i just had to make this thread cuz i mean all i smoke are gravitys...i dont smoke a lot of weed anymore but i stay high all day..hit here hit there....keeps u lovely geeked..

I'm really curious as to how many people respect the gravity bong...personally ive never used anything better.......im really curious as to how many of u out there use it and what type u use.....ive seen MANY differernt ways of making it and i feel my freinds "invention" of the "travel size" gravity bong is definetly the best

...the way the smoke builds up soo thick and yellow, nasty, and the force is so perfect to rush the smoke into your lungs almost immediatly.........its such a intense head rush..

.ive been smoking these like nonstop for over like 4 years now n its all i smoked i just smoked one jsut n im incredibly high..i love it......anyways heres how i make mine..........try it out gaurentee ull like it


1 liter bottle (the one liter fits perfect into the big gulp)
big gulp bottle
something sharp (scissors screwdrive etc)
1 liter bottle cap (the big round kind bigger then a 2 liter cap)
bowl head

put holes the size of a slightly bigger then average pen in the bottom of the bottle about 4-5 around the very bottom
and one hole on the side toward the very top of the 1 liter to use as a carb

the cap:

take the cap, make a small hole almost perfectly round as possible
the hole should be the size so that the bowl head definetly cant fit inside of it....from there use a lighter to make the hole big enough untill u can screw the bowl head into the cap...make sure not to ruin the threads on the cap that attach the cap to the 1 liter

once u have the cap made uve done the only hard part of this sometimes people mess it up their 1st try n normally takes a couple mins jsut take your time its worth it......but its only a cap so u can mess up n its not the end of the world just get another one....

its travel size.....fits in any bookbag......can go anywhere....works perfect...takes some playing with the holes in the bottom where the water drains to get it perfect but once u do its amazing just start small and open them up untill u see fit......it works much better due to force and the way it lights, then if u just cut off the bottom of the bottle...theres more control this way to light it and get thicker hits (trust me ive done it every way n this is definetly the best if done right)

to light it: {some ppl are new n really dont know ive met many ppl who smoke weed but just cant figure out how to do this....?}

weed in bowl head
screw on cap to the liter bottle thats in the big gulp filled with water
hold the carb{hole on the side}
light the bowl head with a lighter
pul the bottle out of the water slowly with the flame on the bowl head
once allmost out of the water unscrew the cap, inhale and push down back into the water to force water in thru the bottom and the air out of the top where u are sucking from



ill NEVER eVER make a post this long again sorry bout that........i just love GRAVITY bongs seriiously love them.....i spent like 2 years with a gravity bong in my book bag and a gallon of water in my car and spent like the whole time driving around with freinds chillin places n smoking gravitys out of the travel size ....i think of weed i think of smokin a gravity..to me other then blunts any other use of weed is a waste

All the gravity bongs I've ever done ripped my throat apart but laid me out. Mostly, I've done the gallon, 1 and 2 liter Gravity Bongs, but with a rare occurence. The water medium for the gallon was a salad bowl and for the 1 and 2 liters were in pitchers. Next time I end up doing it, I'm loading the water with ice to hopefully ward off the scratchy throat issue. Screw tops are annoying, aren't they?

Yea i definately respect teh gravity. Other than a nice L gravitys are my favorite. I love getting it thick and creamy adn just forcing it in. You stay high for at least an hour longer with gravitys. no Joke

Gravity bongs scare me, and I can smoke some trees.

I took one hit off that shit, and 10 minutes later i was WRECKED. I haven't touched it since....but I will again one day :-D

Yeah. I had my lady use a Geebee ((what we call gravity bong)) and she got totally messed up... it was her first time though so maybe she shouldnt have used one. But anyway, she was seriously tripping. Like grabbing me and asking me to help her she doesn't know where she is and shit. And for all the smartasses, it was just some kind bud, not laced or shit.

I do G-bongs occasionally when I have a lot of weed (not too often these days) and want to get real fucked up, but mostly I just stick to my glass bowl and regular bong since a G-bong goes through a bowl really quickly and I don't get a chance to truly savor the flavor. Plus with G-bongs you get that plasticky taste which I presume comes from lots of hot smoke slightly melting the inside of the bottle.

Gravity bongs are time-consuming which is why I don't use one anymore.

Ha. GB's are killer. Feels like I'm walking through a burning building and just taking a deep breath in. Ugh... Not something I recommend doing on a consistant basis unless you like black lungs.

