Hassouni Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 At long last, I have an male to female bowl adapter! This came courtesy of Molson who lathed it out of some lovely looking olive wood. Works perfectly, the small funnel rocks on my Lebanese nargile! Here it is [img]http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs293.ash1/22079_572372903321_37003198_33800599_7978464_n.jpg[/img] Installed[img]http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs213.snc3/22079_572372868391_37003198_33800594_3108241_n.jpg[/img] Clouds: [img]http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs213.snc3/22079_572372883361_37003198_33800596_7971653_n.jpg[/img] [img]http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs213.snc3/22079_572372888351_37003198_33800597_7451904_n.jpg[/img] [img]http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs233.snc3/22079_572372898331_37003198_33800598_5441010_n.jpg[/img] PS do I need to treat the wood in any way? I recall reading something about soaking it in olive oil but I could be wrong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1v3th3ad Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I remember reading that it is good to treat it in olive oil every once in a while so that the wood doesnt dry out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinamon Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 i need an adapter badly but i dont really want to pay $20 that hookahcompany is charging. i want to be able to use a phunnel on my elmas nargile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 If I remember right you should soak it in olive oil about once a month to keep it's moisture in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molson Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 That looks really cool on that hookah. Glad it works and hope you enjoy it. I was concerned about the fit. ENJOY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff_T Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Very cool and great work Molson. Glad you can enjoy the awesomeness of the phunnel now Hassouni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 i'd say soak it in glycerine, honey, or molasses instead... olive oil can impart some flavor to your smoke....and it's not a flavor that will go well with a lot of smokes.... if it has to be oil, i'd say try vegetable oil, since it has a neutral flavor....

Molson Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 i'm not gonna lie I don't know about this whole soaking wood thing. I mean the wood is very dry when I turn it at about 7%. If it didn't crack or blowout during the turning why would it. Dosen't make sence to me at all. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
