cafesaden Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 okay so last night like always on thursday nights I have hookah night at my house. I set up like 4 hookahs and have like 20 people over. so anyways it was about 3 in the morning and everyone had left except my cousin and my best friend. and I didn't get to smoke very much earlier with there being 20 people and all. SO i decided to set up ANOTHER hookah. i took out my trusty green one, which is my favorite, only gets brought out for personal sessions. went to unscrew the stem from the base and the base broke in my hand gashing my hand 4 times. so instead of smoking hookah i was picking pieces of glass out of my gashes.so i guess dont buy this hookah even though it hit amazing. I was just stupid and grabbed more on the glass base and not on the metal fittings when i unscrewed it.lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rez Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 how hard were you trying to unscrew the stem? it seems odd that the glass would just shatter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cafesaden Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 not that hard, when I first bought the hookah i noticed a hairline crack on the inside right underneath the threads. didn't think anything of it but now I am pretty sure that is what caused it.

rez Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 yup i would say that caused it as well. it is kinda odd for something like that to just shatter out of nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smileys Ulti Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Dude that sucks so bad I had a eygyptian vase break when I twisted the stem off. I cut the shit out myself.I know which Hookah your talking about. I have the same one and have had zero problems with. But I do grab it by the metal fitting. Soorry to hear that. Hope your ok. That crack and the pressure is what caused the breakage. I really dought the quality had anything to do with your miss fortune. But Caos does like to play around once and awhile. Luck of the draw I guess. Smiley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cafesaden Posted March 10, 2007 Author Share Posted March 10, 2007 yeah the glass went almost to the bone and i thought that beside sthe 3 good gashes that there wasn't anything else. today at work (pizza place) was putting pineapple on a pizza and i guess i had like little nicks from the glass like 30 of them all over my hand. yeah i doubt it was quality thing smoked so goood. wonder if i could jsut get a new base somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobbyMan Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 some hookah bases in my opinion are just garbage, im not too new to hookah, just this forum, but i had ordered a simple hookah with a simple vase for a pretty penny, and i left the vase upside down overnight to dry at my girldfirends house, and as dumb as this sounds, a good 4inch peice just fell right off, cracked right off, and fell into the sink... so that pssed me off, so the next night we took out another similar hookah, and started it up, while the vase (past broken one) was standing still in the same place right above my head, we were having a good time watching tv and being quiet not to wake my girls brother, and then just out of no where another peice about 5 inches blew right out the side, and still kept its shape, peices just flew everywhere.. not to mention another huge peice... also when i say blew off, its didnt simply fall off, it flew a good 6 to 8 inches away from it, with no one even looking at it... anybody ever that happen??? or am i just "lucky" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or am I mistaken?Edit: My bad, it was someone else. Did you know another member here has the exact same cartoon for their sig? Hence, my confusion.

Sonthert Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Craptacular.Glasses are real cheap. One of the reasons I like European jars (Bohemians, Rumanians, etc.) is they are sturdier. Hands, on the other hand...um...hands are hard to replace. Be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
