I've been sending some emails back and forth with Sam, he mentione he was a bit swamped this week, so I wouldn't worry.
He normally replies pretty quickly IME.
I'm working out a custom piece with him
Ya I've been in a similar situation so I can empathize. Overall I'm rather happy about what I got, I got a bub that does exactly what I thought it would (plus a bit) a perfactly functional globe and inspiration to make a badass nail (will post pics tonight or tomorrow). I'll get a downstem later on lol. All that for $100.
It will be perfect when get ahold of Sam. Literally would be the best $100 I have spent since my MFLB
OK........... ITS HEREEEEEEE!!!!! and it exceeds my every expectation! sam and his guys are amazing! this is a high quality piece of glass! heres pics.
the color was completely unexpected! a little gift from sam. I like it alot!
This thing is thick! built like a tank!
AMAZING DIFFUSION!! look at those bubbles!
SO what do you guys think????
P.S.

Sorry. Stupid iPhone! A mod fixed them I believe.
I was asked not to reveal the price. However you can email Sam and inquire on a price for the frit sidecar (he'll know what piece your talking about).
EDIT: I will say I got an amazing deal and was completely included in the design process which was the best part!

You know, at one point... I hadn't ever done a Youtube video either.
In fact, I hadn't ever done one, until I signed up on this site.
P.S. So much for a certain-someone's threats of suing anyone using the frit tech. LOL!

Same for me, but I still don't fuck with YouTube.. Vimeo is my video uploader. I'm trying to get better with editing on iMovie to make smoother vids for the community
So Sam emailed me tonight. Apparently there have been like 5 people to order the sidecar frit piece after seeing mine! So that's fucking awesome! He also said he was thinking of adding it to the inventory and naming it after me so people know who designed it! Which is equally as fuckin awesome!

.I asked Sam if that frit could be made in slime green.
I Dont need to see Vapor necessarily,some clean pulls would be fine ,if you could manage
Is it an inline to frit?
Can you see all the vapor action side on as it happens or is it a bubble fest even on slow draw?
I would love to see a few frames of closeup Inline to frit action and also a some bubbles fizzing in that Can.
Your'e right to be excited about the piece.You nailed it I think V&C.Have Fun
Omg I wish mine was slime green! But the color was a bonus so I ain't bitching! Lol there is no inline. There's no need for the inline. The diffusion is amazing! The sidecar is perfect for the frit. If you tip it back and start pulling it starts swirling and recycling almost, then you tip it up straight and u get this giant swirling stack! It's sick! I've prolly hit it more empty playing around with the bubbles than I have with meds through it! A truly amazing unique piece. I highly recommend Sam and his guys they did great work.

How tall does it stand?
And is that mouth piece detachable?
What kind of glass is it made of?
It's about 8.5 inches to the top of the can. Maybe 11 over all with the mouthpiece attached. Yes it's a removeable mouthpiece. I'm assuming borosilicate glass. It's thicker than 5 mm for sure! Things a tank!

If I'm picturing this right it seems the any bubbles(from the showerhead) would travel up the tube into the uppermost chamber where they would pop. Obviously not quite (or very close really), but reminds me of a type of recycler.

I am almost certain that it will not stack to the showerhead. Look at the perc... It is a 3 slit perc. I think it is a bit of a dumb design, but unto each his own.
