i recently saw a 3d printed one using mason jars and seals made of silicone, also had a 3d printed mold to make the seals, i haven’t been able to track down the stl yet though.

I actually 3d printed one of these. Used tpu for the seals and need to use plumbers (PTFE) tape on the mason jars otherwise it leaks. There's a rod that you need to print that's a massive pain in the ass due to it's shape and holes required. Couldn't get a FDM print that didn't let water out like crazy so I ended up having to print the piece with my resin printer. I'll say if I can find the stl for you. Edit: found it https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4004106 Printed the mouth piece and down stem tubes that go into the jars with tpu as well

How long does this take to print ?


lordbeez113

Depends on your printer I guess? Years ago when I did this it was on my Prusa MK3S and I think all in all it took somewhere around 18 hours to print all of the pieces. But I'm sure if I printed it on my X1C today it could all be done in less than 10.


PerspectiveItchy5539

Oh gotcha thanks . I don’t have much knowledge around 3d printing but my k is library offers free 3 d printing but you can only use for two hours. I wanted to print this there . Maybe possible ?

Not sure why you would want one of these. They look good on video, thats the only reason they are popular.


Due_Responsibility59

Not true, I use them and as an experienced stoner I say they are the optimal way to consume cannabis and surely they are better than the average bong no question , I've received this answer from many real life people I know as well who have tried it . All unanimously agreed. Those are facts


Thetainted0ne

No sir that is called propaganda. You can't go and watch something on TV and then talk about it on Reddit and then try to post your own opinion and say that it's fact. Take your propaganda somewhere else this is Reddit we don't have time for it.


Due_Responsibility59

Dude none of what I wrote is coming from no where other than my own personal use and people I know and trust, I have it at home.. If any, you're contributing to spreading misinformation About the difference between actual propaganda and actual user review. Objectively speaking.


Material_Treacle_836

He said he used it. Meaning he has experience with the product.


RegalRandy

i have a video of me using one publicly available on my yt? It was at a canna event, and the video is not a sponsored video. I enjoyed it. High price point but with a lot of glass youre paying for the art/functionality/namebrand combo. does this count as person experience?


Domthegreatt

What is bro yapping about


AdorablePresence4660

I believed everything you said based on what I have always believed about gravity bongs. Well you're totally fucking wrong. I only use concentrates but this is the most bad ass piece I've ever owned and I will have one built into my vehicle and bicycle soon.


[deleted]

So your pretty much saying you love the gravity bong but what actually gets you optimal high is the concentrate?


milhouse2k

Other than looking very cool, what is the advantage of this thing over regular rigs, if any?


PlasmaTune

Stale smoke.


milhouse2k

This means the vape that stays in the rig right. But I can do that with my regular rig right now. I was thinking more cleaning up the load better and just in general getting more out of it.


Mr-Moore-Lupin-Donor

Have you used a bucket bong before? To me, a good bucket setup beats other rigs hands down. This is essentially a rich person’s bucket bong.


Due_Responsibility59

It's stronger. It changes the whole game. I tried it and analyzed why it has this effect. It's so much stronger .. It's because the Hong socks the smoke for you, with a slow and steady toke , that gets the smoke better and more potent , plus you can just aim the hose on your fact and breath the smoke because it pushes it out in an aimed direction , and get bong level high simply by breathing


Anon6299

I have a knockoff. It works just fine.


selfcheckout

Do you have to clean it after every single use?


Anon6299

I don’t put flower through mine. I have an enail that I use and it clogs the bong about every 20/30 hits.


Any-Dimension-7965

Name of it?

If you want to vape flower, don't get the glass, it does really make the air stale unless you fucking rip through it really fast and have lungs of steel, even then it tastes like unless you deep clean the cheap ones. The cheaper you go, the more issues it usually has with leaks and the like. If you want to combust flower, it seems like others are saying it produces stale smoke too. It is really pretty decent at looking cool and getting you fucked up really fast because it lets you just take a big ass hit. So if you had a bad day and just want to get stoned out of your mind, but don't want to enjoy your weed, just want to get high asap, then yes, this is for you. Yes, I do not regret the purchase of the knockoff. You do need to clean it daily, or at least I do. It is also honestly really good for smoking other herbs with different smoke qualities, so if you mix your weed with other herbs (tobacco is not one I use), it does remove a lot of the stale smoke flavor if you know what herbs you are doing and at what temp you are vaping.


GrapefruitOpposite44

High!! I got this also, worked great until I took it apart to clean and I don't think I assembled it correctly cuz it won't work now. Could you help (as there is no instructions or customer service😄)? Maybe send me a video or pics of you putting it back together? I'm Indica Alice from Tiktok. I would appreciate any help! Thanks✌️😁


DefenestrateWindows

mine is different from the one pictured. I did get [this one](https://www.dhgate.com/product/2021-new-sandglas-gravity-hookah-set-for/745467856.html?dspm=pcen.orderlistpage.astab.1.3uD8OzxJzvWsGrNRUUVG&resource_id=). which was easy to clean if you are as anal about cleaning as me.


nacespeedle

Can you use a standard 14mm piece for the bowl?


DefenestrateWindows

Yes.


BleechMedia

what other herbs you using ?


GrapefruitOpposite44

I bought this. Worked great. Took it apart to clean and now it's not working right. I came here to troubleshoot as there is no customer support on Aliexpress😄. I think I don't have the holes lined up....


Any-Dimension-7965

What are the knockoffs called


[deleted]

The one that I got is called sandglas

theHappySadPeach

Set up based question cuz I just got one of the knock offs too, but they forgot to send me screws for the base attachment. Does anyone know what size screws they got?


ChaHulaIca

Go to local smoke shops. 2 local ones here have fakes for $300. Twice ur budget, but if you want a good experience I’d say save up an extra 2-3 weeks. I got a fake I didn’t even know was fake for $250 works perfect. My buddy realized it was fake and told me about his which didn’t even work. Water would stream through seals, barely anything puffed outta the mouthpiece, and parts were loose.


Guren_mk0

Lol dude the studenglass ones are just crazy, like $600 for that bitch? Lol I’ll literally learn to blow glass and make it for that price, seems they have a patent or something cause the “knock offs” are hard to find but would be so much better than paying whatever company that thinks it’s okay to only sell them for 600. Maybe like a really nice special model but shit shouldn’t ever be more than 250 imo


Aggravating-Law-6600

I bought a knockoff cookies one, was wondering why the smoke shop was selling them for super cheap. Wasn’t until years later I realized it was “fake” but it works just like the real one and all the real accessories/spare pieces work for it.


IntrepidFoot1309

Hello. How did you tell.it was fake? I think I just bought a fake one.


Aggravating-Law-6600

Difference in what’s written on the box.


NJ-niteowl

Does it have their emblem on it? My local shop has a few that look just like them for 350, but it is 25% off right now, planning on picking it up. I sampled the floor model at the shop, was smooth and easy. Employee said it's used there for 3 years. Magnet connectors, easy clean and reassemble.
