txbrit31 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Does anyone know where King Mo bought his diffuser? I'm in the UK until March- and I'd really like to grab a few whilst i"m here.. I've tried PMing him but his box is full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donetodeath Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 hey pav, give more detail about your shampoo bottle one, or why it didn't work. Mine works fine, im just having a hard time getting the shampoo smell/taste out of it. I also wonder about the hole in the bottom, or if there's a certain amount of holes needed. But my stem is extended with a piece of pvc, thats what the shampoo bottle fits on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monil Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Could you just not attach a piece of foil with holes in it to the bottom of the stem and use rubber band or something to make sure the rest of its airtight? I'll try different things on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pavlakos_politakos Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 well the top fits over the downtube and its not exactly a tight fit.it stays on but its not very snug.plus teh holes are too big(i think)does anyone know what a good size hole is?

ZAP Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 One easy way to make a good snug diffuser is to simply get a narrow-ish balloon and make holes in with a heated needle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monil Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Anyone in the UK actually bought one of these things online? Where from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheeshabum Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Here is the rubber filter thing that goes on the bottom of the stem. [url="http://www.filterheba.com/contact.htm"]http://www.filterheba.com/contact.htm[/url] Besides cleaning the air going through the water, is this a difusser? Will it work the same as the metal machined one above. Iknewoctopus deserves a medal, or be shot at dawn if he doesn't mass produce and sell the diffuser he made.

txbrit31 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 I would think, and very well may be proven wrong, that a t-shirt would not do it. the holes are so small and so vast that it may not diffuse at all. It would filter to a degree, but I think the sound would remain virtually the same. Could be wrong though. I'm a theologian, not a physicist.

ZAP Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 I have one of those Heba filter things... It's quite good. You get 2 in the pack. One for smaller hookahs and one for bigger ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monil Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 ZAP where did you get it from? Only UK place I've found is online, Shisha Pipe UK - £10 a go - rip off (Heba say end user price is 1USD). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txbrit31 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I've spoken with King Mo about where he got the Heba filter. I'm probably going to London this weekend, so will try to see if I can pick up a few whilst down there. I've been pondering the t-shirt idea more. (It makes for better time than actually working on my thesis). I have come up with my own idea. In most grocery stores one can buy one of those food strainers that looks like window screen material- but it safe for boiling water and such. I would think if you could cut a piece out and fashion it to fit over the end - with maybe 1/2 to 3/4" over hang- you might have a decent diffuser. I was thinking of using orthodontists type rubber bands to hold it on. I won't be able to try it for a month or so (in process of moving back to the US) but I'll try it and let you know- unless an easier method comes forward.

sheeshabum Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Do you mean this? [url="http://www.filterheba.com/contact.htm"]http://www.filterheba.com/contact.htm[/url] Its been out a while. As a filter, in the water. A guy from Lebanon makes it.This looks like the photo above. Its great for any one whose religion says "Be Fruitful and Multiply" like Jews, Catholics and......well, I'd better not name the 3rd denomination, they might have a world wide riot.

Smashraj84 Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Arguily.com sells those Heba filters. I'm tempted on buying a few but I wanna buy some other stuff so I don't pay $10 shipping for a filter.http://www.arguily.com/dispSubCat.asp?subcat_id=30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c4r80n Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 the pen cap from the Uniball was too small, so I grabbed a sharpie cap (double ended ones) and stuck it in there and melted holes with a paperclip in a spiral pattern.Damn it's stealthy now! I like it a lot.Oh and I was trying Tangiers Chocolate for the first time. mmmmmmmm. It was fansastic. Lotsa flavor! Actually chocolaty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Thank you, C4r80n. I tried for a long time in vain to actually make a workable chocolate. Its not easy. Some people like it, that's what pleases me most and makes my hours of smoking my own god-awful trial and error mixtures worth while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djnick Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 that uniball was too small for me too. ill try the sharpie. as far as the heba filter, maybe we can contact the site and ask for a different shipping method. im pure that thing weighs nothing, and using usps shouldnt cost more than a few $ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
