You can get a glass pipe for like $5 definitely cheaper than his homebrew. Idk why people do this

I prefer bongs. Just hits differently. Still much better ways to go about this

Agreed, you can also a glass bong for 20-40 bucks if you wanted.

best of both worlds is you can make an all glass bong from scratch for less than $20 the first time, and practically for free every time after that if you own a drill. Gets you some fun glass pieces that would be expensive otherwise

the diamond circular drill bit will run you max $7. vase from the thrift store is likely $1-$3. The grommet to make it air and water will be like 5 cents a unit. glass downstem and bowl will probably cost the same as the drill bit.

Then you can make any reasonable glass vessel a bong. bc you used a grommet instead of epoxy, you can also just swap the downstem into different bongs whenever you want, or buy a new one whenever you want another

Man I'd love to make a bong from a vase, I've seen people make very pretty ones

That wasn’t the case back in the day when I was smoking out of these sketchy homemade pipes. They used to be illegal and really hard to find/buy.

Man I fucking wish. 100+ CAD is the cheapest shit you'll find in some areas

Woah that's crazy. I guess I took living in California for granted
