HMK's awesome Vapes

I was just checking out HMK's very cool vapourizers, looks like they kick ass. I'm a little fuzzy though on exactly how to use them. I hear the pad to smoke off of is titanium. Do you heat that up with a propane torch or do you put a piece of activated charcoal on it. It looks like it would do a great job of cooling off your hoot. I love water pipes and I also like smoking BHO. This looks like the best of both worlds. If anyone has a little more insight to these great contraptions, please post and inform those of us that haven't been fortunate enough to try one yet. Thx, om

some use propane but butane torches are a bit less bulky and loud. i use to heat ti in pliers and hold over a bowl of a water bong, but worked on the idea a bit till it was dialed in. you heat the ti when the swingarm is swung up, swing it under the bell and add your oil hit with a poker of some kind. inhale just before you dab on the pad. also its nice to wait some seconds for the ti to cool from red for a cooler vapor.

Definitely used one of these bad boys. It was one that was given to an old OG member (krownedking) in exchange for a HVY bong.

they work well! I highly recommend them.


on a similar note, a friend purchased an item based on a similar principle.

this device was essentially a bong (with percolators) cut off above the bowl/downstem. it is essentially a tube with a big opening on the bottom and a percolator.

the item comes with hot knives. you are supposed to use it as a "straw" or "tube" to suck the smoke coming off a hot knife. it actually works very well. I will get a pic up as soon as i can get him to bring it back.

the vaporizer that Oilmeister is talking about still works better.


on that note: wasnt the original design made by a woman? someone's sister i believe... maybe I am wrong...

the origional design was designed and made by me. i comissioned my sister to make me a down curve at first for my vaper unit, then asked her to make whole units, except the metal work which i do. the style of the vape is similar to little water bongs she used to make. her and i have worked on design and functionality details.

titanium makes pretty colors a bit when heated. blue and violet. sort of like stains on it. aluminum is much lighter in color, ti is darker. ti is much harder to bend too. both break if over bent tho.
