Is there a reason there is a carb on a glass pipe?

Can you keep a non-carbed pipe from smoldering or cherrying up big?

Yeah, use a penny or some other object to tamp it out after you take a hit (I normally do that anyways, just to save the green).

some pipes if you hit them from the carb you can get fat hits.. my friends steam roller you hit it backwards and it riiiiips

I was being sarcastic. I didn't want to come out and say that this earned the 'worst thread of the day' award. If a persons brain can't grasp the idea of a simple pipe with a mysterious hole in the side, they probably shouldn't be smoking pot.

i agree simple logic should tell u wut its for and if u passed/even went to 5th grade science u would kno this stuff

I can't smoke out of a really really small pipe. I have to be able to see the bowl when im hitting it.

Otherwise I might be really stoned and my eyes cross and look down my nose into the bowl.

Hurts the eyes. I prefer a longer pipe with a carb. Pull it, clear it, pull it, clear it.

I don't understand how you could not have a carb? Not having one would mean that you have to pull *all* the air that goes into your lungs through the bowl. Then, when you are doing that, what happens to the cherry? Smolders big and burns all of your $pot$.

usually have a $LOT$ of $POT$ so dont really smoke bowls but i can see other less fortunate ppls ideal in weed conservation techniques

I actually just bought a pipe that doesnt have a carb on it. I was a little worried at first that it wouldnt work well, but it does. Actually, i like hitting it more that peiced with holes in them. I dont think they are neccesary for pipes because the chamber is so small...but whatever floats your boat i guess.

exactly what i was going to say before i had to comment 2 previous posts

i jus realized i posted 3 times on the same thread in a row... now im proud to go for FOUR i love being a stoner...

try this:
while inhaling lightly let your finger off the carb real quick a few times in a row. the cherry will get brighter and release more smoke. inhale like normal. keep the cherry bright using the same teqnique. with ground bud tightly packed you can burn the whole bowl only lighting it once.
that is the point of a carb.

The carb is a clutch
and if you do it right bear down at the end of your hit and kill the fire

of course...feather the hole to control the size of the cherry.

As far as the $pot$, I do have plenty of pot...its not about saving on the bag...its more about not having to pack a bowl every 5 minutes.

i never used my carb much, but i guess ill have to play around with it tonight haha! never knew you could keep the cherry goin that way.
