Cheap High Quality Bubbler

I imagine it will have some sort of support. Looks like they tried to do the mobius thing but I just want a normal support and a more bent neck

Honestly this is a very weird question.. Mods can delete if they want. I searched dhgate the internet and thought of another place to ask, here has most knowledge.

My mattress is a piece of junk. Walmart sells memory foam mattresses for like 200$~. Something tells me there from china. Does anyone know where I could just order one and skip walmart?


On a side note and relevant to this thread: I LOVE AND WILL NEVER SELL MY FC-186.

If you look at most items on DHG that are already being imported in large quantities by US retailers like Walmart or Amazon or eBay resellers, you'll find that you actually pay more to wait longer on most DHG alternatives. You'll find this applies to pretty much anything other than new electronics with outdated hardware, glass pipes, and maybe some of the weirder sex toys out there (don't judge me, I was researching the market! haha). Chances of you finding a better deal on DHG for a single mattress shipped all the way from China are very unlikely. I'd say check Amazon and eBay, they might provide better alternatives, or at least more extensively reviewed products (that's how I chose my mattress and I'm never doing it another way again).

Thank you @sunshinestore. Finally a vendor I trust selling something I want. SOLD!

Buying it right now..... hmmm, what else do I want :lol:

Was really into this one until I took a little while to consider the quality of most Chinese honeycombs. Granted, I haven't gotten one in a long while, but they're not known for great consistency in their percs. My PHX HD can get chuggy enough and it's made perfectly, I don't want to deal with the drag of a poorly drilled honeycomb. I wish they'd just copy Steven's straight fab perc, or just use the perc they used for their latest klein. Actually I might be thinking of CCG's latest klein, they have pretty much this exact piece. But yeah, if this thing had that style of perc I'd have been all over it.

In related news, I've had this sample made by a new DHG seller. I ordered a $20 straight fab from him for shits and giggles and it was actually pretty sweet, besides the fact that he had only used 2 holes (or rather a straight hole through the piece) for the middle section, so on one side the spacing is good, but on the other all 3 holes line up vertically. It still functions well and is a great mini fab, smaller even than Steven's. Almost small enough to make a pendant rig, though it would be unwieldy. Anyway. I'm getting off track. I contacted the seller about the perc spacing and suggested he make a slightly larger version and this is what he came up with. It's on it's way for closer inspection. :brow:

More news that I forgot about. That Yingmin (GB-whateverthefuck) 8 arm to 12 arm shrub perc piece is dank as fuck. It does need a joint support, but it shouldn't be an issue unless you violently smack the base of your Steven straight fab into the bottom of the Yingmin's joint arm when you're grabbing it off the table. Anyway, the Yingmin piece is so good that I immediately ordered another. So there's my review, don't be stupid and the lack of a support won't matter, but the addition would make it a perfect piece in my book. The broken piece is still intact enough to stick a whip into the top of the lower perc, so whenever I get the herbie I've been looking at, this will probably become my dedicated herbie piece.

I want to find something smaller than the 2020 to use with my arizer solo. Can't have too much drag. I'm thinking about this one, any other ideas?
A lot of us just use an Ash Catcher with a J-Hook and it ends up looking a lot like your image. I have my J-hook and a couple A/Cs in my sig, but it could be ANY A/C.

My guess would be that the 707 didn't sell well (Still don't recall a report of anyone buying a 707 yet...), Steven offloaded a bunch of them to another seller in a bulk order, and now that seller is undercutting him a bit...

I think I remember reading that he will also sell lower quality ones that don't pass his QC to other sellers :\
(but that could have been another seller :shrug:) so they might be the particularly janky 707s...

I'd be interested to hear the verdict if anyone pulls the trigger though :)

Wow I can't believe I never thought of doing that! Out of the a/cs you have which has the least drag?

I also thought that this was the case as it happens all the time on DHGate but the title says 14.4mm joint and Steven only has 18mm.... so who knows?

I'm tempted but I will wait till the damn exchange rate stops fucking us over with 26% added to every damn purchase I make on DHGate/eBay. I'm tired of this crap eh.

Those guys are very creative but this sums up most of the stuff coming out recently, it's percs being put upside down, vertically, horizontally, etc. They need to think a bit before listing upside down percs because the water get's sucked in it and they don't seem to water test everything coming out of their own manufacture.

An other example, a honeycomb in the middle of the tube?!? It has no purpose at all except to make the price be higher for the customer lol
I like the rather unique color of the bong, it makes me think of the 70s :leaf::lol:

The second 1 Is very similar to the dcycler but they didn't put the funnel down all the way through the perc and out the bottom of the perc. This caused bubbles to go up the return tube. One of the sellers put up a function video that was just horrible and I'm glad I didn't buy it bc it was pretty cheap on cnmengglass.

Really tempted to order the FC-Donut before the FC-710, not sure but first I'm going to order a dropdown/14mm male 3mm thick banger from HymanQuartz01.

Just saw that, almost feel bad as they were just released on the weekend at chalice. Even with possible 21 day lead time you'd probably get it before the legit ones hit most shops. Not sure it's a must buy though without seeing the function. Hitman don't even have a function video on their Instagram feed yet.

Those pictures on there are from Chalice, you can see it on the banners in the background of the pictures lol.

Not too sure how the 1st one would function :hmmm:

It'd either perc up the up(return?)tube then settle on the turbine, or spin up through the turbine and maybe fall back down the return(up?)tube?

It'd be interesting to see a function video

I only have the 2 . The showerhead is so tiny it is hard to compare. I think the larger size of the honeycomb makes for smoother hits, but a mushroom perk like the one I posted (that one isn't mine) would have less drag.

Hey everyone! Finally caught up on the last 50+ pages! First off thank all of you guys who have put in work to get the Chinese blowers to make glass we want!

I placed an order last Thursday for Steven's straight fab. I dropped a line to them saying I was on FC and now praying it comes wrapped securely with no issues. Two days ago I caved and bought Steven's Dabuccino with the hammerhead perc. Hopefully no issues there either.

Cross post from another thread, here is the video I made showing the Straight Fab from Steven.

I have combined a few videos together so the end result is a little long, but hopefully this vid will have something for everyone :)


Man this video makes me wish mine was shipped and on my table already. Hope it's as nice as everyone seems to be pumping it up to be. I won't be using it for flowers strictly concentrates. Has anyone had any issues with the straight fab running a drop down or anything? I picked up a 18mm to 14mm reducer and a grav labs 90° reclaim on 710 from LHS for pretty cheap. Hoping it will pair nicely.

I'm already thinking about my next glass to get and I haven't even gotten my first orders yet. I'm definitely considering a torus but man you guys rave so much about the UFO, Cake, FC-1000, etc. it's hard to choose!
