Clouds of Vapor just got a huge shipment of Trippy Tips in, including doughnut tips. They won't last long if you are interested in any.

Trippy Tips
You may have already seen them, and maybe they are not what you have in mind, but there are a number of anodized choices here...I wish someone would bring out some good anodized stainless steel tips.
That the tanbur I mentioned above, its real cool, but boy it is heavy and a little thicker than it appeared in the photo, I like it. Makes my KGO with a tank look like some sort of magic wand. Oh, Dusty, I think we spoke before regarding the saber touch APV, I finally ordered one and am waiting for it to get here, of course it is black with black end caps, and an all black phiniac tank and trippy tip black tapered . I cant wait to play with all the accessories I have collected with the saber in mind.
Did you ever own any Zippos in your "smoking" days?I am still reeling over the fact that I dropped $25, including shipping on a drip-tip.
So, I bought a Tanbur today.. I saw one on a pipe mod, and remembered I had two pipes.

I love zippos, I probably have a dozen or more, I dont see getting rid of them. Does anyone out there have a diagram or "how to" for turning zippos into small box mods. Now, thats an idea !
My camera is working now...Sagewood is doing glass drip tips made to order.
I'd post a picture of mine, but my camera will not turn on at the moment.
NOTE: The issue with my camera is currently under review.
But here is a thread...

I just got mine yesterday, and I'm very happy with it.

While I can aesthetically appreciate the craftsmanship and colorfulness of the trippy, multicolored and hand blown glass tips, they aren't what I would like on my personal stuff. They evoke too vividly shadowy head shops with black lights and fuzzy neon mushroom posters. There is no way i want to be seen puffing on something that could be associated with that. I like precise color coordination and a sleeker look, so I tend to prefer stainless steel across the board.
I was just checking out the glass tips that Hot Vapes sells, and notice they have categories for "without o-ring" and "with o-ring". In the product description for the ones without, they say "These 510 tips have no o-ring, yea!", so I guess this is seen as a plus, at least by some. I'd never thought about it before, and the only drip tips I have without o-rings are some kinda cheap plastic-y ones that came with a particular carto.
On the one hand, I suppose tips without o-rings would be easier to get on...and maybe help prevent damage or breakage caused by trying to cram them on? On the other hand, I'd imaging they be less snug and secure once they're on, and more prone to falling off. I'd hate to pay glass tip prices, and have one drop on pavement or some other hard surface.
Thoughts anyone?
I can pick my ProVari with a full tank on it by the tip when using the Hot Vapes glass tips without o-rings, it is a very tight friction fit and does not require much force at all to seat it.

So they're easier to seat than ones with o-rings but no more likely to fall off? That does sound like a plus.
Another thing I'm curious about glass tips, with or without o-rings: with my current collection of tips (all non-glass so far) it's kind of a crap shoot as to which tips fit which devices well. I mainly use Vivi Novas, Stardusts, and cartos (usually Boge). Most of my tips fit the VNs and Stardusts, though some fit rather loosely, but in the case of the cartos it's a small subset that will fit at all, i.e. can't even get most of them seated. Seems like this would be more of an issue with glass tips, since I'd imagine they got considerably less give than acrylic, delrin or even metal tips?
