Gday guys from Australia!

I'm fairly new to smoking and do it socially with mates. But we want to be a bit more experimental with smoking. I have looked a little bit into "hookah bongs" I think that's what they are called. The bongs with multiple hoses so many people can smoke at once.

Anyway, we are fairly creative and want to make (or buy one cheaply) one of these multi-hose bongs. Does anyone know how to? Or any websites that have instructions? Or any websites offering hookah bongs (if this is what they are called.

Thanks in advance guys! :rastasmoke:

its easier just to make a bong man, plus hookahs are ok, but sometimes you might end up with a whole lot less smoke than someone else like if you got a friend that's a hog, so I'd go for just a bong so you can take turns ripping it

okay mate, (firstly gday from melb), secondly there is a diff between a bong and a hookah, the ones with many hoses are not real hookas, though for some reason here in aus they are called hookas, a hookah is a traditional middle eastern water pipe (also known as a Nargillah, Nargila, various other spellings..... and a Shisha) Off ya tree sells em, but not well priced, if u live in melb let me know and i can tell you bout a shop that sells hookahs,

as for a bong with a couple of pipes, pretty easy to make, all you need to do is make a regular bong, out of a coke bottle or whatever you make it with, make a couple of holes in it and find some kind of tubing, shove them into the holes (remember to put the holes at the top of the bong so you can fill in enough water)

also make sure not to put too many tubes in, the more people smoking at the same time, the more of a struggle there is to get that smoke, say 4 people smoking at once (as is usual with the "Party Bongs" with many hoses), there may be one person taking most of the smoke, while others only get a little bit (if any)

a good cheap site for smoke products is
https://www.smokesignalsshop.com.au/

its an aussie site, shop is based out of adelaide, havent ever bought from them before, but im considering it...... they do have good prices, once again, the hookas they sell aint real hookahs, they are the party bongs ure interested in, they got some nice ones there....

ok sweet i have all of that, but do you need to put a sort of mouth piece on to limit the amount of air being sucked in? and will you need a bigger cone piece?

thanks mate so far :)

and whats the best way to clean a bong? i've heard 99% alcohol works but i dont have any of that

thanks guys :)

yeah, a bigger cone piece may help, ive got a yoda bong, four hoses, MASSIVE cone, takes a couple grams straight, without mixing.... retty darn good, but for a home made one you wouldnt really need one, as for a mouth piece, dont think ud need one, but if u have one go for it, if u want i can also draw a diagram for ya and post it here..... it may help you a bit....

i think i understand, but thanks heap for your help mate!

if i had to make one know with yuor advice id probably get a 2L coke bottle make some holes up the top for the pipes and drill a hole in the bottle top for the C.P. (or make a larger one that fits without the lid) and make sure everything is completely air tight.

Would a shotty be necessary? i'm guessing it would to clear the chamber out..

hey, im a bit high and it was fun, so i made a diag anyway....... sorry if it sounds a bit condescending, i wrote all the instructions for a five year old......... so yeah, but ure pretty much right there, all u gotta do is get a coke bottle and make the holes up top......

also my drawings arent good, but u try drawing stoned in paint....... also left instructions there to make a cone piece, out of a length of hose (just cut it from your garden hose) and a coke can, though i would recommend going to a smoke shop and just buying a cone, or using the cone from someone elses bong as the hose/coke can cones arent the best, but they do work (i once made one using a texta' instead of a hose, wokred just the same...... also used an aust post mailing tube instead of a coke bottle, tell me that aint mcguyver shit right there.....)

ummm.... shotty weouldnt be necesary, though if u wanna use it u can i guess.......

HAHAHAHA gold! thanks man, for some reason i said put the CP in the coke lid... lol my bad, was getting confused with gravity bongs or whatever. I have a CP, its only about 1 cm high though. I have made hose/coke can pipe/CP's before but i cant find an easy way to fold the aluminium strip (from the coke can to make a cone. Probably takes me about 15 minutes to perfect each time. I need a better technique!

But yeah that looks sweet, hope you had fun making the diagram, its sick! and funny too :)

hey np man, yeah was pretty fun, sorry its a bit all over the place, i was planning on making it more structured, but i kept on needing to add crap and when i was done i just coudlnt be stuffed organizing everything.....

with your cone pieces, its hard to get a good technique, it took me alot of practice, most important thing though is to avoid cutting your finers, a good tip is get a huge sheet from the coke can, if its too big u can always cut it with scissors when ure done,

also, an easy way of making airtighjt holes in the bottle (4got to mention this earlier) is to use scisors and just puncture the bottle so you have a small straught line slit, then grab your lighter and hold the flame over the slit, it will melt away the slit into the shape of a perfect circle, a little practice and you can get it to the exact size you need, so it will be completely airtight.......

Hey man, I'm in Adelaide. GetDown knows what's up, if you want good pieces relatively cheap, Smoke Signals is the way to go. I've bought from them a couple times.

Have fun being creative.

Peace

Which model is it? I was in yesterday looking for a new slide, so I didn't notice anything else. But chances are, a vaporiser for $30 is gonna be shit, even from Smokies.

Peace
