Sr. Verde's: ROLLITUP GLASS INDEX [Post your collection here]

diffusers and poorly cut perculators result in different feel of the hit. the Chinese glass tends to be not as thick and not as perfect. the joint attatchment is usually not as well done. im just going off the reviews I have read about them. I have actually not seen one in real life.. just the fact that its a 50$ roor is sketchy.. some poeple were saying they got a roor but it felt waaay lighter than the roor they had before. same model and size just thinner wall tubing. more inconsistencies such as bubbles and scars where the joint and perks are attatched. not flame polishing on the base and small little things like that that a glass connoisseur looks at. some roors the label will scratch off with a razor blade. apparantly these you can scratch with a razor and the label stays on. they have the sig most knockoffs dont have or do correctly. i have seen some knockoff roors and you can tell by picking them up.
 
to some a bong is a bong is a bong.. but to others a bong is also art. the art of scientific smoking and creating the smoothest hit possible. I wanted one to keep at work so I dont have to take my expensive glass to my work that is nothing but concrete floor. all my co workers love when i show up with a tube.
 
i have a shit ton of useless chinese joints.

sometimes even the size of the carb on a spoon can make a huge difference. i studied all this before i ever even started blowing glass. ;)

Yup I notice these guys use the plugs in alot of their pieces. I love this one with the drain on the reclaim catch and another drain on the main chamber. Def. gonna be pickin one up this week ill let ya know how it is.
 
put the checked piece back in the kiln and bumped it to 1250, pulled it out and most of the cracks were closed up. i put it in the flame and melted the shit out of it. i'm pretty sure i fixed it, but i could never sell it. the thing is a ticking time bomb.

good news is, .... i'm gonna use this one myself so i can take a pic or two as a teaser. let you all see what i got up my sleeve. my wife says it's pretty cool, so i need some second opinions. i may have pics up here by late tonight, tomorrow at the latest. if everything works out and it doesn't fall apart in the kiln.

:cool:

Delivering the goods once again, nice!

here is my cool-ass hammer, the space hammer: the bowl looks like a black hole sucking in galaxies. I didn't blow it, just lucky enough to have it.
