with my PD I also tried several things to keep the ste upright, my most often used method was a photo film cannister, but since it wasn't heavy enough it would fall over so I surrounded it with some other objects to keep it upright, but would still sometimes fall.
also used a pringlescan a few times where I punctured a hole in the lid a lottle smaller as the diaeter of the stem so it would stay stuck in it
and sometimes I just placed it horizontally with something like a pen or so under the part where the cannabis is so it wouldn't fall out
I think if you want a good solution you should look at those things to keep pens and pencils upright, like this but without the lower things

If you guys want some stem caddies I'll be happy to make them, they are something that I used to make a decent amount of but I guess I've yet to do it for the FC crowd huh? Anyways what kind of design do you guys want? Rectangular, round, shape of a 'leaf', what? Shall I make them just for stems or also with a spot for the ABV jars I include with the UDs?

I use a shotglass. A matching wooden stem holder sounds nice too.

its official! I am a downunder doggie. Got my 'vino' today.
I had a few problems, but reading the thread previously really helped with a plan to get it sorted right away.
Like all new puppies it will take some time for us to get to know each other.
At first Vino was a little cold towards me & I couldnt get really any vapor at all, even after an hour of heat time.
I played fetch with the screens for a bit, but it didnt really change anything.
So, I took 'vino'in the car. well he just loved the car didnt he? Within 5mins of being plugged in the cig socket i was blowing clouds so big i was wagging my own tail.
I then popped off & bought a new power supply that goes to 13.8v, come home & whacked a few stems.
Was ok, decent clouds, I found it a bit solo like, but with a cord that keeps falling out of the back.(shitty socket on the new power supply)
So, after a couple of hours I had another go.
I got a WPA & put that on the end of the stem & packed me a tight little typical solo load.
loaded it, and huffed away.
well I must say, it was pretty nice. still trying to get my vapebong doggie technique sorted, but got some really decent clouds. Not thick, but pretty big. But that could be the herb.
the abv looked pretty cashed, but it is lighter than the solo abv.
I will later put some of the UD abv thru the solo & see if anything is left.
I need to find a way to secure the power plug in the UD, like i said above it keeps falling out & is a PITA.
So far, I am pretty happy with the vino but definately need to spend a lot more time with him in order to apprecitate him fully. I find vapebonging a little awkward, to wield the ud needs two hands & I would still like a hand to hold the bong. I might have to experiemnt a bit with a whip & see how that goes.
thankyou dave for such a cool product. It looks awesome & packs a punch that will only get harder as we go I am sure. thankyou psyshaman for the opportunity to purchase such a fine vape.
Thankyou gonzo, OTA for the advice, you guys helped me alot.
thankyou to stroh, abysmal & gonzo for the cool vids.
also thankyou to darkrom for being the biggest one eyed fan boi I have seen in a while. Your postive raves regarding this vape were always enjoyable & informative to read.
and lastly to all those who have posted here, thankyou very much too.
all the info was right here to get my cloudface on quickstix!

Congrats on the new pup Dorkus. Would love to see some pics if you get a chance. Is your bubbler a 14mm gong or 18mm? I have found Alan's 14mm gong stems work really well with the UD and make the vaporbonging experience much easier. I plan to shoot a video of my new setup once I get a chance. It will show how easy the UD is to use with glass when using Alan's glass connection.
@ dorkus - welcome to the pack! Sounds like you're getting things dialed in but if you get stumped by anything just holler and one us will try and jump in and help. So why is the plug loose, is the new PS you got have a smaller tip than the standard one?
Alright peeps here are a few lineups of the new pieces I finished today. Some have already been seen previously and some not. A few are already claimed and are marked through accordingly. I haven't labeled them with wood types this time as I just don't have the time but you guys can just refer to them by # if you have questions. These pieces will go up on the website as soon as I can get them there (tonight or tomorrow) along with a bunch of other site updates, the next batch of a similar amount of pieces will be finished in 2-3 days and will be posted and added to the site then. Enjoy!

over the years some peeps have implied i am a hard man at times. well this is one of those times.
Vino was being awkward & difficult to handle when vapebonging.
I decided I needed to whip Vino. and whipped his ass i did!
Now before you all go and report me to dave, it was neccessary & vino is a better dog for it.
granted its not pretty. (pics soon)
But now my puppy is smacking my 18mm inline & perc harder than my solo does. Harder than my DBV does, and well sadly my poor ol HA2.1 aint even in the race.
I used my DBV tubing & a WPA, and some serious cloudage followed, and quite a few 'wow's followed the exhales.
I am super blazed, and pretty darn happy.
EDIT- @dave- its just a shitty chinese crap plug (it comes with 10 different tips & you pick the one that fits, so it was always going to be crap I guess)

@Dorkus - I would love to see your whip wet up when you have time to post some pics. Been experimenting with a whip myself but still not getting the results I was looking for.
I've got some high-end pieces in the works, probably have some of those done this weekend.. but first I have to finish the second batch of standard piece and UberTwigs like these. Stay tuned..

I just cut the UD stem in half. the clear fitting between the 2 acts more as a sleeve. if I did a better job, I could eliminate it from the airpath I think.
anyway, its a piece of silicone tube purchased ages ago when I was pimping my HA2.1.
I bought it at a specialist rubber & tubing place. I checked to see if it was safe for what I wanted it for, I cant remember the specs, but it was ok.
I reckon one of daves glass stems would do a ripper of a job at being able to carry a whip hose of some kind.
(could anyone with a SSV/ DBV & Ud with glass stems check?)
pulling pretty cool clouds & I will try harder to make it a bit less macgyver & a bit more mainstream sheik. lolz

Glad you are enjoying Vino dorkus!!! She saw very little love in my house only being turned on a few times as my Bluegum Tortuga UD is driven daily here.
There is something about the 'Hamburger' (as we've nicknamed my tortuga) that outshone my other pack members. Maybe because it is Aussie wood that went a on a long journey and was returned in a magnificent form!
Vino was an amazing ornament on my shelf that was begging for you to huff clouds from! Wasn't easy to let her go but she's gone to a loving owner now
The grain on those sections is amazing, you cannot fault Daves wookworking! He surely knows how to make a great Vaporizer!

Yay, new dogs in town!
Congrats & yw Dorkus! Does your loose plug have the two prongs on each side to hug the pin in the UD socket or is a prong-less one like the one on the car adapter? If you have the prongs you can try bending a little more towards the center to make it fit tighter.
So 13,8V does the trick for you? I should get on that myself. I had a nice session with the pup, the car adapter, and some kief yesterday, but I had to tuck it in again to get the ABV darker and all the goodies out.
Mine is a bit smaller than yours, but I usually hold mine with the bottom in the palm of my hand when holding it to the bong, perhaps that works for you as well.
Also, it looks like you can take out the 7thfloor tubing completely and pair your 18mm GonG with that thicker silicon sleeve you have on there directly.
Dave, those caddies sound great, I'm kinda in to round things myself lately for some reason. Have you got some photo's of previous ones you made to show off perhaps?
Also, I really like 1C, 4C and 7C, glad I do not have to choose again

Great Scott!
Dorkus glad you like it lol. As for fan boy I absolutely am and I'm proud, though I do own another vape (and possibly a third soon) yet dozens of others in the past. One thing is for sure the UD isn't going to become a "past vape" for me. It'll always have a place in my home
I'm sure you will grow to love it even more over time. That is a pretty sweet setup. I know we had a few arguments in the solo thread, but nothing I can't still respect you over that's for sure. Enjoy that awesome setup you have there. I'm jealous lol.

lolz- we never had any arguements darkrom, only vigorous discussions from alternate points of view.
