Dabbers should be glass or titanium same goes for your nail either quartz or titanium. Don't trust smoke shop guys to tell you what its made of trust a magnet ti won't stick

i dont think the swing arm itself is titanium. Only the plate.

I'm having trouble understanding exactly what broke and how. Do you have a skillet style rig? Can you post a picture?

Just go to your local welding shop and pick up some stainless steel filler rod

The tip burnt off where it holds the titanium plate. You can see it only holds the plate by a tiny bit of wire and its too close to the dome when i flip it over. I rigged it up so that it will work but i want to replace the entire metal swing arm. I ordered some filler rod from amazon. Hope its the same thickness...

Ohhhhh! Sorry I totally get what you're saying. Maybe its a sign to switch to a nail and dome set up or even a domeless nail!

I bought a dome with nail setup and i dont like it. I use the same amount of oil and the hits seem smaller. I dont get the big clouds of smoke i get with the titanium plate. I have nooo idea why either..
