Unused Syrian Base Fs Or Ft

               Hi everyone, I am selling this base. It came form 1 of my older pipes (don't even remember which 1) Sat in my closet for a very long time until i found it. This base is 10.5" tall. I think because its painted pretty well and because it is the only Teal (green blue color) base i ever seen thus far i think it's worth $25. However 25 shipped sounds like a better deal. So I'm selling her for 25$shipped. I am also willing to trade her for a Tangiers small phunnel or pico bowl, or 2 boxes of unopened shisha. Mizo, AF, Fumari, Tangiers I am open to almost anything. (want Mizo Blueberry and Mizo Lemon most of all) I am also open to trading for a nice hose. i much rather sell her though but if you guys don't want to spend money on this base then shoot me some trade offers as well!

For anyone else interested in this base i Forgot to mention the opening is 1.75 - 1.8" so any hookah could fit just make sure the down-stem isn't too long. as again this base is around 10.5" tall so not every hookah will fit it.

        BUMP!      Just made a last minute touchup at the top to make this base even more appealing. Notice any difference now?

Special trade secret... :-P  lol 

 

I do this on all my older bases except the bohos, when the top starts wearing off. Even my oldest glass base still looks the same at the top. I touched it up over 3 years ago.

So you know me would this fit my regal? My regal is out of town so I am unable to measure the down stem…

I think it should let me do research and check what Regal do you have again? Also why don't you want to keep the Boho on it? that boho is a beauty! lol 

 

Also because i didn't handle a regal in a while i am not 100% sure but the 1 at my friend's place has a long downstem. I'm gonna guesstimate but I'm afraid this will not fit a regal. 

 

If by some miracle it does then it will touch the bottom of the base.

Nevermind i made a mistake i had my friend check with a similar Syrian base and it fit. He used a Regal Melech. It does fit and you have under 2" from the bottom so you'd need a small amount of water.

                      Nope, and Nope. its a special brass sticky epoxy film that sticks on perfectly color never comes off, never wears out. only way to ruin it is to take a knife or any sharp object and cut it. I thought of repainting it but this process was less time consuming and proves to have better longevity as i had an old Egyptian base that i first tested this with and it has been going strong 5 years before i gave it to a friend (its still going strong w his pipe) I also did this for a lot of my friend's bases that had paint wearing off the top. That's pretty much all it is good for. Becuase the strip i had left is very thin it can only cover like 1/4" area. It looks like paint, same color as the original tape and matches the base perfectly, but it is not. It lasts longer than paint does as well from my experience. I bought it at a hardware store years ago and had a small amount left. It's actually more expensive than paint but the results are great, and no mess. You can't find a better lazy way out honestly. Thanks for playing guys! :-)
