The J-hook thread!

[ataxian]

Has she been offering this J-Hook very long? I remember it not looking like this
http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/s-shape-smoking-water-pipe-glass-attachment/166179794.html

Pretty sure I remember it actually looking 'S' shaped..
But maybe some Lotus users like @ataxian or @jojo0420 would have interest in this?

EDIT:
It is 14mm not 18mm

I like the mouth piece!
Thanks for the link!

This is the exact same one that Thick-Ass-Glass sells except theirs is 18.8mm. I've bought two of them.

This one is on Amazon now. Only 24$, comes with a non-gong ash catcher. Looks like the blue ones are OOS.

I wonder if OGB would do a 18mm one?

I got this one, with 18mm. Seems very good, better curve than the photo here.
My hubby loves using it with the EVO... just upside down, right on top, and hit it. Works pretty good! Cools a bit more than the straight mouthpiece, and I like this mouthpiece better.
The blue one, the 14mm, will be used with the Nano, when that one arrives.

Been using mine like that too. Upside down on top of the Cloud+. I can't handle the straight mouthpiece at all, too hot on my lips.

Would you mind posting a pic of this j-hook? Thinking about ordering the $13 iOffer one but you might convince me otherwise. If not, no biggie. I like the curve, looks almost like the Lotus j-hook.

Thought I would throw some links up I came across today.....

Cheaper J-Hook

Nicer Cheaper J-Hook

Tell him to use rounded tip spikes instead of balls. It will eliminate the phallic-nes of it. Itll get that alien edge that way.

A little less "phallicy" but male jointed.

That is what I'm looking for, but in 18mm.
Thanks for bringing me back to this thread!

I want to buy one from them, been sold out.
I'm looking for an 18 mm J Hook where the GonG connection is 3"-4" lower than the mouthpiece.
Anyone got any leads?

I saw this video that @SnidelyWhiplash made recently and thought that considering the effort put into it I should repost it in this thread. Also the J-Hook itself is pretty awesome. Props to Colie Glass for making something a bit more interesting than a standard scientific J-Hook.

Here's the original post just in case anyone is interested.

I only have 3 SHERLOCKS (JHOOKS) & use all 3.
At night when "INSOMNIA" wakes me up I found a cure:

DRY PATH gets the job done!
Not bad for $11.00! (JHOOK)

 

[placetime]

I fell this needs to be in this thread

edit forgot to say its spill proof

Price? Where'd ya get it?

 

[as]

I don't own it but hit up original glass from the UK he will also do all sorts of custom stuff to it as well I believe @Gray Area has a modified hydro tube version of it I think the one in the via go's for £100

 

[RUDE BOY]

Been using my14mm J-hook from HNSW Glass with the Hammer, very nice cool big hits with a roaring sound.
The one I received is a bit larger then I thought it would be, the mouthpiece side stands about 10" still small and sweet enough.

Found a j hook on dhgate, $22.70 for 5 of them. Wish there was an option to buy 1 or 2 though.

Thick-Quality-Glass has them. Pretty sure it is the exact same j-hook but 18mm instead.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Found this on hellawicked. Whole new level of j hook

I think this is a natty perc tube and not intended for dry use? The reducer/ice pinch helps prevent splashing up to your mouth. If used dry it's a monster of a j-hook though

I do the same thing with my Solo!! I load my PVGonG and put it in, then my j-hook goes on top and I hit it. It's got some holes for swirling the vapor and it really cools it down!

This is an old picture before I bought my 18mm PVGonG, but the same concept!! Your husband is a smart man

On the high end... but nifty for a lotus...

J-Hook has arrived!!! Custom touches from Jesse at Lotus Glassworks: http://www.lotusglass.com AMAZING!!! Crystal clear & flawless!!! Gorgeous to look at and feels so wonderful in the hand!!!

 

[Snappo]

!!!New custom reclaimer for my Lotus/J-Hook assembly, made by Mike at Oregon Glass Blowers - OUTSTANDING work!!!

 

[stickstones]

@Snappo Insane! I covet! Does it stand up on its own? How much was all of it?

@Snappo Insane! I covet! Does it stand up on its own? How much was all of it?

stickstones - right about an even hundred for the whole shebang! I couldn't be more satisfied!

EDIT: No - doesn't stand up, but it does lay down sweetly (steadily) with bowl in the air and mouth on the surface. Even if it did stand upright I wouldn't chance knocking it over. Distance of the Lotus cap & torch are perfect distance from the eye - no strain!!! Below ...as you can see, I dabble in oils too!

Seen this today on reddit. Thought it looked pretty cool, never seen a wooden j-hook. Here is the original artist's Imgur gallery

"Cherry, bamboo, red heart for the mouth piece and maple burl for the accents (plugs)."

Said it ran him $50

 

[SSVUN~YAH]

I thought we were all you needed @Fenton Mewley the shame...

Did you see that today, @Tweak lol couldn't resist...