Anyway, back at school we used to make them out of 3 liter soda bottles and a pitcher to hold the water. However, from what I've seen I (and my fraternity brothers) make them somewhat usual compared to most. We don't use a bowl head, we make our own bowl. I find this to be the *best* way to do it - ie: thickest smoke, strongest hit.

Take your 3L soda bottle, cut off the bottom as far down as you can (so the piece remining it as tall as possible). Take the cap, make a nice sized hole in it (slightly smaller than a dime, enough to fit a sharpie through with several sheets of tinfoil wrapped around it). Then break out the TINFOIL. This is the KEY.

Rip of several sheets of tinfoil about 6"x6" or so (aprox). Get a BIC pen (or something similar-sized) and mold/fit a piece of tinfoil to the bottom of the BIC pen about 1/2". Take the pen (with the alum foil still wrapped aroud it) and place it inside the hole you just made on the cap. Wrap and flatten the tinfoil around the cap and up underneath where the threads are. Continue this process ONE SHEET AT A TIME. Use about 10 sheets total or so. After you're done, take a SMALL pin and poke 1-2 holes in the bottom of the "bowl" you just made. The SMALLER the holes the BETTER. Take a lighter and pull a hit WITHOUT any herb for about 10 times to wear the cap in. It's not going to work well the first few times, but after about 20 or so it will be perfect. I've attached a few pics.

The hardest part is making sure you have a good seal. And make sure you use AT LEAST 7-8 sheets. Wrap them up well underneath the cap to make an airtight seal. After you're done, twist the cap on BUT SLOWLY. Don't crank down on it all the way, it will get stuck and you will not be able to take it off without destroying the nice new bowl you made. Twist it on until its somewhat tight, then loosen. Repeat until the tinfoil layers underneath the threads of the cap are nice and tight.

Tinfoil rips easily, so it takes some caution to ensure it works well. If you made one, packed a hit, and pulled it and not getting any smoke (or very thin smoke) you have a leak somewhere. The sign of a good GB constructed this way - let all the air out of the bong, and let it sink to the bottom of the pitcher. Twist the cap on snugly and then pull up - you should feel some resistance and water should rise up with the bottle as you pull. Also when lighting a packed hit, you should see the herb light up brightly as the air is being sucked into the bottle at a high speed.

I've smoked plenty of GB's in my day. Never have I smoked any with a bowlhead that comes anywhere hear to as strong as to the ones we make out of tinfoil. Granted this is an art, and it takes much practice to make a good one. But in the end it is well worth it. Also, we throw a pingpong ball in the pitcher, underneath the 3L bottle to ensure we don't accidently sip up any bong water (ew) - you can see it through the plastic in the pic of the whole bong. Give it a shot and good luck. Also be prepared to sit down right after you take it. :)

For Christmas last year my fiance's best friend got us a glass gravity bong. He bought the tube glass piece (that you push down) at a head shop so it has a bowl in cork for the top. then got a big glass vase at a craft store. We used some rubber tubing to make it a perculated gravity. Oh man it is sweet! We usually only load personal bowls because to do it right you need to use it ALL.
mmmmmmm T H I C K cloudy smokey goodness!

Glass GB?? Never heard of one. Do you mean the smoke is filtered through water when you say perculated? My friends and I came up with an idea for one the other day actually, if that's what you mean - only it's using plastic soda bottles instead of glass. I'd be interested to hear more about this thing.

Yes, the smoke is filtered through the water. The smoke gets sucked through the bowl, down the tube, into the water, and then fills up the chamber. I wish I could post a picture but I dont have a camera, grrr! It is beautiful though. umm dont really know what else to say about it, if you have anymore questions please ask!

lungs are by far the best way ive ever smoked dope, it gets you wrecked after like 2 hits and i mean wrecked, so bad you have to really try to act straight when needed, all of these other kids think oh yeah my friends do it and they're hooked... but will i get addicted if i take one hit.... the answer to that is no you really need to smoke weed regularly for a while to actually become addicted although i do not recommend it, kids under 17-18 should not get addicted to shyt like this... everyone with me???

ok first of all marijuana has no addictive properties....the addiction for this paticular herb depends on the person using. because that person CAN become addicted to the high...like me lol

Me too, bud. No worries.

Harmless addiction, the way I see it.

well if you have a slide for a bong and a socket piece that the slide fits in then you're all good. Don't worry about the screw tops. oh yea and ice does help but you still will feel like your chest is about to cave in.

I made a G-Bong out of a 1 galon milk jug and a feed bucket. Put on my bowl that holds about .75 grams and killed it in one hit. It took me less than 5 min to make.

I got STONED.
