Bong rip potency

[ermitonto]

I just made a 5-minute bong out of a 20 oz Dr Pepper bottle, an old metal bowl/stem made especially for bong creation, a pair of scissors and scotch tape. It's not airtight but I'm kind of in a hurry because I have to leave soon. However, I noticed this bong, which is smaller than most bongs I make (usually with a 1- or 2-liter bottle) gives more potent hits than usual. While pondering this, I decided it's because with a bong, you have to inhale all the air inside the chamber before you can start inhaling the smoke. With a larger chamber, this means you have to inhale more air before you get to the good stuff. With a larger bong, you can get around this by taking whole lungful of air to fill up the chamber with smoke, exhale, and then you inhale what's in the chamber all at once. Maybe it's all in the technique or the design, I don't know, but this bong kicks ass for one so hastily put together.

I am really really baked. Oh shit, I have to go to class.

If it with one of them pull-out carbs? I make killer bongs like that. All i use is the bongstem/piece, bottle, and a cig for makin the hole. Works great and is air tight.

No, the bowl is fused to the stem so I had to make a carb hole with the scissors. I'm going to build another one though, because I have another bowl with a short stem that fits snugly into a pen tube, and I can just pop it out to clear the chamber.
