shonimus Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 So I got one of the smiley bowls from Hookahcompany.com. It took a little bit of work, but it's definitely a great buy. It uses a lot less heat and I get to watch the tobbacco burn when I'm smoking. The glass screen makes me feel better because I'm skeptical about smoking off of aluminum foil/metal every night. I believe that this was a good purchase. Word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattlePope Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 It's actually the Hawaiian flag. Common misconception, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattlePope Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Yeah. That's why the red, white, and blue stripes are on it. It's a common misconception so don't feel bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattlePope Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 [quote name='cabanapatio']its made of glass? Wouldn't that crack easily with a rapid temperature change? :?:[/quote] The change isn't rapid. It would gradually warm up if you put coals on and gradually slow down if you take them off. Grass does crack though if it's rapid temperature change, for example, taking a windshied that has been covered with snow for the night, and throwing hot water on it.

PersianPride Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Just curious as to how you can see the tobacco burn, wouldn't the glass fog up as the glycerine is turned into vapour? Pictures would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiley Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 The glass we use is Pyrex. Also the bowls have been cured in a Kiln for 20hours. This creates a stronger glass. I've taken cold screen and placed them on a range set on High. no problems. i don't suggest doing that. But it can be done. Also because glass is a conductor of heat you use less charcoal. saveing you money. Your srceen should last a great deal of time. remember it's glass. If you want to clean them. you can use rubbing alochol. Smiley 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
