Thanks for all your wise tips much appreciated I ordered one yesterday along with a 14mm adjust a gong (was for the PWT)and the long stem so see if I can swap for something else not sure? Also had ordered some extra screens am I on the right track? I had accidentally ordered two 14mm gongs so asked to swap for a 14 and 18mm gong instead.
There seems a lot of negative feedback on the different forums concerning the PWT why is that? I have only had the water tool not the vap. I find it does cool it down a bit and I dont have to suck large volumes of air to get it started but even that takes away the taste to me.
If for say I didn`t want to use a bubbler (feel you lose too much taste) would the j hook be the best for cooling and if so can you steer me to a link for one? Thanks again.
Glad you decided to get one. Make sure you get a response from Andy or Nadia soon, or write another email on your changes. With your shipping, I'd try to do all I could to make sure it was what I wanted first time.
Think most of the negative feedback you see on the PNWT is because people think it can be a quick, cheap, small, easy substitute for a real waterpiece - but it isn't. It basically just gives some bubbles and a few drips of moisture (in your vapor and usually on your lips!). One of my gripes is that it is a poor substitute for an aqua-vape (a water chamber to use on a whip). I have one and used it for quite some time with the EQ. Probably more about that one somewhere on FC or IM me if you're interested. I guess the PNWT is great on the Pinnacle, and maybe other portables - but it just frustrated me and made me wonder why i wasn't using a real bubbler.
There are pictures of steamrollers on this thread and Joda thread. Just search on "steamroller" and look for posts with "[ IMG ]" in them somewhere.
I've been hearing the "through water bad for lungs" for more than 30 years in different forms. I used to attribute it to people who couldn't afford, handle or know where to find bongs. Think some of that still the case, but also have come to think some of those people were right. Then again... we were combusting through acrylic and changing the water every couple of days at best. Throw some half burned crappy schwag in there and you can get quite a science experiment. Add to that monthly - if that - cleaning (with PineSol if you wanted it clean), and we were putting our lungs through hell - especially while taking the biggest hits we could to be cool, and practicing to do bigger hits when no one else was around. Even with all of that we survived, and I only knew one bonehead who would always say his chest colds came from bonging (and not the stumbling around drunk in the cold smoking cigs on his way home a few times a week).
These days? With vapor going through sparkling glass into clean water? I don't really think so. To piggyback on
@Ratchett here, I know most people who run humidifiers don't have them nearly as clean as my lovely glass vaping tools. And, I'm probably not as OCD about this as many FCers.
Just saw your post above this... IM probably better.
