Posted these pics in a few other threads but wanted to share with my fellow Vrippers

Gorgeous!

Stonemonkey those bubbles look incredible.

Can i ask what kinda wand heater cover you're using in your Youtube vid. It looks real strong. Is that a new prototype? Or a home job?

 

[minnesnowta]

Its completly custom. You gotta know a blower that would be willing to attempt it. Would be very spendy too.

 

[manchild]

Ok thanks minnesnow!

Gee that would be an awsome thing to get done but yeah i imagine it would be damn hard and pricey.

Hi all,

I'm not at all familiar with water tools so I hope someone here can help me. I looking to mate an ash catcher with the VHW. The joint size is 18.8 and the recommended diffuser is 15 or 15.5 cm.

Can I assume that I will need a 14.5 diffuser?

What's the difference between 14.5 and 18.8?

Do I use the upper intake for VCB HG? HG is stands for?

Does the VCB connect to the bowl of the ashcatcher?

 

[justvape]

your best bet is just to get a bong, an ash catcher is a lil over kill and you need a bong to connect to it.
you can buy a defusor separately you need an 18.8 vrip bowl if you intend to use the ash catcher .

if you plan on getting a vhw do not get the HG bowl that for the heat gun get the regular glass on glass one

Thx I do plan on a bong, just want the ease of cleaning it. So an ash catcher would be overkill?

It seems that I would need a 15 or 15.5 diffuser not sure how big the bowl would be but I think the standard would be a medium from what I read which is 22. I'm still unsure tho by all of this. I've read the whole thread and not many answers to my questions.

 

[stonemonkey55]

the downstem that comes with the VWT accepts 14.4 ashcatchers.

If you don't want to filter thru two bodies of water but want to clean your waterpipe clean, you can add an ashcatcher but just don't put water into it.

If you get a non Vriptech bong, then depending what you get, you will need either a 14.4 or 18.8 ashcatcher

I like 18.8 better....more air flow

Thx. Do you think that the double filter will filter out too much? I saw urdoingitwrong's video did he get that upper bowl from vriptech?

The ash catcher joint I was looking at is only 18.8. The diffuser that the was recommended was either 15 or 15.5 to mate the water tool, not sure why.

 

[stonemonkey55]

are you getting a vriptech water tool? If so, it comes with a down steam that fits into an 18.8 but accepts 14.4.... if that makes sense. I beleive those are called bushing downsteams...someone correct me if I am wrong..you can just ask for an 18.8 downsteam for the 18.8 ashcatcher...

i personally dont think much thc is lost in the water...whether single, double, or triple chamber, just more drag.

I have not seen urdoingitwrong's video but i think it might be a custome blazemaster... link me

I really appreciate you walking me through this stonemonkey!

The one I plan to get is a RR 45cm from EDIT, it recommends getting that length diffuser. Do you think the 18.8 will still pair up ok? I was thinking about that just wasn't sure.

Here is the link to urdoingitwrong's video.

[organicmilk]

Did you feel the vapor wash over you? Hehe

 

[minnesnowta]

All right if your buying it from EDIT it will come with a downstem no matter what. If you want to add a diffuser(a downstem with holes or slits) that's the length you'll need. If you don't want to drop the money on it don't. When you choose it you should be able to select either 14 or 18 and that's what size bowl you'll need and if you wanted an a/c that's the size you need. All roors other than the zumos have a 18.8 on the bong itself. I'd recomend going 18.8 as well because it's much easier to get a bushin adapter to allow you to use 14 slides. As compared to having to buy a whole new downstem in 18.8

Urdoingitwrong has a gong vcb looked like 18mm but I could be wrong. As log as you figure put which size bong you want youll be able to choose the vcb.

Hope this helps if you got anymore questions well help you out

 

[stonemonkey55]

what is the RR 45 CM? if you can link me that, that will help me out - the guy at EDIT will let you know whether you need a 14.4 ashcatcher or 18.8

the bowl that Urdoingitwrong is from Vriptech and required to work with the VHW - are you located in the US or Europe?

If you are in US you will need this to start - VHW + http://www.vriptech.com/Merchant2/m...VR&Product_Code=VCBS_18_8mm&Category_Code=VHW

heat wand + VRIPteach bowl + waterpipe - ready to go!

 

[lepstadder]

Just ordered one of these, cant wait to use it

Got a small us tubes with a 3 arm tree perc and ice pinch to use with it

A 14.mm joint and diffused dwn stem

 

[minnesnowta]

I think he meant roor. That's what I assumed anyways. I dunno what a RR is either

Any idea why the specific length for the diffuser 15 or 15.5?

I've read going all glass tends to restict the air flow. I'm assuming the a/c is all glass. Can I still use the Vriptech upper chamber for the bowl on the a/c? I'm referring to the link you added. I only see that it sells the two together.I think I remember reading that it only comes together.

Thx for all the help guys.

For the diffuser.. i'd go with the 15cm... better shorter than longer.

All glass restricts airflow? Airflow has nothing to do with glass airpaths.. maybe the size of the airpaths, but whether it were rubber or plastic... airflow would be the same.

The AC is all glass... I think you should do more research before purchasing anything. The AC is honestly... useless if you planning on using it with the VHW only. If you plan on combusting, then the ash catcher is useful for what it was made for... catching ash. It'll only make your setup clunkier and more pieces to clean if you're only vaping.

You can buy the upper and lower assemblies for the VCB separate IIRC, but you need both pieces to make it work.. the upper will not fit and work properly on the stock RooR bowls. I'd recommend going with a cheaper piece than the RooR you're looking at now, or please do more research before buying. I'd hate to see you waste your money. Honestly there are a lot cheaper pieces that would suit your needs better....

 

[minnesnowta]

Couldn't have said anything better myself. That is a ton of money to be dropping. But if that's what you want go for it. You probaly should be lookin into stuff a little more before you go jumpin in. I'd do alot of different things if I had 900 to drop on glass.

 

[organicmilk]

I'm absolutely clueless about bongs, I've been using the VTower for the past year and want to move on from that. I will look into it more.

Much appreciated.

Hope this info helped you in your purchase, honestly to begin with this is the route I would take, cheap and easy

 

[lepstadder]

for 900 bones i would buy a hamm scientifc

 

[minnesnowta]

Shit for 900 you could buy a hops bubbler and a glycerin disk diffused toro. I'd just get the economic stimulous package. 300 and you have absolutely everything you need and you don't need to wait for multiple shipments.

No smoke had a nice starter set up as well. The vcb shoulda been 18 though. Just gotta find out wha size slide the bong takes and your good to go. Im sure multiple people could set you up win everything for less than what you were gonna pay for just the bong. I just paid 220 for a beaker the same size but thicker so there are deals to be had. Just gotta know where to look.

And no smoke your a lil early on that swing bud. That's not even in existance yet
