Washable Km Hose?


Recommended Posts

I got this from hose from George at HC before he started stocking them again. It was a little hard to draw from. (there was some cardboard shit stuck in the top part) I decided to make it a washable biggrin.gif Went to Lowes and got some 5/8" 10ft clear tubing for the inside, had a little bit of trouble getting it in through the big part of the hose but i managed. Hand stiched the fabric back around and it was done.

Watcha guys think?

sweet modification scott, how does it draw?


Havent actually smoked anything yet but I plugged it in and took a few draws and so far it feels like it will be amazing.

Awesome. Looks great. Will the wood end hold up to washing, etc.? How is the draw compared to a razan/nammor?

Mine is unmodified, and the draw is about equal to my Nammor. I prefer mine to my Nammor in fact, but I didn't have any flow problems like scott. Its a sick hose.

Not completly sure, me and my dad think its either compressed cardboard or paper.


It concerns me whether that will hold up or not...I was looking at the one I have, and it looks like the leather wraps over the handle material. I would worried about water getting into the handle material and rotting/deteriorating the material.

When I wash it out I try and be extra careful to not get any water on the leather/cardboard handle. The end the plugs into my hookah has more tubing so I fill it up with water from that side. It does look like it could rot/deteriorate easily..
