Is it safe to make a bowl or pipe out of copper?

you could end up inhaling copper oxide or something, which will fuck you up something awful. just get a brass piece and a glass piece. use the brass when your on the go and the glass at home.

oh well there u go, so i was mistaken all along i coulda sworn those screens my buddy had were copper...but i venture to say they were brass...doubt a headshop would sell u screens that arent safe for u to smoke with

Yeah they are both soft, colored metals but brass is yellower and has a bit more resistance to tarnish- it's an alloy. Copper is a pure elemental substance, as is aluminum; both are quite prone to oxidation.

yeah stinky thats what it is my bad...haha brass thats like a copperish color too right? hell if i no...

I've never seen a copper screen, only steel and brass ones.
Please don't use copper or aluminum for pipes people.

i love bongs n pipes i got unto amounts of both (youve seen the pics of chisme's collection ) but i ate the mettalic taste when smoking from them(mainly pipes) thats why i stick mainly to joints

[ganjzilla]

yeah they normally sell copper or steel screens at most head shops...but thats a screen not a bowl...and i can tell the difference in taste between steel and copper screens and id much rather have steel so idk if id really wnna smoke a copper pipe...maybe if u had some dankass weed in there id take a hit or two just because the herb was that good but def not on a reg basis
