BIOMECH TOWER:

Work progressing quickly, thanks to some unexpected downtime in the day job.

I'm especially glad with how the "mini-chimney" assembly is coming together, it was a good idea to fill the lower circular hole with vent-fins. Couple small hoses and details, and it's almost good enough.

I'm trying to NOT go crazy with small details. In general I've decided that a piece should have a consistent level of overall detail, and for this project I'm setting the tininess limit of any added component at about 1 cm. Details on that component should not be smaller than 1mm. I'm using the detail level of the original watergun as a guide.

The bending of PVC pipe using heat is a success! Managing kinking while making tight turns is an issue, anything over 45 degrees with a turn radius of ~1" is difficult. That's okay for now, but bending jigs may be something I investigate in the future...

On November 27, 1978, angered that he wasn’t to be reappointed to the Board of Supervisors slot he resigned from on November 10, Dan White enters San Francisco City Hall at 10:30 a.m. through a basement window.

Mayor George Moscone agrees to meet with White, who shoots the mayor four times at point-blank range with a .38 Smith & Wesson revolver.

Leaving the 49-year-old father of four dead, White reloads and then walks to where the supervisors’ offices are located and asks Supervisor Harvey Milk, the state’s first openly gay elected official, if he can speak with him in private.

White ushers Milk into White’s former office and kills him with five gunshots, two to the back of his head.

A stunned and tearful Dianne Feinstein, president of the board, announces the murders: “Both Mayor Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk have been shot and killed… The suspect is Supervisor Dan White,” she tells reporters.

Tens of thousands of mourners form an impromptu candlelight march, beginning in the Castro District and ending at City Hall. Joan Baez leads the assembled in “Amazing Grace.” Moscone and Milk lay in state at City Hall. Moscone’s funeral is attended by 4,500 people.

Feinstein becomes mayor – the first woman to hold the office. She is mayor until 1988 and wins election as a U.S. Senator for California in 1992.

White surrenders to police officers one hour after the shootings. He is tried for first-degree murder, but his lawyers convince the jury that White’s depression creates “diminished mental capacity,” which prevents the premeditation necessary for first-degree murder.

Convicted of voluntary manslaughter, White is paroled in 1984 —  spending just over five years behind bars for the murders. On October 21, 1985, the 39-year-old White runs a hose from the exhaust pipe of his 1979 yellow Buick LeSabre into the passenger compartment, poisoning himself with carbon monoxide, the New York Times reports.

A brief tale of adventures in repair and stupid coincidences

So last weekend our dishwasher stopped cleaning stuff well, especially stuff on the top rack. It was also making a really obnoxious groaning/buzzing noise when run. We were contemplating the miserable cost of having to replace the whole thing, but we've also taken it apart and put it back together before, so why not at least give it a try.

And I won't deny that there's a deep satisfaction to feeling handy.

So we dismantle it. As I said, done before, but this time I'm really pulling the thing's guts out, the full sump motor assembly. Side note: the bits of stuff stuck in the drain pipe were beyond nasty. There was a lot of other gross stuff crammed into various recesses and encrusting screens, but that was the stuff that really smelled, I assume it was bits of rancid fat.

Well, the housings are fine, the impeller's fine, the motor shaft spins freely, without noise, and there's no play in it. I'd read once that buzzing from a motor could be a capacitor problem, so we take the fat 23.5μF thing off, and take it to an appliance repair shop, they obviously have a tester and tell us it's just fine. (Note to self, get a multi-meter that isn't from the bargain bin.)

Side note 2, small vicissitudes of life: taking the washing machine out meant disconnecting the hot water supply and the drain hose, which go to the hot water line and drain for the sink. A: turns out, if we take out the T-junction for the hot water line, the line to the faucet is no longer long enough. B: we happened to have a cap for the T-junction to the drain. But putting the mess back together we broke one of the nuts, and it leaked copiously. Cue a day of not being able to use the kitchen sink before we could make it to the hardware store for a replacement drain nut and a cap for the hot water t-junction. (We also got a flexible supply line for the dishwasher, because getting around the rigid copper line was the most frustrating part of working on the thing.)

So we're left with the decision making math. A new sump motor assembly is, shockingly, "only" 160$. (Also incredible is that they still make and sell this same assembly from our 20 year old dishwasher. I guess in some industries if it ain't broke they don't fix it.) A new dishwasher of comparable performance is around 600$. Obviously if the new assembly works, that's a huge savings. If it doesn't though, it's a fair amount of money almost literally down the drain.

