So: Click http://goo.gl/mmGEq and be sure to say hi :) Probably on most all day today and tomorrow. Plan to make some colored tubing, a few sherlocks, and then work on bubblers for once......

But it actually broke right where the clear part meets up with the green handle. The clear part btokr into a few pieces but the green part is still intact

Actually I've seen some plasma lighting that is very promising. Problem is for the good "horticultural" ones there like 3k$

I followed one grow on here with a plasma. He got it discounted for 700$. He did a side by side with a 1000 watt hps.

The results of the test were not exact and couldn't be exclusive because the clones were 2 weeks apart in age but the plasma did just as well if not better than the hid considering the age diff.

Can't wait to see more

Can't wait to see the oil bubbler either. I don't think I've seen an inline one, don't understand fully either so I'm curious.

Gonna be making some plushberry oil soon.

hey where do you get all of your supplies at for glass blowing?
Depends on the sales each glass company is having. Usually you can get 30% off of clear, 30-35% off of color, etc..... mountainglassarts.com is #1, glasscraft, ust, trevsglass, etc..... Try to buy where you live close to, shipping is expensive otherwise.

My first "functional-that-didnt-get-thrown-into-the-trash" inline oil bubbler..... The design is meant for oil, however I will make a double female 14mm adapter so a regular slide can smoke herb through this as well. Inline refers to the lower tube that sits horizontally. Rather than it bubbling down, it bubbles in-line with the can. The reason for inlines other than a different look, is that they pull a hit with *very* little effort or "chugging" of bubbles. There are 4 openings in the worked inline stem. The tubing is rainbow with black/white jailhouse style and super unobtanium accents....

There's a lot I will change on the next ones, after having done this. So, this one is already used and now just for me. ;)
