ASUSEAN1 Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 best bet is to measure the diameter and call different online companies and ask if they have anything that fits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have the need to bug them about ordering new bases or w/e. So I'll just do it online I guess.QUOTE (Allia22 @ Sep 10 2007, 03:32 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Is that a threaded stem?www.hookahcompany.comwww.hookah-shisha.comwww.mnhookah.comwww.socialsmoke.comAs noobish as this might sound...what do you mean by "threaded" stem?

Mountain Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 A threaded stem screws onto the base, as oppose to a stem that has a grommet that you just push onto the base.The rings around a screw are called the "threads". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asusean made a list of some Mya bases that were still good quality, dunno where that thread ran off to, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZenSilk Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Those threads aren't like normal threads though. Youd have to find a base with the threads on the outside at the mouth. I've never seen one of those before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