We decide to reassemble the dishwasher and see if we've cleaned something or jogged something back into place and it will work better now. I'm halfway done and notice an extra part, a flat washer. In a device that mixes water and electricity, washers are exactly the sort of thing I wanna make sure are right. Nothing else jumped out at me so I hit up the web to figure out where it goes (shout out to Parts Select for hosting diagrams and copious pictures!). As I do so, something catches my eye.

(Can you spot the difference?)

The mangler (aka chopper assembly) covers the intake from the sump (where dirty water and food particles accumulate) to the main spray pump. Thus, if the mangler is no longer mangling, that screen is going to be clogged (and it was, with a mat of weird fibrous stuff). And if the intake is clogged, the pump is going to have a much harder job. I can only imagine I threw out the broken blades with the little pile of gunk and hard bits that had accumulated there under the plastic shield (there looked to be bits of pasta and beans in there).

A new mangler is 14$ and two day shipping. And I might've spent 160$ on a new sump+motor assembly (which includes a mangler) if I hadn't noticed. And while it's obvious and glaring now, I can't say for sure I would've spotted it if I hadn't gone looking for a spare washer's home. (Which was the spray arm assembly, by the way.)

I'll update this if it doesn't work, but otherwise, you must imagine cthulhubert happy (with their clean dishes).

[timemachine16606]

Fuel Leak Snowball...

Firstly apologies for it being almost 38 months since my last post. Nothing happened with 16606 for the majority of that time, what with the pandemic, and then as lockdowns started to lift we started a building project at home, so the D went for a little holiday to a storage facility on a farm in deepest Essex. I had her back in late August 2022, got it re-taxed and MOT'd with only a few outings around the block until very recently.

Trust the D to ruin a lovely day

It was a lovely sunny Sunday on 30th September when I decided to take 16606 for a short spin following some in and out TLC. After parking up on the drive something drew me to look under the car where I found a liquid dripping from the mid section of the car.

Upon closer inspection is stank of fuel.

Side-note: Readers of this blog will know I've been on a learning journey with this car and as each issue arises I try to learn what needs to be done and then dive in, admit defeat and speak nicely to members of the DeLorean Eurotec club for assistance (who are always beyond fantastic and generous with their time), or go down the professional garage route (this is the last resort, not because I don't want to pay professional prices but because they tend to have never encountered a DeLorean, let alone a car of some 40 years old, and are actually not often able to do a "professional" job).

After taking advice from members of the DeLorean Eurotec club I tentatively started the engine and drove the D back into the garage in the knowledge that I should check the fuel pump. This filled me with dread since this was an area of the car I had no previous experience of and the thought of messing with the pump, fuel tank and fuel in general required me to pluck up courage and just go for it.

The following documents the journey I went on that comprised getting the job done over two attempts and almost giving in and asking a new business created by a club member to do the job in-between.

I got the car back into the garage and emptied my mandatory travel tools and parts out in order to access the fuel tank.

Inside the "Frunk" of the DeLorean, under the mat is this sunken area where the original spare tyre resides. I took this out, the first time I'd touched it since getting the car back following restoration in 2016. Once set aside I undid the screws to the access panel as seen above. This would expose the fuel tank and associated hoses and equipment.

For reference the photo above shows, beneath the access panel, the fuel feed and return hoses coming from the fuel pump seal that covers the pump boot (that houses the pump). The boot is set into the tank, the black area beneath and surrounding the boot. On the left the fuel hoses attach to the pipes that flow eventually to the engine at the rear of the car.

With the access panel removed I could smell the over-powering odour of fuel (and odour but one of those strangely nice ones...). Mild panic set in when I saw the remnants of spilt fuel. I could see that the boot seal was a strange shape and not clamped down by the jubilee clip. I lifted the accessible part of the seal and could see the pump covered in fuel residue. Wondering how this had happened, and how it had apparently seeped over and out onto the top of the fuel tank, I decided to start the car to get the pump working. The following video is what I was confronted with.

The shakiness of the above video gives some idea of the "holy crap" moment I was experiencing. At this same time I had also noticed that the fuel feed and return lines were also deteriorating, showing signs of cracking all along the outside.

I had to figure out what to do next, so after switching the engine off, the fuel in the boot drained back into the tank and I stepped away from the offending car and did some research and messaging with the DeLorean Eurotec club over the course of the next week.

