Delsol_Si Custom Hose!


Recommended Posts

Tyler (delSol_si) made me one of his custom hoses, and I love it. I just wanna say that Tyler is the man and this thing is awesome! Huge props to him. I got the handle with the quick connects and this afternoon on Tinychat he showed me how to rip apart my Nammor, take its handle off, and replace it with the custom one, reusing the mouthtip and the sweatband thingies. By the time we were finished my coals were kaput, so I didn't get a chance to try it out. One last thing I have to do is get some electrical tape and tape up the grommet for where the mouthtip goes in to make it tighter so the tip will stay in. Right now it's loose and falls right out, but I managed to get it to stay to be pretty for the camera. Again, huge props to Tyler on this one. If he wanted, he could easily make these and sell them. I have a feeling this is going to be my favorite hose of all time, and I haven't even smoked it yet!

Thanks Tyler for the awesome hose!

Thanks! I love it... Can't wait to smoke it tomorrow! I was smoking but then Tyler got on Tinychat so I had to stop while he showed me how to connect the handle to the Nammor hose. By the time we finished my coals were out. :(

But tomorrow smoke shall run through it!

Seriously Tyler, patent that.
You could sell the design to Nazar or Hookah-Shisa and contribute even more to the hookah community more than you ALREADY do.


But if not i demand a how to!!!!!

glad you are enjoying it...im still kinda frustrated the nammor turned out to be a bit different than the razan. hopefully we can get the differences worked out

I got electrical tape man and taped the grommet for the tip, stuck it in, and it's perfect! This thing smokes like a champ! I was getting Joe clouds earlier! Haha...

THANK YOU, I LOVE YOU, AND YOU ARE FUCKIN' AWESOME!

....no homo.

well, i don't really know how to go about getting a patent...i might look into it, but i kinda figure if nazar or H-S were interested in this, they would have said/done something about it by now. thanks for the suggestion though. The other drawback is the price. The materials alone to do this are ≈$15, give or take a few. Then it cost 10 bucks to ship because its pretty heavy, weighed in at the fedex at ≈1lb. And last time i checked, a Razan or Nammor cost like $22, so your looking at probably $37+shipping for one of these...and as cool as they are, i doubt many people would pay that much for one. Basically, I think this is a really cool alternative to throwing away a busted hose, but not something I would go out and buy a brand new hose for...though that razan sultan and razan sultan platinum edition hoses are looking pretty badass to me, lol...just don't have the extra cash right now. then again, being in the retail business, Nazar or H-S might be able to get a better deal on these pieces than i can at Lowes.

Man, if only i could find the tubing they use on their hoses, id be in good shape and could make these a lot cheaper.

But ya, I'll try to either start making more of these or do a how-to, probably the latter. Like I said, its kinda expensive to do and shipping sucks. If a person didn't want the quick connect, that cuts out a lot of the cost though, the quickconnect piece alone is $6, and the brass adaptor i think is another few.

chris, its a huge relief knowing you are happy with it...there was a lot of concern in my mind about sending it to you and having you do the final steps, especially since your hose wasn't even broke, but im glad it turned out ok for you :)
