The Kerby Yellow Bot Head is a handcrafted American dab rig shaped like a robot head, made for collectors and daily dabbers who want their setup to double as a conversation piece. Built from thick borosilicate glass by stateside artists, this heady rig delivers smooth, diffused hits while looking absolutely wild on your coffee table. If you're tired of generic production glass and want something that actually says something about your taste, this is the kind of piece that anchors a collection.
Why this rig earns its spot
- Actual art, not just glass — the sculpted yellow robot head design turns your dab station into something worth showing off when friends come through.
- Smoother pulls, better flavor — internal percolation diffuses each hit so you're tasting terpenes instead of harsh vapor.
- American glass, American hands — small-batch craftsmanship from USA artists means quality control that mass production can't touch.
- Built thick for real use — this isn't a display-only piece; the borosilicate can handle being your actual daily driver.
- That yellow pops — bold color that stands out whether it's next to other rigs or sitting solo on a shelf.
- Function matches the flex — pretty glass that doesn't hit right is just a paperweight; this one actually rips.
Made for
This rig is for the dabber who'd rather have one centerpiece than five forgettable pieces. You probably already have a solid dab mat and care about how your station looks as a whole. Maybe you've been through the phase of buying cheap rigs and breaking them, and now you want something that feels like an investment. The Kerby Yellow Bot Head is for people who get genuinely excited about watching function from different angles and explaining to guests why their rig has a face.
How to use it
Fill through the mouthpiece or joint until you see comfortable bubble stacking when you pull — enough water to diffuse, not so much that it splashes up into the neck. Finding that sweet spot takes about thirty seconds of test pulls.
Drop in your preferred banger or nail (not included with this rig, which lets you run whatever setup you already love). Set the whole thing on a stable, flat surface. The bot head shape gives you a clear view of the function from multiple angles, so you can actually watch it work while you're using it.
Between sessions, dump the water and give it a quick rinse. For deeper cleaning, let everything cool completely, remove your banger, and pour isopropyl alcohol through the piece. Swirl it around, let it sit if things are gunky, then rinse thoroughly with clean water and air dry. Staying on top of light maintenance keeps the glass clear and your hits tasting right — way easier than waiting until it's fully reclaimed and annoying to deal with.

Compatibility notes
The Kerby Yellow Bot Head runs a standard joint setup — check your product listing for exact joint size and gender so you can match your existing hardware or grab something new. It pairs naturally with a quality quartz banger and directional carb cap for full flavor and airflow control. The rig works with whatever concentrate hardware you're already running, so you're not locked into any particular ecosystem.
One honest note: this is glass, not silicone. It's built thick and meant for real use, but if you're someone who travels a lot or tends to knock things over, you might keep a backup piece from the silicone rig collection for on-the-go and save this one for home sessions.
What American-made actually means here
There's a tangible difference between mass-produced import glass and something that came out of a small American studio. You feel it in the weight, see it in the details of the bot head sculpting, and notice it in how the piece actually functions. This isn't about patriotism for its own sake — it's about an artist who cared enough to make each piece work right, not just pass QC on a production line.
The kind of person who buys this rig usually treats their whole station like a curated setup. That might mean proper storage for concentrates in heavy-bottom glass jars, a clean dab mat underneath, and tools that match the vibe. The Bot Head becomes the anchor that everything else orbits around.
FAQ
- Does it come with a banger or nail?
No, the rig ships without a nail or banger. This is actually a feature, not a shortcut — it lets you run whatever setup you prefer instead of being stuck with included hardware that might not match your style. Grab your favorite quartz banger and carb cap and you're ready.
- What's the joint size?
The specific joint size and gender will be listed in the product details at checkout. It's built as a standard dab rig, so it'll work with typical concentrate hardware. If you're uncertain, measure what you have or reach out before ordering.
- Can I actually use this daily, or is it just for looking at?
It's a fully functional daily driver. The percolation works, the glass is thick enough for regular use, and the form factor is practical. That said, a lot of owners treat it as their "special occasion" piece because it's nice enough to show off. Use it however makes you happy.
- How do I clean the bot head design without messing it up?
Same as any quality glass rig. Let it cool, dump the water, rinse with isopropyl alcohol, and follow with clean water. The sculpted design doesn't trap residue any worse than standard rigs — just make sure you're rinsing thoroughly and letting it dry completely. Don't use anything abrasive on the outside.
- Is this beginner-friendly?
The function itself is straightforward — no complicated multi-chamber setup to figure out. But at this price point, it's usually picked up by people who already know they love dabbing and want to invest in something serious. If you're brand new, you can absolutely use it, just treat it with respect and you'll be fine.
- How does the hit compare to a recycler or more complex rig?
The Kerby Yellow Bot Head focuses on smooth diffusion without the complexity of a full recycler system. You get good flavor preservation and comfortable hits. It's not trying to be a scientific-style piece — the appeal is the combination of solid function with heady art. If you want maximum filtration, that's a different rig; if you want something that hits well and looks incredible, this is the lane.
- What else do I need to complete my setup?
At minimum: a compatible banger, a carb cap for airflow control, and a dab tool for handling concentrates. A good dab mat underneath keeps everything stable and your surfaces clean. For storage, proper containers keep your extracts fresh between sessions.
