Cheap High Quality Bubbler

[cybrguy]

YEAH BUDDY!! many thanks to all of us who dig and dig and find these rigs .Heres a fav and be sure to check out the # on it. We are fortunate and smart consumers on FC. Like I have mentioned before,its nice to cut out the many middle peeps and enjoy our legwork and enthusiasm for this fun-ctional art @ great prices ..........

http://smokecartel.com/products/turbine-cyclone-perculator-water-pipe there are also some other cool designs, be sure to look at prices, some are respectable for the rig and some others are ...meh.......

The price on the "Smokenado" doesn't surprise me, it's about what I would expect. BUT, their NAME wins. This piece is forever the SMOKENADO to me.

I know you can get their stuff from a variety of different vendors, but I do really like that SmokeCartel.com will do custom sandblast or decals for personalization.

PBW is great stuff, I just find not all pieces require it (particularly on my vape pieces that have never seen combustion).

100% ON THAT Flyinglow,I get away using super hot tap water (got my water heater jacked up a bit more on temps) and dawn dish washing soap. Even when I occasionally put road materials in my lung and 1/2, I use a charcoal filter and the pipe still cleans up real nice w/ the same method.The filter is a bit tuffer so I use a home depot orange cleaner and BAM done.Vaping doesnt seem to booger up at all,doing dabs I could see,but vapor with NACE no muss no fuss...others YMMV

 

[FlyingLow]

...my bubs also has removable downstem and mouthpiece, making access and cleaning a snap

Damn Ssvun,
How do you do it? Yu have a very creative mind and are super resourceful. Props to our man Ssvun~Yah, One of the many OG pioneers who brought this thread to its notoriety . This item is just so slick, I sometimes put a small LED flash light along side the can and when evening rolls around I'll get baked and mesmerize myself watching the illuminated glow of dancing bubbles in the mirror. To be able to illuminate from below is epic bro, we need to give you an honorary medal as the glass scientist of FC !! ATTENTION ON DECK !! ALL rise & LIFT up your vapes and rigs and HAIL SsVUN~YAH!!As always big bro,GOOD LOOKING OUT, I might buy the 6 pack of the little ones for 12 bucks I think, there are so many options here and nothing that would break the bank

Thanks! The flashlight is what gave me the idea so I shopped DH and AE first but when I saw these I thought, that's it! No medals needed, bc this is a team effort and you have contributed greatly, as well. I just wish I could give wonderful reviews like Jam, FMac, BoogerMan, Tweak and Deadshort but sadly not yet for me. Members like diehard, mr. Gweilo, oli, Herr_D, Dangus, Ataxian and Mister G have done an amazing job at keeping us abreast of new pipes, lately. I know I'm leaving a bunch of contributors out too.

100% ON THAT Flyinglow,I get a way from super hot tap water (got my water heater jacked up a bit more on temps) and dawn dish washing soap. Even when i occasionally put road materials in my lung and 1/2, I use a charcoal filter and the pipe still cleans up real nice w/ the same method.The filter is a bit tuffer so I use a home depot orange cleaner and BAM done.Vaping doesnt seem to booger up at all,doing dabs I could see,but vapor with NACE no muss no fuss...others YMMV

I have been noticing my pieces tending to get a bit foggy above the water line. Not a big deal to clean up with PBW or ISO, but I'm waiting for some CE from BC to see how it works. I was headed towards Rez Block until I read the thread about it and decided to try the Cranberry Extract. That should make it reasonable enough to use all the time. Rez Block was gonna be too expensive.

Edit: I am QUITE confident that Dawn or any dishwashing liquid would lead to broken glass for me. Especially along with vigorous shaking...

DHgate also has some led base lights... if you are already in there buying glass... I am a sucker for LED stuff in general, and it would be fun to brighten up a piece at night once in a while. I have used a color changing flashlight I have for this purpose in the past. http://www.dhgate.com/product/dhl-m...stal-display/158174219.html#s2-1-1|3400601172

The Tornado piece I ordered has at lease made it to china post, so it's on the way. I wonder if I'll get green accents, to matchy match all the other china green I have gotten so far. Green is a good color

Last week I cleaned my 189 EVERY DAY.

I clean my piece every session, . If I don't feel up to it, I just grab a different piece. Anybody else this obsessive? Maybe it's because the RB makes the water absorb the nastiness.

I quit using PBW cause it would always tend to leave white residue behind, but I was using a homemade blend.

For me it is now RezBlock every session, then rinse with a tiny bit of Simple Green. My glass has never been so shiny. I was going through a bottle of ISO every other week before this.

As for lights under your glass:

The inventor of the Verdamper built his own, lol.

Would be pretty cool to build a box like this with a built in surge protector/UPS for all our vapes.

