BrotherBuford Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I'm surprised I've never done this before in all my years of smoking shisha, but a couple nights ago I snagged the hose and knocked my QT off the table and it came crashing to the floor - a hardwood floor with an ugly cheap rug over it. Surprisingly I didn't panic or anything, just leisurely picked up the coals with the tongs, soaked up the spilled water with a paper towel, and dusted up the ash. The rug took a couple hits from the hot coal, but the QT itself was unscathed. I pulled it apart and washed it, loaded up some new tobacco (the bowl contents got flushed with vase water when the pipe toppled), and it smokes the same as it ever has. No chipped glass or anything.The Tangiers bowl on top didn't take any damage either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had this one for nearly two years, maybe the newer ones are lower quality glass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geiseric Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Last week I did the same thing with my pumpkin hookah, but it was sitting on the windowsill. In my haste to catch the vase, I slapped the bowl right out the window onto the sidewalk 1 story below. Needless to say it was history. But I ordered a phunnel to replace it, so it ended well.
