Hey everyone! Are you a fan of N8, Micro, Salt, Samson, LaceFace, Snoddgrass, or some other amazing artist? Share your favorite artist, or what your smoking out of!

I've been away from the high-quality boro scene for a little while now, but I have a very humble collection. I'm either using my Syn mini with a worked showercap and splashguard, or my US Tubes beaker with a cheap PHX ash catcher. By no means top of the line and innovative, but it does the job for me. :)

YAY MY FAVORITE TYPE OF THREAD!!! I tried to start one of these, didn't take off very well :'(

BUT MAYBE YOU CAN HELP ME?!
I'm relatively new to the concentrates scene and I've been looking for a good oil rig below $300. Any recommendations? I picked up a David Goldstein recently because I thought it would be good for flowers + dabs, but unfortunately I found out it sucks for dabbing. That damn fritted disc is so purifying it almost steals them from you!
So, recommendations? Happy to have you here on the road by the way <3

A dab rig for $300? Hmmm a mothership mini would be my suggestion. Depending on the shop you find them in they range from 300 - 400. Worth every penny, has a built in quartz honey pot! (Youtube :D)
I can't share to much of my glass collection as a lot of it is unique, but I will admit I have some 26 pieces, most of which are by major artist :)
My major dabbing rigs are a Mothership Torus, a Mobious double stereo matrix, and mothership mini when I travel!

Aww, wish you could share! How crazy would it be is someone doxx'd you using your peices? Haha that's insane to think about, but I understand your concern! I'm gonna have to check that out... the honey pot thing looks neat!
Is it something like this?

If not, mind finding me a pic/vid of the one you're talking about? <3

Yeah, can't be to careful! The one you linked is essentially the same the difference is, the one you linked has the mothership perc, the one you want has a showercap (26 slits I believe)

I've noticed them up for sale in used glass groups a lot (Boromarket, and glass groups on facebook) and have been going consistently for $350 there. I recommend checking those out.
Have you ever looked up a Sovereignty Recycler?

THAT LOOKS DOPE! DAMN! Definitely gonna be looking around for something like that. I'll let you know if I have success!!
And yes I LOVE Sovereignty pieces! Them and mobius make some truly awesome tubes.

Most of my collection is Sov :)
Two recyclers, short and tall, 8 arm, 12 arm, two pillars, and some less well known tubes ;)
I will say this. Mothership is the only other artist I would consider to be as high of quality as Sov. Those two rules the scientific game. Check this out:

And there coolest tube ->

Did you know Sov's collabing with HOPS right now?

Also Micro has Mario sections.. you know.. with coin box's in them hahaha :D

Do you use a different piece for dabs than you do for flower?
Do you prefer to dab? Ti or glass nail?
Or do you prefer flowers? Favorite strain?
Whats your opinion on Dave Goldsteins? Ever tried one? They're fun to watch :)
-
Yes, rigs for flower are for flower specifically, and vice versa. The fats & tars in the Trichome are mostly hydrophobic, so when you keep the rig for oil specifically it never builds up a grungy taste. You could turn the thing amber with reclaim, and still on taste the slightly bit of hashyness in the water.
In a perfect life I would smoke flower 35% of the time, bubble hash 35%, ice wax 20% of the time and shatter / defatted shatter 10% of the time. That changes progressively, depending on my needs.
Out of Ti, Quartz Glass, or Boro their are two clear choices, Quartz or Ti. Borosilicate (glass) is mostly ignored because it shatters / cracks after consistent use of a real torch. Quartz does not. I prefer Quartz to Ti as though it takes longer to heat it heat to a slightly lower consistent temperature, preserving flavor! Also Ti requires 'seasoning' for the same reason cast iron pans do, they absorb the oil when heated.
I would recommend the quartz honeypot (which can be bought seperately from the mini before mentioned), or a Quartz thermal DI nail. Having tried all ranges of domesless, and non and about every Ti or quartz nail out there. The only one I havn't tried is the E-Nail by Task Rok.
I like all ranges of strains. I think Gage Green Genetics, Kingdom Organic Seeds, DNA Genetics, and a few others are masterful breeders. I love Hindu Kush, Grape Stomper OG, Inferno Haze
Goldstiens tube are nice, fritted percs are clever. They clog rather quickly, making grunge off a constant purchase. The pulls is a tad heavy for my lungs once it begins to clog, because my lungs are a tad weak, though I love the diffusion. Very fun to watch indeed :)
Same question on you?

Enlightening answer!
I really need to get a separate piece. I've been slacking. I recently got a new living situation and moved states and had to leave behind all my old pieces, but I still visit them multiple times a year. I've got some BlueDots back home and my Goldstein with me here.
Like I said, I'm in the market for an oil rig. The DG was attractive to me because it looked like it could function as both, but after dabbing out of a Toro, I don't think my DG does dabs the justice they deserve.
Also, prior to the last couple months, my exposure to waxes, hashes, and oils has been limited because my home state doesn't come across those things easily and it was before I ventured onto the road. I'm so happy to be here and I feel like my life has changed now that I get to use this wonderful place.
Did you get a chance to check out my dab shots? I think I posted it in my other glassheads thread. Also, in my forum signature is a link to some pics/videos I have of my pieces and products I've gotten off the road!

I did look in on your Reddit page pictures :) Nice man! I must admit, I feel spoiled making my own concentrates.
Well, out of the concentrates you've tried, what are your favorite forms? Shatter, honeycomb, nectar? Do you prefer indicas or sativas?

It has to be the Captain Krunch Honeycomb wax I got from TheGreenOvenDoor. I also got some good concentrates from CaliforniaDreams recently. I have 2g more on the way. I'm sure I don't know shit when it comes to good concentrates and a lot of people on the cannabisextracts subreddit shit talk whatever I post :D
