Epoxy

I have read that one person has actually "epoxy'd" a screen permanently into their bowl, and I may do the same thing. I am looking for some opinions as to if this is safe or not and what type of epoxy to use. I am using a glass bowl.

what the hell is epoxy

id stay away from doing that. could be harmful when your lighting your bud ...wouldnt want to inhale anything but the green goddess

If your thinking of using the epoxy i know, that would be a very bad idea. Also, what happens when it gets dirty?

I use epoxy to seal my bongs (make them water or air tight). I make sure it's never near a place that will get hot (I really don't want to inhale epoxy). For making a screen stay in place, I think good ol' resin is the trick there...

thanks for your replies guys im not going to try that then... its just that i clean my pipe regularly along with the screen and it would be nice if the screen was attached to it... but oh well

You're better off just replacing the screen when it gets all resined up.

I dunno i guess i never worried about tasting the metal. I don't really pay attention to that kind of stuff when im smoking.