I watched some videos on YouTube to learn how the fuel pump assembly works and fits together so I could become familiar with this journey into the unknown. I specifically got benefit from the following two,

The first part of this video showing the extraction of the pump and it's assembly:

The following for learning how the fuel feed and return hoses attach.

I realised I needed to buy some parts so got on to DeLoreanGo.com and ordered,

SKU 106979 Fuel Hose - return and feed line

SKU 101391PU Polyurethane Fuel Pump Boot

SKU 106684PU Polyurethane Fuel Pump Cover Seal

SKU SP10830 W1 Steel Spring Clip for Fuel Pump Boot

SKU SP10356 Stainless Hose Clamp (lower fuel pump boot)

SKU 10349 Stainless Hose Clamp

Needless to say the turnaround at DeLoreanGo.com was amazingly fast and they arrived in a couple of days.

Next weekend

On 8th October I rolled the car out of the garage to start work. I was going to

Replace the feed and return fuel lines

Replace the fuel pump boot

Fit the W1 steel spring clip that was missing

Replace the fuel pump boot cover seal

I made sure I had noted what goes where. I took the following photos to remind me which hose was the feed and the return, and which colour electrical connects went to positive and negative terminals

The feed is the hose from the banjo to right of the two fuel pipes, and the return runs from the left.

The black wire is the negative whilst the red is the positive.

Whilst the boot was in situ, the pump was surprisingly moveable which I'm not sure it should have been. This made it difficult to pull the fuel hoses off and could have been a possible reason for why the boot was filling with fuel.

I undid the hose clamps to the fuel hoses and with plenty of tissue at the ready, in case of spills, I manipulated them until free at both ends.

So far so good. Next it was time to fit the new hoses, boot and seal and to reconnect the wires to the terminals. Easier said than done!

These were the parts purchased from DeLoreanGo.com. I had already transferred the return hose and support ring to the new boot.

Whilst removing the old hoses and attaching the new ones required a lot of manipulation and strength, I found this task to be less troublesome than the YouTube videos had implied.

The first connections were made to the pipes. It was as I was getting ready to attach them to the pump that I spotted how cracked the fuel pick up hose was.

No sooner had I noticed the state of this pick up hose, then as I picked it up to start attaching the fuel hoses it completely disintegrated and broke off.

With an almost full tank of fuel I had to find a cord to tie and secure the pick up hose to stop it falling back in.

It was clear that I would then need to get the pick up hose replaced, but that then also meant dealing with the baffle and associated parts, plus I had a virtually full tank of fuel. I realised this was as far as I was going to get for the day, and that I should pack away and spend some time thinking about how to tackle the new problem. I couldn't push the car back in to the garage due to the slope of my driveway, so I took a Stanley Knife to the pick up hose to make the end level and then reattached it to the pump. I then attempted to reconnect everything else to enable me to drive the car back in to the garage.

When trying to reconnect the wires to the terminals I could not get the rubber boots back over the connectors, they had turned from malleable to solid rubber with no give. This concerned me greatly since I was unsure what the consequence might be if fuel filled the boot once more when moving the car and these terminals were flooded. I took more advice from the Eurotec club and watched some more YouTube that some cars didn't even have rubber boots and also experienced similar flooding to me. So I risked it. Fortunately nothing happened and I was able to drive the car back into the garage.

Over the next day or two I searched more videos on YouTube and found the following one particularly useful to explain to me what it takes to replace the fuel pick up hose. It's a great tutorial.

Watching this also made me realise that my pump/tank had no return hose to return fuel back to the baffle area as well as no Baffle Seal. After watching I also felt confident that this was a job I could do if it were not for the almost full tank of fuel. My ability to do this job flip-flopped over the course of the next week. What was clear to me however was that I would not have this fixed before the following weekend, which was the DeLorean Eurotec October Meeting, 100 miles north in King's Lynn, Norfolk.

Having replayed the above video a few times I then generated a list of the parts I would need. I ordered the following from DeLoreanGo.com,

SKU 106287 Fuel Pickup Hose

SKU 106287A Stainless Fuel Pickup Hose Reinforcement Spring

SKU 106318 Pickup Pipe Baffle Seal

SKU 106286 Viton Lower Return Fuel Hose

SKU SP10573 Stainless Hose Clamp (fuel return pipe)

SKU SP110085 Fuel Pump Terminal Connectors

In true DeLoreanGo.com form these parts then arrived less than 24 hours after ordering with just the regular free shipping option selected.

