To Screen or not to Screen?
    #9106557 -

So I was hitting up a bowl, and realized that I actually don't use a screen. I mean of course I knew I didn't use a screen, but I never thought of how different from most people I am for doing this. Most of my friends and people I know, use a screen whenever using something legit, such as a glass bubbler or bong, of course because the hole is big....and...waste not want not. :smirk:

So anyways I kinda like to share what I do, and maybe so how different I am from people.

I usually use my bubbler, and like almost all pieces the hole in the bowl is big and if you put normal sized pieces(grinded) it'll fall to the bottom. So I always have this little nug, that covers the whole hole and a little more, and I always put that on the hole, and then pack the rest of my bowl accordingly. This gives me the whole bowl to use without that extra space for the screen, and it let's me pack it tighter. With a screen it's kind of bouncy so you get more air coming in your bubbler than smoke.

Anyways, sorry if it's a random topic, but I'm sure there are many other methods people use, and I'm interested in hearing them. One of my friends actually uses stems at the bottom of the bowl.

Here's just a little poll to see comparitive results.
Do you use a screen in your bowl?

Nah...I don't like the idea of the screen blackening and me inhaling metal smoke.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

A 'good' screen shouldn't do that.
When I used to use screens I always ran a butane torch on them for a while to kind of take away that metallic taste.

It's still noticable though.
One other thing I hate about them is that the smoke tends to be hotter. :rolleyes:

they have glass screens. theres a few different types (daisies, jacks, meteors) but i suggest them for glass bongs, keeps alot of herb from falling in the water, keeps the water cleaner, they dont burn through and are reusable (mine last me months each), and they olny take a minute to clean.

Wow, a very important point I missed!

I actually wanted to get one of those at least to try it out, but my local headshops don't have those.

I should get around to ordering them online, when I'm less lazy and buisy.

They probably keep the original taste of my tabaco water pipe, for my TABACO USE ONLY. :tongue2:

Beware, of doing what I ALWAYS do. I forget the glass screen is in there and dump the ash in the trash, usually loosing the fucking screen.

I said fuck using screens cuz I always forget they're there anyway.

Hey, I mean, a lot of people think the topic is limited to what the main idea is, which in this case is whether to use screen them or not, and may feel like if they say something it better be about the main idea or question, or else keep your mouth shut, and it's good to have a good friendly reminder that were in a chill out forum where you can pretty much comment on anything as long as it's not completely off-topic.

'Ya feel me? :smile:
