I got a pm asking how much shisha I use in one of these opposed to a mini phunnel. since I don't have a mini I can't answer that.
do you have a mini Stuie? if so maybe you can answer that question


Doing it phunnel style with a glass mod from my MHN Mini phunnel I would say depending on how you pack half or a little over of the mini.

It turns out I had not started one from the fourth piece after all. I went ahead and did all four from the first stick. I did not cut exactly at the lines but those are good enough reference for which section because which bowl.







I will post the pics by number in a sec

oh, and I really think a lot of people are going to be surprised on stick 3. I cut all 5 sticks down but I only turned these 4 so far. But Looking at 3 in 3D is an advantage. It will be the last one turned but we'll see once it happens.

Since I was the first and one of the only ones to believe in stick 3, if it turns out like I hope it will with some bitchin ass flame to it I'm totally shotgunnin one of those bitches. I'm a total sucker for a good piece of flamed or spalted wood smile.gif

I wanted to see how the video quality would do on Youtube. It's the closest way I know of to make it in 360. The vid is still processing but here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7OHT5iNrow
BTW I wanted to add some music so I took a recording I made of a buddy a couple of years back doing an acoustic Stevie Ray

I'd love to see down into the bowl to see the phunnel parts. Is it in any of the videos?


No videos but this thread has pictures and covers all that http://www.hookahforum.com/?showtopic=30071

Wow those turned out beautiful, and I think hands down stick #3 came out the best with the flame in it, the bowl farthest to the right from that stick is very very tempting.... Decisions, decisions.....

Wow, I really want one of those. I have to wait to see what my summer employment looks like before I buy more stuff. I really hope you still have some available and will do me the honor of letting me buy one. I'd really like to order one of your hoses too when funds are better! I was also thinking about maybe seeing if stuie would sell me the one you sent him. I remember you saying you are changing the style and would trade stuie the old for the new if he wants, but I personally really like the look of the one you sent him.

Oh, and what is the difference in process difference in making them between the highlighted dark brown grooves that go around and the grooves that just match the bowl (no highlight). I personally like the highlighted grooves more.

Thanks. I'm still waiting to see if anyone can guess which bowls came from which stick.

Actually I'm just sending Stuie a tip and a connector end. It's not a whole handle. The way I make the dark lines is with a guitar string. With the lathe spinning fast I pull the string down in the groove and the friction burns the line. I saw a video where someone used a wire and I figured old guitar strings would work plus I could use various gauges.
Save up some change because we'll have plenty of stuff made.

Scall- this is what I was talking about. But on second look, I like your handles with the curve on the end and the little aqua piece on it better than what he got. They all look fantastic though.


I gotta get the lead out of my ass and mock up some handles. I have enough for probably 5 hoses.
