Open Source Glass Thread

i really wish the FC Cake was taller or had a different perc, something with some more restriction.

My cake came the other day, put water about 5mm above the perc and it functions perfectly for me

I can see how it might be a bit more dependent on draw speed or the vape it's paired with, but I've been quite happy with mine so far

I'm a sucker for matrix percs and that was the only thing that drew me in to the cake

I want to see your actual list of glass now, you should take a picture of your whole collection, I think it'll break the internet lol

Pic taken before the cake and straight fab arrived.
There's a couple that missed the group shot due to being loaned to friends, but this is like 90-95% of my collection

It's pretty much all China on the left, and all American on the right

Wow, nice pic! Where is the matrix pillar? No Aussie glass!?! I like how the ray gun divides them. Have you tried/owned a nectar collector?

I think it's close to 40 pieces

The matrix pillar was soaking in PBW at that time.

No Aussie glass yet... I really should get at least one

I don't have a nectar collector, and I don't plan to.
They just seem like a simplified hydratube to me. I've already got 3 nice hydratubes, so the simpler design of the nectar collector doesn't appeal to me...

The whole concept of the dabbing part of the nectar collector seems super sketchy to me, and it just seems like a poor way to dab IMO, so that part of a nectar collector doesn't really appeal to me either

 

[Mister G]

Wow, impressive collection. Where the heck to do you store all of that?

They should make a Raygun nector collector with a carb for your trigger or thumb. I know you said you don't like NCs, but some do (I've never tried one).

In the old days, David Letterman would take your collection up on a roof and film the ground as they throw and shatter them on concrete. You should consider that, you might break YouTube.

Woah, I'm only around 20 China pieces and starting to run out of space. . I must say it's a bit relieving to know that no matter how ridiculously large my glass collection gets, there's a ton of people out there with even bigger collections

It started as 1 shelf in my cupboard, now it's 3 and another cabinet

A ray gun NC would actually be kinda cool.

Just for clarity, I'm not against the concept of a nectar collector per se, just that it seems like a dumbed down hydratube, so I don't really see the point to them
It's mainly the dabbing with then that I find really sketchy.

Good thing letterman has retired now
Though I might consider letting Colbert getting his hands on some of the collection

What are your go to pieces these days?

So many

Möbius matrix clear is still my favorite piece ever, and gets heavy rotation.

The matrix pillar has really caught my attention recently - and has found a pretty regular spot in the rotation

I've been liking the cake, but I'll prolly mostly use my möbius ion instead once the initial thrill wears off.

I've been out of errl for the last few weeks, but the diffusion pump is usually my go-to for that.
Otherwise for dabs usually it'd be the d cycler or barrel to funnel.
Or the kathy egg...

I've recently been using my hydra stand + HydraCirc.

The straight fab is cool, I've been using that the last few days with the sub.

Then some smatterings of DG straight tube,
EFS gridded donut & donut incycler.

Yeah, I rotate my glass pretty heavily

This picture makes me feel alot better about myself, Nice collection man !

I have sent Steven a request for a smaller torus/incycler and to incorporate his straight Fab. I was thinking something like this.

Would there be interest?

Dammit, I had managed to avoid any incycler pieces that piqued my interest...
*hangs head, raises hand* yeah, I'd be interested in that

 

[MoltenTiger]

That would see my money. Having the fab holes would reduce the amount of water needed to fire up the vortex. I very nearly pulled the trigger on the new torus, but it looks to have a few drawbacks for my use (with an EQ and whip) where it wouldn't function with high resistance and it looks like it would trap pieces of herb if I was to combust, which I would only consider doing if it didn't fire properly with the vape.

My perfect piece would be the torus shape and size, with a stand alone (or stereo?) matrix birdcage, to a separate chamber which would have fab holes, to a vortex incycler.
It'd be nice to have an empty chamber somewhere up top to fill with vapour before clearing to increase the size of the hit, and so you can heat up the herb without beginning to inhale (ie. clearing the air from the glass sucks out the volume required to flow through the vape to get it vaporising properly, so you can quickly exhale just air and then immediately start on a big fat cloudy hit).

Does anyone with the 30cm torus have any comments on the volume of the piece? With the amount of water required it looks like the air volume would be reduced somewhat. I'm looking for a mid-size piece to pool vapour with, rather than have it go straight through and pool in my lungs like with my D020.

No issues with herb or debris in the piece. Other than having a few drops of water that you-just-can't-get-out, its actually a breeze to clean up.

This is easier to clean that two other pieces that have a tree perc or splash guard.

Yessss.

I asked the same thing referring to THIS. But he needed detailed images and I'm not computer savvy at all. Someone please make this happen.

I have sent Steven a request for a smaller torus/incycler and to incorporate his straight Fab. I was thinking something like this.

Would there be interest?

Yes! That would get me interested in an incycler. I also contacted him a little while ago (and encourage you all to do the same) about a similar piece. I like kleins better than incyclers, so this is the piece I was recommending he try to recreate.

I would be down for a binary matrix copy. I just hope he doesn't copy that ugly joint support with the mobius logo on it.

I'd love to see him make a copy of this piece:

I don't think it would be too difficult for him considering he's already making pieces that incorporate the primary components of the Brandon P rig.

If other people would be interested in one of those, hit up Steven!

Personally I'd prefer that Klein version

Anyone else able to access Stevenlmz79's page?

 

[caphector]

Anyone else able to access Stevenlmz79's page?

I cannot; gives a "Page does not exist" error. Searching for the store name gives me nothing found and CleanGlearGlass suggestions.

Now that I think about it, I had an open but un-paid-for order with Stevenlzm79 (was considering if I really wanted the piece) that was cancelled last night. I figured it had just timed out but now I'm not so sure.

 

[Dieter Paleo]

Anyone else able to access Stevenlmz79's page?

The page is missing. I am worried as I ordered a straight fab and it has not updated tracking since the 14th. Today his store is gone and none of his pieces are available.

Have you guys seen this yet? Kathy has a new Egg and it looks really nice. Price is cheap!

http://www.dhgate.com/product/2015-...nal/243521660.html#myaccount_favorites-1-null

I've been messaging with From Jane/Steven. Store is frozen for 7 days?

"
Don't worry it,post office said today there must updated,now is Beijing time 13:46..

Also my store is freeze 7 days due to some problem,Boss(Steven) was checking with dhgate and try to ask them to cancle it.

Jane/Steven"

 

[wolfJflywheel]

Personally not a fan of Kathy's eggs. This new egg looks kind of sloppy and misaligned and I would assume she's photographing one of the better looking ones. As for the large egg, I would be interested if it had 12 holes like a standard egg, but with all the extra space why would she only use 8 holes? It's always baffled me. If anything the larger egg should have extra holes, not fewer.

I want someone to make an egg with a matrix perc. Until then I think I have more than enough Fabs around with my 2 CCG eggs and my soon to come straight fabs from Steven and the new seller hebeiyouxin. Not expecting much from the new seller, but hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

 

[CubanGrower]

I just received Stevens Torus. It functions properly, but the size is way too big.. the one people rock now is the 9 inch tall one. And the joint is a 18 MM... ive never seen any mothership come with 18 mm.


I like it but I simply dont have the lung power to rage on this huge torus by Steven.


Cant wait for a 9 inch version

 

[Dangus]

O damn, @CubanGrower in the house! Really enjoy the content you bring to hash church, thanks for taking the time and glad to see ya posting here.

Cheers

 

[PoopMachine]

Ive been out of this thread for a while. Is there a dedicated set of links to what you guys have come up with somewhere? Might need some new glass and I aint paying local shop prices.
