Yep... especially once you've locked into your favorite vapes. GAS will be on you like stink on shit! I think we may need to start a support group or something.
Exactly right, I think I have the vapes covered now 100% of the paraphernalia budget can go to glass! lol
It's really funny, I had been a daily smoker for 25 years, but only owned 1 bong at a time! first a Graphix acrylic (Old School!) then a simple glass Blackleaf tube. I mainly rolled joints and hit my little metal bat pinch hitter for 20 years straight.
I had a few vapes but still smoked daily. Then I got the underdog and Haze and was able to quit smoking all together then... That's when the gas started for small bubblers. I was attracted to mostly clear scientific pieces. Then I got an Enail and a Liger and I got the GaS for dab rigs! These stay out on my table a good bit so my girl got me my first custom piece from Johnny Landini, The octocycler! and now I am drooling all over the colored US stuff! I really want some of the big name Mothership, Hondo,Scoz, Evol, and sagan glass for real! but those are all thousands each so I am happy to find any cool colored glass for a decent price.
So now that I vape my 1 bong has turned into 25-30 and counting fast. I rotate them out and only keep 2 or 3 out at a time for use. Right now I have the Hemping Mai Tai Straight fab on the Enail with the Liger. My Cool colored downstem Glassmandoll bubbler for the Evo. And a turbine hydratube in the bedroom with my Divine tribe V3. I have to keep myself from buying any more little bubblers but I find myself wanting one in every style with every perc and if it has a removable mouthpiece , well that makes it even harder to resist! But I am trying to use the bulk of my glass budget for slightly higher end pieces instead of sub $50 DH Gate Pieces.
Current Lineup - Glassmandoll bubbler from ETSY back in the day. Great size, nice sipper mouthpiece and a beautifully flame polished showerhead perc and a cool marble as a bonus
The Mai tai straight fab with Liger V3 and Sappire insert!
The Turbine on Divine Tribe V3, The v3 fits 18mm without an adapter which is cool.
The backups waiting on their turn in rotation.
And if they are nice enough (Like the Landini Octocycler in the last pic) They can stay out on display all the time!
