Enima For Your Lungs Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 PM me, I have some extra parts lying around from broken stock. I'm not sure if they'll be compatible or not though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubi-WAC Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I also have a four hose egyptian. Which I also thought about making an autoseal for it. The most logical thing i could think of would be to cut the metal pieces that fit into the stem in half, insert a metal bearing in there, and the seal the metal piece back on.I also had an autoseal hookah, and I hated cleaning it. pain in the ass.I ordered rubber flip caps from social smoke and they work just as good in my opinion.

mushrat Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I'v started drilling out my autoseals and using corks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauldavis Posted July 4, 2006 Author Share Posted July 4, 2006 so are you saying i would be better off without one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Enima has said he likes his, several other people say they like theirs, I think more people have complained about the restriction in flow, but I guess it comes down to a personal choice. You might want to try "auto" or "auto seal" all words in the search engine and read what folks have said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enima For Your Lungs Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I like mine because I can't stand having to plug the unused hoses. When I smoke with a group of people someone always forgets. I'm even willing to sacrifice a little bit of airflow for the autoseal, although I haven't really noticed this to be a problem. As always, how well the system is engineered probably depends on the manufacturer (I'm not saying that people that experience air-flow restrictions buy crappy hookahs or anything, just that each manufacturer has its own strong points).
