alright, i got a couple bongs and a glass bowl myself, but my friend on the other hand only has papers and a tiny cigarette shaped 1-hitter. i felt bad that whenever i was with him if i didnt have a bong we were using that shit. so the other day i went down in my workshop and started fuckin around with all the stuff and i made a little wooden pipe for him. it has a cool shape and design to it and he flipped out, he loved it. we tried it out and it hits nice and it makes the smoke taste nice. so. i was at home again kinda bored and wonderin what to do. so i went back to the workshop and decided to make a little one for myself that i can keep in my pocket all the time and hide easily. i took 3 pieces of wood, each about 1/3inch thick and 5inches long, 2inches wide. i glued em all together and let em sit overnight. so now i had a block of wood with 3 different layers. i drew out a design on paper, glued it to the block and cut it out with a small band saw. i then drilled the bowl and a small hole going down from the bottom of the bowl. then another hole from the other end down until it met the small hole going to the bowl. from there on it was sanding it out, making finishing touches, and staining it with natural oil (no harmful chemicals, nice smell and look, tastes nicer too ). Tell me what ya think! pics
thats awesome i tried to make a homemade wooden piece but it sucked thats sick u should meake a bunch and sell them
haha ya i was thinkin about that. my high school is full of rich kids and stoners, i could prob sell a bunch of em for 15bucks each or something. not many kids here have the balls to just go to a headshop and get a piece .
Dude, that's really awesome. I almost didn't click this thread because I didn't want to see another tree branch pipe. But wow I'm impressed. I've been woodcarving/lathe turning since I was about 12 and lemme tell you, you have some natural talent. edit: +rep to you sir!
Im not gunna lie, i was expecting the usual shitty homemade wood piece, but that pipe is fucking sweet, you must have some mad wood working skills, nice job mang
yeah same as everyone else, i was expecting some shotty piece but that thing is ridic, if i saw that thing and you were selling em for 15 bucks i would totally grab one. + rep for the awesomeness
thats fuckin cool dude, i have a similar looking pipe layin around here somewhere that i made with nothing more than a drill with 1 bit a swiss army knife and 1 sheet of sand paper, we called it the klogg cause it looks like the wooden shoe, if i ever find it ill show it to you +rep
very nice man, plus rep you sir. what about the glue you used to hold the pieces together though? is it safe when its heated up?
i just used a basic wood glue, but i ive seen other wooden pipes with multiple layers. and its in such a small amount, you wouldnt be smoking any of it.
nicely done. My first piece was a homemade wooden creation, too. If it had looked as nice as that I might have hung on to it till now, but that ugly thing has been lost to the sands of time. +rep, good job
yeah a lot of kids don't want to got to head shops, i bet you could sell that at a high school easy, but really, nice work
