Finally built 1/2 of a bottle bong, looking for advice on how to make a conepiece
15 replies, posted
So I've done it.
Got a lighter, melted area for the hose piece (badly)
Inserted, duct taped the shit out of and now I have 1/2 a bong.
The only worry that I have is, is my weed going to fall out of my (not yet made) conepiece, and what I can do to prevent this.
Here's some pictures of my handiwork
Also this is my first time smoking alone, and since my family will be alseep I'm not sure what I can do.
I've considered listening to music (some animals as leaders, going to crank that shit)
TV, ofc
Food, a given
here's my work so far, please tell me if anything is wrong
But really, people just please tell me the best way to make a conepiece and so that my weed won't fall out because that's what I am afraid of.

somebody reply, help a brotha out.
I have googled/youtubed this and I'd just like some reassurance
No offense but it's pretty shitty looking and I don't even know if it's airtight, if it's not, you'll have LOTS of trouble hitting it, and if you do get a hit, it'll be airy and a baby hit anyways.
you're probably right, none taken
what would you suggest
UHhhhh, you could rip apart a marker, melt the end of that onto the bottle, and then rip apart a bic pen with a rubber band around it (one of those smaller ones typically seen on bowls if possible) and I'm not sure what you'll have to end up using for the actual bowl part.
are you telling me to replace the stem or use the marker as the bowl or something?
I'm trying to avoid using pens, or anything that's really made of plastic
[editline]09:08PM[/editline]
I will probably end up using alfoil though
and yes it is airtight, althought it looks terrible it is airtight I checked
I understand I am ignorant and stupid so please don't make fun of my failure(s)
Don't worry, we were all ignorant at one time man. I was saying replace the stem with the marker part, and then the pen would be your bowl (minus the literal bowl part where you put weed in), but I didn't realize it was airtight...If you're trying to stay away from plastic due to health-related issues, stay away from tin foil as well.
there's no chance in hell that you'll get a goood hit out of that. At least circle tap around the bottle to block the stem hole.

Yeah I realise that tin foil isn't good for you but I'm not sure what else to use, I'll consider that

Yeah, I'm going to make another one.
What I had intended was for the bottle to melt around the stem (I used a lighter) and thus air seal it.
I taped it shut anyway, to make sure. It doesn't look legit though, so I will do it again.

I'd really prefer to have a friend who knows what they are doing make me a bong but they're so unreliable it will never happen.
I wish I had an actual bowl from a headshop and then I'd melt the bowl around the garden hose, at least that's what my friend did.
I've unsuccessfully tried to buy myself a pipe or a bong as well (not 18)
Just pay someone to buy you one.
I've tried that, so many times
Also, do I NEED a screen to stop my weed falling out? Because half the DIY cones I've seen just involve "Make a cone and poke the bottom out, lol"
The weed I have is very fine (as in like sugar, not quality)

So many views, so little help :(
Looks like your standard bogan Australian 5 minute bong.
Water bottle and a chunk of garden hose (probably stolen from a neighbour's new hose they bought on Sunday down at Bunnings Warehouse).
[editline]08:42PM[/editline]
If you are going for the standard way of making one of those, just get a little blu-tac and putty that around where the stem meets the bottle.
Then for the cone piece, get a coke can, cut a small circle of metal off that, make a small cut in it from the edge to the centre, then bend it into a cone shape.
Just wedge that into the end of the hose and you're done.
That's what I wanted to know
and my friend you're almost 100 per cent correct
I am an Australian, pretty much a bogan now may I add but I stole it from outside my house.
Will do, hopefully will smoke on saturday

I've also added little holes on the end of the stem so that it doesn't come out in a massive bubble, and in little ones.
thanks for help/advice and if have any more please post
Why can't you buy a bong? It's not illegal to own/buy one in Australia. I have about 6 pieces and got my first one when I was 17.
Well I've tried to get one multiple times from the local headshop
Ever time, they ask for ID
other than that I don't know anyone who's 18 so I can't get one
If you know any kids in band you can borrow a trumpet or a trombone mouthpiece, they work really well.
Haha, I don't know anyone in a band or whatever and that sounds really dishonest lol.
I just made another one, and it's most definately air tight. I'm going to make a cone out of a soda can (yes I know it's bad for you) and smoke out of that. That was my second attempt after my first one just sucked so bad
I always knew my first bong was going to suck, I'm just going to try to get high and see if it works
