Got this 14" mini inline tube from badbackglass today. The inline is 50x5mm and the tube itself is 34x3mm. The joint is 14mm.

This thing rips very nice and the small bubble towards the bottom of the tube catches the splash well. This guy is doing some cool stuff, and I dig the old school style as well.

This is the picture Jim sent me. I will toss up a better shot once I dig up my digital camera.

Shibbydonkey : This was a custom designed tube to meet my specs and I paid for the work before the work was started. I think that if someone else wanted the same style tube done again he would probably charge more. Contact him on etsy, he will get back quick I am sure.

BigManNew : Yeah, the diffuser portion of the inline is massive.

minitrkn420 : Hell yeah it hits bad ass. Beets my HBG inline tube into the ground. Would be dope if you could post up some pics of your custom when it shows up, I would love to see more of Jim's work.

ja rasta : it is 14 inches tall in total.

To all requesting what this tube cost, it goes for $170 shipped with an ice pinch slide. Sorry it took so long to get the price, I just did not want to post how much a custom item cost me before talking to the artist.

I just sent him a message on etsy about some custom work but he hasn't replied yet (no problem though). I was wondering wether or not you know if he does do custom work?

This tube is custom, based off of a hops peashooter but set up to be a burly portable camping tube. Jim made it EXACTLY how I asked.

I agree, and his prices are more than fair for ultra sick worked pieces. I am saving my pennies for a showerhead straight tube from him, to use as my daily. Can't wait.

I gotta get a milk vid up of this tube, it clears like nothing else I have seen.

how did you guys get in contact with him? the conversation thing in etsy doesn't work (or he's not replying to it)

Looks like a great inline man, I've had my eyes on badback glass since I saw him pop up on etsy, it's all really neat stuff. I really want to pick up one of his pieces in the (hopefully) near future.

At the moment he is not replying to mine either. And I'm trying to work out payment with him. But I have not heard from him for a few days. So I figure it is because of the holidays

You are probably right, I am sure he will get back to you some time. He is a really good dude but I am sure he is getting a more business nowadays than he is used to judging by his sales #'s on etsy. That couples with the holidays is probably causing delays.
