What are you going to use it for/with? Are you looking to have just one rig for vaping flowers, doing dabs, and combusting when you lose your way? :D these facts go a long way when it comes to recommendations.

Personally, I'm a little put off by Stephen's track record on here. Sending out such poor, inconsistent work doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in me, regardless of what he's capable of. Plus, he's quite a bit more than most store's prices. I had a crap piece sent from Yingmin5, but they have shipped another, supposedly handpicked replacement. Will update when it arrives.

that looks sick, i dont even understand how that functions though, seems like the bottom chamber would need a LOT of water and wouldn't you just end up sucking it all up into the top chamber? idek. needs function vid asap.
Looks like they are trying to copy Erik Anders microscpoe but his is a recycler and much better looking.

That's a fair assessment, but I'd like to reiterate that I had a really good CS experience with Steven and received semi-functional items from SSS who has a great rep here. Order from China and roll the dice. Sometimes you're winning big w/ a rip of a $1k piece, sometimes you look at your "outbox" of glass and sigh as you flop another into the bin.

I don't think there are actually that many painted rigs out there (though they do exist). My advice to anyone interested in a rig that is potentially painted would be to message the vendor and ask. If they say it isn't then go ahead and order, and if it is painted then just file a dispute and screencap your messages with the vendor saying it wasn't painted.

Literally every mention I see of the painted rigs in this thread is negative - or are you referring to non-FC members not giving a fuck about the paint?
:shrug:

But yeah, I'd say they're probably safe, but really not worth the potential risk Imo.

I own both and have used an e-nail with each of them. Filtration level is about the same but the FC-186 has a much larger volume and requires a bit of pull. The GB-194-1 has a much smaller volume (good for dabs) and there's no restriction when you pull on it, like as if you forgot to put water in it. The FC-186 is now relegated mostly to occasional EVO use and the GB-194-1 is one of the main pieces in my rotation for use with my e-nail. The other pieces are the FC-710, CNMeng 9" clear Fab Egg, CCG D-Cycler.

In case you need more convincing the GB-194-1, maybe @BoogerMan can lend some insight.

Looks very much like vapefiend have gone and got themselves a whole bunch of FC-186's and calling it a Bomb Tower Bubbler:

To be fair they haven't put TOO much mark up on the price considering you usually get stuff next day from them here in the UK :nod:

Edit: on second look maybe the mouthpieces are different :huh: :hmm:

The FC-200 is the angled straight neck stereo matrix.
The FC-186 is the bent neck stereo matrix.

I was kinda surprised when the 200 came out, as I had seen no discussion of wanting the neck changed, and it's really a pretty minor change aside from that.

My guess is that it's easier to attach a straight tube at an angle than to bend a tube, so the FC-200 is cheaper for them to produce...

I personally prefer the bent neck 186...
But I haven't seen a 200 in person

The best way to describe it is that with or without a dropdown it will knock over more easily only if you physically hit it.

I recently broke my DH gate cherry and purchased the FC-710. No need for a review as what all the others have said is true. If you dab, have 40 bucks and want the best little flavor savor, get it. This post is for the CCG Hitman glass sundae stacker. I got it in the mail yesterday after ordering on 7/31. The glass is super thick and the welds look good. It hits good too not too much drag. Not as much flavor as the 710 but that's going to be hard to beat. The packaging was great and I would feel confident in ordering from them again.

Gimme a few days and I'll let you know, I've got a 710 en route to my house right now :D
(I don't dab, so I'm using it for flowers exclusively)
Can't wait to find out your results. My only complaint about the FC-710 (barely a complaint even) is how absurdly loud it is. Everyone on your block knows when you hit that thing ;) the sound grew on my fast, but the volume was definitely surprising

is it really that loud? what noise level could you compare it too?
 
LittleM17,
It's got a very solid sound. It's not a bomb going off, but I wouldn't use it in... a dorm room, for instance. It's not so loud that your neighbors will hear you, but if you've got your windows open its actually not that unbelievable that they might (in the city).
my bong can be muted, but you can't put your hand on a hot banger to "mute" it in use. With more water, the "bubbling" noise is around the same level, but the marble moves less, so it's less of a cacophony. Just know it has a distinctive telltale sound that isn't good for stealth situations that it's size might otherwise lend it to. 5/5 stars, regardless.

Guys, although this may not be the traditional rig most would go for I am VERY interested in this baby bottle fab styled rig that CCG has: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/new-fab-egg-baby-bottle-oil-rigs-water-pipe/242001934.html

It's only $40 and I was really interested in purchasing it.

In all honesty I wouldn't mind paying the extra $100ish dollars for this version, but then again no artist or company is named so I'm not sure if its worth the difference lol

Also interested in this design if anybody knows a seller on DHgate that may have it: https://www.smokecartel.com/collect...-rigs/products/purr-glass-14mm-bottle-oil-rig



ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED, it is my birthday on the 29th and I would love to order a new setup ASAP.

It seems to me that smokecartel,..and dankstop,...and a couple other online headshops inventory consists of 10% name brand,..mass glass like silika,..pulse,..C2,..huffy,..etc.
...and the other 90% is dhgate,..w/ they're name attached to it and mark it way up...but it is indeed Chinese glass.
...which some object to,..and some could give 2 shits either way.
I mean you or I could upstart a headshop called let's say,..FC GLASS..stock up from dhgate,..sprinkle in a few branded pieces and we're in business.
So,..I'd save the money from cartel and get that bottle for $40..the differances are minimal..definitely not an Xtra $60 worth.
I hope this makes sense,..and it's only my opinion and findings.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
