ryno Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Well, about a week ago, my base on my hookah broke, and as I'm broke, I needed to find a new base that was free until I get some money. I was looking around my house and found these old glass milk jugs I got from an old family dairy, and luckily, the top of it fit my stem prefectly, and actually a little better than my old base (it was a sahara smoke hookah...) Haven't smoked it yet, but I plan tonight, so I'll get pics of how it smokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That steam has been in need of a good cleaning for a long time. I think its more the color of the steam than rust.Simplexcoda, there will be more pics, but there was no modding the steam at all. My gromment fits snuggly in the top of the jug. Pics of it smoking will be up soon, I forgot my camera when I was smoking it tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hookahmon Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 When I first looked at the picture I thought the bowling pin was hollowed out and was the base... That would be sweet. Just thought I should throw that out there... haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
