Guys, I can't stress enough, when you are around the pieces you love you must be very careful. NEVER BE IN A HURRY while cleaning or transporting a piece. Today I ran to the bus stop to head oer to my friend's house with my SSFG ice pinch in my pocket, cause I needed to clean it and was thinking of trading it. A few leaps as I was running towards the bus stop and it fell out.

*Clink*

Broken solidly into two pieces just above the joint.


Into the burial box you go, little one...rest in pieces

It really is one of the worst feelings. one's glass is a sacred link between him or her and their medicine...

Haha, WOW guys! Ray from SSFG saw this thread and decided to register an account just to offer me a brand new 18mm slide! Not every day you meet a company with customer service like that. I can hardly believe it, karma is awesome I guess. I will keep you guys updated and treasure my new slide forever!

There is one in an auction right now in the glass market but its already waaaaay overpriced. You can get the clear Luke Wilson disk diffused slides for $45 at my local shop, except whenever they get a shipment in it sells out in a day....

Where are you located?

I'm in dc region. It is pretty surprising to me that multi-hole slides and disc-diffused haven't become more popular. seems to make sense

Does Capitol Hemp always have them in stock? I go to school at GWU so if they do I'll have to stop by when I come back in the fall and pick one up.

This baby came today...steve you got it right, Ray COMPLETELY killed this thing.

The ice pinch size (4 pinches) is perfect. it's even better than my old one.

the bowl is the perfect size

the herb doesn't pull through prematurely like with my roor 18 mm slide

the work is sickly amazing, it's mainly blue

there is this really cool stoney looking thing in the handle. ray what is that?

the circulated diffuser was really cool. I think the smoke did go through the slits but I wasn't sure. am I testing a prototype here? I love teh design personally, but I think the roor.us standard one that I have is a little better. I have only taken two snaps though cause I ran out of medicine. my friend, josh, on the other hand, says that he greatly prefers the new diffuser after several hits. but we each agree that if it had slightly bigger slits it would be amazing.


pictures to come later.

Further review:

The ice pinch is my favorite slide ever. no buds pull through and it has very little drag.

i have decided to give the diffuser to a friend. It fits better in his roor and I like my roor.us diffuser more. all my friends agreed that the same style with bigger slits would be awesome. for some reason the new diffuser was really unreliable though and was giving my friends and I really harsh hits that were impossible to clear, but sometimes it worked really well.
