hehe...I've seen glass like that. I used to have a glass bubble that looked like a light bulb. U put the weed in the glass bubble, and heat the glass from the outside.

So instead of burning the weed w/ flame, ur like baking it w/ hot air. Is that how those pipes work?

Howdy. I use a Silver Surfer Vaporizer (Willie Nelson and Snoop Dog approved) almost exclusively to smoke now, but I bought a Ubie (actually 2 of 'em) and I really like them. They work really well.

Well, at least it's cheap....

The problem with the Ubie and similar 'vaporizing' setups seems to be heat control. The flame must be held at just the right distance away to heat the cannabis to vaporizing temperature, but not all the way to combustion temperature. That seems like a pretty fine line to me.

I've never tried one, though, so what do I know? I spent considerably more money for my Purple Days vaporizer ($150), and I'm very happy I did.

I bought em,used it once,gave it away.Its a nice novelty and I suppose you could call it vaporizing but for any real head work grab a hotbox or like machine.

Just not worth it in my opinion.
