ive made a great many homemade bongs, and ive really been doing it quite often lately. so, to keep track of the madness, i made this thread! enjoy first up, pill bottle ice bong w/ a three arm diffused perc here with a larger, two arm perc [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jf0RQHIYz4w]YouTube - Nate hittin the Mystery Machine (homemade perculator/ice catcher bong)[/ame] i used bent BIC pens for the percs, bendy straws irk me. the bowl is foil, and functions as a slide (rather than using a carb) alice, the POM minibong and the pedestal percd (lol) GB [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-elqSP8RVc]YouTube - Russ on the 3 liter gravity bong w/ a chubbler[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtzLV0XKGR4]YouTube - Nate taking a hit out of a 3 liter Gravity Bong[/ame] as you can see, the GB features a foil slide, and has a diffused chubbler thats all for now, more will be coming peace
Rockin' stuff brother. I remember seeing the GB before, loved the perc on it. Been looking for some of those POM bottles, but no luck. I was thinking... POM>Perc-empty bottle-perc<POM if that makes any since... but yeah, good stuff man.
Diffused POM icebong w/ a circulator made from a blunt tube [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91GYF1acu4s]YouTube - Russ on the POM bong w/ a circulator[/ame]
if you lose the foil youre golden... that shit kills, literally, the foil burns and goes into your lungs and never cmes out.
No, lol, that foil does not burn hot enough to vaporize or liquefy the metal. The only harm would come from the scraping of the bowl to get the tar or ash out. This could make shards of aluminum that could be sucked in. But because of the water, that is unlikely.
have you ever held a piece of aluminum foil to a flame? the fragile state of the paper thin aluminum means that it does not have to vaporize or liquify to become fragmented, and in that state the mere force of inhalation would cause the particles to dislodge, and some aluminum particles are small enough to be carried along with the smoke into the lungs. if you or the original poster wish to risk that, go right ahead, i dont dictate others actions, but i myself will never advocate the use of aluminum foil, aluminum soft drink cans or pvc in any homemade device in which they come into contact with a flame and/or the smoke.
Holy shit dude. Does that Russ kid have a youtube channel that's just him and his boys smoking? I think I've seen that dude before.
please dont tell me youre trying to say microscopic particles of metal is not harmful to your lungs? youre dilusional if you think that doesnt affect you over time...
let me be clear that i am aware of the dangers of foil. i just dont really care i plan on getting a glass downstem and bowl soon, howver in the meantime im not too worried. aluminum foil isnt that bad for you, and id be willing to bet that cigarettes kill me first i can respect that, however, i chain smoke newports and/or black n milds, so if i was worried about my lungs, id be more worried about all the radioactive shit thats actually a trick of the light, the pom bong had been built about half an hour before the video was put online that foil bowl, however, has seen a good amount of use, infact its been on all my newer homemades. lol i am "that russ kid." coolestpyro is my channel name
A better option, go to your local headshop, buy a slide. Or if you wanna stick to home-made go to a music store and pick up a trumpet mouth piece. It usually fits perfectly! =] Sterilize the trumpet mouthpeice after every use though.
