Post pictures ask questions, anything related to glass goes.

Ill start her off. I am looking into buying this new tobacco pipe at this higher end glass shop. All pieces are hand blown. I was wondering what the ball park price range would be for one of these hand blown pieces?

I've been smoking reefer for years and there are words in this thread that I've never even heard of to describe "glass". Jesus christ, this is madness.

I was going to make a thread asking but might as well just ask here for anyone who has experience: What is a good, reputable online website to buy a little glass pipe from?

Try looking around there. They always seem to have a decent selection and moderate pricing. One huge drawback is that they ship from Holland. Head shops usually have a pretty massive selection of hand pipes that are probably pretty locally blown. I would definitely suggest looking in a shop over purchasing online for something like a hand pipe.

If you aren't looking for something of really high quality Grasscity or gogopipes.com would be your best bet. Grasscity has excellent customer service and you can usually find free shipping and or 10 or 20% off discount codes with a little looking online. Gogopipes and everyonedoesit are both reputable online glass dealers as well.

if you're spending a good amount of money, and its not quality glass. Don't buy it, quality glass will be more worth the extra bucks, and you're shitty blown glass will break way easier.

Well no shit if you want quality you have to dish out some extra $$ but just looking for a small spoon I am assuming then it really doesn't matter if it's 5mm Schott-Duran or some China glass. the only reason to really get quality thick glass if you are clumsy and or if it's a nice bong or bub.

He does have quite a bit of reclaim. Imho, letting it build up for a while is easier and a tad more rewarding than cleaning them 24/7. However, my flower pieces do get cleaned on the regular.

Did your dg fritter start falling apart? I was going to get one for my cloud but that stoped me. You seem pretty big into oil I'm thinking about getting a bates and worm diffusion pump with a no dome nail but I don't live in Cali so I really don't want to make my own oil . Do you make your own oils or is it much of a pain?

Btw does any one find smoking with your expensive glass with your friend gets you extremely parniod. Ever since I've gotten into expensive glass I just can seem to enjoy smoking even with papers I get parniod now . I guess that's the price I pay hunting that elusive perfect hit

Been there, chose not to bring one out one night, a girl got us busted and thankfully the only piece that was present to be confiscated was a $20 spoon.

PROTIP: you can use a ski strap as a nice lighter holder on any bubble-base bong.

I have never bought it. A bottle of iso is ~3 dollars and salt is even cheaper. i'll get a good 15 to 20 washing from a bottle. My glass is always looking brand new after cleaning, with no left over res/taste/smell. Based on that, I can only assume that it works just as well.

What are the percolators and diffusers for?? Do they filter out some of the bad stuff in the smoke?

Sorry for stupid question, but I don't really know what they're for, because I don't smoke.

They are used for more filtration and cool the smoke more so you are able to get a less harsh hit.

more diffusion = more/smaller bubbles of smoke which means it gets cooled by the water better for a smoother hit
