azcoyote Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 This thread is a place to read and post about aftermaket and DYI items for hookah smokers. I am starting it in hopes that it will make it easier for everyone to gather/share information on this topic. This is basically for everything you buy or make for your hookah - bowls, hoses, screens, lights, decorations, etc. It does not include consumables - charcoal, shisha, . But if you found a item or made something that makes your smoking better and more enjoyable, let us all in on it here. Thanks. *Moderators note*I've been asked to keep this thread on topic by the OP, like the Review threads. So lets keep the comments useful please.

azcoyote Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 [url="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140028119953&sspagename=ADME:L:RTQ:US:1"]http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ADME:L:RTQ:US:1[/url]I purchased this hinged windscreen on ebay and it works great. It really is attractive and strurdy. Nice fit and finish. Once the pipe is up to temp I find even a tiny coal will keep things running smooth. It's so effecient that you can easily scorch your shisha with the amount of coals you'd normally use without a cover. The package includes a standard egyptian ceramic bowl, metal screen and flip up cover. It can be latched but it isn't necessary. Fine tuning of the heat is possible by lifting the cover partially. Moving coals is easy enough. BTW any cover will get hot so don't touch with bare hands once it's hot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakemonster Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Upgraded hose. Most hookahs dont come with MYA wide hoses. I think they are real winners.White chinese grommets are great.... thicker and resolve issues with some of the skinnier egyptian style bowl seats.
