i had a hash pipe that was just a 3 inch section of brass pipe with a small elbow brass joint. Screw the elbow onto the pipe and place a screen in it. Harsh as hell but it did the trick. Didnt need a pair of steel crimpers to finish it either

My old roomate made a bong out of a high-lighter. It did the trick for a nice mini-bong.

Smoking through PVC, PEX or any white plastic is a bad idea.
The fumes from burning PVC can be deadly.

agreed, be careful with homemade bongs, there's a lot of stuff you don't want to be running your hot air through... Personally I make sure I always have a pack of papers on me wherever I go... 100 potential joints for only $1.25 :p

home made pipes out of plastic and the like are tacky. I know that if I was to pull out that pipe you have pictured and asked my friends to smoke they would probably turn it down. Just get some papers as mentioned above or a cheap glass pipe. If you have the money to buy pot, you can probably afford a $10 glass pipe. Why risk smoking plastic ??

How about some cancer in your THC?
Quote:
According to some medical studies, the plasticizers added to PVC may cause chronic conditions such as scleroderma, cholangiocarcinoma, angiosarcoma, brain cancer, and acrosteolysis. It is worth noting that PVC products have been widely used for many years without significant health effects being demonstrated.
Quote:
The environmentalist group Greenpeace has advocated the global phase-out of PVC because they claim dioxin is produced as a byproduct of vinyl chloride manufacture and from incineration of waste PVC in domestic garbage. The European Industry, however, asserts that is has improved production processes to minimize dioxin emissions.
If you don't plan to live very long, by all means - keep smoking out of that thing. (Not trying to be a dick - makeshift pipes are cool, but ones that make you dead aren't too fun.)

I'll admit, it's a cool idea, just not very practical, the tools required would suggest that you make enough to afford a $10 glass pipe or $1.25 for a pack of papers, but in an emergency situation it would work... I still wouldn't use, or suggest using this (just to be on the safe side) unless it's the only thing available...

Ya, I did.............. A good friend of mine has shroomed many times and smokes pot quite often. I dont think that has anything to do with the fact that he is a plumber. Its just a dumb idea to connect the two. Most of his friends on the job dont smoke pot for whatever reason. So ya, I took part, and said what I thought about the connection between plumbers and potheads.

My fault.
Didn't see the part about it being PEX...
I still wouldn't smoke out of it religiously, but I'll admit it's still pretty cool.

You also made it blatantly obviouse that you didn't actually read what the thread was about, or that you did and chose to ignore it and make an ass out of yourself anyways, good job...

i wouldnt smoke out of it, my guess is the smoke is hot enough when it travels thru the pex to leach some of the badchems into your toke. why is that my guess? well theres what, 3 inchs between the bottom of teh bowl and your lips. not a very long chamber to let the smoke cool down in. i wouldnt hit it, thats for sure.
im really surprised no one has hit on the plumbers dope joke yet...

Awesome analysis.
For most plumbers which probably make a decent living, I'm sure it's the $10 savings on glass pipes that allows them to smoke pot.
You know what else I came up with: People in the restaurant business do WAY more coke because they have easy access to straws.
I bet all the plumbers buy pot from the people working at the ziploc factory. Thats because people working at ziploc are notorius "pot sellers" because they get free baggies.

I figure it's just as risky carrying a glass piece in a little case/bag as it is carrying a piece of plastic/brass pipe. They are both going to smell like pot.
