Let's look at what makes this rig's design special.
A recycler rig creates a continuous loop for water and vapor. As you draw, vapor is pulled from the main chamber up through external tubes and back into the water. This longer journey cools the vapor more than a standard rig, resulting in an incredibly smooth hit that’s less harsh. It also prevents water from splashing into your mouth.
Wig wag is a glassblowing technique that involves twisting colored glass rods to create complex, symmetrical patterns. The multi-colored wig wag accents on this rig give it a vibrant look, making each piece a work of art. This detail shows a high level of craftsmanship and adds visual depth to the piece.
At 8.2 inches, this rig is a great size for both performance and portability. It's small enough to be a comfortable daily driver on your desk but large enough to support an effective recycler system. While its glass construction requires care during travel, its compact size is easier to pack in a padded case than rigs over 10 inches tall. It is an excellent choice for home use and carefully planned trips.

Cleaning a recycler takes extra care to ensure all pathways are clear. For a deep clean, fill the rig with a solution of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt. Plug the openings and shake it gently, letting the mixture flow through all the tubes. For tough residue, let it soak for 30 minutes. Finally, rinse thoroughly with warm water until all the alcohol and debris are gone.
A consistent routine before and after your session will keep your rig working like new.
Cleaning your rig after each use prevents buildup and keeps your flavor pure. While the banger is still warm (but not hot), use a cotton swab to wipe out any residue. Empty the used water and give the rig a quick rinse. This simple process takes less than a minute and makes deep cleans much easier and less frequent.
