I created a bowl for Grav/Waterfall bongs 1

So, I don't smoke a lot of weed, or at least not like I used to a decade ago. My job makes it tough as I get drug tested. However, my wife recently got a medical card and I have decided to do so as well.
I guess in some way I am trying to relive my glory days (but legal weed is freaking awesome too), but to do so in an adulting way, I decided to machine a nice Grav/Waterfall bong bowl. My wife doesn't understand this, in fact she finds it juvenile. She's always getting fancy fucking tinctures and what not. Back when I was in school I was buying shitty fucking weed. Getting the most out of it was really important when living on like $400 a month. So grav bongs became my de facto smoke setup despite having a rather nice bong. I also love waterfalls, basically the same idea, just some how even worse.
Anyways, without further ado, here it is.






Pics are of the piece as it came off my machine. If anybody has any questions feel free to ask. I don't think it's particularly impressive, but it sure beats the aluminum foil and sink aerators I used in college.

Yes, the shiny bit is the part I made. It doesn't take too long to make, maybe like 20 minutes in total. Modeling it was pretty straight forward. The programming as usual is the time consuming part. I ended up making three, the first one I got a machine error. It's usable but it has a few aesthetic flaws. The second one I got in a rush and effed it all up. The third one went to plan, and it's the one you see here. The key was to have a drink and sit on the stool. Less is more. If I make more of them I will able to further clean up the surface finish through tweaking the program. The sides are just a bit rubby, so they could be better. The rest is pretty spot on.
I gave it a try last night after making this post. I took basically two rips out of it, off a single small bowl pack. It pulled a complete red cherry across the entire surface of the weed and filled the bottle with a thick off white smoke. I filled the bowl maybe about 1/3 up. After those two rips I was high as fuck, maybe the highest I've been in the last five years. It is indeed a rough hit, brings back memories (sheds tear), but holy fuck does it ever work.
