Fujin Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Hey y'allI stumbled across this site while at work and found that there's so many people here who have as much passion (if not more) as me for hookah, and the creativity to make hookah even more of an art form....Meh, enough banter....anywayI came across a bottle of crystal head vodka---Dan Akroyd's vodka--at my friends liquor store and said to myself "I must turn it into a hookah!!!" Well, i did, and after doing some research, spending some time at the home depot, and some extra money to make it look nice, tada! I made this several months ago, but never really thought about posting it online, so....you may have come across someone else who converted this glass skull wonder into a masterpiece of a hookah. More power to them i say! Just here to show you my treasure! FIY, i probably could have made this better if i had actual tools, but hey, it's my first go at making one. Plus, all the parts from home depot were from the plumbing and electrical departments. Enjoy!image 1 image 2 image 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akkbar Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 I was at the liquor store at the base up here in Edmonton, and I saw that bottle... the first thing i thought was "Hookah vase!".Is the vodka any good?For $50, the vodka had better be decent, but I'd probably be paying for the bottle more than anything else.

TizaNabi Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 (edited) The hookah you made is ONLY stupendously great!!! Admiration for that. Where did you find the bottle? Is "Dan Akroid" the company name? Nice photos also. Edited July 16, 2009 by TizaNabi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fujin Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Wow. Thanks for all the replies! I really appreciate it! Oh, and i accidentally deleted those pics, so i dunno if they still work, so here's another link:http://fujin.carbonmade.com/projects/2142387Thanks again!

Fujin Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Also--the vodka wasn't all that great--i'd say about smirnoff quality...maybe a little higher. It's definitely drinkable with a mixer. All in all, i think it's worth it! i use this bad boy all the time. even found some mesh wire and put it at the bottom of the stem as a diffuser! Good times. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenveg Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 (edited) (First post on the hoohahforums!)That's one mighty fine looking hookah! I really like the metallic design, it goes well with the skull.Couldn't you tell us (me) more about how you made the stem and hose? How did you make them fit together smartly?Tell us more details about your rather-queer-looking-geniously-put-together-contraption?

He played Elwood Blues in the movie The Blues Brothers. He was on Saturday Night Live in the late 70's and throughout the 80's. Since the early 90's his popularity has died down quite a bit.From Wikipedia:QUOTE Crystal Head Vodka is a vodka manufactured by Diamond Estates Wines & Spirits Ltd in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It is claimed to be quadruple-distilled and triple-filtered through Herkimer diamond crystals. It is sold in a clear glass bottle in the shape of a human skull, and is promoted by actor Dan Aykroyd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agstevens Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 That looks sick, definitely a unique hookah. That would look neat with lights in the skull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
