Hookie The Hookah Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 My medium phunnel fell off the top today in transport and three large chunks broke off the rim of the bowl making it unusable. The question I have is can I super glue them back on and have a safe device to smoke out of or should I suck it up and buy another one? Perhaps someone has some tips for repairing broken bowls....p.s. John if you see this thanks for the free AF Mango and the kind words about my balls RE: zaghloul....

mattarios2 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I would say don't try to glue it, but i think there are some non toxic glues you can use.I am sorry I am not much of help but you can search the forum, i know this topic has been discussed a bunch of times.I look at it as would you rather be healthy and poor or rich and unhealthy?Spend the few bucks, get a new one I say.

NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 this isnt a hobby you want to be cheap with..i mean its going in your mouth..you dont want to mess with glues..just drop the $11-$13 on a new bowl and be more careful next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookie The Hookah Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Agreed, I did a large foiling so to speak and it seems like it'll old up until I'm ready to make another order (can't justify ten dollars of shipping for a single item...)

mattarios2 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 call up hookahjohn ... he will ship usps for "special occasions" tell him to throw it in a small box and it will only be 4.95 2-3 day shipping anywhere in the usa with priority mail.

Sonthert Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Wait it out. I think super glue is fairly safe...but why take a chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikemyusername Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 stick all the pieces on it and use a shit ton of foil to hold it together, foil the inside to keep juices from running out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquidglass Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I used glue on a small phunnel of mine. As long as it's a heat resistant glue and preferably non toxic keep it on the outside of the bowl and make sure the inside looks brand new (as in no glue, no cracks, etc) and you're safe in my book.

mattarios2 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 yah but john ... if you use a small box, not the flat rate small, just a small box, as long as it is under 1 lb. it goes anywhere in the usa 2-3 day $4.95. I've told you this like 5 times now lol.Any box, under 1 lb = $4.95 usps priority 2-3 day anywhere in the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookah hippie Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 hmm what does a phunnel weigh anyways seems like it wrapped in bubble wrap would weigh more than 1 pound just a guess though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjako Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 That depends if its worth it to hookahjohn as a vendor with different orders, a special packaging, etc...just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattarios2 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 IV, it went up to 4.95 :-( , unless you do click n ship online they cut you a deal and it is 4.80And John, usps has boxes that are 7x7x6 i believe, i weighed them, they weigh roughly 3-4 ounces they aren't flat rate boxes ...have a look : https://shop.usps.com/webapp/wcs/stores/ser...;WT.ac=10000244and all the boxes they ship are free and free s+h.

*sigh* Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Ya, it's $4.95.But Priority Mail < 1Lbs is $4.95 so you don't just need a flat rate or even really a small box. Just don't go too crazy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
