Will this be a good setup? (first time)

Hey guys, I really wanna get into taking dabs and am trying to acquire everything required.

I have a weedstar double bubbler and I wanted to know if this will be a bad choice or not for concentrates... The reason I ask is the bowl is already pretty high and once I add a male to male joint/nail/dome, It would already be above my eye line.

Is this something I should be concerned about? Or should I pick up another small traditional bong that has the bowl much lower.... Or maybe a skilled with one of those bent domes that would place everything much lower.

Can you post a pic?

Dabs usually work best in smaller pieces. Better taste. In my toro my dome/nail is about as tall as the mouthpiece and it works fine

here is a pic I googled of the weedstar bubbler.. (sold here on GC)... you can see how high up the bowl is.


Also, I picked up a worked 18mm dome, glass nail and an extractor tube for $40 (good deal?) ... just need a male to male joint, torch and butane ... Almost there.

My friend had the same bub with the circ downstem n we used to dab out of it occasionaly. Itll work fine but that circs got a little to much diffusion and you wont taste the bho as much as i like to. It would probly work better than any bong 12 inches or taller, so i would just use that til you want to pick up a nice lil oil rig.
Also about the dome being above your eyeline, it might take some getting used to, but if youve got an 18mm Ti nail itll be hard to miss after a while. But a glass nail is a lot smaller and ive lost a few dabs by missing the hole in the nail and watching my dab melt off the side:(

I figured it would be too much diffusion, thats why I was planning on just filling one chamber with water. The second chamber one is just an open downstem and that all I was going to use.

anyways, I picked up a worked dome and glass nail and decided Im not going to use it. I placed an order for a domeless Ti nail. It should keep the height of the nail at a minimum and less stuff to worry about.

pm me if anyone is interested in my dome/glass nail

now Im on the hunt for butane and torch and I shall be set. Going with either a 9$ harbor freight torch or a creme brulee torch that is <$30

whats the best deals on butane for bho?

If that harbor freight torch is propane, you dont want to use that with a Ti nail. Itll oxidize the titanium really quick. And as far as butane id say look around amazon and try to find a good deal on a box of cans(make sure the butane is usable and doesnt contain certain chemicals that are no good for bho. Sorry i dont have the link to where you can check every companies' butane contents.) Vector is my go to and would recommend it if you can afford it. The quintuple refined is nice.
