I'll be looking for it !
Figured I'd post my new toro here.. with a milkshot
Toro circ diffuser.... Got it for free!
Always sort of wanted a toro.. This thing is cool.. Nothing TOO special about it, besides it's really light, seems like sturdy glass... it fits in your hand very well... and it gets that hit nice and airy... I'd still take my 18mm sovereignty upgrid over this toro circ any day... But it is a nice, and small desk-piece... Not to mention the 14mm Ti Nail gets hot really fast for some easy dabbin!
I need to clean my tubes and do some BHO running!

Hey I'm not trying to hate on Toro here, BUT the vibes around the community is that Toro sold out and went way commercial. A lot of people I know are turning their backs on Toro (despite their perfect designs).
What have you guys heard?

from what bubba tells me he just makes some peieces sends em in and if they like em they retail em and he cuts profit
by commercial do you mean warehouse glass presses and such?
if so i don kno bout that cause they have some of the most unique diffused ive layed my eyes on
but ive always felt phx , roor, and toro were all pretty 'Commercial"
but nothing like Kaos stamped pressed glass peices that break on a whims notice
the roor and toro are hand blown to my knowledge if im wrong im sorry

Agree 100%. Im not anywhere near west coast but, locally at the shops around me there is a bad vibe when it comes to toro.

What kind of USB microscope do you have? I wanted to buy one for this reason and just for overall fun........ They are pretty cheap, about $50-ish on Amazon, but so many models to choose from.......!

I got this one
http://www.amazon.com/Microscope-Handsfree-Industrial-Biological-Inspection/dp/B0051ML8FS
Its pretty cheap and basic. Its not really 40x-400x because the zoom control is also the focus. So you can only get it to focus on one magnification. But, I got some pretty cool shots with it and am easily able to see the color of the trichome heads with it.

Thats a 445nm laser, and being used in the most dangerous way possible.
First, assuming he is wearing safety glasses, they need to be VERY SPECIFIC safety glasses that filter out the 445nm wavelength..... I cant tell the wattage of the laser, looks around 200mW or so. That's enough that about 1 second of an exposure to that laser light (even if reflected!) would permanently blind you -- permanently. Really, like forever.
I have a 445nm laser, the Wicked Laser Arctic 1000mW or 1 Watt laser. Its has a visible beam of about 7000 meters (4.5 miles) in the dark. They now make one called the Krypton in a green color (different nm wavelength) with an 85 mile beam. 20 miles further out than Earths atmosphere. You can buy it for $300 direct from the manufacturer. I've had my Arctic since they shipped the original versions.
The laser itself isnt purging the oil, he's really just using it to pop bubbles. 445nm lasers are intense enough to light matches, burn through wallets, and even pop the strings on the video arcade machines that hold the PSP3's in the air instead of paying the dollar to try and use the games knife. And, of course, to blind you. Since the oil he's got is dark in color, it's able to pop the bubbles. If he had better oil it'd have a harder time. You cant burn a hole through light or white objects easily (or at all) with handheld lasers......
I think its neat for show, but functional-wise................................no idea.

The guy who runs toro is kind of an asshole... He makes that fairly clear in the youtube videos
.For what they are, toros aren't worth it IMO... I got this one free though so it was worth it

Thanks for the info Rkitty. I just thought it was interesting and way over the top.
imo a gentle vac purge... then water purge... then good slow stir over a month is what yields the best erls. but we all have our preferences.
Also thanks for the feedback SrV. I like to check out the shit talking I hear haha. and just to make it clear here. I rep Revere Glass because Dustin is the nicest guy I've ever met, only works in direct sales to keep the prices down, and he forced me to start working with glass.
