Fourzer0 is pretty damn right on. Great description and advice. The only thing I can think of to add is when you go to purchase said water pipe first think about what you like in a WP. Like do you want a carb or a stem the pulls out to clear the smoke? Do you want all glass on glass? In other words all pieces are glass except a couple of rubber O-rings.
I would also recommend something short and practical. I have never liked the 4 foot bongs! I like something with a flat sturdy base, that is not top heavy with a bunch of crap so you spill bong water everywhere.

This site Glass pipes water bongs one-hitters spoons bubblers grinders has just about every kind of water pipe and glass product you could want.

I have a simple glass on glass that has a slider bowl for the carb. It is shaped like a med size beaker and is about 12 inches tall. the only thing I would like to make different about it is I don't have the indents for holding an ice cube.

BTW to clean it I cut the top off a two litter bottle and fill it full of rubbing alcohol and salt. Then all you need is a bottle or glass cleaning brush and a little time.

Hope you find this useful.
McLuvin Reviewed by McLuvin on . New to smoking, Questions to be answered! Hello there! I have only been smoking for about half a year or so and the only things I've smoked so far are: Joints, Blunts, Bowls and Water Bongs I just recently started buying and was looking online for a decent bowl to buy, the site I was checking out had Ice Bongs and I didn't really get the general concept. A few things I read online said they had ice between the glass, so my first question to that would be, does that melt and you have to keep the bong in your freezer before using Rating: 5
