I'm looking into buying my first bong. I'm willing to spend about $200. I browsed around here and saw some recommendations for SSFG and Apix. I recently got in contact with Dan D. (ApixDesign) and he said he could make me a stemline to disk or stemline to double disk for that price. Alternatively, I could get a gridded stemline and inline AC from SSFG for just about the same price. I could also get a 14 inch beaker with a showerhead downstem and inline AC from SSFG for around that much. Curious, which would you all go for? Does anyone have any of these pieces that could link me some videos / give first hand advice? Thanks. The picture is the stemline to disk that Dan said he'd be able to make me. It might be facing the wrong direction -that's how I received it on my phone. For some reason me editing it on my phone doesn't fix its orientation when uploaded here. Edit: The mobile app won't upload the picture for whatever reason. Use your imagination!
[quote name='"flammzrant"']Dans the man[/quote] Yeah, he's been awesome. I submitted a question through his website last night and he got back to me within 5 minutes, literally.

Yep. Perfect disk placement imo and he hasn't done many more like the disk in mine, if any. Most have 3-7 holes, mine has around 30.
dan no longer take customs he is doing prodo stuff now but ssfg or dan once he starts pumping out some nice quality prodo tubes is a good choice
[quote name='"bballplayyaa"'] If its just clear it's prodo and Dan makes it. And to the OP it's Dan D[/quote] The pictures he sent me are of clear tubes, nothing on them. I still don't know why I can't upload them from my phone, and I'm out of town until Tuesday. Also, I said Dan D to make sure you guys knew who I was talking about =P. What does prodo mean, though?
[quote name='"bballplayyaa"'] Dans new ones have like 20-30 holes[/quote] Yah, the disks on my puckline have like 50-60 holes each

[quote name='"Hollow Crown"'] Prodo = production[/quote] Is a production tube different from any other tube he'd make?
[quote name='"Backordered"'] Is a production tube different from any other tube he'd make?[/quote] No, those are tubes that acquire no custom work so that means he can produce them faster.
