Scalliwag Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Some of you have asked me to make these and I am not interested in doing them with the day job and travel and all. Skimo is trying to make himself some money though to make it up to Fort Worth for the party we are planning and I had an idea and Skimo accepted.His Dad and both GrandDads have shops with tools so I told him I was giving him my blessing to make these for anyone who wants and I would give him whatever support and advice he needs. So for those of you that really don't have the time or tools but want a finished product sent directly to you, Skimo will be more than happy to make them.He is a good kid and excited to get things going so I told him I would post so that no one thought he was trying to capitalize on my idea without my best wishes.Here is a pic of one in action[img]http://www.scalliwag.com/hookah/base/roto-40.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skimo Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Me and Scally were talking about some prices and I think it was around 30 to 35 plus shipping. Dont hold me to that though I still have to check around and see how much its going to cost to get all the shit to make them. I was thinking I could make a list of everybody who wants one so I could buy everything at once which might make the price go down but im not to sure. When I find out prices Ill let yall know, and most likley I could ship overseas its probably just going to be pricy haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skimo Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 ok so heres a rough list of everybody im going to order supplies for, I was thinking when I get atleast 10 people Ill place the order and get to workAbideEvansLightDjbombertoXpimpitoxAl-babJohnny_DNuschultzGuyWithTheGun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Ok im pricing these at 35 plus shipping, you can keep the woodgrain finish or I can paint it a select color of your choice for 5 bucks, me and scalli agreed it would probaly look nicer with the wood grain though. So now that you know the price let me know if I need to add or take you off the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyWithTheGun Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I can afford that...count me in, sir!is there any chance I could get an unfinished one? I'd like to put a nice walnut stain on it, maybe distress it a little. I'm doing much the same thing to my coffee table since I thought the hookah coal burns would look really cool if they were applied somewhat evenly, sanded down, and restained too a darker color. I'll have to take pictures if I ever get around to it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 yeah i could deff. do that, ok maybe lol ill have to figure out what your talkin about or get advice from scalli, either or haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Abide Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 35+shipping, im so down with that. I'll keep mine wood. where are you from anyway skimo? How far is your travel going to be to make it to Ft. Worth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalliwag Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 If you look at a map of Texas there is a part that looks like an armpit. That's where Skimo is at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumonshoe Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 lol, nice description Scalli. Glad to see that your engineering efforts are paying off in $. I would order one but i alread have some of the parts and am gonna see what i can come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalliwag Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 It is a fun project if you like to do projects and have the time. Running down the parts and all is not worth it for a lot of people. That is where Skimo comes in. He can get all the parts sourced and make a nice product at a fair price.It's a win-win situation. Saves the customers all the fuss I just mentioned, and helps a good kid make enough money to crawl out of the armpit and get some fresh air up here!
