crisbeatz Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 So I was a little ways into my session when I noticed that water was dripping from my bowl. I was confused as all hell because everything was dry when I set up. My guess was that I either blew too hard when I cleard it or my bearing got stuck for some reason. Would there be any other reason for this? Please keep in mind that I'm stilla noob and any new info would help. Thanx in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racemyghost Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 (edited) its one of two things, maybe even bothYou either blew to hard and your ball bearing was stuck like you said or it could just be the shisha juice dripping down. Most likely you blew to hard.What you should do is before you want to purge the vase, always do a light blow to make sure the ball isint stuck and then go ahead and blow it all out.

The Devils Playground Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Yea dude thats all it was. To much lung power when purging. Take it slow and easy and this should not happen. If it does again clean your Purge ball. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1v3th3ad Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Damn, I would have thought it was condensation from ice water in the base. That sounds reasonable though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet. I must say that I really appreciate all of the information sharing. This all really helps alot. The guy who first intoduced me to hookah thinks he is a bad-ass because he is the only guy within the group who knows what he is doing. But within a day of hanging out here, I started teaching him things to try and you should see his face now when I tell him little things like Mushrat has mentioned. Thanx again to all! First flavor mixing experiment will be in progress soon. I let y'all know the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
