the derailment and going back to old posts but I hoped to address this upon my return to FC as I can see many people here are invested in the sitaution too.

Soon I will follow up with posts of my latest haul from sunshine store, including some pieces which have quickly become some of my favorites. Namely the glorious D022 and the D020-2-W, both truly outstanding works of glass...
