advice on materials to use

[necrophagist]

Hi guys, I've been lurkin here for awhile but just decided to join the forum. Seems like a pretty cool place :thumbsup:

So anway, I'm a pretty novice smoker. I just started about 2 weeks ago and am diggin it haha. But I need some suggestions on home made pipes / bongs etc. So far I've been smoking out of a water bong I made using some long ass water bottle I found at school, an emptied out bic pen, and a socket. It's probably not as air tight as it could be but I'm fairly happy with it, except for the socket (bowl). The opening isn't big enough but at the same time it's actually too deep. It's like I pack as much in there but feel like I'm only getting smoke from the upper portion. Then when I try to get the weed out to reposition it I can't

Is there a better household item (besides foil) to use as a bowl? Or maybe just a whole new bong / pipe you guys suggest throwing together? I've been lookin around for shit that might work but can't really find anything.

This is the mans first post and noone can help him??
Man theres not really much to do, are you using a screen, is it falling into the bong? Make it more airtight and you know ya need a carb and shit just pull and pull and pull.

get some papers or invest in a pipe. Smoking out of plastic is not a lot of fun

I'll tell you straight out bro, smoking out of plastic and metal is nasty (my opinion that is shared by many). You want to enjoy smoking to the fullest invest in a proper glass piece, a small glass on rubber bong (not too small atleast 8 inches) or a nice 4-5 inch pipe will only cost like 20 bucks and will be good enough until you get into the swing of smoking.
And it will last you until you break it.
But if you really want a home made then atleast keep it glass, I used a dremel to put a hole in an old juice bottle and put a rubber gromet around the inside, squeezed a female piece in there and got a bong bowl with a rubber O-ring. It you dont have a dremel or a diamond drill bit then I guess you can use fruit to make pipes, I'm kind of really against plastic/metal.

Good luck in whatever you choose though.