DeLorean Eurotec October Meet Weekend

That next weekend I attended the Eurotec meet and garnered opinions about how to tackle the fuel pick up hose job. Opinions ranged from "dive in despite the full tank of fuel, it'll be fiddly, messy and your arms might sting somewhat" to "you must drain the tank before starting, then it will be fiddly". I also learnt that weekend how it seemed many owners were also experiencing fuel pump related issues. This is when I came to learn of one owner who had set up his own business for working on DeLorean's. I tentatively arranged for him to come and do mine next time he was in the area, which would have been a few weeks later, however during the journey home I changed my mind.

Close to home I decided to stop to charge my daily driver at Tesla Tottenham. Whilst charging I grabbed myself a tea and biscuits at the showroom. I sat in the lounge and started googling options for pumping out fuel from tanks. It was then I found the following product from Euro Car Parts, and fortuitously there was a branch, open across the road.

I was a little unsure at first but the reviews convinced me, and at £8.99, it wouldn't be a huge loss if it turned out not to be appropriate.

I purchased said pump and over the course of the next week I managed to find sufficient fuel cans/containers for up to 50 litres.

The Weekend after that

Okay, so it's now this recent weekend, the kids are away at Scout camp, it's peaceful at home so now is the time to do this!

I decided to leave the car in the garage this time due to constant rain so there wouldn't be much room around the side of the car to work.

After preparing the area I proceeded to pump the fuel out from the tank. This turned out to be amazingly simple with the new pump, so much so that I almost forgot to film the process. The following shows almost the final fuel being pumped out. The pump can do about 22 litres per minute, which I reckon we achieved, however the clip below is a little slower as the final fuel is trickier to pick up, but it did the job.

In the end I calculated I had taken approximately 46 litres of fuel out of the tank.

Following the pumping out I had a peek into the tank with my phone camera.

Whilst getting ready for pumping out the fuel I of course had to remove the boot and pump. When doing this I could see that the current pick up hose had in fact disintegrated further, unattached to the pump, lying in the tank. I felt relief that I had not attempted to drive up to the previous weekends' DeLorean Eurotec meeting, since once the fuel level would have dropped below the bottom of the pump, it would not have been able to draw any more fuel and I would have been stranded.

The following piece of pick up hose is all that was left attached to the pump, surrounded by the hose clamp.

I also removed the electrical connections from the pump terminals which I would later trim to attach new connectors and boots. Those boots were rock solid!

I set the pump and boot assembly to one side and then began tackling removal of the baffle in order to fit the new pick up hose, seal and return line.

The only minor issue I faced in removing the baffle was removing the Fuel Tank Baffle Outer Retainer Spring, DGo SKU 108683. The YouTube video showed it being attached over the top of the baffle to the sides, however as can just be seen in the picture below, mine was attached through the perforations of the lower baffle assembly, which was very tricky to dislodge.

Once the baffle was removed the stud that the baffle and retaining springs attach to can be seen (near the fuel sender casing)

With all the components out of the tank I could take a closer look. Below you can see the failed fuel pick up hose complete with filter, the baffle with signs of disintegrated rubber settled on it, and the retaining springs.

I then reassembled the baffle with the new parts outside of the tank to ensure I knew how it all went together for when I would do it effectively blind inside.

As mentioned in the YouTube video I found I didn't have the clip to attached the end of the return hose to, so I used a tie to affix it to the baffle.

Since I couldn't make a video of me rummaging around inside the tank to fit all the components of the baffle assembly together, the photo below is a fast forward to the finished job.

Following the instructions in the YouTube video my only variation was that I did it from a standing position from the front passenger side wing, leaning over with just one hand in the tank. I expected to be really frustrated with this step but I think I got lucky. Everything slotted together nicely and the only minor difficulty encountered was attaching the nut on top of the washer and retainer springs to lock down the baffle. I found the arm of the baffle had an arch in it so I found a metal rod to push down on it, between the springs. Once flat the nut went on easily.

Relieved at the in-tank baffle success I now needed to replace the boots and connectors to the pump wiring.

Below shows the current state of the wires. The picture doesn't relay how solid the boots had become. These can't be replaced without removing the connectors, but even by my standards this is an simple job.

Below you can see the replaced wires with the new boots and connectors.

