Now I just need some sandpaper for that dang base grommet!First pic is an order me and a friend split from HS. Should last us awhile.Whole package from John, packed great.Brass heart. All clean welds and beautiful as can beCopper sectionHose port and purge. Again very clean weldsMore brass up topOnly two 'bad spots' on the base. Its all in the color and doesnt effect the base at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryno Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Narbish hose handles along with the 50g AF Pipe and Nakhla Apple. Those got added as freebies!The bowl has a minor chip in the coating when I unwrapped it, o well, its barely noticeableSmoking pics to come later. All in all, its a great hookah and glad I ordered it. Props to John for getting it all packaged up safely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 nice order man..the tri metals are still the best looking of all hookahs, in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no longer welcome Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 NO SAND PAPER!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope it's not too late, just run the black stem grommet, while on the stem, under water. It should pop right in. I hope you read this first, thanks!John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you read this first, thanks!JohnI've already tried and it just wont get in there more than half. I always have grommets that fit too tight on the base. It only needs to be taken down a bit on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
