That is a pretty sweet design.
The reason I'm making a machine though is for extreme portability. do you load the spice onto the "top" or "bottom" of the steel wool. It just worries me that spice will drip out when heating from below if loaded on the "bottom" .. that is to say the side to which you apply heat when smoking.
Are these fears unfounded? once you melt the spice into the mesh it just clings there?

well it is copper scrubber. steel wool give off a weird taste/smell as do steel scrubbers. I get like 40 "machine balls" worth of copper scrubbers for a dollar at the dollar store. You can burn it with a lighter or on the stove to do a whole scrubber at a time.
Anyway I have not had any problems with spice dripping though I use evaporated jimjam DMT-acetate. I know that when I used crystals I didn't have any issues with it either once I melted them into the copper. you want to face the side with the melted DMT towards the flame but if it is on the other side it should still vaporize if it is vertical like my bubbler. If the copper is sticking horizontal then not all the DMT will vaporize, only the DMT on the side sticking out for the flame.

it is really simple and nothing to be worried about. The first "machine" I made I remember being confusing. I putt the lid on the bottle covering the steel scrubber then torching the lid, which didn't work. Once I re-read the description and realized the flame heats the scrubber directly I layed on the couch planning for a pleasant 2g of mushrooms-like buzz like I got half a dozen times from a light bulb vaporizer and 1 1/2 tokes later I was like "HOLY FUCK I'M IN ANOTHER WORLD!"
DMT + copper scrubber + flame = SUPER reliable vaporization.

Yea, not trying to compare it with a GVG, but I am hard pressed to find a better deal than the machine. 6 bucks and you have everything you need.

Sorry if I missed something. How does one melt the dmt onto the copper mesh ball? GVG seems the fav around here, but too expensive for me. I have fashioned a machine using Q's method, with a hotsauce bottle, but am a little confused how to use it. I may make a bubbler like Q's next if it's better.
