Do I need to use a downstem?

  1. Hey guys. Today I bought a new slider. But, It is too thick :confused:. It fits about a quarter way into the downstem. Would I be able to use the slider and just put it through the hole into the water? It fits in to where the downstem would go. Any suggestions?
     
  2. you need a new downstem to fit the bowl. If it is a Glass on Glass bong, then you probably have a 14.4mm low profile downstem in an 18.8mm bong joint. What you need is an 18.8mm joint to 18.8mm downstem.

    Yours probably looks like this

  3. nah its not glass on glass. the tube on the bottle of the bowl is just a little too thick for the downstem. This may sound foolish but would I be able to sand it so its less thick?
     
  4. most likely not. Also, those tubes on the non-GonG bowls tend to be really fragile so even if the glass sanded down easily, itd be a lot of work trying to not break the bowlstem.
