ryno Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 My friend wanted to start smoking hookah after smoking with me for awhile, and he decided to build one. The hose port is part of the brass stem cut off with the grommet it came with. The brass stem was bought at Lowes in the toliet section (yea i know, but it works). That piece fit perfectly inside of my old Sahara stem that I cut to use for this. Only thing we need to do is get a better rubber stopper for the stem to support it better.

indian_villager Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Reminds me of the witch....Now if you replace the base with Capt. Morgan I would give you more props. But good job anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hookah hippie Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 how did you make a hole for the hose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryno Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 Thanks guys. It smokes really good, only problem is the large amount of area for smoke in the base, and theres no purge, so thats next to make for it.I drilled the hole for the hose with a glass cutting drill bit from Lowes. Its shaped like a spade, and takes awhile to drill through, but it worked. The hose attaches by sliding over a brass pipe that has a seal on it, so its airtight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestonm25 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 So, I'm building my first hookah right now, and I had the problem of what to use for the rubber stopper for a bit too. however, my friend had the genius idea to use those nozzles that bartenders use to get even pouring every time, and take the rubber stopper off of that. I'm not sure what the width of your vase neck is, and i'm not sure if it would work for a handle(as most of the nozzles are built for fifths) but it's something to look into.hope that helps!
