The J-hook thread!

[Caketron]

I can make 18mm joint versions if wanted, and that would be cool, been making these for almost 15 years and I have never made an 18mm one yet!

I think this is the way. @coolbreeze has a point with the convenience of cleaning the reducer

 

[XoGnosis]

got pic posting sorted a trifecta of fresh glass art I concocted!

and that center one has landed in its forever home.
So far I've only used it dry with the tornado and ZX, but it's great that way. the 3 hole perc adds just enough resistance - I think I may prefer it to my traditional, more open j hooks. I'll add additional thoughts once I've had some time to get to know it, but first impression is that it's very nice indeed.

Wow! Marvelous color! You gotta try these with a sunset hitting the glass, beautiful

As a fan of cheap adaptability, my main J-Hook setups are built around small globes (lab flasks)—mostly in the 10 ml to 50 ml range. I combine these with a handful of straight and curved glass stems/extensions, usually 6" to 10" long, with a mix of male and female joints. This lets me chain pieces together as needed to dial in the exact configuration I’m after, whether that’s tighter cooling, longer vapor paths, or just experimenting with different airflow and resistance profiles. It’s a flexible, modular approach that keeps things affordable and easy to tweak. If you're into customizing your experience without committing to a fixed glass, this kind of setup might be worth exploring.

Nice, i’ve been eyeing up one of those hammers

Apparently one of them is available! They had him make three, but are only buying two of them...

 

[BushRanger]

Thing is, the one with red legs was like first prototype, third leg was added after for example...so it's available at pharrowglass for discounted price of 95$. I believe that's a steal if you like the style and wanna save some bucks.
We still getting three pieces with a buddy of mine, only making a new third piece.

Made my second dry piece, the one on the left has only a 14mm joint, the right one has a three hole diffuser too.

Jacob Carson on Instagram: "Tall one on the left just has a joint, no diffuser, dry style. Both 14mm"

Been using my Purr corncob bubbler dry with my IO Hornet, so in that way of thinking I just ordered a TAG J-hook.

 

[Shit Snacks]

Steal. These are pretty great for another fun standing dry/wet hook style, still love mine

I've got this up on my IG today, still at a great deal, ends later today. If anyone is interested, you can DM me here, or go to my IG to check it out if you like

Probably already been mentioned here, but this N3RD Glass 14mm piece (link) provides surprisingly good cooling, I'm guessing because of the 90-degree angles and moderate restriction:

n3rd is a good old buddy of mine, online for decades, and I met him at a glass event one time too, good guy!

Ha, I was going to post this! There is a slightly better price at this site (I ordered the 14mm from here.) https://artdogsandgrace.com/products/dry-sipper-rig-by-n3rd-glass

Just received my first glass delivery ever! (also my first use of dhgate, I feel like I'm really becoming one of the gang! lol)

Never owned any glass before I got my Lotus and it's included j-hook early in the year. It just wasn't a thing for me before, I could roll a mean spliff so I was sorted, friends who couldn't might've had a small smoking pipe and there was sometimes the odd bong (a homemade copper bong and a nasty green straight one made of plastic???!!!??? come to mind) but culturally it was all spliffs. Later I got into vaping and I didn't ever see the need.

And then came the Lotus. Watching the vapour flow through the glass is just fun, and the cooling aspect, we loved it here in the pangolin shed.
Then I remembered I had recently bought the wpa for the Roffu. Tried that, Roffu came alive, we loved that too. So decided to get some more j-hooks.

Got 3 of these

And 2 of these

Not very fancy of course. Love all the fanciness in this thread.

Anybody have any tips for carrying j-hooks? Going on a camping holiday shortly and was wondering if you had any packing tips or hints.

Depending on the size of the hook you can look into these :

Waterproof MAX001V Black

157 x 82 x 41 mm

www.maxcases.nl

Waterproof MAX002V Black

210 x 140 x 50 MM

www.maxcases.nl

Waterproof MAX003V Black

316 x 195 x 53 mm

www.maxcases.nl

They have matching pluck foam inserts.
Here is the Herborizer Sherlock inside the MAX002 :

 

[Pangolin 6]

Oh yeah, they are nice. I'd feel pretty important carrying one of those around

For now though I'll probably be using bubble wrap and care!
