And I thought my homemade pieces were good Dude I'd seriously buy something from you if you were down to send something thru the mail, the stuff you make is LEGIT!
I usually use bottoms of small bottles and such, they create a good surface to use. I usually use the "travel size" 3oz bottles, they are a pretty good size. They look like this: The gridded looking things for the inlines and such, those are from these self-filtering water bottles called "bobble": And you are correct about the hot glue. Its easy to work with and stays secure well. The saran wrap wheels are exactly what they are too, got em from saran warp containers in a deli Im definitely thinking of doing something like a Peyote Pillar very soon, just been brainstorming some uses for supplies and a good design. Anyone have ideas for a design?
Bobbles are pretty fucking expensive, even just the filter part is expensive. But otherwise good shit, thanks for letting us know what you use
You definitely have a pretty amazing imagination and you are crazy talented. There is just something that throws me off smoking out of plastic. Id rather hit my plain straight tube with an Alex k downstem then any of those plastic tubes. Just my preference but ill take glass over all. How do you clean them? I would think alcohol would eat, I could be wrong. I just wanna say again that I mean no hate because just the fact that you did it is awesome I just don't think that's good for you.
Cool designs, but I wouldn't smoke one of them.. Plastic degrades a lot. It isn't nearly as inert as glass. Looks cool, though.
Honestly, just follow SG's design I think. When you get the idea of the functionality of the bong, you'll be able to figure out how to make it. For my homemade pillar, I personally used a pill bottle and straws for the peyote/pillars, and Vitamin Water bottles as the tube. PM me if you want an in-depth explanation. My first one isn't very clean at all, infact it's very sloppy and I used a lot more glue than I should have. I'm going to remake the pillar this coming week hopefully, and make an awesome representation of a true peyote pillar bong.