VERY TRUE There are so many good people here and the ones you mention do a bang up job posting vids and jpegs with info/links and generally always assisting the mob here.The thread is amazing as we note,the amount of chatter is also heard around the site, people looking for what we already have, it spreads around well.

I remember trying to figure out 14mm 19 mm and what my Solo would hook up with and it was like being a teen all over again discovering the MJ, and its still is,I do question our addiction but its justified easily when the amount of 1 really class act rig = 10 of the knock-off import rigs generally, once again to all of you who do give us the 411 on the goods and your time , we salute you

I could understand that, but in this situation the water is piping hot and the velocity out of the faucet is enough to knock it down and honestly,one can just swirl it around a bit and it strips the build up. I dont shake because in my earlier pipes I broke a few percs and have resorted to using the NACE when vaping and either Dawn or a good industrial green cleaner/degreaser (orange oil cleaners,Simple green)when cleaning.Gloves are optional for grip. Rinse well.

This place is making me OCD about always hitting clean glass. Last week I cleaned my 189 EVERY DAY. I also blame watching myself vape in the mirror, I just want the clearest picture. I find after a while the glass fogs up and the oil build up makes the sides retain condensation. I don't really want to use the rezblock or cranberry, so I salt ISO shake, it only takes a couple min and lasts a day or two before I get that itch to clean it again.

Does anyone make glass with a built in LED or glowing material so you can see your vapor form better in the can at night? I'm thinking of macguyver-ing something for that purpose. Could be a very cool add-on product for vaporists.

HOME DEPOT BLACK LIGHTS WORK!

My LHS has a few pieces that have to be from the same supplier/manufacturer. I have a reverse showercap version I really like. I like being able to hook up a whip from the mouthpiece port and watching the vapor form inside.
The angle on the downstem is interesting - but makes it a little tricky to use ash catchers.

Got my Starbud Frapps in from hempgarage.com today.

Ordered: 6/2/14
Delivered: 6/9/14

Very happy with shipping time and packaging and price! $102 for 2 including shipping to the US!

I absolutely love this bubbler!

Zero defects! Hard to believe for only $50

Feels like 3-4mm thick. The logos won't last long unless you don't get any solvent on it when cleaning. No big deal. I'll get a nice Starbucks sticker when it wears off

Some pics:

I have been talking with Max at hemp garage. Thats great he did $100 shipped to the US. He sais he can do 10 at $35 each. Do you plan to sell?

$35 each is so cheap! I usually buy 2-3 when I order cheap glass so I can pick out the nicest one for myself and then sell the left over ones on craigslist to get my money back. I don't own a smoke shop or anything so 10 would be way to many for me lol

@Tweak I didn't notice....thank you.

Great @ataxian ...a bender mouthpiece ! of course coming from bender ......thanks good piece

@pigfoot I saw this piece but in their store outside ebay...looks well...thanks

http://www.greenbuddhashop.com/18MM-FEMALE-CLEAR-GLASS-MOUTH-PIECE-ADAPTER-MPA.htm

@rgrig I apreciate the information, this will be my first reverse showercap and my first one with removable parts...i really want to start to play with multiple configurations

Recently ordered the D020-K from sunshinestore, but dumb ole me didn't look really close at the photos to realize it has a male connector, not a female like the D020. Had a not so great afternoon going into various LHS' and trying to relate what an 18mm female-18mm female adapter would be (I'm going to be using it with my nano's 18mm gong) and no luck I had to turn to ebay. Oh well, it's gonna be sad sitting around a couple of days without using it, the tracking seems like the K will be here tomorrow probably, the adapter looks like at least Mon.

 

[Nvdizzzle]

Yes it is 18mm female

Good thing I already have a 18mm to 14mm converter ahh can't wait to get mine!

Yeah, it's a PITA. For what it's worth, I believe @VaPeD&CoNfUsEd makes 18mm Female GONG bowls for the Nano (haven't needed them yet, but I'm pretty sure I've seen them on his thread)

I usually buy my adapters from Mike at Oregon Glass blowers (OGB) - He makes everything to order, so you can get any adapter in any length or angle needed. I got him to make me a custom 15degree angled 18mm male to 14mm female adapter so I can use my lotus at a slight angle (great for visibility, but causes a hotspot in the load). Don't waste your time at an LHS - I went to 3 shops looking for a female to female adapter, discovered most don't know the difference between a male and a female connection, not one shop had it!

YAY! My GB-187 from Yingmin finally arrived (took like 2 weeks). Very happy to report that it's working with no broken parts. Only a couple cosmetic defects, like a small black spot and some scuffing. I also asked for no logo on my order, not sure if I would get it as I didn't clear it with Yingmin beforehand, but luckily I got a no logo. Now just to try it out with some oil....
