Cheap High Quality Bubbler

No, I don't count the Hemping pieces as my "Cheap Chinese" stuff. They are really nice actually. I only kept one of each color klein anyway and those will always stay in the collection. I was just getting rid of my "Clone" stuff since I usually use either my genuine Hydratubes or US made scientific bubblers with my vapes. And either Hemping or US heady glass for my enail and dabs. So I am just giving away or selling most of the clear Chinese rigs.

I'm thinking of getting this next. Did you only get klein's or have you tried something like this? Where would you recommend getting this from so that it's functioning at its best? I only know of StevenLMZ for something like this or cleanclearglass

I must have GAS because all I can see is a UV version of that TAG rig you posted. Don't know why that hadn't occurred to me, go even smaller for the log vape. That actually sounds better to me. I need to get another log now though, so that first.

3-5 weeks shipping time. They're getting it from china. I wonder if some seller would be willing to put it up on dhgate.

That external diffusion pump recycler looks perfect. I want one.

Also, that website is so badly, pretentiously, designed. Feels silly to try to navigate it. Would it kill them to have proper categories and search filters? Or is that too cluttered for their minimalistic 'modern' design? Ugh.

Fire it again. I can still find the ground.

Peace bud!

Well yes, yes it is. But yours is fancier than mine...must be how you roll out there... :tup:

Here is my current "high-end" rig (for now, but DNail sooooon), I have a full metal hitter on a vv pen for backup... But new Esposito on the way should fancy me right up in the meantime!

Till then...my preciooouss...

I'm new to FC and have been reading this thread as much as possible.

I currently use an arizer solo and DBV both hooked up to an f-bomb micro bubbler and would like something a bit more like a bong.

Would something like this be suitable? http://vapefiend.co.uk/the-honey

Or should I look for something like this mentioned earlier in the thread? http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/advance-booking-2015-new-high-quality-glass/218126546.html
Peace friend!

Just imo, the latter.

That's pretty sweet looking. If it's pyrex? Heck yeah!!!

:tup:

Peace ramram!

I liked the pics of that gridded stemline when it popped up in the thread. It's probably super low resistance on the drag.

I loved a matrix perc I got from china in some hitman knockoff. Eventually traded it to a buddy, but those low drag hits are the best. Dab or Vape. Just be sure you don't expend all your lung power in the first few seconds. That can happen. The only way you can fuck up is if you decide you're going to suck as hard as possible. Sip like on a straw and it just goes smoothly.

If you get that low drag piece that is.

Peace all!

Just wanted to throw a US company in the mix for anyone like me - whose wife said "no" to opening up any of our credit cards for international orders.

The name almost made me ignore it in a google search - it's 420elite.com and let me get this out of the way.

I don't work for them, shill for them or anyone, and if they said "Thanks for the mention, it got us business, here's glass" I would tell them no, to put it on FC under a contest to get people jazzed. Because I really am. Okay cool, I just know that kind of stuff makes *me* nervous.

My biggest worry was that our thread includes the word "cheap". I posted it before, I bought a nice Esposito barrel perc from them that will be here later this week for like $40 (will post pics upon arrival...and testing...).

So their "under $50" range is okay, somewhat limited I suppose. Their $50-100 I consider spectacular, and I have like 4 pieces picked out.

I have been using what I originally wanted for glass as a price gauge for US glass websites - "Mobius Matrix Sidecar", they carry it for $74.99, which isn't awful for a US price. (Most were running in the hundreds, dudes I don't want your glass, I want whatever the frack you're vaping!)

BUT, it seems their focus is "non-name brand", i.e. - glass handmade by independent artists. They say. And a good bit of it pyrex.

Three quick examples that I like from them:

For $35 and at least pyrex: https://www.420elite.com/collection...ducts/grand-daddy-percolator-glass-water-pipe

For $60, nice & tight, tall at 10" though, pyrex: https://www.420elite.com/collection.../tweety-bird-cage-percolator-glass-water-pipe

For $80, I love it, pyrex as well: https://www.420elite.com/collection...products/connor4576-recycler-glass-percolator

EDIT: Oh, and free 10-14 day shipping.

Peace all, and not trying to ruffle feathers or be pointing at too high a price of glass for the thread.

:peace:

Anything works!

Low volume = portable
Med volume = Log
Low - High = DESK TOP

WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR RAFT = CIVILIZED

Seems like an okay site with reasonable prices but just to make things clear this is all Chinese glass.

Nothing here that would make me ditch DHGate.

I am a relative newbie to glass so maybe I am wrong.

Peace George!

No, you are not wrong. :)

I posted it for folks like myself - dhgate required us to open our cc's through our bank to int'l orders, wife didn't want to do that. I *would* probably have used dhgate right away for a Mobius Matrix sidecar otherwise (and not have found the 420elite site, found them by repeatedly and desperately google searching the Mobius piece for sale on a US-based site).

There are some other hoops I think we could use there at dhgate, like Western Union, but that's when my wife raises an eyebrow.

So, I was only talking "US-company to US-customer based" I guess to be specific.

(I appreciate the heads up on the glass source. That's only supposed to be the case for the name-brands. Screw it, I'm going to ask them!):tup:

Peace and good things to you!

Hell hath no fury like a mother scorned, I suppose.

I would try using a disposable credit card number, see if your bank does those. They are one time transaction numbers given for the use of online shopping. I think they just make a whole nother card out of thin air for a few days.

I've heard of that but never used it. Better than overpaying for china glass just because it's in the states. And even then, with free 10-14 day shipping I doubt they are in the states. USPS usually has a turnaround from NY to CA of like 5-10 days for me. Florida is even faster. Colorado, Two days. So I wonder where they are shipping from.

I'll keep an eye out when it arrives for where it was shipped from.

Lots of good info coming my way from this. I love FC - I meant to be helpful by posting, and got *more* help in return!

It's like having some family watching my back in the glass world.

:peace:

Thanks, and peace!

I recommend the 8 inch Taurus from Steven lmz.
Recycler will mean less chance of splash back and 14mm opening for your gh. Also little water for saving the flavor.

I don't own this piece full disclosure.
