Curious about making your own smoking pipe?
Ever found yourself in a pinch without your smoking gear?
Missing your smoking gear can be frustrating.
We’ve got you covered with 10 creative methods and a few handy tips to make it easier.
Let’s dive in.
Before we explore the ways to craft a homemade pipe, keep these tips in mind:
Smart Tips for DIY Pipes:
Avoid Plastic: Plastic bowls can melt and release harmful toxins. Use metal or other materials for the bowl, even if the body of the pipe is plastic.
Choose Your Food Wisely: Fruits and vegetables make great pipes, but choose ones that are fresh and firm to avoid a mushy mess.
Use a Screen: To prevent ash from getting in your mouth, use a screen. Metal, glass, or brass, the choice is yours.
Let’s Build a Pipe:
1. Fruits and Vegetables
Start with an apple. It’s simple, tasty, and you can find one easily. Poke a hole for the bowl at the top, make another hole across the middle to meet the first, and then a third for airflow. Carve out a little bowl on top, and you’re set. This method works with many fruits and veggies!
2. Pen Pipe
Grab a pen with a metal tip, disassemble it, reverse the nib to form a V-shape bowl, and you’ve got a one-hitter.
3. The Steamroller
Use a tube, like a toilet paper roll, and make a hole for a makeshift bowl from aluminum foil. It’s a simple, effective way to smoke.
4. Metal Pipe
Visit a hardware store, grab some plumbing parts, and assemble a basic metal pipe. It’s not fancy, but it works.
5. Candy Pipe
Use soft candies like Starbursts. Mold them into a pipe shape, create a bowl on one end, and a mouthpiece on the other. It’s sweet and unique.
6. Soda Can Pipe
A classic DIY. Dent the side of a can for the bowl, poke holes, and create a mouthpiece. Simple and efficient.
7. Ice Block Pipe
For a cool hit, carve a pipe out of a block of ice. It’s a fun, if temporary, solution.
8. Bamboo Pipe
A piece of bamboo can become a great pipe. Seal one end, carve a bowl, and drill a mouthpiece on the other.
9. Baguette Pipe
Yes, a baguette. Drill a mouthpiece and a bowl at opposite ends. Use a metal bowl insert for best results.
10. Pringles Can Pipe
Similar to the steamroller but with a Pringles can. Sturdier and doesn’t require covering one end with your hand.
Now that you know how to make a homemade pipe, try these out and see which one you like best.
