chinodos Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Hey I have a problem, I have Nammor washable hoses and can't seem to find any hose end caps that work. I have tried using some bought rubber ones, but they didn't fit and they broke way too easy. Currently I only have a 3-hose egyptian nile hookah (working my way up to a mya gyro!! Can't wait!! ) so I don't have the auto seal system on my hookah. It's kinda embarassing having everybody hold down their hose with their thumbs while we smoke. Any ideas on how to solve this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungiman Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Rubber stoppers, maybe with holes for a string that you hot glue up.Heres the link.http://www.sciencestuff.com/ctgy/L-tStoppersgogogogogo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherwood Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Covering the hose tip with your thumb is an ancient tradition Realistically, even a little rubber cap you'd have to take off every time you wanted to smoke, until someone dropped one, then they'd use their thumb. You'd go through 15 in a month, and be sick of buying them.If you can do without a purge, get an autoseal system on a multihose Mya Saray hookah. If you can't, build something awesome.
