I wanted to go all out with the killadelph, however 4000 is alot od money on one peice. So the rasta coil will fit me good. I am also wanting to get this ash catcher in red. I have one like it but it is not a disc. My dillema is, i have never smoked out of one. And would like to hear some stories GC has on them. Like coil getting stuck, drag, practical use, etc. before i drop a stack+. Id would like to hear real freedback on it. Cheers.
[quote name='"HBGBUB"']I'm glad you came to your senses haha[/quote] You should still try and snap a pic of the one at your shop. I always like seeing Salt collabs!
I will the next time I'm in there may even be pics of it in a thread somewhere in gc. Maybe in my thread hold on ill go check
Meh. My general impression with illadelphs. Glycerin coils had an early reputation for failure and to me are a pointless gimmick. It will have drag, it will kill flavor.
[quote name='"HBGBUB"']I'm glad you came to your senses haha[/quote] Thanks.for your two.cents. Yeah i am going for.the rasta coil. I am new to this site and you guys are really awesome for giving your input. You were right i will get the coil first then get my own custom concentrate peice.
http://forum.grasscity.com/bongs-bubblers-water-pipes/972589-hbgbubs-glass-pick-up-thread-23.html There are pics on page 23 that link might bring you right to it. No problem man. Like dirt said they seem like they could break easy, I mean freeze and thaw isn't good for glass. But if you're really serious its your money. Also check out pyrology. They have a website. They make glycerin coils too and they're cheaper than illadelph with the same quality
I'm not sure that's the best choice for the cash. So many other brands offer far better pieces for far less.
I found a red and a black coil at a shop in fort worth(called 6 differant shops) i can get one for 750. I also found some red, blue, black. Showerhead ashcatchers for 250. Il post pics of whatever i decide to get.. Red coil with black catcher.. Or black on black... Black on red... Hmmm

I also threw in a pic of my other illadelphs

Here is more illadelph product from my local shop and more of what I got including my zob which is very nice but no coil
Well, lots of people had those marbles falling off, but I guess you see more complaints than lauds for products. To the second part, what do you consider high end?
I have smoked out of roors, Medicalis, zobs, and illadelphs all of which I consider quality pieces. They all have there own perks and downfalls but I just prefer my illadelph

Roors are plain tubes unless you get a roor tech, and then all they use are tree percs (if I'm not mistaken) Zobs are mass produced, and illy has always been a joke in my eyes. (lol @ getting a coil for more than a pillar) and medicalis aren't terrible, but they are along the same lines as zob

Lololol noobs. Don't waste your money on a coil. But then again. You know your high quality glass, right? Drop that grand!
What would you consider quality glass these days then? Also forgot to mention I've recently been using a toro piece of my friends, it's very nice but I am a bong guy
Mobius, Sovereignty, Itza, Toro, MOmo, Migrant, there's honestly too many to list. For $750 you can get a Circ to 13 from Itza or even a worked Colby Double Bubbler (both of those are in the $550 range). You could even pick up a Joel Halen for that price!
