So about a month ago I started making this wooden pipe I called Reginald. Last weekend I finished drilling at least the general bowl and my friend and I smoked out of it. For a screen I used a cut out bit of a window/door screen I found at my grandma's house but that was too big and I didn't feel safe using it. I was going to try and use a screen from an earbud but when I held it to a flame it turned black and smoke came off of it. I don't know if it's just the glue and earwax burning or if it's unsafe aluminum. Also what would be a good thing to soak it in to strengthen it without making it toxic, like olive oil was what I wanted to try but I don't know. I'll post pictures later.
Buy some screens and do some research on what will strengthen the wood and isnt toxic or harmful or flammable good luck
what do you think that they had before glass and metal pipes? it was wood and soapstone. but op just a piece of nug to plug the hole, air will go though but not pot
My glass pipe broke and while I wait to get a new one (don't have a credit card and headshop in our town closed) I wanted to make one that was natural and that I made with my own 2 hands. I named it Reginald because that's my grandpa's name (I made it with his tools) and plus I decided it would mainly be used for reg (haha) Although all I've smoked from it is dank xD http://http://imagehost.online-image-editor.com/images/274440xGmjUt63/2734743B6DYsEx5.jpg http://http://imagehost.online-image-editor.com/images/274642smmxET7X/274529w6UWcA6J.jpg http://file:///F:/Images/P10-25-11_...to sand it more so the actual pipe it smaller
