Guest DJ Friday at Magic-Flight


 

Magic-Flight, live from the Launch Pad every Friday.

Get ready for the weekend with Magic-Flight’s DJ Friday – a stream of imaginative world, and electronic music broadcasted LIVE from Magic-Flight HQ.  The stream begins at 1 PM and goes until approximately 4:20 PM every Friday.

Whether you’re into House, World music, Drum-and-Bass, Glitch, Future, Techno, Hip-Hop or Reggae, you can be certain that DJ Friday will have a little something for you. All of our live sets feature a live chat with our guest DJ and fellow Magic-Flight fans and employees. Come hang out with us and get a taste of what it’s like to be a member of the Flight Crew!

DJ Friday began nearly a year ago as a company-wide celebration of the week’s hard work coming to an end and as a showcase of the talented DJs and producers that work within our company and community. We constructed a DJ booth in the corner of our wood shop (right) and have been striving to continually improve and evolve the program ever since. We’ve got the next several months booked with DJ’s from many genres of music and all walks of life, check out all of our upcoming acts on our Mixlr page.

To join the crowd and the chat, head over to http://mixlr.com/magicflight.  For those of you with an iPhone, you can download the Mixlr iPhone app and stream DJ Friday on the go. The app gives you a push notification whenever we go live so you never have to miss out on the fun!

We hope to see you on Friday!

Introducing The Water Pipe Whip

The Water Pipe Whip (WPW) is a new and exciting way to connect your Magic-Flight Launch Box to your favorite water pipe. Using your Launch Box with water filtration will cool the vapor and allow for smoother, larger draws. We are very pleased with the evolution of this design as it allows for more flexibility and freedom in getting copious amounts of tasty vapor with your Launch Box.

The Water Pipe Whip comes in three wood styles: Maple, Cherry and Walnut. The components are hand crafted and fit together snugly without the use of any adhesives. This makes it possible to disassemble the WPW for cleaning when necessary.

The Water Pipe Whip connects to a 14mm glass downstem through a custom whip attachment. Additionally a fitter is available through our website for the larger 18mm size downstems. Please note that all Water Pipe Whips come with a small tube of non toxic silicon gel.  Use of this gel prevents the glass end of the WPW from getting stuck inside the glass downstem of your water pipe and will insure a longer life for your product.

The Water Pipe Whip comes with our comprehensive Lifetime Functional Warranty. If anything should happen to the product during use, even through user error, we will replace it and ensure that you receive the highest level of customer care that we can offer.

Introducing The Magic-Flight Finishing Grinder

We have just released The Magic-Flight Finishing Grinder which is special purpose built specifically for the Launch Box. The grinder will come in your choice of Maple, Cherry or Walnut woods. It fits directly over the bowl and grinds dry herbals to a fine powder-like consistency for optimum high performance draws. The grind level rivals that of a coffee grinder but has many more advantages: 1) its small size — very portable, 2) stealth (no noise when in use), and 3) the ability to grind one LB loading at a time (or less!) with no loss.

Our new grinder creates the type of micro-fine grind ideal for use in the Launch Box. It’s intuitive design allows it to perch on top of the bowl of the Box and deposit the ground herbal material directly into your trench for the perfect session each and every time.  Instead of using a shredding technique like the Nano Grinder or other metal grinders, with The Finishing Grinder, the herbal material is pushed against the grinding surface and grated into your trench, resulting in an extremely fine grind, ideal for the MFLB.

In other respects, our new grinder is a bit like our Nano Grinder — very small, compact and similar in function, except that instead of being a shredder, its internal action is more like a grater. By producing a grind particulate that is 2X to 4X as fine, in diameter, there is an increase of at least 10X the surface area, which produces a dramatic difference in the quality and volume of each vapor draw. Launch Box Connoisseurs will definitely appreciate the increased efficiency, quality, and variety of vapor effects that this new tool unlocks in the Box!

The term “finishing” in the grinder’s name stems from a common woodworking term. Finishing is essentially the last set of steps that are taken to prepare a wood for use.  The Finishing Grinder received its name because it offers the highest refinement and the most perfect portable grind currently possible for the Launch Box.

The Nano Grinder is the end of the road for grind fineness from a portable metal grinder, there are no more improvements we can make for it to produce a finer grind. The Finishing Grinder picks up where the Nano Grinder leaves off, for the absolutely best portable grind for your Launch Box.

It is important to note that pre-grinding before loading The Finishing Grinder is only necessary for moist material.  If your material is dry, you can simply break it up by hand and use it directly with The Finishing Grinder. It is imperative that dry material is used in The Finishing Grinder or else buildup and jamming will occur very quickly.  If this buildup does occur, using a Q-tip dipped in 99% Isopropyl Alcohol and scrubbing the grinding surface will quickly remove it.

As with all of our flagship products, The Finishing Grinder carries a Lifetime Warranty.  It comes packaged in a stylish felt-lined tin for ease of transport and storage.
