It works and it's fabulously ghetto!
It could have been less brown, but I chose to turn up the heat. No combustion. Vapor isn't hot enough to be uncomfortable as long as you don't draw too long and the pyrex funnel doesn't get very hot. The entire hot plate gets hot, though, so you could burn yourself mildly, maybe. The hot plate is bigger than I'd like it to be, but they probably aren't that common anymore, so there isn't a lot of choice. It also takes a while to cool down, so it'll keep producing vapor. Thinking of making a third lung to attach to it. Pretty easy to do.

This is the hot plate: http://www.amazon.com/Brentwood-Appliances-TS-337-Single-Burner/dp/B0042W5N04/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1382761321&sr=8-2&keywords=Hot+Plate
The funnel is a Pyrex 60 degree long stem funnel I bought used on eBay. About $25 for everything.
I'm pretty satisfied with the way my project turned out.

It also has a cast iron top. No teflon, I think.
