I shall post one tonight of Mrs P dabbing through it most likely. We've just about made the jump to oil completely but I do have some Watermelon Sativa hanging around so maybe we'll get the Evo out.

Okay I just got an idea. Call me crazy but what if I had Trey make a Faberge Egg Klein?

I'm thinking inline perc to Faberge egg to 3-6 short uptake tubes that have a return down the middle like a Klein and drains using 3 tubes.

So basically combine these two rigs into one. Wonder if it's possible?

Here is one kinda on the path I am thinking about. Except I would want more uptake tubes and the return tube to run down the middle and split into 3 return lines like the first pic below.

Those eggs are cool. The thing with them tho, is they are thin. The way they make those holes, it makes the glass thin so you have to be REALLY careful and there's a lot of areas that once you make them, you cant get in there to do anything with them so if they ever break, youre screwed. Trey made a really intricate one last week and it cracked cooling down in the kiln and because of where the crack was, he couldnt fix it.

Thanks @GSH that's what I was looking for.

Well you can mark me off that list then lol. I'm prone to breaking things but luckily most things I break can be fixed so knowing a $500+ egg can't be fixed makes it a no go for me.

Looks like I'm stuck with a double/triple Klein only. I've always wanted an egg but unless Trey can make the egg part more durable and thicker I'm gonna have to pass unfortunately :(

And I assume the Swiss perc is also similar where it becomes weak because of the way the holes are made?

I'm kinda bummed because I love the idea of using glass holes/tunnels to add that extra natural diffusion/more water contact with the vapor.

Maybe Trey could make the egg part out of 7mm thick glass so at least it may only thin out to like 5mm (instead of like 3mm if 5mm glass is used)?

His eggs wont be as expensive as everyone else's. No middleman markup and Trey prices his stuff reasonable. But yea, they really arent repairable if something inside breaks. You cant get in there to fix it.

He's made several but unfortunately I havent seen any of them. All summer my job has been slow.. My job is usually slow in the summer and ramps back up in the fall but it came on like gangbusters this year so Ive not had as much contact with him this week as normal. Ill try to get some pictures.

I do know for everyone waiting on pieces they've sent me money for, he has said they will be done this weekend. I fudge him a couple of days because Trey is usually overly optimistic but I expect to be able to start shipping stuff Monday.

It's either a good or sad thing that this man doesn't have a social media page of some sort so I can('t) leave "fangirl raving 'you rockstar/god' you" type reviews/ravings :p . I just want something i can quantifiably "like" of his. I'm loving everything this man makes to the point of just re-going through the thead times and again :)

Its amber purple.. see... thats whats so cool about that glass. Depending on how you heat it, it comes out in a multitude of colors and it changes colors when the light hits it at certain angles. I had him make me a set of wine glasses for Mrs P with amber purple rings around the rim and the base. They both look completely different color wise because of how the color struck out.

Oh yea, Mrs P has a video and a picture of one of his eggs. Ill try to get it off her phone tomorrow and post it.

it's hard to tell from the video (crappy lighting I guess) but that was actually a decent sized hit too. I think with so much water in there it can be a little bit deceiving as to how much vapor is being drawn into your lungs. another thing to mention - my EVO really likes to whistle and it doesn't whistle when I use this tube... I don't know how that all works because it feels like I am drawing just as hard as I do with other tubes, there is really not much drag at all once you get the action going. but clearly this tube is slowing down the draw a bit because there is no whistle. maybe that's why it's getting me more medicated!

I guess I've only had the tube for a week now so still in the honeymoon phase but I am totally attached. if by some horrible stroke of luck or lapse of judgment I break it I would immediately order another one just on function alone. flavor is really good despite the fact that it hits smoother than my Ion Matrix, which goes against some of principles I thought I understood about vaping through water and glass. this thing is a gem

You typed my thoughts sir. I never compare any of my pieces to my Mobius because previously it has always been in
a league of its own, until now. This Hydraklein is Voodoo it defies the laws of the GLASS!!! I have 5new pieces and I've only used the Hydraklein since it arrived.
