Why 55 degree? The 55° Gavel is a response to
a cross-brand issue that arises from true 45° nails. By adding an
additional 10° to the angle, we change the direction of the angular
force being applied on the outside wall of the bucket by dabbers and
cotton swabs, making it much less likely to slip out during operation
and cleaning. Previously the only benefit in having a true 45° was if
the joint you are going to be matching with is also a true 45°,
resulting in a flat level bucket. It has been our experience that the
majority of joints we are connecting to are not true 45° angles, so we
see the additional 10° being added as non problematic in that regard.
Introducing the Gavel, an opaque bottom quartz banger style
nail from Highly Educated. For fans of both the banger style and the
flavor that our opaque material offers. This nail features a 4mm thick
layer of our 99.99% pure SiO2 opaque quartz on bottom with 2.5mm thick
clear fused quartz walls and a 25mm diameter bucket. The opaque floor
heats up much faster than traditional clear fused quartz, but can still
hold heat well exhibiting wait times in excess of 80 seconds. The logo
has been laser engraved into the joint keeping the branding subtle, but
permanent. The chamfered edges on the top are made to accommodate a
better fit for most bubble caps. The opaque surface is slightly textured
which assists in the formation of nucleation sites at exceeding lower
temperatures. The material science, and surface science behind the Gavel
are quickly making it an industry favorite.
