Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Plan on purchasing a CFX with WPA, and I'm looking for the right piece for it. I've lurked this thread for about a week now, and still unable to find the bubbler I'm looking for. I prefer a smaller piece with minimal diffusion, as I prefer the flavor over smoothness. I also don't want the vapor to travel far to get into my lungs.
I'm considering the vortex recycler from CGC with an adapter, however I don't have any experience with recyclers, incyclers, etc, so I don't know if it's too much for the CFX. I prefer bent necks over a straight tube, and nothing will colored glass.

Any and all assistance and recommendations based on your experience would be most welcome.
I'd say to start go on Dhgate and search for the D20 bubbler , that should be a great starter piece and has been very popular around here. It is def a good size for the Cfx and very inexpensive , after you get it than start researching other glass. You cant go wrong with a D20 and it is a good entry point to start building a glass collection that wont break the bank.

The D020 is a great starter piece.
CHEAPER than H2O!

I've actually owned quite a large amount of glass in my life, just get bored and sell them after a while (or break them). I've owned the Mobius Ion bubbler with the Reti perc, which is the perc in the D20, so I'm thinking of going with something different. I've owned tree, showerhead, inline, and stemline bubblers. I did purchase a mini peyote perc bub from Steven on DHGate and was pleased with his work, so I may look to him again.

@mrbonsai420 - Where did THAT come from? The coral at the bottom is mesmerizing!
No way that's from China, or cheap. Still, the tentacle dabber is pretty awesome.


Haha, sorry for the tease, no it isn't Chinese, or cheap, or a bubbler really :doh: But it was the only basic recycler that style that I own to show. It's from Johnny Landini glass blowing and yeah, my girlfriend gave it to me and it's my favorite! The coral is also UV reactive coral and Octopus eyes are tight! It matches my collection of non functional sea glass (Coral Reef marbles, jellyfish paperweights, et.)

Hey cool that's the piece I was trying to tell you about..you can ust the j hook with it..that Johor is huge by the way!!

Ya, sorry about that, meant to log in and tell you it's the FC-Mod by StevenLMZ I just had gotten mine and used it with Steven's Taurus and then just stopped everythign I was doing. The FC Mod should be the piece we recommend first since not only is it a great for bubbling it's also good to use to add on to itself again or other pieces if you want smoother hits.

My second dcycler cleared customs woohoo. I'll be glad to own two, I love it way more than the smaller old one. That was frustrating I have had several things inspected but never had anything sent back.

Also, I made a custom padded base for it so I don't need trivets to set it on anymore.
I made a thread over here with a couple more pics http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/3d-printed-a-base-for-my-bubbler.22535/

You already posted it..i was referring to your picture with the removeable mp but also a male joint underneat where u can use the whole bong as a ashcatcher or add a jhook..he mentioned the fc mod which is a different piece.

First glass piece to go with my Haze V3. Should I get a D020 or FC187. Which adapter would be recommended? D020 from Sunshine Store includes the adapter. Do you insert a whip into the adapter to use the Haze?

someone on the HASE site should help with that? D020 is a good start.

It you have brand new lungs maybe the FC187 however the D020 is easier!
@CarolKing can you help this guy?

I think the FC-187 is better than the D020.
Looks better, better size can, better size mouthpiece, nicer functioning perc.
The D020 is very similar, but between them I like the experience with the sidecar matrix a whole lot more.

I'm unsure on adapters for the Haze, though I would recommend a direct connection over a whip.

Maggie, try using the metal stem included with the Haze. You should be able to push that into my Silicone adapter. Don't worry - the silicone is very pliable. Those other pictures show various e-cigarettes inserted into the flexible mouthpiece.

Here's a picture of the Haze V2.5 connected to the small Nu-SonG (which if memory serves me is the adapter you purchased)

Got my Hitman mini orb recycler from glassartist today. Smaller than I thought, and a total flavor saver! Quality work! Doesn't feel too thin. Real decent replica. I test-drove her a few times and she's perfect for lunch-time dabs. Really been pleased with this seller! I wish they'd do more smaller pieces like this. Some of their designs are a little off but the wealth of Hitman replicas they have really piqued my interest.

So over my time here in the last nearly 2 years now (OMG has it been that long?!) I've probably bought around 25 pieces for myself and the current two in my rotation are the FC-710 and that little 4" thick glass bubbler piece with the holes in it that everyone likes. There's maybe another 3-4 that I use semi-regularly but the rest mostly sit around waiting to be sold or given away to a local. [No plans to sell them here so don't ask] At least 5 of them have poor function for various reasons and will probably just be tossed. A few were more for vape use which I seldom do anymore and I've switched to proper low temp dabbing so short vapor path tools are best to retain flavour. I may actually try getting the BatesXWormXGrav Diffusion Pump since I like the design better than the original and it's more similar to the FC-710 but with hopefully better workmanship (mine came with a crack in the tube though it's still intact). I can get that one for $190CAN which seems reasonable.

I'm also still checking the thread and keeping my eye out for gems though, China keeps surprising me at what they can put out. I remember 1.5 years ago fab eggs were considered too hard to make for less than $100 and then they blew straight past that to some much more intricate stuff pretty damn quickly. Some of them even work well. But barring something cool to my liking I think my GAS tank is on low for now after trying ALL THE BONGS! But I know what I like now a lot better and I have some quality pieces so I can afford to be a lot more picky with new stuff now.

Oh and in case people were wondering, last I heard was that @blankrider , who really got the ball rolling on the custom glass front here and is why the FC-710 exists in the first place, had gotten into custom spinning glass tops and is no doubt terrorizing people on whatever forums they have for that sort of thing :rofl:

D020 for portables.
I have the D series and they are good for portables. ASH COLLECTOR adds volume.
FC series I have almost all of them. (logs)
HYDROTUBES I have made in CALIFORNIA. (better seal)

I really don't need any more glass.
I bought an RBT Milaana for use as a cordless log, intending to use it through water, but it just doesn't need water as even BIG hits are smooth.
And tasty too without water.

I have Dynavap VapCaps which also work great without H2O, but can likewise produce great results through bubblers.

The Grasshopper on the other hand is too harsh to use for big, high temp' hits without water, so GAS has struck despite already having a D020-D and a Weed Star Double Bubble.

I liked the look of the MK II diffusion pump, but don't think it's in production yet, am I right?

The other two pieces that I'm tempted by are:

And:

Weed Star describe 'The Highlander' (1st one)as having a 'cut disc diffuser ' perc, and the 'Smoky Poky Returns'' (2nd) as having a 'cutter' perc'.

I believe both are the same 'Tornado' style perc' which creates a funnel of water by spinning the can contents.

I've never tried this style of perc' and wonder which end of the 'chug - froth' spectrum this style of diffuser inhabits.
Are they high or low diffusion devices?
I'd prefer fairly low diffusion, as both of my existing pieces are quite high, and rob quite a lot of flavour.

Are these 'cut disc' perc's much good FC?
Your opinions will be most welcome :hmm:

Edit:
This will be a vapour rig only (some dabbing, but my focus will be flower vaping), because, Fuck Combustion!

Hi, does anybody have experiences with the V2 FC-UFO and the SL 15058 from Stevenlmz79 on dhgate?
I like the multifunctionality of the V2 FC-UFO. But does it work well?

Just waiting for delivery of the Moebius Matrix Sidecar (FC 187) and the FC-186 from him. Hope it was a good deal!?

I think all of those turbine/cutter/tornado percs will offer only a little diffusion so it might be just what you're looking for.

Thanks for your thoughts :cheers:
If you've tried this type of perc' can you comment on whether they're 'chuggy' or smooth draws?
