Hi all, I'm going to order a new tube as a bday present to myself. Right now I'm looking at a 9mm US Tubes straight shooter with the 24mm joint. Anyone have any other recommendations around that price (~$300). I'm also considering a Toro bub with mini frothelator, but the 9mm glass is so tempting. Also, which downstem is smoother, the 7 arm diffuser or the showerhead?
It will be a different hit, but the showerhead will most likely be a little smoother and really comes down to preference. You've got enough cash for most brands out there, so just take a look around and do some dry pulls at some shops if possible. Oh, and everyone on here is going to tell you to buy Sovereignty ..
id go with a sovereignty stemline,or a king stem,or an SGW waffle. or a custom tube from smileyagent. hes been putting out alot of cool shit lately and his work is getting really good.check out his thread: http://forum.grasscity.com/toking-tools/883050-glassblowing-progression-54.html
i have a 9mm straight beaker. thing is my baby and could bludgeon someone to death and still rip. literally so durable tossing it in a backpack is all thats needed
pretty well settled on a US Tube now. checked out the thread and saw some of the build a tube's with the bubbler option, was very impressed with that. so now i'm thinking either -7 mm straight purple build a tube -7 mm stemless build a tube -9 mm straight tube thoughts?