Now for re-connecting the fuel pump assembly and fitting it back into the tank.

Lessons learnt from my first attempt a couple of weeks back is that the positioning of the pump in the boot relative to the electrical connections, the fuel feed and return hose barbs, and the eventual placement in the tank so that hoses do not hinder the re-fastening of the compartment cover panel is very important. It would be a real pain to have to undo it all if you cannot fit the panel after all the hard work. Believe me I found out the hard way!

I'm not saying the following is the "correct" positioning, but it's what worked for me.

I think the indentations in the pump casing on opposite sides is designed to allow the return pipe to sit nicely in between, however I could not get the hoses to fit sufficiently such that the boot seal then can close nicely over the boot. So the above photo shows how I ended up positioning the pump and return pipe.

Below you can see a side on view that also shows the position of the return pick outside of the boot.

I then attached the pick up hose to the pump and the return hose to the pipe.

I inserted the boot into the tank and attached the electrical connections and the feed and return hoses.

I then completed this part of the job by sliding down the seal and after the below photo was taken, tightened the hose clamp.

As per the lesson learned, mentioned just above, I had to slightly twist the boot clockwise a little to position the hoses more pointing backwards so the compartment cover could be screwed back in.

Before closing the compartment I wanted to check to see if my low fuel indicator light worked. By my reckoning, with no fuel in the tank I should be able to turn ignition to position two and see the light illuminated in the binnacle.

Either my theory was wrong or my low fuel light wasn't working, as I had long suspected. I next put back a couple of litres of fuel and tried again also fully starting the car, no luck, then added up to five litres, repeated, and still nothing.

Finally I pumped all fuel back in to the tank.

and after starting the car for a final check, replaced the compartment cover.

Job done! Hopefully...

Upcoming jobs that I'll aim to document soon include fitting a fan override switch, and fitting new circuit breaker holder clips.

Stay tuned!

I’ve kind of always had to help out my dad with practical stuff around the house. Ever since I was old enough and strong enough to help, he’d call me over instead of my mum. And even as I got a little brother, he far more often relied on me.

It’s not even that either of us are super practical. My dad has taught himself a lot of stuff through the years, but none of it really comes easily to him. He’ll struggle through it, huff and puff, and it is always a goal to get it done as fast as possible.

It’s caused some rows between us now and again, when he’d pushed me past my boiling point of what I can and will tolerate. I’ll help with no (or only minor) complaints but I refuse to be shouted at in frustration. It’s gotten a whole lot better as I got older and better able to communicate clearly.

He respects that I don’t like being rushed through, just as I respect that he’d rather have annoying practical tasks around the house done as efficiently as possible. I’ll often act like his third hand. (It was always that “I don’t have three hands”), and try my best to predict what he needs.

He often think it’s obvious what the next step would be, but it really isn’t when it’s something you’re unfamiliar with. But he’s gotten a lot better with making himself describe exactly what kind of support and help he needs, and I like to think that I’ve also gotten better and predicting next steps.

Because that’s just the thing. I’ve learned a lot of little hacks and stuff just from being on the sidelines helping. I’m still not good at it, but I’ve got faith that I can figure out most things, if needed. And if I need help in my flat, my dad is just a call away.

Just yesterday I was crouched behind the shower cabin (a bit movable object) in the upstairs bathroom in the family house, putting dissolving powder down a drain and a hose into a pipe to try and unclog whatever was making the water run over. It is the most fun to be crouched in such a corner with gross water and cobwebs? Decidedly not but I almost didn’t bat an eye.

Because I’ve helped out like this before. It’s like the third or fourth time we’ve done this, and I always end up squished in there, carrying out instructions because I’m smaller. And it’s a pain free process now. And we did it! Shower drain unclogged!

I’ve helped put together sink pipes, assemble all type of furniture, rip up and tile the garden, attach cords for lamps, and much more. All things I considered chores but in a way he taught me how to do those things. I’m not sure I could do them that well on my own, but I have a frame of reference for it now. And I know if I should need the support in something, he’d be right there.

