Smoking out of alum?

[Buck268]

Is fairly harmess, right? I mean, I could swear I've seen 'em sell aluminum bowls before....

I ask because I just made a sweet pipe out of an old, extra mini-mag lite, and it smokes fucking NICE But leaves a weird taste in my mouth... Maybe its just been that long since I've smoked from a metal piece

But leaves a weird taste in my mouth...

it's harmless and that's all i've ever experienced.

I've smoked out of my fair share of tin tokers and gravity bong caps. If aluminum foil is bad for you, fuck.

[slipknotpsycho]

aluminum is dangerous.

[bitchiwillslice]

aluminum kills?

[Buck268]

aluminum is dangerous.

But is billet aluminum dangerous? Mini-mags are made from billet, which is quite different than foil. Actually, they might even be annodized, I'm gonna check that out...

Oh hell yes, Mag-Lites are fully anodized inside and out!

Could you post a picture of the pipe, or tell me how to make one?

Gravity caps are usually made with sockets which are stainless steel. Stainless isn't harmful

I will, but I must encourage you to take a look at a mag lite, and think about it. Your first thought may center on the reflector, but remember its shiny, but its plastic

Hint: I used a standard (1/2" IIRC) brass screen. There is a black plastic piece your gonna wanna pull out from where the bulb is. Just pry is out, it pops out fine.

Best part is, this is fully reversable for travel or such
