Stuie Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Cotsi just a couple questions...1. Isn't it fun being passive aggressive?QUOTE (cotsi95 @ May 1 2009, 09:54 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Ok well first the nammors are .5 id and the tips on them are WAY LESS i wanna say like .25 these have a MUCH wider tip and can be FULLY customizable. Im probably the toughest person to please on here when it comes to hoses, i have like 8 that i will only smoke on and thats because ive moded them all. These hoses are seriously awesome I guess if you dont want them then ok but I figured that people would like a hose that is washable and DOESNT FALL APART!!!!! but i guess i was wrong, oh and for the people that are local pm me and you can try one out.2. I don't know if anyone else thought of this but when you say "chemical treated" what chemicals in my inhaling in with these hoses?3. Is there any degradation or latent chemical reaction?

Stuie Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 QUOTE (Charley @ May 1 2009, 12:18 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I like them especially the one with the wooden tips and yellow tube. and for all you criticizing the mans work lets see you make a hose of the same quality for the same price. to me scallies hoses seem like a luxury item where as these seem more like an everyday item. a cheaper alternative to nammor or razan.JFTR... I am not critizing. A. They look okay to me, just not my cup of tea.B. If I try one I may change my opinion3. I got 30 something hoses hanging in my closet right now. Not sure I really need a new one. (yes the 3 was on purpose) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinamon Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 personally, i love the way they look. i think they are the best looking hoses ive seen so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inino Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 The plastic tip is the one thing throwing me off, Ive seen hoses with tips like that, they get leaks if you bang them a few times. or right at the seem where you connect the handle to the hose if it bends could leak. Im comparing it in my head to this disposable hose that looks just like it, but if I tried it I might be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherBuford Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 What is the actual hose made of? From the pics it looks like 1/2" ID silicone tubing (which is flexible and heat resistant up to around 230 degrees). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 they look like twizzlers ... making me hungry ... mm ... they look pretty cool i'd snag one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charley Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 the one with the plastic handle looks like it should glow in the dark. (can you make one that can glow in the dark? that would be kind of cool) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsfan6216 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I would be really interested in trying one. I've been meaning to pick up a couple more razon's but with the first one i got the grip on the handle started falling off after like a week. if i could get the wooden handles with the .5 id and flexible for around, or less than the price of a razon i'd be all over it. Looks good man just let us know when you get them up and going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The material that my friend uses reacts differently to certain chemicals, the material is dipped in a certain chemical for say 10 sec depending on the color desired, then it soaked in water to wash the chemical off, the tubing is food grade and is completely safe.3.No the material he uses is food safe like i said and wont break down.QUOTE (inino @ May 1 2009, 12:37 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>The plastic tip is the one thing throwing me off, Ive seen hoses with tips like that, they get leaks if you bang them a few times. or right at the seem where you connect the handle to the hose if it bends could leak.

Tomorrow ill post a vid of us smoking with one, taking it off the hookah running it (the tip) over with my jeep and using it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikemyusername Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 entrepenuers are the backbone of the earth, good luck to you, i'd be interested, but my razan has broken, been fixed, modded and blessed, its the only hose i need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xipander Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 i'd take one if you can make it sky blue. like color of the QT sky blue bases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotsi95 Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 Good to know stuie, Im using one that is a .5 id and 3/8 on the tips there is NO restriction on my km its ridiculous. Oh and i measured the tips on nammors they are .275. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NimbleCow Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Do the tips remove for cleaning? Any concerns about rusting from the metal piece after washing?How does the size of the end that goes into the hose adapter compare to a Caravan/Nammor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotsi95 Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 The tips arnt removable but there isnt an issue to clean them since the opening is much larger.The metal pieces wont rust since they are SS or Brass depending on what u want.its a MUCH larger opening they match the opening on the tip so there is no restriction.

Giant Ninja Robot Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 The plastic one's are iffy for me but I like the orange with the wood hose.Can you make different colored plastic? I think it's the color that I don't like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cynnamongirl Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 I may be new and all that, but I would definitely try one out. I dislike the idea of hoses that cannot be washed. My goal right now is to get a QT - we have two cats and a dog, so stability is a must at my house. I especially liked the wood mouthpiece with the fuzzy. =) I would definitely want one of these when you start selling them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NimbleCow Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 its a MUCH larger opening they match the opening on the tip so there is no restriction.[/quote]Kind of curious still here as the Caravan end that goes into a Mya hose adapter is massive and it would be optimal I think if it was a bit of a better fit. But the Caravan ends are wrapped in a big chunk of plastic.. Would love to see or hear about the fitment of this hose into a Mya hose adapter vs. some of the other bigger hoses. I think I've heard you talk about Caravans before so I'm sure you know what I'm talkin' about here.Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalliwag Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Cool stuff you got going Cots Especially for what is out there on the market man. Mine won't compete with yours in the price you posted. I'm focusing on a high end market that I know will b a setback as far as sales are concerned. It looks like you will really drive against the status que and are bringing something to the market that will be one helluva contendor. I have great respect for you my friend. p.s.- there will always be critics. Let the masses judge you and your product and you'll be just fine. Einstein and Tesla had their detractors and it only made the stronger and this hookah shit is not rocket science right? There's still a lot of room for improvements here and I'm glad you have the balls to do something more than kick back and ride along with the norm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
