hey everyone, my glass bubbler has taken critical damage and the mouth piece on it snapped off, would it be A: possible to heat up each end of the pieces and fuse them back together B: buy a rod of pyrex and attempt to melt a line of glass around the break to connect it all back or C: please help with what to do.

Thank you very much

BObb.

glass melts anywhere from 500 °C (900 °F)- 1650°C (3180 °F) so you'll need a really powerful torch to fuse them together.

is the mouthpiece (where it is broken0 part of the main body of the bong? or is it a seperate piece, sealed with a rubber o-ring? cause it'll be pretty hard to repair a break on the main body of the bong...you'll never be able to melt the glass back together without shattering the bong in your hands. 2-part epoxy is your best bet...but clean it up real good, and let it air for a few days. glue fumes aren't the best thing for your brain cells...

You could maybe try masking tape. My glass bowl broke into two pieces right in the middle, and putting tape around it, it still gets me good and high.

Not to mention the way it enhances the aesthetics of the piece.

yes indeed nothing like a nice coloured glass pipe with a load of filthy duct tape wound around it

they do have that new clear duct tape from 3M. .... you really cant salvage a broken bong without it looking like shit. break down and buy a new one if you really care that much about asthetics. and hey.... be more careful next time man, glass bongs aint cheap
