Yeah, the inner tube is full of water too and the vapor has to percolate down and then back up.

I think it’s almost like there’s a little bubbler that’s water cooled by the majority of the water that’s on the outside. It seems like that would maximize cooling while minimizing the total amount of water and surface area for condensation to occur. It could be in my head, but it think the vapor is as cool as a larger bong, while maintaining flavor like a small bubbler.

Anyone have any dealings with website: Greek Glass Shop?
The similar rig on the Calibear site is not in stock. Found this for $95, I want to try a recycler style, as well as a SOL perc., this has both. My preferred rig would be an “internal” recycler, but I don’t know what the difference is, other then the one glass pipe that goes outside the rig, then back into it?

I like that the website is honest about the source of the glass. While I can find similar rigs on DHGate, none have the SOL perc.

I've used them for reasonably priced import quartz bangers and sapphire pearls - they do some extra quality control once imported too, so IMO the bangers are more consistent than on DHgate. Quick shipping too. Though I haven't gotten glass, I recommend them for sure. I've heard good things from other people who ordered rigs from him though, and he seems to buy through Biao/mlglass and CCG/Calibear style seed of life percs.

I have gotten in the habit of filling the RC to the point where about 3/4 of the 45° air outlet is covered. I then tend to tilt the the piece forward a bit so the outlet is almost or completely covered. I want to be sure that the bubbles stack enough to keep the glass wet so that the CE in the water keeps the glass clean. Works very well...

I broke my popularglass/stevenlmz stereo-matrix a couple months ago and, in addition to ordering a replacement, I decided to upgrade. I'm not exactly sure where "cheap" ends, but after months of watching Instagram (@designersci) for a drop I managed to grab a Designer Sci Gridded Inline Bent Neck for 180 shipped (150 if you could pick it up in person). They do scientific glass, occasionally with some colored work (runs into the $400 range). They used to do custom pieces but now it seems they became popular and they are focused on wholesale orders from shops.
This is probably superfluous, but for some background - when I was younger (16-22) I bought and used American glass, I had a few Sky Glass, JBD and Phire pieces. After breaking like 750$ worth of my own US glass I decided to treat glass like a consumable and started buying import glass.
After I broke my stereo-matrix I decided to look around for some reasonably priced US stuff and I finally found Designer Sci like 6 months ago. Unfortunately, it was sold out everywhere. So I decided make a blank IG account to follow them on instagram, I missed the last drop in June I think and it all sold out pretty quick. Fast Forward to last week, the company made a post saying where the next drop was going and I DMd the shop like 24 hours after the drop and there were only 2 of the bent necks that I was looking for left so I immediately jumped on one of them. Paid by Venmo on Wednesday (kinda sketchy w/ no buyer protection but it was a brick and mortar store in Nebraska and Designer Sci promoted them so I was trusting) and it was shipped USPS Thursday and arrived Monday.
Anyways, this thing is exactly what I was looking for to use with my flowerpots. It is a very similar layout to the stereo-matrix but the joints are straighter, welds prettier, the diffusion is way more consistent and there don't seem to be thin spots like there are on the China glass.
I will have to post again when I can take a flowerpot rip out of it. I've been visiting my parents in MD for a couple months now to help around the house during the second wave of covid and all my vapes/flower is back in CO. I am surviving on concentrates and my DTV4
TL;DR - Got a new piece from Designer Sci for 180$ shipped. It is a high quality piece for a reasonable price, but you kind of have to watch Instagram to get your hands on one. I definitely recommend them though.

I haven’t followed this thread in a while, but I know a lot of people have gotten increasingly nice glass from China. I have always bought US stuff and have a great collection. Right now I’m looking for some nice, cheap items for my store.
I plan on reading through the thread and figuring out how to buy some nice items, maybe bubblers, bongs, etc. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I’d love to hear it. This thread is huge now, so any help would be great!

Rattle Cans are great, all the DHGate versions except the 14mm Male jointed version are great.
Don't try to save a few bucks by getting this one,
All other Rattle Cans from,
and from,
are great.
CCG have some nicer stuff with US stock too, not as cheap as some though,

Looking to buy my FIRST Recycler rig.
Is there any FUNCTIONAL difference between the EXTERIOR versus the INTERNAL versions. Examples above, thanks.

I find no functional difference. But the klein allows you to get most of the water out whereas the incycler can be more difficult to get all the water out depending on how close the holes are to the top of the can.

Thank you for your help. I’ll order the Klein model then.
DHGate RATTLECAN UPDATE: I wrote Steven of Popular Glass, on the DHGATE site you can send messages to the vendor, and though it says you can “attach photos”, there was NO way I could find to do that. With back and forth with some rep., I had to leave my email address, and I was then contacted, and sent the same photos I posted a few posts back in this thread, showing how bad the glass joints were and misaligned. Low cost aside, it looked like beginners workmanship. I figured it’s best to follow up, otherwise the quality level we accept just gets lower and lower. While my Rattlecan is ugly, it’s functional, and I have no plans on shipping a $50 rig back to China.
I’ll report back here, if I ever hear back!

Thanks! I used to post here all the time and I forgot how helpful this community is! I am looking for something cheap, but nice that I can add to my site. Something that compliments my slide stands and hippie T-shirt business

Greek Glass is giving away (ends Sunday) one of these kleins on IG. Follow him and enter if you are feelin lucky...
So I've been waiting for almost 2 months for my TinyMight to ship and I think it's finally almost time. I'm looking for two good pieces to use with it(eventually, after DHL shipping times ) with a WPA. Anyone have any suggestions?
I'm looking at probably a rattle can(if someone thinks one is better than the others that'd be good to know), and maybe a torus/klein/matrix sidecar or something like that. Here's a few I've looked at so far, if anyone has some input it would be greatly appreciated, especially if you use it with a Tinymight! I currently own a crappy like $30 beaker bong I got from a head shop, and I don't know a ton about bubblers, so if any of these are a bad decision I would love to know!

Has anyone tried these?
Popular Glass Gooseneck for a tabletop sitter or Dalek shape from the same seller or Yinmin5 for holding onto/sitting in a recliner...just steer clear of the 14mm male joint version.
I was talking about the 14mm male rattlecan just a few posts earlier... nothing wrong with it, just smaller and perhaps thinner glass . Not that great for taking big hits off flowers but is more than fine for low temperature dabs IMO.
Anyway- folks, I am desperate, someone please advise. I cannot stop looking at this. Cannot find american-made without logo... Are these as good as they look????

That mouthpiece also looks very fragile on the 14mm version compared to the other options that are now available, I just wanted to make sure @Kavix0 did not make the same mistake of getting the oldest least desirable version as he did ask for what we thought about the different models.

That's Biao's copy of the BearMountainStudios RBR recycler. If you want American made - you'll have to hunt down one of Evan's pieces and they sell fast. He just did a drop in Hawaii of 90 pieces that sould out in less than 10 minutes. You can get Biao's copy from him on instagram (@biao.t) for less than 50 bucks usually and he does customs also. The real deal (clear) starts at 500 bucks and goes up from there. Evan's have savage function and I've seen some reasonable videos of Biao's - but I've also seen some from Biao that are more of a straw than recycler.

Are there elev8 RBR American made? They're only like 110 last time that I checked
bizwaxzion
Enigmatic Cannabist
Good question - I can't find a statement on the website that says it's American made - but they sort of imply it. They have a very impressive list of 'Artists' - but the function of the drain on that Elev8 piece doesnt mimic the real RBR.
