theophylaktos Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 So I discovered today that the windcover my friend left me is about 2 and a half inches short of being able to stand its self up. It basically rests on top of the bowl which Im going to guess is a bad thing. I really don't want to buy a new one so Im trying to figure out what i should do, Id like to make it larger but not sure how I should go about doing this. I was thinking of just scrapping a can and then epoxying it to the base of the windcover (unfortunatly i dont have access to a spot welder) to make up for its short stature, but id like to hear some suggestions.

Voski Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Grab a pair of tongs and place it so it straddles the pipe right before the bowl. Then you can place the wind cover over the bowl and it will stand on the tongs. This has been brought up multiple times so if that didn't make sense just search for it and you should find a picture.

Click Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 What he said. Or... take a starbuzz or tonic tin and put a hole in it to lift the windcover the extra couple inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename067 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Some people lay chop sticks across the ash tray and lat the wind cover directly on top of them. Try that if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant Ninja Robot Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 my windcover is a bit wider than the above pictured one so I cleaned up a small coffee can, cut out the bottom, flipped it upside down and it fits perfectly just inside the lip.

BaronIV Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 lol i took a can of del monte pineapple and just cut the top/bottom out of it, the windcover is perfect size to be pushed into the rim of the can and it sits perfect for a tangiers phunnel now.
