You should just make a very small hole, and then after you fire it, grind it out CAREFULLY with a roto-zip bit made for glass, and use a rubber grommet for the final fitting. I'll post 'in progress' pics next time I make a glass piece.
rubber grommets are the name of the game when it comes to airtight. If you want to ghetto rig you can use gum lol or maybe some type of glue. Gl with that i wonder how a clay bong would taste?
If I had to guess, probably 'earthy'...Quote:

if working with clay, id say just use a carb hole
Once you glazed the clay I dont think it would taste much differnt than glass
i wouldnt recommend glazing anything that gets hot
like the bowl...yeah
Id watch out with the clay. It seems like you might end up sucking a lot of clay dust into your lungs if you dont treat it somehow.
