Pavo21 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 So i am just looking to see if there would be any interest in a new male phunnel bowl to come out? looking at getting some made and just wanting to see if any interest for them. I know lots of people have kasbah phunnels and i love mine also but just looking to see if anyone would want some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoozle Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 If you do a low profile one, I'd be interested. Like no taller than a large Egyptian bowl. I have a few female pipes that haven't been used yet so that would give me a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Me personally, no. I just use a 4 dollar copper piece I bought at lowes that works perfectly for tangiers bowls on turkish pipes ... not sure why everyone else doesn't do the same.

Hassouni Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Pavo, yes. Ditto Ashley's comment about low profile, but even Egyptian bowls are too tall. Something along the lines of a Turkish bowl or Lebanese/Syrian bowl (I could send you one) would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean John, but I still like the idea of not having to mess around with an adapter. I made one out of parts Pavo sent me but still use my Kasbah male phunnel bowl most of the time. I'm not sure if anyone remembers, but my Kasbah phunnel fell and broke, and resulted in a low-profile bowl: [url=http://s124.photobucket.com/user/INCUBUSRATM/media/Hookah/Photo1_zps3df76d28.jpg.html][/URL] I hate to say it, but I actually prefer it this way. The Tokel windcover that came with my hookah fits this way as well. Considering this is the only male phunnel bowl I own, I'd buy another one that is comparable to a Tangiers Pico, Mini, or Small in terms of tobacco usage and appropriate dimensions.

If it's taller than an Egyptian bowl, I probably wouldn't be all that interested. I say go as low as possible like no neck; straight from the bowl to the part that goes into the stem. Also 25g-30g of Tangiers would be the capacity I would want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Yep. Turkish and Lebanese bowls have no neck. Neither do Chris's or my broken Kasbah funnels - they just happened to break in the right place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just non sense Chris :-) People love their Syrian pipes and those have an adapter that have to screw on. What's the difference? It is a little metal piece that has tape on the bottom and a grommet on the top and you just plop it right on the pipe and done. They are solid as F. They don't budge or anything, perfect fit. Makes much more sense than buying more bowls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoozle Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 The difference in the Syrian adapters is that they do screw in and can't fall off. I wouldn't want an adapter. I had a female Egyptian bowl jump off of a male pipe the other day. Just got a bunch of juice on the gasket and slid up. I'm glad they work for you, but I'd be happy to reduce the number of parts and connections in my set up. Also, you can never have too many bowls. PAVO! While you're at it, do some large Egyptian style heads too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 In all honesty, my broken Kasbah male phunnel is the perfect phunnel for my Turk, or my Syrian if I use my female screw-on bowl adapter. It doesn't really get any better. Only problem is Mark made a limited run of them and I don't think will be making anymore, lol. John, even though it's stable enough to use, the adapter I made using a Tangiers phunnel isn't AS stable as just using a male phunnel bowl. What I'm talking about when I say my Syrian screw-on bowl adapter is this: [url=http://s124.photobucket.com/user/INCUBUSRATM/media/Hookah/IMG_1744.jpg.html][/URL] That's the adapter I have on a Syrian I no longer own. I can use either it or the standard male adapter to fit female bowls that came with my Nawras. So essentially, my Nawras can take both male and female bowls, I just have to swap out the screw-on adapters. On my Turk however, if I want to use a female bowl I have to use my fabbed adapter. I agree with Ashley- I'd rather not use an adapter to connect a female bowl to a male bowl port if I don't have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Apparently you guys as well as I will stay set in our ways, so we will just have to agree to disagree. The piece I got from the plumming section is literally perfect cost like $3.30 and fits in all of the turkish hookahs I have, you have to pull quite hard to get the thing off. When you add turkish tape to the bottom of it, it creates an amazing seal in the hookah. But no worries, spend more money on bowls :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Oh I'm all about saving some money too, but at the same time I'd rather just not have to deal with an adapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Plus male bowls are better :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wek-sos Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Definitely interested in another male bowl. Count me in. I have a Crown adapter but I just love male bowls because you tape them to fit the hookah. You would need a grommet to have an adapter to fit every female bowl you own, and then you run into the problem that male bowls solve - juices dripping onto the grommet. I hate tall bowls, and an adapter only adds to the height and adds to a potential catastrophe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Plus male bowls are better :P I agree when talking about the turkish bowls, but for a phunnel I'd rather just use my tangiers bowls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate tall bowls, and an adapter only adds to the height and adds to a potential catastrophe. The adapter only sits about half an inch above the port of the hookah. If you use tape for the adapter, and tape for the top piece of the adapter, it fits every tangiers bowl I have and I have a mini, 2 smalls, 2 smediums, 2 mediums, and a large, different production years for all of them.
