Hey Potheads.
I have seen a few pictures on this site and on others of people taking glass jars/bottles and making bongs out of them. I really, really want to do this and everything, but what is the best way to punch a hole in a glass bottle without having to worry about cracking it?
Thanks!
glass drill bit
yea.. you can't just punch a whole in a glass bottle... you need a glass drill bit... you a platic 20oz bottle... just heat up the spot where you want you slide(empty bic pen) with a lighter and push it through.. it should make a wholethe size of the slide.. don't heat it too mush though.. then all the plastic melts
in my thread about the bong i made, the can was glass but the top was tin. thats how it is on just about every tomato sauce can ive seen. you wont need to poke a hole in the glass, you can just use a pair of scissors and poke the tin, very easy. peace.
Do you happen to have a link to that thread, or do you know where it is?Quote:

glad to be able to help, if you have questions feel free to ask. peace.
Allright, cool. I think that I'll just stick with the bong that I made out of my 1 liter bottle. It hits like a fuckin' bomb. It takes 2 hits to clear it because I let it get real dense before I hit it.
Which brings me to my next point. The Bowl/Stem.
What is the best way to make one of these? My personal favorite, and the one that seems to work the best is when I take a bic pen stick (hollowed out) and then I wrap foil over it, sticking small holes in the foil. Then I take some more foil and use that to make the actual bowl.
Can anyone help me? Pictures would be greatly appreciated, I'm more of a "visual learner". Thanks.
hempamasta, you need to leave that tin foil alone man. bad for the brain!!!
yeah I know.. I don't want to get sick off it, that's why I am looking for the best way to make a bowl for a bong that is safe to hit.
The last bong i made was from an alien cup from the fair, cut the top off, put a neon green stem with a 3/4 inc socket then a carb in the back...
Most people only use glass as their bong structures because of the following reasons:
a) cleaner
b) tastes better
c) easier to clean
d) glass does not release toxic fumes at temperatures produced from smoking, so its the safest way to go
Plastic and tin give off toxic fumes every time the hot hot marijuana smoke is vaccumed into the chamber by someone hoping to get high. Sure, tehy'll get high, and they'll also get a lung full of extra toxins that only help them on their way to needing an oxygen tank. Dont use plastic or tin or aluminum as any of your parts, they will only hurt you. I'd rather smoke out of an apple than a bong made with harmful parts, your an idiot if you want to fuck up your lungs even more than you already are taking in carbon, tar, and other thigns formed just from burning the pot. Go to the store, buy a glass drill bit and a drink with a glass bottle, then with the money you save from not needing to buy a home respirator and a portable oxygen tank because you were stupid enough to inhale EVEN MORE toxic fumes on top of your pot. Happy smoking guys, and believe me I love smoking as much as any of you (maybe more), but your already hurting your lungs enough. Smoking ANYTHING is bad for your lungs, smoking pot every once in a while out of a nice glass piece isnt healthy for you and still does significant damage to your lungs. Knowing how harmful smoke already is to you, why would anyone possibly want to make it even worse? If you want to scorch your lungs, well, thats your decision. I smoke alot and my lungs arent exactly peachy; but I smoke safely and I know thats the reason I can still breathe. Dont use toxic parts to make your bong just because its easier, any plastic that smoke touches inside your bong is going to release toxic fumes every time you smoke. Any aluminum foil or tin foil your lighter flame waves by when your having a good time toking up is another blast of harmful lung-killing crap that makes you dumb by killing brain cells. Ill say it one more time, its your body. Do whatever the hell you want with it. I'm just saying that the marijuana smoke we all love is harmful enough to our lungs; if your retarded enough to make a bong out of the wrong parts becuase youre too dam lazy to do it right then you dont deserve to have a bong in the first place.
I think I've pushed my point across, flame me if you want to but I'm just trying to tell you whats right.

^^^^^^Way to much for me to read, haha
Okay, ill sum it up for you then.
DONT USE PARTS THAT FORM TOXIC FUMES IN YOUR BONGS EVEN IF ITS EASIER, THE POT SMOKE ALREADY DOES ENOUGH DAMAGE TO YOUR LUNGS WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU VOLUNTARILY ADD TO THAT!!!

cheap, easy but as radefactor says plastic can be sketchy
ok to that guy that was all like dont use toxic parts my bongs are made from from a PLASTIC bottle and my downy pipe is a PLASTIC biro pen holo my bong bowl sum bud and me hitting it and i ust use sum glue to stick the bowl to the end of the pen this is when im desperate and these are like bong that u use once u ur mates all hit it untill u have no bud that u wont to use or have to use left and then u take the pen with bowl still on top or take the bowl of and then cuck the rest o and everyone can figure out how to hit it and u melt the plastic a bit were u need to put ur downy pipe and then use the pen befor holoing to stab trough and then u can burn a shotty into the other side of the bottle and then take the cork off and hit it
No, I'm not going to flame you, that would just be immature and not get this conversation anywhere.Quote:

Yeah, I used to fuck around with pipes made entirely out of tinfoil. Then I saw a thing about the production of The Wizard of Oz, and it said the original Tin Man nearly died because his costume's face paint was made with aluminum dust, and it coated his lungs whenever he breathed, until eventually he couldn't breathe. They changed the paint and hired a new Tin Man. I was holding one of my homemade tinfoil pipes in my hand. I shat a brick.
