Not sure if the bowl tip is screw on or not, but Mya sells these: http://www.myasaray.com/store/item.asp?ITE...EPARTMENT_ID=36

Talk to Tarik at MNH he may be able to custom make you a glass phunnel to fit that hookah.

I know for a fact they make adapters to convert it to fit a female bowl. I just can't find it... I know Tangiers made them. Might want to call Eric up at Odyssey Lounge in San Diego and ask him if he has any.

Really nice pipe Elijah. I like the stems with that kind of acrylic/glass insert but am always hesitant about the quality. Thanks for the share.

Nice Hookah, Off topic but what gauge are your ears?


Lol, well they are currently 7/8ths because they got infected so i had to take them out, but truely they are inch and 3/ths. I'm on my way to stretching back up.


Damn, I'm sorry to hear that man. The same thing happened to my right ear, I think I just staved one off in my left ear and I should be at 7/8ths in a couple weeks in the left, and in about 3 weeks to a month in the right.

Let us know how your pipe smokes amigo! and Post pics!

Z speaketh the truth! It is just a double tapered piece that uses two grommets. smile.gif You could use two tapered rubber stoppers and take a short piece of tubing to connect them together with the big ends against each other.
Refer to the small stopper in this pic and imagine another the same sized flipped upside down sitting on top

Well, go ahead and order you one but go ahead and make your backup smile.gif It's two stoppers put ass to ass with a tube holding them together. If you manage to eff that up I really gotta see it! biggrin.gif Just be sure that the stoppers alread have holes because putting a hole in a rubber stopper is a bitch to do right. Also make sure the hole is at least 1/2".

I wish I still had my lathe. sad.gif It's things like those adaptors that make me miss it.

Those type of Syrian pipes, the formed steel ones are junk. I have one, its a dear remembrance from a good friend, but junk. I had some Jordanian friends who bought one in Amman for $5 and it was 4 ft. tall. Hookah Company had some 3' tall ones that they were selling for $20 about three years ago and they finally threw them away, every time they sold one, it was returned with a complaint. If it works for you, good deal. Don't invest in them for business purposes, on the other hand. $40 is too much.

Naw, $40 is a good price for you and you like it and it works for you, so its good. All the hookahs, whether good or bad are hand-made for the most-part (In the Middle East). There are about 2 crummy ones for every good one made. If you can get them for around $5-$8 after paying for shipping, maybe you could make some money on it.

Yeah, It smokes great too! the only thing is, the grommet the goes inside the vase is a little small, but that's an easy replacement. I like it, so no loss here.. its kinda cool to have an actual hookah from Syria though, that was made in the family of somebody from there.

Grats on the new hookah, if anything it'll be a good conversational piece, then you can bust out the KM.


yeah, the KM is awesome! I totally went to the park and smoked it yesterday! two cops drove by and i'm suprised they didn't stop and come check to see what i was smoking (oh i was smoking tangiers Horchata Btw) yummm!
