erufiku Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 It took three hours but damn well worth it if you ask me. Only part I wish I had done differently would be using something better than paper to make the handles "fat". Pics: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erufiku Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 By the way, it took so long because I had to disassemble the original KM hose without destroying it (let me tell you one thing, they don't skimp on the glue). Then, the fun part of putting the hose into the shell and sewing it all up by hand. Finally, making the handles "fat" by rolling some paper, and then sewing the handle covers up...This better last me a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename067 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 (edited) Nicest hoses man. Personally got 5 of em.Say, how is the flexibility on it after inserting that inner 'tube'? Edited March 21, 2008 by Codename067 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erufiku Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 The flex is so-so... Biggest problem is the part that goes into the hose port on the base -- it's just too big and heavy because I put the paper in to make it look/feel like the real hose.Perfectly smokable, though (as expected) you can't twist it around as much as you would with a normal hose.Anyway, until I get more cash this is my best stab at smoking with a Nammor/Razan.

Between the cover and the hose when I wash? Yeah, didn't really think that one through Will have to be careful when I do it. No biggie - the hose was so leaky I had to use 4 grommets to make it smokable before. Now at least I can run some water/alcohol/vinegar through it every week and not worry about all that stuff.Also, I was too lazy to go to the only Home Depot we have in Montreal (it's -20*c... horay for spring!) and vinyl is the only stuff they had at Rona around the corner.Definitely going to get something w/ more flex for my other hose (MYA long handle one).

Stinkyfisherman Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Very cool design and I like the way you wrapped it to give it the real hose look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
