Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Is the joint 14 or 18?

It's a 14 on the center, an 18 on the left.

The left one looks like the water level would be about 1/3 of the way up the mouthpiece tube, but it should still work. I haven't worked with them on that design previously.

The dp-mini, in the center, should function well once the mouthpiece is properly positioned at the top corner. That would allow for good water levels and cross-chamber clearing. Also in this design the bent downtube actually blocks the splash from the perc opening and diverts it to the sides. I don't know why they moved the mouthpiece down from the top corner of the can, but I asked to have it corrected.

Steven/Jane want to know which style people prefer, so maybe only one of these designs will be made? If you want one or the other, now is the time to let it be known!

I really like the DP-UFO myself, should be a great group piece with an e-nail

We'll get to that @Trogdor , but Jane said it's got to be the DP-MINI first, then DP-TWIST, then the DP-UFO.

It's a necessary progression because they're figuring out new function and technique as they make these pieces- The DP-MINI requires a proper banger hanger style joint, the DP-TWIST requires that plus novel perc construction, and then the DP-UFO builds off that novel perc construction to become something completely different.

Discussion of new designs should probably stay out of this thread, at least until we have a picture of a physical prototype.

What makes you say that? It's not immediately obvious to me why either might not even work. I've been kinda curious about diffusion pumps but have held off on the current 710 because a thicker base is more appealing.

I think water level is going to be a problem in those two pieces. If you fill it to the bottom of the pump outlet, I have a feeling you're going to get a drink every time.

Edit - i see you mentioned changing the mouthpiece location, that should fix that issue. Not sure about the rest, but we'll see. I still don't trust steven enough to be the Guinea pig for the first round

Got my mini torus in from steven , The craftsmanship is great but the mouthpiece is crooked......

That sucks man, it seems like these pieces are a roll of the dice, could be great, could be an abomination. Yours isnt too bad though, just a little wonky. Maybe try craigslisting it for what you paid and reorder.

I'm really stuck right now trying to choose between the gb-186-1 or the fc-1000 for my Nano.

I'm really just looking for something around the 10-12 inch range so I'm not hunching over to hit it.

Wondering about the qc but 2 days to ship is quite the sexy eta.


I see a few differences from mine, however it looks like they may have changed from hooks to that button looking style for the rubber bands, but I absolutely love my genuine SB Travel bub with the same design (same size/dimension can/mouthpiece, just different perc). Cleaning is so very easy with being able to remove mouthpiece and downstem. I switched to the L-shaped mouthpiece for further separation from the torch (lotus) and better visibility. I think the 6shooter is a little more diffusion than I like, but at this pricing how can one say no? What did you end up going with?

Hey everyone, I was just looking around dhgate and I found this

http://www.dhgate.com/product/sovereignty-glass-pint-size-natty-neck-pillar/253955716.html

Which looks absolutely beautiful.

I trying to decide between it, the 12" torus, and the FC-1000 for a new piece. It'll be 99% for concentrates but I like airflow and sturdiness of the larger pieces. Any recommendations / thoughts?

get the sov cause i want to see a water test video ;) XD

wow they also do this, I really want a bent neck upgridded one though :'[

Went with the SB clone and a 20$ mobius clone(the perc slits are probably reduced but they always use a shitty camera so idk)

Can i get a recommendation on a piece dabbing only? I have the errlectric, only going to use for dabbing. I like the FC 187, FC 1000, Mothership Torus, FC 200 stereo Matrix....not opposed to getting two pieces. Anything i have missed? Ufo? Fc cake? I want them all honestly.
Thanks for any feedback

Water test of the new pump piece:


Edit:

For those who have been following, this is the prototype and not the finished version.

The final version will have a wider base and joint support, and the neck will be moved up about a cm so it joins at the top of the can.

Also, this piece will be listed as "Rattle Can" instead of dp-mini, so people are not misled about the size.

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Morning all,

Thought this was interesting...not sure on the joint size though...

Does anyone know which bubbler this is? I thought it was the D020-D. It works great but I think it might be another bubbler. I don't know much about glass, I'm still learning. It has a glass piece that fits in the middle. Is that called an inside perk? I bought it at DHgate.

EDIT
It's the D022 works wonderful with my ENano.

Is this supposed to be a hydratube or nectar collector?

What would be the difference? Joint size? Seems like a pretty similar idea imo...one just has the tip, but you could get an 18mm tip and stick it on a hydrotube, just sayin. And the nectar collector comes in 18mm on dhgate.com as well btw, and could be used as a hydrotube...

It appears to come with a corresponding 14mm tip similar to a nectar collector is the main reason I asked. You are right that it doesn't really make a difference either way though.

After this comment,
I prefer the down because your two main grid lines are seperated from eachother, (one on each side of the stem) whereas on the upgrid they both side beside eachother which makes more of the bubbles connect which is bad.
I'm really tempted to get the stem12 (previous post - won't let me edit) and one of these ash catchers:
http://www.dhgate.com/product/18-mm...-tree-perc/239299490.html#s1-34-1b|1983409897
or
http://www.dhgate.com/product/smoki...e/241734681.html?recinfo=4,8,3#cps-3-5|null:8

Do you guys have any insight on these three choices?
Couldn't find any other stem12/8 or higher quality ash catcher.
