My girl was sort of pissed when I brought it back to our booth. "You and your pieces that take 2 people to light". It doesn't. It actually hits pretty smooth as long as you don't try yourself. The guy who made it hooked me up with his glass on glass downstem supplier. I'm paying $4 for old style slider system downstems and I get ground glass ones from this supplier $1.80 apiece. It already paid for itself.
