I've got a worked 2011 BC gridded showerhead ac coming my way, should be here tomorrow! I'm pretty amped about this purchase, I love my toro circ ac and I really think there are only a few better ashcatchers on the market today, this being one of them. Hopefully it will live up to my expectations, but I have a hard time seeing it let me down.

NIce Toro bong! Every time I hit a Toro bong I get this feeling of " Why in the fuck did they make this bong so small" :) I think they would be great bongs but not so if your 6'5" or above :)

Sweet new stuff! I like the toro! But I think I love my SG still better :D ;) I'm really digging the small oil bubbler pieces... they are great.

I saw this.... I know a guy who knows a guy that bought one... I can't believe he paid $420 for it! Insanneee.... he was like "it came with the oil dome" :?

I hope you got a better deal! :)

i am NO hater. :cool:

i charge 35 for a spoon, maximum. i am often told they are worth 60. i could never charge that much and feel right about it. if it weren't for my wife i'd simply give everything away for free.

it's called a conscience. i have one. ;)

Do you make bongs, bubblers, or ash catchers?

most of this clear glass tube stuff is done on a lathe. it's not even technically "hand blown". the tubing is made on a machine, it is welded together on a machine. a machine prints the "logo" and a machine sticks it on the glass.

as a glass blower i find the prices and the hype behind it all embarrassing. i am ashamed that consumers are being taken advantage of simply because of the "subject matter".

i am on YOUR SIDE.

I have personally only seen a couple hand blown bongs but they have all been awesome. I agree prices for the designer bongs are out of control. You can get decent no name cheaper ones but most of them hit like you would think a cheaper piece would.

Do you have a thread somewhere with your for sale stuff? I have seen a couple things here and there but not any for sale.

i think my biggest issues is that all this clear, lathe, tube work is taking away from some really good artistic stuff being done. and not by me, but by 100's of other artists.

there is some really good stuff being overlooked ====> http://www.glasspipes.org/

Went with a friend today to a headshop we've never been to before. Had some pretty heady glass, and i think its the first shop around with concentrate supplys! I didnt get anything but he picked up a nice worked dome.
