The one one with the fat can, is the smoothest, hardest hitting lil mofo you will find. Bought it at a big smoke shop in Carlsbad for $31.00. The blue one is 8” tall.

Thats cool it lights up, the peaks do hit pretty well for a vape.

I'm curious to see how long the atomizer lasts you though. I've been reading tons of reports about these peaks for the last couple years now.

I think it has a lot to do with people improperly using them. You have to place the dabs at the bottom of the ceramic bowl before you heat up. I see a lot of people just placing it on the side or trying to dab it as if it were a regular piece ie placing it on the side after its heated up. Also cleaning the unit everyother day or every 20-30 dabs helps. Last but not least you cant hit it like its a bong, longer slower puffs give you a thicker vapor and keeps your atomizer cleaner.

Lol then again ive heard of atomizers being DOA so all the cleaning in the world wont help with that

As for the hits with the terp rubies and the directional flow carb cap it hits like a beast.

Thats funny, I'm reading the opposite reviews everywhere I look. I was considering getting one, but no way now. I dont even dab very much anyways, but damn I just keep seeing bad reviews.

got a link to your glasswork anywhere?

those are my favorite. My daily driver/bed bowl is a lil 15 dollar waterpipe just like your can. bent neck, small can body, just fuckin' rips. Looking to find somebody to make a headier version of it without asking 500 dollars.

The peak doesn't hit like a regular nail, but the one I tried worked great. They are pretty expensive though for what they are. I would much rather spend the $400 on quality hand made glass then an import electronic vape. I have some pictures of my glass posted on my thread in my sig line. I don't advertise on here, or sell to members here yet. I am still living in a non legal state, and its important to me to keep my life as separate/protected as possible since I have a family.

$500 really isn't bad for something "heady". Glass work takes tons of time, physical labor in very hot conditions, and has EXTREMELY high overhead. Nice colored glass costs between $50-200 a pound depending on the color, and thats just in the raw form before its worked.

yep, i'm aware. I have some artists I regular, and I have some worked tubes from them I picked up around 200 that go for at least 5 in the shops. I just mean I'd rather go direct with an artist than support a middleman. I understand glass is art and all, but I still have a limit on what I'll spend to smoke weed out of. I'm not looking to flex, just own things I enjoy.

edit: missed your first part of that lol. Yeah I understand you totally, I am the same way, gotta stay safe. I also dont really take concentrates on the go, so I have no problem torching up a banger in my basement. I have a ball diffuser rig right now which i am loving, 20 bucks and hits as nice as any "heady american blown" rig I have used.

For sure man I feel you. I only have a couple collector pieces, that were a few hundred. Mostly I use stuff I made that has defects so I couldn't sell it :). You obviously get it, but so many people don't realize how much it costs to make glass in the US. They see import pipes online and at some head shops for dirt cheap prices, and think all glass should be cheap. The simple aspect of making the glass in this country automatically quadruples the cost of manufacture.

those are all the same assholes who have never and will never create a piece of anything in their life because they lack the ambition or drive or intelligence to put themselves out there and A. take a hard look at anything that is challenging to them, and B. find any way to express a response that is anything other than the basic range of human emotion.

I'm starting to realize that a lot of things in this world are like cilantro. Chemically there are just some things people will like/get and not. Recently it was the band Earth. Some people just genuinely do not "get" drone music, and that is okay. Now its art, in any of its forms. Some people are just cheap shitty humans, most likely the offspring of other shitty, trashy, and I suppose generally uneducated humans. There will just be no reasoning with them, because they are just chemically inclined to be garbage.
