The HI

[Tom]

Looking forward to seeing a video EyeFonez. Purple Heart wood does work pretty well for the HI. Some woods that are more dense will hold a little more heat and feel hotter to the touch. I have never turned Tigerwood, but I imagine it is very dense. The HI's made with very dense woods will also feel hotter to the touch and require passing back and forth between hands if you want to hold the upper part of the HI. The bottom part will always be relatively cool. I usually grab my HI by the lower part.

So I found my old black light and turned it on in my shop with the light out. I found some rather interesting things.

Left to right. Purple Heart, Yellow Heart, Red Heart, Osage Orange, Pink Ivory, Sumac

The day my email comes I will have no idea which wood to choose! All look stunning Alan!

 

[Jeppy]

I hear ya, Tom. But I think most would consider themselves lucky to have Alan 'surprise' them.

Sooooo badass Alan! I may need to hop back on the list for some of that sumac

Nooo.. But seriously

 

[Ed's TnT]

Wow!!!! So awesome. Alan, those are all so very choice. Great work!! The Sumac is too cool--freaky under the blacklight.

I have HI hopes after seeing that group photo.

As do I!

Love how the colors and grains change under that black light. Like they have an "hidden" personality.

 

[stickstones]

so that's what alan does when he is hi!

I'm such a rookie...need to get a black light.

The black light pictures..they do remind me of what Frodo saw when he put the one ring on at weathertop, those shadows and features...but Alan doesn t have a ring does he?

wait a minute!..well um..I dont know what to say that ring looks kinda special

Go to 1 min 35 in for the great CGI

Yes, I want Alan to choose my HI. That 'wood' be very special.

 

[CHIDOY]

Oh GREAT Alan.... make my wait THAT much more excrutiating! Those all look AMAZING! i told you i was a very patient man, but your really testing it with these pics. Well played sir. .Well played

 

[mestizo]

Hi Alan,
I feel the same way as EyeFonez and want to jump back on the list, can a person choose a particular kind of wood he wants his HI made out of from? I really don't care how long it takes since I already own one.

 

[ilovebOObs]

get back in line there buddy, cuz boobs is in line for #2 also.

 

[Vapinghole]

It's great to know Alan will be busy helping repeat customers. He deserves the support.

 

[VapeVoice]

Oh B00Bs, let me get my first one first, you greedy bastahd!

One HI to rule them all...

That does it...I'm getting in line

 

[Jeppy]

So far everything I've seen Alan create has been beautiful. Each piece different, yet each just as intricately awesome as it's predecessor or successor.

 

[Alan]

Thanks everyone. I was hoping you would enjoy my photography. I knew that Sumac had a bright glow under black light. I did not know about the other woods. It was a fun discovery. The sawdust made the table and floor very bright under the black light.

Very kind of you Jeppy. I will try to keep up the good work.

Welcome to the waiting line Papa Woody. The power of the ring is strong.

I always welcome repeat customers. Will just have to work you in with all the new customers.

I'm currently allowing everyone to select the wood they would like. This does slow things down a bit as I want to fill a customers request before moving on to the next person. I may need to try something different, but will keep doing what I'm doing for now.

The HI would not exist if not for cannabis stickstones. It has been the reason for all my great inventions and devices.

Wow those HIs look really nice, haha. Alan I emailed you like about a month ago asking about placing an order and you said itd be a few months before I'd be able to get one. Is that still correct? 2 months from now or would it be longer? Thanks

If it helps get a sense of time, i ordered Feb/28 and still don't got it but it won't be much longer.

Get on board and embrace the wait, it will be worth it!

 

[VapeVoice]

Feel free to just give me which ever one is available when my name pops up Alan. I'm not picky.

 

[Vapinghole]

Ok, a few things to comment on since I last popped in (and because I'm high as hell right now):

1. Alan - The way I see it, you're a great innovator/artist, who also happens to vaporize. On the side, I've made you aware of my affinity/obsession for possessing fine woodwork, so you have my mad respect.

2. Having stalked this thread for quite a while (jumped on the wait list just over 3 months ago), I HI-ly encourage all readers on the fence about emailing Alan for a place in line to get said place in line. Alan's service is exemplary, as are the fine-ass folks on this thread--just ensure you have time to wait. I can easily deduce the list has grown quite a bit since I jumped on. This thread is so much fun, though torturous at times when you see a badass HI video.

Oh B00Bs, let me get my first one first, you greedy bastahd!

3. bOObenstein - you are a greedy mo fo, and I hope you're at the very end of Alan's list, and that he forgets about you. I'm kidding, of course...kind of. But anywho, I love you man, and I hope nothing but the best for you, Mrs. bOObs, your current little bOOb, and your new little bOOb on the way.

4. I just vaped my ass to ancient Byzantine, hence my post.

vh you have a great way with words .loving the poetry and wisecracks.

Maybe boobs deserves his 2nd Hi early after all the great videos w eve all enjoyed.His Hi has been in a few scrapes already and even lost one of its limbs.Can t help but feel sorry for him

Oh Man.it hurt and everything stinks.I realise now the quality I have when I vape and d ont combust thanks to you guys and to the Hi.Mess with her and she will hurt you

 

[Jeppy]

That word is funny and tricky 'deserves'. Lets just agree, that everybody who wants one should have one. Or two. DOUBLE EDIT: Brother Vapinghole does talk shit well when vaped.

 

[u bwade wunner]

Yes, yes. bOObs has been a force for us all. I take it back. I now only wish that he's at the very bottom of Alan's long, long, long list.

Kidding!! I kid because I care. I'm lol over here. bOObs knows I'd take a bullet for him (more like a bong hit, but you get the point).

 

[Jeppy]

Jeppy best of Luck Man.

Right on man. I'll save it till I need it?