Finally feeling like I’m coming up for air after a, frankly, traumatic couple of months. Bought a house at the end of October (YIKES!!!) and then had to spend the settlement period stressing that we would regret it and that the house would be horrible and that none of our stuff would fit in it. Struggled to source a bunch of tradies to do some essential pre-moving in work (painting, floors, electrical) and then when we did book some in, worried that they would all get c*vid right before they had to start work and it would throw out our insanely packed schedule. Spent all of January worrying that *we* might get c*vid and had to basically do a risk assessment before making any sort of social plans. Had to deal with the World’s Worst Property Manager™ when moving out of our rental and trying to work around open for inspections and the prospect of not getting our bond back for whatever stupid fucking reasons property managers make up and also some real reasons (didn’t get the carpets steam cleaned!! left a broken key in a lock in the back door!!!). Decided to get a removalist to do the big stuff and do the small stuff ourselves in the middle of the shittiest humid heatwave Melbourne had had in decades. The bank took the money out of my account twice at settlement leaving me with -$50k and didn’t even really think it was a big deal?!? The cleaner that we booked through Airtasker to clean the house before we moved in did the worst job I’ve ever seen and we had to re-clean the entire house and we only paid her because we needed her to leave the house and never see her again. Spent SO MUCH MONEY in general I don’t know if my inner anti-capitalist will ever recover. Also had to change jobs in the middle of all of this against my will - my old role was a 12 month contract but I loved it and my team so much and didn’t want to leave and start something new.

On the plus side, the internet got connected without a single hassle (WHAT). We bought a dishwasher and it somehow fit the random space in the kitchen cabinetry perfectly. Actually, *all* of our stuff fit perfectly, even the messy awful things like CDs and DVDs are now neatly tucked away. The backyard has an original Hills Hoist and I never thought I could derive so much pleasure from watching the clothes spin gently around in the sun. Got all of our bond back in the end! Sarah and I barely had a cross word with each other despite feeling hot, dirty and stressed 24/7 for about 4 weeks and also having to assemble a number of pieces of flatpack furniture. Discovered after 8 years of owning my washing machine that it doesn’t need a special hose to connect to the hot tap and the machine heats the water itself so we can wash on a hot cycle! Rafa won the AO (still not over that)!!!! Found out that the reason the bathroom smelled so damp was because of a blocked sewer pipe that the greywater couldn’t go down so it was just running under the house (not good) but it only cost $300 for a plumber to fix and now the bathroom doesn’t smell!! Even the scary bits of the house that I thought I’d never be brave enough to go into (the roof storage space, the filthy outdoor garage) are now clean and accessible and useable. I’m feeling calm more often than not at the moment, for the first time in a loooooong time.

Long story short, hi!

How to Set Up a Hookah Step by Step

Shisha or hookah smoking has become a popular trend across the globe that people embark on to enjoy as a hobby. If you are just starting, or if you want to fine-tune your hookah setup routine, you will find a detailed guide below. In this article you will learn how to set up a hookah like no other so that you always get the best smoking session possible.

Understanding the Hookah Components

However, in order to proceed with the setup process, the user should acquaint himself with the features of a hookah. undefined

1.Base (Vase/Bowl): This is the lower part of the hookah, which is typically filled with water to cool the smoke.

2. Stem: A long metallic pipe which links the base to the bowl.

3. Bowl: The part of the pipe where the flavored tobacco for smoking is placed These are the terms and definitions that are associated with Hookah/Hookah/Shisha.

4. Hose: The long, light, flexible tube through which the smoke is drawn into the lungs.

5. Plate/Tray: It is placed below the bowl and is mainly for holding ash and other small particles.

6. Grommets: These are sealing to prevent any leakage and ensure a tight slip between two or more components.

7. Charcoal: Employed for heating the shisha and making smoke.

The initial step is to collect the Hookah: 

Step 1

So the first procedure is to get all the components of the Hookah which are necessary to assemble the Hookah. Start with the fact that the assembling process of the hookah is a step-by-step process where the different parts of the hookah are combined. Begin with the base and make sure it is free from dust and any moisture content. Place the stem into the base part in a way that it fits the base tightly. Make sure there are no air leaks by installing grommets where necessary. Fix the tray on the top of the stem where ash falling during the session is collected.

Step 2: Start to fill the base half of the vase with water.

Pour sufficient water into the base such that it should be up to 1- 2 inches below the stem. This water must be used in the right quantity—throwing too much will make it difficult to draw the smoke; too little, the smoke does not filter well. Some users recommended the use of ice or cold water to make the smoking experience even colder.

