Bone carving

Ok before anyone bitches about using the search feature, I already tried it and it didn't come up with anything helpful.

I would like to try carving a pipe out of bone, but am not even sure of where I can get the supplies. I just checked hobby lobbies website but didn't see anything about bone carving. I may try wood first since it would be much easier to find, cheaper, and probably easier. The thing is I really want a bone pipe that is simply one of the few things I will not buy. If I can make it than great, if not than I will do without.

Any way, if anyone has any information it is much appreciated. I ran an interent search and the only how to's I found were for homemade gravity bongs and anything else I have already used, made, or would only use in highschool when our latest pipe broke an we had no papers.

We broke a lot of pieces in HS. Actually we broke a one, random people broke the rest.

I think its an awsome idea, to carve a pipe out of bone like a savage sailor, but to be honest i have no idea how the fuck to go about it.

Dig up a grave?

would it be sweet or what to make a pipe out of like a fucking elaphnt tusk a nice ivory pipe.

go dig up ol granny

Wouldnt that be illegal? i mean its not like we all dont do illegal things but its a elephant... If you must get it off a dead elephant and make a BONG.

Not a human bone... I thought that would be understood without having to say it... but guess not. Anyone, I'm not sure what type would be best to begin with. Some bones are harder than others and some are softer. I also thought about using a horn... But no, I'm not going to be mutilating (sp) any animials or grannies corpse :)

Go to a butcher, Im sure he can supply the proper sized bone. Then all you would need is a woodworker's table thing with clamps and a belt sander and a chisel and hammer to carve the bowl. Making the hole from the mouthpeice to the bowl might be a lil tricky, probably can find a drillbit that will do the job though. Try to find somebody with a lot of tools is basically what I'm saying, like a carpenter or something. This should be pretty do-able with a little searching around.

a skull bong would be awsome though lol

I smoked hash out of a human skull in vietnam......


















Just kidding, im only 21. Wasn't alive then, just thought that was funny =)

OK, Iâ??m thinking this may not be as feasible as I originally thought. When someone suggests the help of a carpenter, it makes me think it might be a little hard to get all that in place. Not to mention I would have to sanitize the bone somehow. Iâ??m not a clean person, so I wouldnâ??t trust anything Iâ??m supposed to sanitize. I just donâ??t think Iâ??m motivated for all that, not to mention I would probably do something to fuck it up. It would be a great conversation piece though. Anyway thanks for the carpenter advice.

bones are plentiful inthe wilderness :D jsut go and find one when you go camping or something. then carve out a bowl, drill down a little with a small bit, then drill longways and intersect with the hole coming down from the bowl

to sanitize the bones just boil them
