HELP ME DECIDE

Getting a new oil rig in the next couple days and I have narrowed it down to 2 choices.

http://apixdesign.com/products-page/oil-rigs/10-mini-gridded-inline-concentrate-rig/

[Img]http://apixdesign.com/wp-content/themes/mio/sp-framework/timthumb/timthumb.php?src=http://apixdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/photo-13.jpg&h=500&w=500&zc=1&q=100&a=c[/img]

This thing is dope and I have heard nothing but awesome things about ApixDesigns, plus it comes with a quartz nail and dome already.

But then I saw this guy for the same price...

honeycomb to 8 arm tree perc but I would also need to drop another $40 on an oil dome setup.

Decisions decisions..

Yeah but I am kinds looking for a mini rig so it's right up my alley. He's got 3 or 4 others on his site that are taller straight tubes but more $$. Also a sick ass stemline double disc that I would scoop butI don't have $200 to blow.

Ye was just looking at those, the doubles look pretty nice. I too have been looking for a smaller rig but I need to sell some of my glass first. I really like the new micro rigs that all the higher end glass companies are making now, I just cant justify spending $300 on one

Yeah no shit I would love a Toro Macro or something dope like that but my upper limit on glass would be like $200 and if I spent that much it would probably be a nice bong. I found a guy on Facebook who will make custom mini rigs and will make pretty much whatever you want. People on GrassCity were skeptical of him because he ks fairly new to blowing but idk he turns out some seriously dope rigs. If you are into worked or heady glass he makes some sick designs but will also make you a nice functional rig for under $150.

Dude. trust me bigger bongs for dabbing are worse. I cant tell but it looks like you got the gridded nline and that thing will show you what smaller rigs can do. More flavor and better for concentrates hands down.

Every time I see glass it further reinforces my dream of someday getting a Sovereignty Peyote Pillar.

Yeah that is what I have heard actually. I'm stoked to hit it and see the difference! I have honestly only dabbed out of big bongs. The one in the pic, a big zong, and a double inline 5 arm tree. All super nice bongs but I guess none of us are super experienced with oil so we figured the bigger gnarlier the bong the better hahah.

When buying a bong there's an easy rule to go by. You should spend about 3 months salary. That's the appropriate price range for the glass lady of your desires.

Shit idk I just found it on Youtube. I like that style though it's taller and more like a regular bong than a bubbler, but I do prefer stemless bongs.

It would be physically impossible to take a hit that big for someone who has never smoked. But if you managed it yeah you'd probably think you went retarded..

Yeah but I'm not really into worked glass as much, if I am going to spend a lot of money I want something that is expensive for functionality, although I have been learning a lot about glass and lurking some glass forums lately and it's some damn cool art. Sadly I can't smoke anymore though :(

Your piece will get real dirty with all those extra percs. I have the same tube, myns a Sovereignty and its just the natty perc to a horitzontal inline . Big fan of straight totem style tubes

I used to want one so bad but the same thing has happened to me. Heady, small, less filtered pieces are what I look for now.

Though it's been said a million times in here. Less diffusion/smaller piece is always better for concentrates.

I was thinking when that guy was patting his head and rubbing his stomach "I never want to smoke with these dweebs."

Then when the guy was like "where'd did the smoke go?"

and the old dude was like "What smoke?' and then laughed that shit was hilarious.

Seriously this

A honeycomb looks fucking sick but paired with an 8 arm perc is just too much. Unless you keep your shit crystal clean all the time then that thing will clog real quick and be such a bitch to clean.
