Help me to build a bong or a a pipe (Pipe is preferred)
35 replies, posted
For the last couple of months I've been smoking on and off with some friends.
I now through a friend would be able to get my hands on some weed, and since the holidays are coming up I would like to be properly equipped.
Now all my friends smoke out of homemade bongs, and I prefer to smoke out of pipes.
Could somebody link me, or explain to me how I could build my own pipe or bong and the materials that I would need to do so.
I'd prefer a pipe, but either would be great, a pipe is just more manageable because I would need to hide it from my family.
In my town there is a shop that sells pipes, but I'm not 18 and I don't really know anyone who'd buy me a pipe if I gave them my money.
Also feel free to give any other advice if you wish, thanks a lot
make a gravity bong. [url]http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Gravity-Bong-in-10-Minutes[/url]. Replace the aluminum foil with a socket and BAM. Gravitys get you high as a motherfucker.

all you need to keep is the cap. you can make a new bottle everynight.
It's not as easy to store as I'd like though, I'll have a go at making one however

I've taken a look at some apple pipes which seem cool, easy to hide but I wonder how long they last for

for me, an apple pipe would only last me a day, but i always use the simplest design because im a lazy bastard
I wouldn't expect an apple one to last for more then a few bowls, I normally just eat it once I'm done anyways.
Here's what I did: get a piece of wood, cut it into a rectangle shape, get a small socket, and drill two holes in it so that it looks kinda like this if you were to cut it open:
|---| |-----------|
|---| |=======
|____________|
Jam the socket into the top hole, and find something that you can use a screen.

Or if you'd be willing to try a shotgun, get a long tube, preferable glass, but plastic will do (not a water bottle). If it's glass, CAREFULLY break the end off. It WILL shatter, so try to break pieces off so that it has a bit of a V shaped gap.
Then take tape and wrap it over the shattered part so that you won't cut the shit out of your hand when you put it over it, and put the same socket you'd use in the first pipe in the V slot. Seal it all up with tape.
When you smoke from it, make sure you keep your hand on the broken end, and when you inhale the smoke, take your hand off of it like it was a carb.
That's fairly helpful, both posts.
Yeah I'd eat the apple actually, if I was to get baked then obviously you'd destroy anything nearby that you can eat.
I've got a question about the gravity bong however.
I understand everything, except a little about the cap.
So you get the tin foil and everything, make your hole and then push the foil inside the hole. After that, what then?
do you put foil over the top (with the holes in it) that has your herb sitting on top and then smoke from there?
Also how far away is the top of the cut off of the bottom of the bottle from the water?
Is it just sitting on the surface so no smoke can escape, or is it further away.
Also once I've smoked the weed, does pushing the bottle into the water push the smoke upwards through the neck of the bottle.

If that makes no sense allow me to clarify just let me know
Basically to use a gravity bong you light the bud as you pull the bottle out of the water, so the smoke gets pulled in, and then once it's full (keep the bottle in the water a bit so smoke doesn't get out) unscrew the top, put your mouth on it, and push the bottle down, inhaling the smoke.
Also, not sure if it's just my pieces, but all the homemade ones I've made (two pipes, two bongs, and one chilum) were all harsh as fuck compared to a store bought one.

So basically
Have bottle out of water whilst lighting bud
allow bottle to build up with smoke (still outside of water)
Unscrew top (bottle still out of water)
Once it's at a satisfatory level, push bottle back down into water and inhale smoke
Hold in lungs as long as possible
Exhale
I'm sorry if I'm being painstaking here.
Also with the cap. do you put foil over the funnel part that has holes in it and lay the bud over that?

I would really like a store bought pipe, but I'm not sure if I can get one
a friend of a friend might buy one, but I don't expect him to get a bus to the city just to get me a pipe
Not sure if it's different with gravity bongs, but with anything else I'm pretty sure 5 seconds is enough to absorb the THC, after that it's just sitting in your lungs.
I hold it for as long as I can
Much longer that 5 secs usually
no, you have the obttle in the water except the top, so when you pull it out the smoke is pulled in. otherwise the smoke will just go up and you'll lose it. pull it up slowly until the bud is done burning. then you take the cap off and put your mouth on quick, then push it down.
you could just order a pipe online.
Well once the THC is absorbed it really isn't doing anything. Not sure if it can hurt to hold it though.
I normally can't hold for more then 3-4 seconds though, the pieces I make are amazingly harsh, and I'm too paranoid to go to the headshop myself.
I'm thinking of getting a disposable visa card and ordering a piece online.
I'd need credit card details and such, and I live at home (because I'm still in high school) and that way I would be busted
Disposables my friend.
If you have paypal, send me a few bucks for it and I can order it for you if you can't get one.
prepaid credit card + wait for the delivery man = problem solved
You're probably right and Tank I really would appriciate that one.
I think I'll try my hand at a gravity bong and make an apple pipe as well. When I'm not using the apple I'll chuck it in the freezer. I think I'll know exactly when and where I will be smoking, as there's a friend that I'll be doing it with.
Honestly, unless there's a specific reason that you don't want a bought one, it's better to do that. That's just from my experience, though.
If you want me to order you one I'll hold off on getting one for me.
Dude, if I did give you the money I would clearly give you some cash for your trouble.
It's fine, just find one you'd want here [url]http://www.chunkyglasspipes.com/[/url]
I'm not really sure what one I want, probably a sherlock though.
When I said I'd hold off I meant I'd just wait for you to get your money and order when you're ready, not that I'd buy you one instead of me.
But if you want to give me extra I won't stop you :v:
First I'm going to try the gravity bong, so it wouldn't happen straight away anyway but yeah I figured that out before.
But yeah going to try some own homemade stuff and see if I can get somebody else to get me one from that store
In that case I'll just order one now, but if you ever do need me to do it for you just shoot me a PM.
I will man, I just don't want to mess you around or have you waiting on me or anything.
But I really appriciate it, I'd just like to test out some alternatives first

Enjoy your pipe :v:
Also for anyone else reading, more suggestions would be also quite helpful
What me and my friend did was make a vape out of a lightbulb. Much stronger than a pipe, but rather harsh to smoke out of, and it really easily breaks.
Worth trying if you haven't already though:

Instead, for the cap, we used a small metal pipe from my friends old amp cable, and a straw.
Worked like a charm
I tried that, but it didn't seem right without the smoke
[QUOTE=^0mKTank;21007582]I tried that, but it didn't seem right without the smoke[/QUOTE]
I got stoned off my feet with only .5 grams.
I woke up and I still felt rather good.
you ever try the sobe bottle waterfall bong thing? its kinda like a gravity bong, they work pretty much the same but i personally like waterfall bongs better

Oh it worked fine, but it just didn't seem right.
Here's one I made earlier.
3 chambers.

I haven't but I'll take a look into it.
I guess I'm really just looking for "concealable" stuff.
In truth I'd really like a glass pipe, I just organised all my shit together namely where I'm keeping my materials.
Atm I have lighter (that I found the other day)
and Matches (for when the lighter runs out)
I'm keeping them in this soft little PSP case which I bought a while ago
It zips shut and I could fit baggies and pipes in there snugly, there's little pouches for UMDs to fit in
Incidentally it's my Porn USB hiding place, so I won't forget where it is lol.
and I'm going to find a place to put it out of sight.
lol nice for above poster
