Where do you get your glassware?

Hello everyone
This is Jimmy again. I was wondering where do you guys get glassware for short path distillation?
I try to buy some spare part, just in case. And I take a look at eBay. The price are all over the place. I can't find a good vendor that i can trust. Even those glassware are not expense, i don't want to wait for two week for a part that is either broken or leak.
Open to any suggestion.

I've ordered twice from laboy out of China with zero problems.Most of the stuff I see on ebay is coming from China anyways,might as well buy from the source.American glass is nice,but way more money than I'm willing to spend.

Dang,you're set up.Nice equipmentl,looks great.That chiller/heater is tits.My chiller consists of a mini fridge with a small tote filled with h20,salt and a shitload of ice lolz:bigjoint:

So if I may simplify this for myself,you're changing flasks once different temps are reached?

You need a heater for spd, not a chiller. 70c+ water temp.

Should see my 5l rotovap


You switch the recieving flasks after certain fractions are done. 1st glass gets all the residual solvent, h2o, Terps, and garbage. Let the mains start to run so it cleans all the nasties from the head and cow before switching to your mains flask (center). You ONLY want the mains, good distillate at this time. When it's time to switch flasks and collect tails is a bit tricky to get the timing down. Mantle temp plays a key role in what fractions your at.

So 1st flask is garbage. DO NOT SPILL THIS ON YOUR CLOTHING OR BODY! It's like super perfume, x100. And will take days to wear off.
2nd flask is mains. No Terps, just high quality thc.
3rd flask is the tails. Lower quality distillate, always save tails, when you have enough to make a run, spd it. It should be worth it.
