That is super cool!
We need you to make something that holds all the shit we collect as vaporists!
Can't wait to get it! Looks awesome @Ratchett. I am glad you were able to add the honeycomb. That sets it off!
@Ratchett, has shapeways provided any info on if, or how much, the firing/glazing process changes the final dimensions? I toyed with the idea of ordering a ceramic piece via sculpteo, but ended up abandoning it because I figured I'd need greater precision. This is from their materials info: "...the glazing process will slightly alter the object's geometry as it adds 1 mm of additional thickness. Keep in mind that the kilning process can also shrink your object by up to 3% as the water is heated out of the the object."
Does the song adapter work for esv?
@Ratchett I'm surprised yo haven't designed you're own grinder yet?
Porcelain grinder sounds sweet. It might not be just sounds sweet.Eventually I'll be placing an order with u.A lot of good stuff in the work.
Keep up the good work my friend!!

Interesting. @Ratchett can you confirm that the silicone is not adversely impacted by prolonged ISO soaks? I've yet to expose mine to ISO for fear of damage.they have been hold up well against 91-99% ISO as well as citric acid solutions.
Haha, yeah the thick silicone requires quite a bit of time to cure - that's why I've been trying to cast extra plugs so they have plenty of time to cure before I ship. Unfortunately it seems I can't make them fast enough!I waited so long to post a review cause I wanted to see how they held up against said solvents and I can say without a doubt they held up perfectly.
@Ratchett thanks again for the plugs buddy! I use them so often they rarely get put away!

so as long we dont light it on fire were sitting pretty!Haha, yeah the thick silicone requires quite a bit of time to cure - that's why I've been trying to cast extra plugs so they have plenty of time to cure before I ship. Unfortunately it seems I can't make them fast enough!
Thanks! Happy to hear they're working out for you. I agree, I love those plugs, I have about 7 of them in several sizes sitting on my shelf next to the sink.
I've got a new size rubber plug I'm releasing soon (just finished polishing the mold last night) - Jumbo tapered plug. Designed to fit huge mouthpieces up to 1.30 inches (33mm)
I have done extended full immersion testing with my Silicone adapters in 91% iso for a week straight without any signs of deterioration. I've also done a full immersion test in PBW without any signs of discoloration or deterioration. As far as I can tell, nothing you'd put in your waterpipe for cleaning will affect these plugs.
The only thing which did have an affect, was my cigar torch, even that didn't produce as much excitement as I expected.
If you'd like me to try any other full immersion solvent test, by all means let me know what and I'll grab one of my 'rejects'.
Hot damn, I'm on fire!
Now available on my Etsy store:
19mm Male GonG stands (Lotus Petal design)
(Male-Male fitting not included, shown for reference)
Yes, this is the first of a series of stands I'll be listing on the store over the next few weeks.
Currently this piece is only available in PLA plastic (withstands temperatures up to 140C), but I'll be adding this model shortly to my Shapeways store for purchase in exotic materials including ceramic and steel!
14mm version coming soon (although a reducer fits very nicely in this stand if 14mm is desired!)
I have a question about this piece. I currently use several hydratube stands and like them but sometimes I like to put an 18mm glass to whip adapter (http://www.vapornation.com/vaporbrothers-h20-adapter-19mm.html) on the bottom of my hydratube and it would be more convenient to have a temporary stand that could taper to accomodate this but not so deep that it would get stuck in the stand. Do you think it would balance ok with the current design which is for an 19mm male?
Hmmm, this sounds like something I'd could do as a custom order to ensure it fits your needs (and remains stable!). PM me and let's chat, I might be able to help, especially if you have a pair of digital calipers to help measure that taper.
