To make a flat surface with blowing glass, you need to press it up against something to create it.Oh. I could've sworn I've seen seams on the glass. Please excuse my mistake.

MechAnt Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Some glass you see will have seaming on them. On MZ and KM glass, I have yet to find one. The seamed glass seems to be that of chinese pipes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MZ has a similar patter because it is also handmade in the same factory as KM.MZ=KM EDIT: BTW, pipe looks excellent!you serious ??? my KM is 100000000000 times better than my MZ the stem on my MZ had a leak so water would get inside the stem so i had to have my uncle use jewelers epoxy to fix it and my KM has NO leaks what so ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechAnt Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) Everyone has their differing experiences. Want to hear what I truly have to say about KM? They fucking suck. They use galvanized steel that rusts out incredibly quickly. Two of my friends had 3 KM's rust out between them and they take meticulous care of their pipes, it just happened. The leak on the MZ? That's just bad luck. I've seen KM's with similar problems. No egyptian pipe is gonna be flawless. KM's work well.... when they last. MZ's are known to last for years with minimal upkeep. The older KM's, jeeze, you can't beat those but the nowaday galvanized steel crap they pump out is shit.In the end, it all boils down to personal preference and what you like better. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I like MZ, every fucking one else likes KM. Whoopdeefuckingdoo. You can make any thing smoke well with enough skill. Most GOOD pipes, there are little differences in how well they smoke, any difference is shown by the skill of whomever is preparing it.Therefore, KM=MZ=MYA=No Name Egyptians that still smoke well=Syrians. Difference is in the individual.EDIT: Where would that leak be that water could get in, unless you were soaking the stem?
