ThePaulson Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Hello People, I have a serious problem. I just spilled my hookah and burned the carpet. This is the third consecutive apartment I've lived in in which this happened. The problem is that my wife is now anti-hookah. I quit smoking cigs about a year ago, I can't find anywhere in this town (just moved here) to smoke my briar pipe, and now I can't smoke my hookah at home. I need a solution fast.... I need a spill-proof hookah. If no one knows where I can get one, I suppose I'll have to make one. I really don't have the time to figure out how, so if anyone has a solution, please let me know. I'm hurtin for a good smoke... Please help, Paulson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 there is a wire setup you can use that will catch the coals, or you could use a wind screen that latches on the the ash try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUXOR HOOKAHS Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 ThePaulson: The solution is very simple, all you need is to get one of those heads with the built in wind cover. The wind cover clamps down onto the head and will not alow the coals to drop to the floor. These are fairly cheap as well +/- $12.00 Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePaulson Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 This sounds great... where can I get one? Thanks, Paulson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGuy Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Want another solution? Get one of those plastic mats that go under rolling chairs. That will give you time to get the coal before it gets your carpet... Oh, thought about buying an area rug to smoke hookah on as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 almost any hookah vendor has them, there are mixed emotions on them though, i personally dont think theyd work to good but i guess its different for everybody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aronparsons Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 You have a couple of solutions. The first to look at is a hookah that is resistent to tipping over; so that'd either be one with a very wide base or a short one (i.e. Mya QT). Then look into the bowl with a windcover just in case it does tip over again. And a basic thing to do is have a cheap, large area rug you can put under the hookah if both of the above solutions don't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 thats why i smoke outside, plus its just nice to enjoy a smoke outside. aron had a good point, just buy a cheap rug you can put the hookah on so if it does tip over you only burn the cheap rug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get a smaller hookah with a wider base, it wouldn't be such a problem... Have you considered incorporating the hookah into something that wouldn't tip over? Like build a side table that incases the hookah... This is gonna be my next project, by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 or to be simple as hell just a box with no top and a hole cut for the hose, if you tip that over your just an idiot lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oggie505 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 wow 3 times, I figured you would not smoke indoors after the first time it happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LB] Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 how about learning from the first time you spilled it over? if you really want a permanent solution go to hookahcompany.com or hookahhookah.com and get a flat jezebelle vase. They are impossible to tip over and are pretty sexy looking. And get a windcover while you are at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Or a big piece of plywood. Tell your woman you're a man and to leave off the nagging. Well you could tell her that...it won't help, but you could tell her that. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puddy Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 more water = more weight in the base = more resistant to tipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauldavis Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 i saw on ebay one time a table that held the base underneath and the stem was just coming out of the top of the table...they also had an awesome card table with 2 hookahs built in if only i had the 800 to buy that one......

MilqueToast Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 [quote name='Puddy']more water = more weight in the base = more resistant to tipping.[/quote] I have problems with this statement... Anyways, common sense says, "Get something to put under your hookah". You can smoke outside too. Just be careful when you're indoors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMoodz Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 I use an area rug in my apartment and it works great. My first hookah was a junior sized one and that sucker tipped over frequently. If you live by an Ikea, they have a 6' by 4' area rug for $14.00. You will save your carpet if you use an area rug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
