The 10" Kerby/Bowman Collab Mech Burd #2 Rig is a made-in-the-USA heady glass showpiece built for collectors who actually put fire to their art. Standing at 10 inches (254mm) with a 14mm male, 45° joint, it blends wild sci‑fi sculpture with dialed‑in function so you get both gallery vibes and real-world performance every time you pull it off the shelf.
Full CFL Serum with Haterade accents means this rig doesn’t just sit there—it shifts from champagne to rosy tones as your lighting changes, turning every sesh into a moving light show.
Why You’ll Love This Rig
- True centerpiece energy — The Mech Burd silhouette and layered colorwork are built to live on the top shelf, not in the cabinet.
- Color that actually moves — CFL Serum glass shifts from champagne to soft rose depending on your light source, so the rig feels different at night than it does in the sun.
- Collector-level collab — Joint work from Kerby and Bowman means you’re getting a one-off piece with its own personality, not something that looks like every other rig online.
- Ready for serious dabs — 14mm male, 45° joint is made for modern bangers and accessories, so it’s not just pretty—it’s built to be used.
- Balanced and comfortable — Around 10 inches (254mm) is that sweet spot: big enough for function and flavor, small enough to handle comfortably on the couch or at the desk.
- Heady flex without compromise — You’re getting sculpture-level detail while still keeping a layout that’s actually cleanable and sesh-friendly.
Best For
This rig is made for serious heady glass people—the ones who know artists by name and can spot CFL work from across the room. It’s ideal if you already have a daily driver and want the piece you pull out when friends are over, or when you’re staging a new drop on the table next to your favorite concentrate jars.
If you’re the type who takes time dialing in your setup, photographing your rigs, or rearranging shelves just to show off the right angles, Mech Burd #2 will fit right into that ritual.
The Artists & The Build
Kerby and Bowman don’t really do “simple.” This collab leans into that mechanical bird aesthetic—layered forms, sculpted lines, and clean welds that look like they’re in motion even when the rig’s just sitting there. It’s the kind of piece you keep finding new details on months later.
The full CFL Serum body is where the magic really lives. Under cooler indoor light it leans champagne and soft gold, then under different sources or sunlight that same glass wakes up with rosy, pinkish tones. The Haterade accents cut through all that warmth with sharp, electric hits of color, so the whole piece reads like a stylized mech out of a future cartoon.
How to Use It
Think of this like any other high-end 14mm rig—just with way better aesthetics. Pair it with your favorite 14mm female banger, directional cap, and a comfortable torch or e-rig setup, then let the shape and volume of the piece handle the rest. The 45° joint makes it really natural to use at a coffee table height without wrestling your angle.
Set it down on a quality dab mat or pad when you’re in use mode, so any stray drips or reclaim hit silicone instead of your shelves or desk.
Cleaning is about respect with heady pieces. Let everything cool off, then rinse and gently swish; for deeper cleans you can soak with isopropyl alcohol, rinse with clean water, and dry fully before putting it back under the lights. Treat it like the functional sculpture it is and it’ll stay in rotation for years.

Fit & Compatibility
With a 14mm male, 45° joint, this rig is built to play nice with standard 14mm female bangers, dropdowns, and reclaim catchers. That 45° cut is especially friendly for people who like to run slightly larger nail setups without feeling crowded by the can.
If you’re running a full setup—directional carb cap, pearls, etc.—this rig gives them room to shine. Pair it with your favorite cap or explore new airflow options in our selection of carb caps to really fine-tune your function.
Care Tips
Heady glass deserves a little routine. Try to empty water between seshes or at least daily if it’s staying on display, so you don’t get that stale line inside the can. Let the banger and joint cool fully before you move or clean anything.
For deeper cleaning, a simple soak in isopropyl alcohol followed by a rinse and dry is usually all you need. Avoid harsh tools or scrubbing anything near the artwork—let the alcohol do the work so you don’t risk scratches or micro-abrasions on those color sections. When it’s not in use, a padded shelf next to your other premium smoke shop pieces is the safest home base.
FAQ
- Will this rig fit my current banger setup?
The Mech Burd #2 has a 14mm male, 45° joint, so it fits any standard 14mm female banger or nail. If your current pieces are 14mm female, you’re set—just drop one in and you’re ready. - Is this meant to be used or just displayed?
Both. It’s absolutely a collector-level piece, but it’s also fully functional heady glass. Many people use rigs like this as their “special occasion” or weekend setup and keep a different daily driver in rotation alongside more rugged silicone rigs for travel and rougher use. - How hard is it to keep clean without damaging the artwork?
As long as you stick to isopropyl alcohol, gentle rinsing, and patience, it’s straightforward. Let everything cool, soak if needed, rinse with clean water, and air dry. Avoid abrasive brushes or anything that could scratch the glass. - What makes CFL Serum special compared to regular glass colors?
CFL Serum reacts to certain light wavelengths, so it shifts in tone depending on the light in your space. You’ll notice more champagne or golden vibes in some lighting, and softer rose tones in others, which keeps the rig feeling “alive” on the shelf. It’s a favorite among heady collectors who like pieces that change throughout the day. - Is this rig good as a first “nice” piece?
If you’re jumping straight into high-end heady glass, this is one of those forever pieces you build a collection around. Just know you’re in serious territory here—many people start with more affordable setups, then upgrade to something like this once they’ve dialed in their preferences and storage game with proper storage and packaging for their concentrates. - Does it come with any accessories?
The listing is for the rig itself. You’ll need to supply your own 14mm female banger, cap, and tools. If you’re curating a full heady setup around it, you can match it with unique tools from our rotating accessories collections to keep the whole station on theme. - What’s the advantage of the 10" height?
About 10 inches (254mm) is a great balance: enough internal volume for smooth, flavorful pulls and visible function, but not so tall that it feels awkward to handle or harder to store. It’s a comfortable size for both solo seshes and passing around the room without feeling like you’re juggling a sculpture.
