The Nomad From Morwood

I’ve been trying to come to the understanding that the completion of this batch may just never happen. No matter how much money it was, it was spent long ago, and I don’t think I could ever ask for a refund, no matter what the resolution might be. It’s a complex matter.
I personally can't see him just completely abandoning paid customers, no matter lack of communication.

Dan does offer refunds at any time, I believe. Any Nomad that went unclaimed could easily be auctioned/raffled off by him.
I do understand that, he’s always been upfront about refunds. But given his financial straits, and that the ostensible purpose of the Toad is to keep the cash coming in, though, I’d feel pretty bad about requesting a refund, let alone having waited all this time with nothing to show for it in the end.

This is the FOMO I think, and is the real issue, I don't think you should feel bad about asking for the money back if that is really what you want? Just so tough to decide at this point after waiting so long already!

I should clarify. I don’t want the refund. I want the Nomad I ordered and paid for.

Yes I understand, that's what I mean, I'm just describing the complex situation you mentioned, as it is in my head at least

Gotcha. Sorry if I misunderstood. Thanks.

All good, yeah it's tricky to talk about here even so that is also complex, we don't need excuses or explanations ultimately just need the product paid for because time has past either way... hopefully he will finally be able to send them off soon enough, hang in!

Dan just dropped a Nomad II update. Sounds like he’s been slowly getting back to work on the final hand sanding of the bodies. Maybe there’s still a chance we see them this year?
I say we do!

Honestly if someone were to get a refund, I think Dan should auction off that device.

If others can make crazy amounts reselling from his hard work, he might as well himself.

Dan has been open to refunding me when I've brought it up but i ultimately decided otherwise. It's too special to pass up. He has also told me he's willing to convert any nomad order to a toad order.

The color changes are really crazy!!!











I'm repeating myself but I'm really not a glass guy... yet it qualifies the experience... it's super pleasant!

Oh awesome! Is that the one from High Artisan? I have this one on the way, looks to be very similar to yours: https://highartisan.com/products/co...ble-stem-w-color-mouthpiece-milky-yoshi-cfl-4

it's the same actually 😁

I was hoping to receive the purple... but ultimately I am delighted with the color I got... and I had no idea of the effects of light!!!

and, for your information, according to my tastes, it cools my Steam very well, without sacrificing too much flavor (even if necessarily a little)

you made a great catch!!!
What device does this go with?? can you share a photo with us please? 😁




Edit :

besides there are new stems available since today...


I'm a little disgusted... I really like this red 😁

I will resist... I have to resist !

This stem is crazy!!!!

(I couldn't resist and finally grabbed an orange-red stem.)

but I'm not talking about that one...

the stem that I posted above, which can be yellow or blue... well... it can also be pink or purple...

I discovered this very late one night... it blew my mind!

light changes everything, but does anyone know how glass can have 4 different colors like that?
otherwise I'll ask Andrew...

I really can't believe it!!!

Yeah I couldn't tell you all the science, but color is based on light too, and our perception of it, glass color is made with different elements into the glass too, if not fumed with gold and silver, all of these vary piece to piece and light to light, then there is also the glass colors that are specifically reactive to different types of light like UV and CFL for color change... I have one that is a bit yellow green, and can turn a bit orange pink, so yeah four colors of range in one piece is in fact relatively normal :tup:

Neodymium glass appears pink or lilac in natural light but blue-gray in artificial light due to the interaction of neodymium ions with different light spectrums.
oh thank you very much !
I like to have a little idea of "how it works"...

so it's "just" an element added to the colorings...

incredible!


@Shit Snacks
since we're talking about glass, I was hoping to get your opinion 😉
