Evil_Spork Posted September 4, 2006 Author Share Posted September 4, 2006 [quote name='skimo']i think you should make a step by step while you build it and include pics, maybe video? lol cause if it works out nice i wanna attempt to make one just for the simple fact when i smoke i can say i built it ahaha[/quote] i will for sure. but making a copy of my home brew will be.... impossible for most. if theres interest in the parts and system i have i might think about making a few more to sell at cost. (plus a small mark up for time.)the hookah is going to be integrated into a box, and will be a hybrid aluminum/acrylic stem.the base design is going to be the truely unique part. [quote name='EvansLight']What downzero is talking about is the person who owns the hookah. Even the best hookah in the world will suck in the hands of someone who knows little or nothing of what there doing. And the crappiest hookah in the world can be made to smoke good by someone who is an expert. But beyond that, what makes a good hookah good, is good craftmanship, an easy pull, easy to clean, design that others like, and of course a good design that workds well. Beyond that its really down to whoevers packing the bowl and setting up the hookah.[/quote] awesome then... guess that means my hookah will be world class hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
