I Solved My Alien Mini Phunnel Hard To Pull Problem. How Did You Do It?

[GMofOLC]

I recently got HJ's Alien mini phunnel bowl and I love it. Only problem is that sometimes it's hard to pull from because the foil gets pressed down on the main hole in the middle. I tried poking a hole in the middle, but that made it whistle. I solved it by taking a small nail and sticking it through one of the hole's in the foil close to the middle and resting the tip on the inner lip. This holds the foil up so air can get into the main shaft.
I know I explained that horribly.

How did you guys get around this problem?

Never had that problem. Pack a bit more shisha and Big holes all over the Place!!!!!!!!!!!!

sand down the center hole. i got a phunnel that had the center above the rim, the only way to get great air flow is to sand it down

never had that problem, I use heavy duty foil so I dont have to worry about reshaping foil on the bowl...F cheapo thin foil

I've had this problem when I first got my small Phunnel, but have never had this problem with my Alien. With my small I just stretch the foil over the bowl as tight as I can and it solves that problem.

My allien phunnel works perfect. The only time I noticed this problem is some smoking Nakhla, I think its too dry. Wetter shishas work perfect.
