^ I combusted on my birthday but only because Vape World failed to deliver my MFLB before my departure to NYC. What struck me most is how the herb decomposed into ash and deposited itself on me and everything else in the room. The taste (which I loved since I was a juvenile delinquent) was quite bitter. As everyone here knows vapor doesn't have a particularly strong taste, specially if you vapor bong.

I understand you and feel the same way. Not only do I think smoke is nasty now, after having smoked for 25 years, the 2 times I smoked in the last year and a half or so, it didnt get me high......or I should say it didnt get me anywhere near as high as vapor........that sealed the deal for me 110%. I was like wheres the high.....then an hour later I felt the horrendous comedown.Shiz said:

I like it a lot because it is easy to clean and there is always very little drag due to the huge joint. The downsides are hard to get attachments and the small base which results in some instability with big AC's. If you get one, try to get SSFG to make you a showerhead diffuser for it. Rips like no one's business.

I combust pretty much daily but I do vape a lot more than I smoke.
I just got a new downstem for my RooR bub. I hate the design of the RooR bub's overall(soooo stupid having the joints for the mouthpiece the way they are instead of facing downwards so you could use it as an ash-catcher as well) but I got an amazing deal for it since a friend of mine got it off somebody else for cheap. The original bub had a bowl/downstem that was connected and therefore I hated using this bub. Now I have an Alex K. showerhead from ALT and it is AMAZING!

I posted this in the Herborizer thread but will re-post here. The RooR got a nice little upgrade this past weekend. No more combusting for me!

Aww shit, broke the joint on my Migrant tube 
First time I've broken a piece of glass because I was vaped. Dropped the grinder right on the joint. I know it's fixable, but a little more work then a break closer to the joint. Can't find anyone local who wants to attempt the fix. Anyone know a good glass blower that will usually try to do repairs?

It's true, Swanee eloped with Lebowski, a SG 12 Arm oversized Stemline. Friends have intervened and I just joined the local chapter of Glassaholics Unanonymous. More photos and (psycho)analysis to come.
Pappy - the 12 arm must be sitting in 70mm bore because it looks bigger than the 60mm on Swanee. That chamber is just a BEAST. No wonder you were telling me it takes 2 inhales to properly milk that thing. Don't have too much fun with it, you might find yourself higher than you've ever been.

It is! It's a 50/75/45 with an oversized Stemline. Actually I think I got it down to one draw (or maybe I was stonedstonemonkey55 said:
).@ Y'all > I appreciate all your kind comments. Lebowski is soaking in GO now so I can talk. Where to begin? Lebowski is a badass! He has that unmistakable SG ping. Drawing requires more effort than Swanee but less than my SSFG showerhead beaker which is amazing considering how much glass it is. With water in it you can use this SG 12 Arm for exercise. It's a LOT of bong!
Some initial impression. You want to hit this bong standing up (and then immediately take your chair
). For a two chamber piece it draws remarkably smooth. There's obviously more tube to fill but SG technology does the trick! I won't say it's effortless but once you get it down (which I did by session 3) it's a very pleasant smoke/vape. Which brings me to the "Is a perc too much diffusion for vaporizing?" question. Probably so! OTOH because this tube is so smooth and efficient I don't think you suffer a penalty on taste or lost vapor. This tube clears as well as Swanee -- par excellance! I had to resort to the bathtub to clean the big bastard. Lebowski is much higher maintenance than Swanee as any who ever cleaned (or even emptied) a tree perk knows. I took total leave of my senses buying it (ALT fever aka Stone Monkey fever) but for a sight unseen purchase I could've done much worse.
The only person I could imagine using Lebowski as a daily driver is The Jolly Green Giant of Gulliver! So I guess I got me a showpiece and party bong. As I told Stone Monkey I look at it like buying 100 shares of some $6 stock. I'll appreciate it much more and believe it'll appreciate more in value over time.

Haha, oh no pappy picked up the monster stemline tube. Would you have seen yourself as a glass addict a few months ago? How things change so quickly 
On a side note, I've found someone to fix the migrant! Contacted a few glass artists and the one that came through, once again, Ray at SSFG. It's understandable that a lot of artists are busy with it being the holiday season. Hopefully the monster 9mm migrant will survive it's operation...

Thanks for the insight Pappy. I knew you would give some honest feedback pertaining to vapor. That is a sick tube no matter how you slice it. According to all the other reviews, it is exceptional at smoothing out smoke. If you were still a regular smoker I think you would have noticed much more of the superior diffusion that tube offers over others. A smoker would be able to truly take advantage of all that diffusion and take monster hits that would not be possible on other tubes.Pappy said:
Now we need Stonemonkey to give us a review of the sg pillars.... vapor vs smoke. I've been contemplating a custom pillar tube but I'm sure the diffusion is overkill for vapor. Probably wouldn't benefit much unless I smoke through it.
