Cheap High Quality Bubbler

I stumbled upon wholesalesglassstore, who happen to have a few attractive designs in their store that are particularly smaller than those I've seen. They look like they've been crafted pretty well!

Here are two I'm considering:

Not a lot of transactions yet, but they've had favorable reviews? Everything seems to be a gamble nowadays vendorwise.

Thanks but it looks like Ataxian puts MP on glass that has a joint for mating the MP to the piece. Sadly, I don't see anyway to make that happen easily on this bubbler.

The more I think about it, the more convinced that this happened during cooling and they won't make it good. I wasn't that upset before, but the more I think about it, the less charitable I feel toward Paramount.

I certainly won't recommend them and may even warn others off based on my experience.
I got this over a year or more ago?
FUCK is it good as in bad ass.

Cleaning this MF called a D022 from sunshine?
@CarolKing and a few have this one!
Made a new perk for it and reduced the mouthpiece opening.
Some like = BonG's
Some like = SMALL MOUTHPIECES?

Right? That one is spec'd as 2 inches tall! The orange fab egg is 15cm or about 5.9 inches tall, which has me drooling..

By the way, I messaged them for clarification and you get two of those tiiiny little rigs for $22 or something. I getting them for me and my roommate.

I just opened up http://www.dhgate.com/product/glass-bong-high-quality-water-oil-rig-11/393916078.html from Glassartist and wow its pretty amazing for $32 (still on sale) Its thick, heavy and well made. The vortex is on point too. If your on the fence, jump and buy it. I also asked to have it with no sandblasted logo in the comments. He replied that all they had was sand blasted logo but it did come with no logo. So that was a bonus for me.

OldOyler, got a link to this? I'm expecting my first vape to be delivered tomorrow - Firewood 4 - and this looks nearly perfect for it.

I quit smoking about 15 yrs ago and decided to 'pick it up again' for medical reasons late last year. So much has changed since then, especially with glass. Went into a head shop recently and thought I'd walking into a chemistry supply store. Still learning all the new terminology and devices. Things were so much simpler back in the day... :)

Don't sweat the small stuff.

JOINTS were my favorite before.
BonG's I never liked?
Smallmouth pieced water rigs seem to be the BEE'S KNEE'S = CIVILIZED

Welcome @FatOldEnt
Hope that your 'medical reasons' are not too severe and that, perhaps, there are some recreational reasons also.
I'm new(ish) here too but you'll find plenty of help and advice on this thread from more experienced FCers especially if you decide to dip a toe into the wonderful sea of Chinese glass. The water is warm and inviting but just watch out for the quicksand :uhoh:.

Thanks guys, I've been lurking here for a few months and that's what led me to getting the FW4. I def enjoy the other benefits but the pain relief (daily scoliosis and sciatic nerve pain) is the goal. I live in an illegal but decriminalized state and have kids, so I only smoke at night when they're asleep.

I'm interested in a small bubbler for the FW4 that I can set up, use for a quick session, clean and dry (for the most part), and hide away. Smell is a big concern and I keep my gear locked away in an airtight container. Any recommendations?

Many of us know how you feel. I didn't ever take a long break away but for years I used mostly glass spoons and simple old-style bongs now and then. Things have gotten a lot more complicated but the water tools have also massively improved. Vapor plus nice glass suited to your preferences improve on the old experience by a lot. You might benefit from checking out the Glass 101 thread for a primer on terms and perc-types, etc. here:

I was RECREATIONAL when I was a YOUNG GUN!
For me it's 100% MEDICAL these dayz!

D020 is a great starter BUBBLER.
D022 for a LOG. (I could be wrong however I like it?) sunshine store is safe.

PORTABLES = BUBBLER and small cans
LOGS = WATER pipes with a medium can
DESK TOPS = Whatever will handle

I have had 40 or more. (just saying!)

Find what set-up is best for your needs?

We can help you get directed?
It is up to you to figure out what works for your needs?

Thanks, I'll definitely be reading through the Glass 101 thread. I currently suffer from a different kind of VAS (Vinyl Acquisition Syndrome) but now I'm worried that I might eventually suffer from both kinds. Would that be Full-Spectrum VAS??

Whoa, 40+ glass pieces??? That's some bad GAS you've got there!

I'll show myself out now...

Yeah, it's definitely taken some getting used to. I've let it cool down to about the same feeling temperature as my 3mm banger and it didn't seem to retain as much heat as I thought. Granted, my old banger has been seasoned but they feel about the same temperature to me and I don't get as much smoke? I've been q-tipping it, so I torch it for a while since I can't see it even faintly glow orange. I get a better hit when it's hotter than I feel I'd like. Also, the clear joint was killing me when it would swing around while I tried q-tipping it. Last time getting any DHGate clear joint for me. Nothing really matters now though, since I broke the bubble cap tonight :bang::huh::wave:

I think I might just find the best wide dish 3mm banger vendor as well as a decent Toro Grail knockoff. That vendor topglass has a lot of nice bangers:


I can't see it glow at all either but I've come to a pretty good place now with the heat time/cooldown to get a pretty solid low temp hit. Also qtipping.

Only thing I don't like about it is the heating thing since I'm going through butane a lot faster now, might just need to invest in a bigger torch. I wouldn't be opposed to trying a good toro knockoff either though been curious about the slit design.

Yeah, I feel like I couldn't hit it as low as I usually could on regular bangers. And I definitely hear you on the butane waste - that dish is approaching 30mm! I got some regular 3mm XXL bangers from Beyond1688. Good review history!

I absolutely LOVE this, but trying to wrap my head around how it could be actually used. I guess the plan is to use with a banger, but it still seems like I would be going crosseyed trying to dab\cap. Shit, if you get 2 for 22 I may just order some and check it out.
Edit: If anyone can point me to a decent 10mm banger that would work with this I am ready to jump all over it.

I'm liking the coloured versions too

IMO of course but I don't understand the appeal of these über tiny rigs. They're not comfortable to use and not as portable as they seem by the time you add in a banger, torch, dabber, carb cap, etc. I remember using a micro rig with a ti nail before bangers were popular and it made me scared to even pick the damn thing up. Banger makes it way safer but I'd rather have the function of a larger piece. I see these functional Klein carb caps hashtag thousanddollarsmoke on Instagram and think they are silly. They're cool looking but I don't want to rip one.

I've had ~18 inch straight tube that I used with my underdog vape for a while. More recently it was used for combustion and so I am looking for something new. I know the d020 and d022 are very popular but I was wondering if you guys have any other favorites for use with a log vape? Thanks!

Whatever floats your raft?
The D022 is old school however works?
Some swear by the D020-9!

I have a UFO from FC (steven) might work?
