First Homemade Bong

[CanaBliss]

Well there wasn't much to this other than a drill and hot glue. I just hot glued my pipe into it and if it ever gets clogged I can still just unscrew the bowl and clean it.

I do have a question though and it's where should I put the carb or should I even have one at all??? If so, how big, just a drill hole?

Heres the pics (no the hot glue doesnt look as messy in real life)

thats an enourmous bong but good job and ya id recommend a carb, make it a couple inches above where youd regularly make the water line.

[CanaBliss]

I know it looks huge in the picture but it's actually only 1 foot 4 inches. How big does the carb need to be? Just a little drill hole?

[Climbing High]

make it as big as possible, while still being easily covered by your thumb. that way you clear it faster and easier.

[ermitonto]

I find that a small hole, maybe .5 cm to 1 cm in diameter works well.

A .25" shotgun should be plenty adequate... BTW, how big is that top flaring? Looks like it could be hard to seal good for a hit?

But if I'm wrong and it hits great, then that is a sweet looking pipe; might considering sanding the hot glue lightly and painting it to match (or compliment) the color of the bong.

I kinda dont like the top.

And any kind of glue around the bowl is going to melt when it gets hot and you might get a headache from the fumes.

[CanaBliss]

The top flare is about 3 inches wide. My mouth fits perfectly in it. Yeah I was wondering about that glue melting but I guess I won't smoke as fast. If it melted it'd harden right away.

i woulda made it have a slide...not a carb but a carb will work just fine

[LETS GET HIGH]

you might try cutti ng the top of where it flares out and id make the carb at a decent little hole to start with then just make it a lil bigger until its perfect

[Delta9]

Okay. The top just looked big, but thats cool. Glue has never worked very well for any bong I've ever made.

thats one sweeeeeeeeeet looking bong there dude...i built a bong out of a coke bottle, a pen tube thingy, and my moms glass one-hitter...its so awesome...i will show pics as soon as i remember to bring them over to my sisters house so i can put them up on here

[LETS GET HIGH]

where did you get the base(blue thing) for that?

[Phresher than it Got]

your not gonna be able to put much water in there, the pipe is not at enough of an angle, and goddamn that bowl is big

[CanaBliss]

I found it at my friends house, it was a flower vase or something. The bowl is a nice size yes and ur right the angle is too low but it still works.

[ermitonto]

Well you could just fill it higher and tilt the bong back, but you would have to keep it tilted back to avoid bongwater coming out the bowl.

[Chongzbongz]

attach the bowl to the top of that flashlight

[CanaBliss]

Attaching it at the front would wet it faster.
