nidal105 Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 From experience, I know that hookahs like that are strictly ornamental and don't smoke very well. But there's no harm in giving it a try, it might work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hookahlife Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Hey Tecnorobo,Beautiful looking piece you got there. I've seen/smoked similar models, and I tend to agree with Nidal on this one. Because of its (the models I've smoked) unproportional diameters with regard to the water base and height, it doesn't seem to pull, smoke, or generate a buzz, as well as "normal" sized hookahs. If you experience a different result, let me know, and I'll go pick one up!!-EugeneHookah Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafeSearchOff Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 hey, H-L is back!i had a 3 hose that looked like this but smaller... was actually my first post on teh forum, asking for a how-to...never got it to work for me. the downstem was a PoS and the hoses were definately leaky and way too small. it would be great to see u get it to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another fact worth mentioning, is apparently the downstem breaks down into speperate pieces. I'm not sure if that would attribute to a better smoke or not, but atleast it shouldn't be as hard to clean.My friend and I are already talking about replacing the vase with a custom one of sorts that is more appropriate for the size of the downstem in attempts of getting a better smoke. We're not sure how that'll pan out, but I'm sure we'll figure something out. There's really only one true way to find out though... and that's smoke it, which I plan on doing.

Hopefully the bowl is removable (I would assume it is) and we'll be able to plop another one down. My friend is a fairly creative art major, so I'm sure he'll figure something out. Gah... My friends and I are too stubborn to not get this thing running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Devils Playground Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Stock will smoke like shyt. Looks very coo.rice was not bad for new. I assume that was new. Now plug the extra hose ports. The ones you use use a regular hose on them not the cheesy hoses and also use a regular bowl maybe unscrew it down to 4 feet to smoke it and my man you have a good smoking hookah. I have a 10 footer here all brass after 6 feet it just sucks. At 4 feet its a decent hookah.Congrats on a nice piece.Let us know what you think after thrying it my way.

We're definitely gonna try and get a different bowl on it (maybe I can get the tangiers phunnel bowl on there that I recently purchased)I know I'll be trying to use my Nammor on this bad boy as well. We'll probably try smoking it at 6 feet first- then four feet if it smokes real shoddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackiain Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Jesus H. Hookah, that is quite the pipe. You should start your own religion with that. I would join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
