im either looking for creative ideas, blueprints, links to places where I can view, or names I can research to find a good but cheap vaporizer.
do you think one could pick up one of those methpipe vapes that has a crimp and fits in a bong for the purpose of hash? how easy are they to find? do they have a specific name?

I got one before Op. Pipe Dreams under the name of 'oil-pipe', I guess they're still around but more difficult to find. Large city head-shops usually still carry them, sometimes you need to ask though.

i found awesome plans for one that i want to build, but have not tried yet. Hell if i can remember the link, but i saved the instructions. I in no way claim this as my own work/creation.
----Homemade Vaporizer----- http://img223.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pic1rf8.jpg You'll need some sort of container for the main body. In this example, a balloon glass with a large cork-lid (a dank tank as you will) will be used, but anything will do, really. Avoid plastic however because it might melt (stating the obvious here, really, aren't I?) Drill two holes into the cork, one for the chillum and one for the tube to inhale in the end (we'll come to both of those later). If you make a hole too large, do NOT attempt to glue bits of cork back on... the glues will probably either start burning or at least give of some nasty fumes. The same applies to rubber. the best option is probably to get some more cork and stick it in together with the tubes and hope it'll stay in place. You can also try and use some wire to keep it where it is meant to be.
http://img85.imageshack.us/my.php?image=...age=pic3my3.jpg The chillum and the connection for the tube are best made out of copper, but obviously steel will do the job as well (though it is more expensive, and has no particular advantage). You can buy these pipes in your local hard ware shop, where it'll probably be in the plumbing section. If you can't find it, don't be afraid to ask; they are everyday items so they won't ask stupid questions. The evaporation chamber is where you will have to put your weed in the end; it should be at least 100mm long, but not more than 150mm. The measurements given in the picture above are guidelines, so don't despair if your local hardware shop only sells pipes measured in inches or something like that (N.B.: 1 inch = 25.7mm).

The tube (which will be used to inhale the vaporized THC in the end should be about 2m (6'10") long to allow you to sit back and relax a bit, rather than having to be glued to the vaporizer at all times. It is made of PVC, 13mm thick, has a wall width of 2mm and should be available from anywhere where they sell fish tanks. If you don't like the plastic like taste of it, though, ask for one that is suitable for foodstuffs. The middle picture shows what your vaporizer should look like by now, and on the one on the right shows the most important part of your vaporizer, the thing which makes it tick, namely the hot air fan. The one used in this example is a Steinel HL 1400S with a converter piece to 20mm. If they don't have this particular one near where you live, ask for another model. Just in case you are being asked what you need it for, here are a two reasons why: pre-heating a barbecue (probably the best option) and discoloring furniture. Make sure the temperature is either adjustable or does not exceed 220*C or 410*C, and is above 395*F (whatever the corresponding temperature in *C is), otherwise it might get too hot and you'll burn your stuff after all, defeating the purpose of a vaporizer, or will be too cold making it useless. Make sure you can get a suitable converter piece for your hot air fan, so it will fit onto your vaporizer

Your final vaporizer should now look something like this. To use, simply either put some very loosely packed weed into the evaporation chamber, or, if you want to use hash, crumble it into really small pieces (as in tiny), and either put it in directly, or spread it over some iron wool, which you then put into evaporation chamber. This will keep it spread apart, since it otherwise tends to stick and eventually block the pipe. I recommend that you preheat the iron wool once, to make sure that any anti-rust coating it might have is gone. And again stating the obvious: Make sure you don’t touch the evaporation chamber during or directly after use (unless you are wearing asbestos gloves), because it will be very hot; after use leave it for at least an hour or two. You can clean it just like you would a bong, though you'll probably really only need to clean the evaporation chamber.
---------------------------------- there, thats the best plans i have ever found online...and i wish i knew who to give credit to. If i do, ill post the link to his website later on.
