I've a vaporbrothers hands free and replacing the screen, have to clean kief residue out, is a nightmare for me. I went and got a 3/8 x 36 oak dowel and I'm still going nutz w/this confound contraption.




So, I was wondering what the mofoing trick? I love my vape, but damed screen is harshing my glow...help please.

And, hon, if you run a flame through the whip every now and then, it won't clog up as often. If your lungs are bad, get a friend to do it for you- your friend will get his head, even with no pot in the whip!

And make sure you have the right size of screen! I ended up trimming a screen down with a wire cutter. Now I make sure I get the smaller sized screen!- Granny:hippy:

Hey granny how do you clean your hands-free whip (the glass stem part), mine's gotten rather covered and i figure theres no reason not to clean it, but if those layers are smokeable and/or revapable, theres certainly no reason to wash it away

Same Q. My whip is amber as rip.

Hey granny I'm sure your the one that told me to get dowel and to burn screen. ( I did both thanx). And they say you cant teach an old man new tricks....

thanx for the site ototto

Is there any way to cheaply replace the glass part of a broken whip. I have a "vapezilla" it's the one with the digital read out, works awesome, even have the little air compressor to plug into the side that forces the air through, but I broke the damn glass end that goes into the machine. I don't even know what you would call it. I talked to vape bros once but they said it was like $57! WTF, for a 6 inch piece of glass, surely there has to be a cheaper alternative?

I clean my glass with vodka and this skinny bottle brush (I think it is for cleaning old percolator type coffee makers), evaporate it down and add the "sludge" to some overly-dry pot.

KS, I would look into laboratory supply houses. Just google "pyrex laboratory supplies"- It may take a while to find a matching piece, but I'm willing to bet that those $57 glass pieces will turn out to cost less than $20!
