I saw this piece by glasstafarian and I thought I had to have it lol =) I think everything about it is sick as hell. I'm assuming it's going to be 200-300ish but I'd pay 400 easy. Specs that I can see. Inline to crazy curves outside the glass to shower head. What do you guys think, on a 1/10 how heady is this? I really want a decent heady piece but I hate buying name brand shit. I'm going with a red black and white color scheme with streaks of clear running threw.
You know what sucks thuogh... is if one little piece has a crack in it.... I just bought a bong for seventy and while cleaning it out, SOMEHOW the salts and shit got stuck inside the bowl..... And it whistles... lol
It looks like a very nice bong with unique styling. I'd be happy to own it myself. The only thing I'd be concerned with is that you will need to run your water level kinda shallow in the inline or you'll have some drag issues with that air path to the showerhead.
I was thinking the same thing. I can't really see if the section right before the inline is filled with water as sort of an ash catcher? Like the downstem is reallly long and it goes into the bottom their? If it is I wouldn't fill it with water.
no offense but this is a not worth 3-400.00 it looks like a drag monster pretty sure its meant to be filled or he wouldn't have dropped the can so low. its really a goofy design tbh. jmho no offense.
I'm going for goofy/crazy/unique. It doesn't matter if it's a drag monster. I have a diaphragm for a reason =P I'm sick of people like zomg look at mah roor.
Looks pretty nice, going to be a super bitch to clean, but other than that its pretty epic hahaha. I agree its going to be a heavy dragger, but what ever like toolman said, we have diaphragms for a reason hahahahahaha
i hear you there but I still feel you can do better for the money..never been impressed with glasstafarians work or customer service.
True true then I'll keep it on my top 5 list. Would you recommend a blower that I can look at their work? Name brands mean nothing to me by the way
It looks pretty cool, I haven't heard much about glasstafarian but I recently e-mailed him about doing a titanium skillet. If drag isn't a problem for you, I'd say go for it it looks pretty cool, especially the worked inline.
I would recommend looking at glasspipes.org no name brands there, all custom and most of the artists on there blow glasstafarians work away. only place I buy glass besides boromarket edit.off topic I have loved TOOLs music since early 90's and have seen them more times than I can count...great live shows.
I was checking out glasstsfarian for a but too, actually the same tube. But after he came on here, and admitted his work was rushed and flawed but he sent it out anyway to a member of this community; I won't be buying from him any time soon.
I'm not trying to hurt his reputation. But to be honest, if you read what he said on here he did that job just fine himself.
yeah i remember that thread too, guy was kind of a dick, but he was also defending himself again like 500 people. im sure hes a fine low level glassblower. but i wouldnt buy something that expensive from him, id stick to small pieces/diffusers/etc. that bong looks thin and strange and not the good kind haha. if you like strange get a pakoh, nate dizzle, or jop!
Yeah the thing is the better known the more money =( I'm not rich at all but I'd be willing to save for a decent piece. Just because the artist is well known and charges a lot doesn't mean someone who's less known and charges less doesn't make better quality. I love your link too on anarchism =) I always correct people when they talk about it. Were both from NJ too