Step 3: Place the Bowl Filled with Shisha

Now it is time to prepare the shisha. First, you should gently open the shisha with your fingers without packing it too tightly. Too much packing may reduce airflow in the pipe and this may cause a harsh smoke. Pour tobacco mix into the bowl up to the brim but leave some room so that the foil can be placed without coming into contact with the tobacco.

Step 4: Prepare the Foil: In the fourth step, the foil is prepared by appropriate writing size and neatness according to the presentation topic and the audience.

Take a piece of aluminum foil, which should be big enough for the bowl. Coax the wrap around the bowl precisely and pull the fabric as tight as possible. Take a toothpick or a pin to prick holes throughout the foil and ensure that these holes are equally spaced. These are crucial in enabling the heat from the charcoal to get to the shisha as well as regulating the flow of air.

Step 5: There are different ways of heating the charcoal, but one of the most common ways is lighting it using a stoking rod.

Light the charcoal using a hookah charcoal burner or a portable stove whose flame is close to the charcoal. It is recommended that the coals be left to burn until they turn red before being placed on the foil. Proper hookah charcoal should be used at all times; ordinary charcoal emits poisonous smoke and spoils the quality of the shisha.

Step 6: The charcoal should be placed on the bowl.It helps that you ought to wear heat proof gloves or tongs for handling the hot charcoal, as well as positioning the hot charcoal gently on the foil-covered bowl. Place the coals at the periphery of the bowl but not in the center. This helps in providing an even heat and the shisha do not get burnt quick enough so that they are ready for the next customer.

Step 7 – Connect the Hose Place the hose into the hose port spot at the stem side of the aircraft. Make sure that it is well fixed in position using a grommet. It is quite common to see hookahs feature multiple hose ports; when buying single-hose hookah ensure that the other ports are correctly closed.

Step 8: Start Smoking

After you have your hookah set up, make a couple of slow and light pulls through the hose to get things moving. If this smoke is too intense, there is a tendency that you may need to shift your charcoal or look for air leaks. After everything is ready, all that is needed is to sit back, take a puff and relish the soothing, juicy taste of the smoke.

Hookah Price and Quality Aspects

When setting up a hookah, the quality of the accessories determines the whole session in terms of pleasure to be derived. A great thing to know is that if one wants to gain better flavoring and better smoke, investing in a good hookah is a great idea. The costs of these hookahs range from cheap simple ones to the complicated and expensive ones made from high quality materials.

Hookah price may differ greatly depending on the type of material used in the manufacture and the size of the hookah alongside the brand. Laymans suggest that beginners should not think of purchasing a high end hookah, and this is because between quality and price, there is always a hookah in the middle. For instance, as you grow in the industry, you can opt for models that pack more attractive features such as better filters, multiple hoses availability and sleek models.

Being mindful of the possibilities will help guide beginners and help veterans enjoy the best hookah experience.

1. Use Fresh Shisha: Shisha Schwartz explains that one should always make sure to use fresh shisha in order to get the best taste. Having stale or dry shisha have negative implications on one's smoking experience.

2. Clean Your Hookah Regularly: Each time you finish using hookah, make sure that you clean the hookah to avoid the accumulation of residues. This not only makes for a better flavor but also increases the lifespan of your hookahs.

3. Experiment with Flavors: Shisha comes in a variety of fluids which include fruits, mints and a variety of spices. If you are a hookah lover, you should try out new combinations since this will enhance your experience while using hookah.

4. Adjust Water Levels: In case it is too smoky or not smoky enough, adding or reducing the water in the base will help.

5. Try Different Charcoal: Big distinguishes between kinds of charcoal and decide on this or that kind that would be better to use in order not to spoil the taste of steam installing it for too long. Premium coconut charcoal is characterized by its long-lasting lasting burn and natural and clean flavor.

Conclusion :

Initially people might be overwhelmed by the process of arranging a hookah, yet, it is a routine that becomes an entertainment and a plus to the overall smoking procedure. With that guide in mind, you will be able to guarantee every one of your sessions to be efficient, delicious and devoid of all the possible problems. What is also very important a lot more may depend on how to pack the bowl and what type of coal you use for it.

Whether you are smoking alone or in the company of others, making sure to take some time and prepare

Thus simply learning how to set up a hookah properly makes all the difference. When set appropriately, you will derive maximum satisfaction from highly flavored clouds that improve relaxation and social interactions.

At Moksha Bongs we know how much an aspect like quality can count while using hookah. That’s why we give our customers a choice of hookahs, shisha tobaccos, and accessories of different types and prices.
