@shark sandwich thats awesome. I would buy that in a heartbeat. Hollow base, no perc seems right to me. I really like that!

I'm currently working with Steven to get the Cobra Can prototype made. It's been a real struggle so far, so I don't know if I'll have the ability to work with him on getting anything else made until that's been handled.
Maybe ccg or sss could make it?

CCG is working on the three-piece convertible design from the last page.
This is the first prototype. Some issues have already been addressed- including the bottom joint needing to be capped, changing the perc to a matrix, and obviously the mouthpiece and base still need to be made.
Otherwise, hopefully this is good.

I've always wanted a revolver bowl like this but they're like $90 here.. 
Who could I contact to make these?

That's a combustion piece - I personally would be careful what glass I used for that. The only DHgate vendor I'd consider contacting is cleanclearglass - they seem to use a better quality glass than many other vendors I've seen on DHgate.
I'm sure one of them can make it for you if you get a few pictures of different angles - maybe sketch out on graph paper how the tubes connect, maybe just sketch out on paper with some size dimensions for them (in metric, natch)

I'd buy a revolver bowl for sure. Not for me, but my cousin asked me to find him one from china and I came up blank. lol.
Steven says he can make me an alternative mouthpiece for the UFO but doesn't know how hot it will sell. Apparently that affects my price. Just wanted to gauge if there's any interest. I talked about something like this for two posts in the bubbler thread but didn't get any responses.
I don't mind paying markup which looks to be what I'm going to do.
This is the basic design I wanted him to use: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/smoking-pipe-smoking-glss-u-hook-clear-smoking/383441955.html
Spherical mouthpiece. Or maybe you guys already have spherical mouthpieces and you can tell me where to get one?

I'm not trying to ruffle feathers but by that philosophy, why even make rigs? I definitely think the answer is larger than too many imports.

With scientific glass the profit margins have to be way better on rigs v slides

Yes it is looking like that to m to I never even noticed that till you just said that's crazy they should not be 90 in the end all there doing is making there job actually easier than throwing it in the tube and they are charging more haha but it is crazy quality and if you think you could make them or no someone I would love to purchase one also

I tried to work with a few different Chinese factories to get some things made. Just basic stuff, matrix perc rig with coloured accents etc.
What I found was that nearly all of them are only interested in low quality mass production, and one off designs or even product suggestion typically go nowhere once discussed.
There are a few vendors who are happy to do custom work, MLglass is one that gets used most often from r/chinaglass
Here's a good example of a custom pieces for $55, it uses solely China glass, where as American imported rod will start to cost much more.
It's far, far easier to contact a native English speaking blower who specialises in custom pieces or is willing to work for you, and if you shop around the price difference is negligible too, but the quality is a far cry

By custom stuff I was thinking more like the FC- pieces that did to mass market. The FC-UFO, for example is one of my favorite pieces. What I am thinking about is getting one of them to knock off the Roor Vapor, which seems like a piece they could sell the hell out of...
