    Ordered a Syn mini dome perc and alex k from CK, then picked up a very unexpected hundo so I squandered it on a Freeek slide (something I've always wanted). The tube is also a first for me, I've never had a double chamber, but I've ripped plenty and had tubes with a/cs but this a whole new game. I really dig this tube, it's super versatile and it's compact, simple design makes it pretty sturdy. Took two days in the mail USPS. The box was so small i thought there must've been a mistake, but when I unwrapped the toob, I really liked the way it looked at felt at 13". very comfortable to hit in any situation and retains great flavor when dabbing. hits like a truck when you hit it big, and smooth like silk when you want it to be. The Freeek is so big on it that it pulls the toob over on the carpet cuz the foot is about 3.5" wide. Found this out the hard way, I left it on floor and went downstairs for a fresh bottle of water for it and came back and it had fallen over. No visible damage but I would've been blown otherwise :eek: all in all a lovely tube for $135, and the alex k is a very worthy $50 add. glad i had a LW bowl to try with it too, that really makes it a great daily driver.

    More pics and milks upon request guys

  2. Congrats man. I know the feeling I'm working on getting a custom done and its exciting. It's still gonna be months for me but I'm stoked for you. I wanna see pics how long till it gets there
     
  3. the only piece i've ever had to wait on being shipped was my chillum, and it suuuuucks waiting for something as exciting as a new binger, but it shouldn't be too long. i ordered on friday (right before the long weekend) so it'll be tuesday by the time it gets shipped out, but should only take ~2 days via UPS ground. and when i say "fairly costly" i mean costly for my pockets, not compared to some of you blades out there. some of the collections i see on here look like the result of a squandered winning lotto ticket, but sick nonetheless:D what kinda custom you waiting on?

    Haha it does suck waiting. I ordered a weedstar messias of gc last year and it took almost 2 months to get here so a week isn't terrible but it probably will feel like a year haha. I've been talking to drew from dwb for a couple weeks I'm gonna put a deposit on it Thursday so I'm pretty early on in the process. I'm so excited though I've seen a lot of his work on here and on YouTube and its some of the best work I've seen. I wanna know who made your slide but the mystery is worth it. It doesn't matter what you pay for your glass it makes it so much more satisfying knowing you saved up for something you really wanted.
     
  5. lol, wanna know a good way to torture me? tell me glass is in transit and then it take two months to get there! sheeesh, that would suck. glad you got it though :D but yeah, i just need to get my mind off it so it'll come as somewhat of a surprise on thursday or friday. i used to not be keen on dwb, but once the smoke cleared with the huge debacle w/ his "employees" my views were refreshed on him. he seems like a pretty genuine guy, going out of pocket for all those people.. although he didn't have much of a choice. but all this practice he got has turned him into something a custom blower beast. good to hear he's back w/ custom orders now. but yeah, i know the money's not much of an aspect but people see "i spent a good amount of money" and they wanna jump to conclusions so i'm trying to keep the expectations low ;) but i know for a fact i got really good deals on everything i ordered so i'm extra happy in that regard. sucks the slide isn't quite mine yet, but an employee and i reached an agreement on the price and i'm just waiting for him to hit me back about how to go about purchasing it. but trust, it will be sooo worth everyone's patience when i post it up on GC. i'm giddy like a fucking school girl right now, shit.

    I bet I would be too. The little bit I've talked to him he seems really genuine and a really good guy just a little overworked. I don't know what happened in the past but that was then imo. I really can't wait to see your set up man definitely gonna be watching.
     
  7. yeah, if you go digging in the DWB thread, there's info about it. guess the gist of it is his employees took on way too many orders for drew (the only lampworker) and then collected payments from all those people and then basically left drew high and dry with a lot of P.O'd people. agreed though, its in the past and the dude is humbly working himself out of a very deep hole. but i got some good news about the order: talked to the employee, got my payment in and the whole kit and kaboodle should be shipped tues and here thursday-friday. i'm honestly hoping friday because i'm home all day, but my housemates agreed to sign for it thursday if it comes then. i must admit, i'm rather excited to see this thing in full effect and live in person.
     
  8. Yo where's the new glass?

    yessir, freeek it is.

    i appreciate the kind words, friend. thanks for stickin around :wave: i just got some Island Dawg and the first rip's for you.

    i'm not much of an ice guy, plus the dome on this tube takes about 3 drops of water to fill up (not literally, but you get me) and once the ice melts even a little it'll jack my water levels all up. but thanks man, i'm really diggin it too. the slide is HUGE didn't expect it to be so big. it was $295 shipped.

    haha, stock diffys are for the n00bs. how tall is your synnie? i found myself a new daily driver with this one :D

    Aw man thanks I appreciate it I'm sure it was a good one. Of course I stuck around I love when people get new glass I get to live vicariously (I can't spell) through them.

  19. Nice man nice....I'm loving the new clean glass and filla Freek slide that shit is Raw.

    If I could make a small suggestion if u use any 14.5mm slides the low profile Alex k's are badass..also keeps your piece more balanced if the freek slide is heavy....just an idea not really necessary but worth mentioning seeing your nice clean piece.

  20. very nice, that is the exact piece my friend picked up a few months back i wanted a syn dome perc since. those beakers hit nice, and you don't have to change the water every 4 bowls :rolleyes:

    i appreciate the kind words, brutha. the freeek is hollow so it's not that heavy, but the foot on the syn is very tiny but it balances fine on hard surfaces. i got the 18/18mm downstem for some flow, and i don't use any 14mm bowls. i agree the look is cleaner, but i had a 14mm piece once, and never again unless it's for oils.
