Suprised you huh
The "Stunner"
- Thread starter tinctorus

That was my thinking as well. I've done a few bowls with no issues so far so my guess is it's not needed.
You shouldn't but I always recommend running a swab thru the stem just incase the cleaner didn't get everything

Alright, this thing is impressive 
Bit of learning to it (back to spinning 
), but dialing it in 2nd day. I've yet to experience a "harsh" native pull. Perfect bowl size and love the huge mouthpiece with big bore! Agree about the carbon stem being good with heat and the blunt references. I'm calling the Fusion more like a tight(er) joint now 
Tried the long wood Dani stem initially, but that got hot. Really wish that intercooler would have fit into the carbon. Not that it needs cooling, but to keep particles out of the throat. No prob though as I domed a 10mm screen, got it finessed a bit in the end, then used the mouthpiece to push it in like SO.
The red o-rings on the bowl seem to just a bit to thin and it can shake in there sometimes. Hard to unscrew the cap if it's spinning with it. I swapped out the ones that came installed which helped, and I found by gently twisting it in helps too. Maybe some usage is needed for the stem to adjust? Did combust using the high flow with water for the first run .. stupidly tried a 2 step heating technique that was overkill. A tolerable bad rip at least, lol.
Dumb ? What's the easiest way to remove the thick screen holding the balls in place? It's in there good and I've only tried gently lifting it/moving it with a poker.

Just finally managed to combust, also pushing the limit with a freshly filled torch with my first twax
Loving this thing
I use snap ring pliers to thread them down but you can also use fine point tweezers or pliersAlright, this thing is impressive

If you're planning to remove the screen holding the balls to deep clean because of the combustion, I might just try soaking the entire tip in iso for a while (remove the o-rings) then a bit of soapy water and a rinse. Should do the trick.
Yeah it's not necessary to take the screen out for cleaning, just toss the whole head on iso and let it soak, I toss it in while it's hot for a bit of help, then just shake out the iso and let it dry or torch it dry as long as it's not full of iso

This thing looks cool and kinda crazy
Is it the glass tube wrapped in wire that is the IH active coil?

I did throw that cap in iso after combusting. Pre heat is a good idea for next time. The normal cap’s screen was in a bit crooked & not far down enough (still functional though). I managed to twist it out with some sharp wire cutters & umph. Couldn’t get it back in at all, so stopped fighting it and a 1/2 mesh will snuggle up there nicely with some practice. Tried some 3.5mm zirc for grin’s but will be putting the 3’s back in 
Yeah it's a arizer connoisseur bowl as a glass insert because it has a stopper in itThis thing looks cool and kinda crazy

Sometimes they can be a little tricky but the screens should thread down in the cap,I did throw that cap in iso after combusting. Pre heat is a good idea for next time.

Wondering if anyone else has had this issue: all of a sudden, my screens are crazy loose and won’t snap into the bottom of the bowl. They just fall out if I turn it over. I got my device a week ago. Literally thought to myself wow I love how easy it is to put the screen in… just locks in right where I need much easier than dynavap ccd, for instance. I’ve gone through a few screens combusting and all fit the same.
Now today I combust, pop the screen out into the garbage, soak the bowl in iso and rinse it, and now the same sized screens just fall out. Tried like 5 of them, aftermarket and the ones provided with the stunner. None will stay in enough to use it at all. Wondering if I could’ve somehow popped off a piece of the metal and didn’t notice, but that sounds too weird to happen this quick. I know I could just get bigger screens and jam them in there, but that’s not the point. How is this possible?

Ran into the same issue with a few of my screens. I frayed the edges of the screen lightly with my finger so they can grip the edge of the bowl and that resolved it for me.

no inverted dome lolI kind of like how the screen falls out each time I dump a bowl. More abv falls out after it, can blow out any more in the stem, and a chance to scrape the screen. I’m “doming” screens for this & the Dani’s alike to give a little space at the bore entrance too
I was reading and starting to wonder if the new units had a bigger bowl till I got to post...

Wanted to see if anyone else has had the same problem as me and found a solution. My stunner is to loose to fit in any stem. I have tried my Dani Fusion and High Artisian and the thing will just fall out. Tried o-rings from 1mm up to 2mm thickness and none worked. The 1.5 and 2mm o rings will not stay in the groove as it is machined for a 1mm o ring.
The couple times I tried it was pretty awesome but you have to hold it perfectly vertical. Hope I can figure out a solution as this thing is pretty awesome. Any chance you could do a run an mirror the dimensions of the fusion tip where it connects to the stem?
