Hey, it's from @Kalu. Arizona Ironwood, lined with glass.

Lovely glass @BushRanger . Where is that from?
Whilst I enjoy the titanium stock stem, imo glass can't be beaten for taste and cooling.

Oh, hi there!
I assume the WPA sits in there lightly enough for a Reload to pull it out no problem? My fingers have concerns haha
Hello put it on something stable like a wooden board tip side up mouthpiece side on something stable push heatshield down
best regards
I've attempted that already with no luck. There's a bit of movement but not enough to release it. I've guessing the previous owner didn't use no lube on the o-rings and never took it apart so it's seized on the o-ringHello put it on something stable like a wooden board tip side up mouthpiece side on something stable push heatshield down
best regards
Have you tried heating it up to make the metal expand a little first?
I just got it off with wooden dowl that fit perfectly and heated the body. It ended up popping out. I was genuinely starting to think I had made up the idea of it being in 2 pieces

I wouldn't try pulling the WPA out with a magnet, due to risk of tipping the glass...but yes, this WPA is very low profile, gotta pay attention when lifting. It does sometimes make you feel the heat...at the cost of looking sleeker.
@Brenyo Can you use the v2 indicator with the v1 upgrade kit? Saw that the v2 indicators were available in silver. If not, is there any way to get the green color of the new visual indicator in the v1 upgrade kit`? Or can you still use the v1 visual indicator with the rest of the upgrade kit?
Yes, the V1 upgrade kit includes the V2 pointer in green.

Ah, so you can just buy the v2 pointer in silver and use that for the v1 upgrade kit
?

Every manual device I’ve ever seen, will discolor, no matter how it’s heated. An IH definitely gives it a lighter, more even discoloration though. I actually like how my Tempests and Tornado look after some use in the Wand. It almost has a bronzed look to the heads.

I wanted to post this so people that are familiar with Scruffy cooling stands realize that the tempest v1 and v2 have different size heads. In realizing this and since I love them both so much I decided to get a dual stand for them. Then another for my tornado these are copper inserts with an aluminum body. It was my fav combo with the 2 stands I already had been using for a while.

how do you like that shape? i've admired it for a while. i'm imagining i'd want to hold it right in front of that ridge which might make it feel tip heavy, where do you grab it?
@TheUniBowler yep, you can message @Aezhenn here or hit them up on ig, which is what i do:

But ya know, if you get that stem you might just end up with the full Labet Komp leather and Scruffy Woofers stand setup. Its a slippery slope.....
