JDHarding Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I got one of the new Black/Blue/Green small Tang phunnels, and noticed that the center hole's rim is too high. The foil gets sucked down onto it no matter how tightly I wrap it. Anyone else getting this problem too? My first generation black/blue small phunnel didn't have this problem.

I don't like getting the tobacco too close to the foil. It lasts longer that way. Except maybe Tang.. it's so wet that it doesn't matter. But Nak doesn't like to get surface burned.I could use the glass scalli mod I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDHarding Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 I wonder if poking holes just on the inside of the rim will help.. not in the center.. center hole = bad mojo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right on the inside of the rim, or right next to the rim.. one or two holes.. that's all it needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSwingle Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 i have this problem with mine. the paper clip idea seems to be the best idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joytron Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 sand it down. the paperclip is a pain and causes draw issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 im going to take a guess and says its to keep the foil from getting sucked in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what's with the center hole?You know, I never realized this until you said something, but i wonder if that phunnel is a chinese or havana rather than a Tangiers...I say that because the inner phunnel ridge is a bit flat, where most tangiers are a well defined, non-flat ridge.

Click Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Oh I dunno. It's not my phunnel. I found it on a google image search just to show how to use a paper clip if you don't want to or can't cut the phunnel down. I would never buy another non-tangiers phunnel after that p.o.s. chinese one i bought last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 They vary in height, both the phunnel and the actual bowl. Grips are shorter than towers, but the towers seem to have been shrinking lately, getting closer to grips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
destructo Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 i dont know what grips and towers are but i seem to remember that the circumference being about 1"+ bigger on my old one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
