Anxiety Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 alright so the spot were u put the hose has a slight welding problem were it is kinda sharp and messes up my hose, i tried to file it down a bit but im scared that if i mess up the seems it will fall apart.

Rani Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 This is going to sound crazy but take it to a nail shop. They use tiny round file bits (as in drill bits) in Dremel tools to do acrylic nails. They can hit it right on the spot without damaging the other welds and literally file it down keeping it entirely in the round of the port itself. Yes, guys, every time we girls with long red nails goes into a nail shop we williingly hold out our hands for them to be drilled around the cuticle.'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anxiety Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 unfortuantly pics are really hard because it's in the hose piece and on a slant, i got some 40 sand paper and a metal nail file and rubbed it down pretty good, still a little sharp but i understand that every hookah made is gonna have some slight defects. I filed it down t's still a little sharp but i dont want the welding to split but the small piece of electric tape actually really helped but yea i might just file it down a bit more it's not as sharp as it was but still concerns me a bit.
