If you have something to smoke but no tools to do it, get a can of soda and you'll be in luck. In fact, using a method worthy of Mac Guyver, you can easily create a simple pipe or a more elaborate bong from which to smoke. Here are the different methods to follow.
Steps
Method 1 of 2: Making a Simple Pipe
Step 1. Get an aluminum can
One of the 33 cl ones is fine, as well as the half-liter ones. Make sure it is completely empty and wash it with clean water. Let it dry before proceeding.
Step 2. Take a needle, pin or other sharp object
You will need it to make small holes in the center on the side of the can. A pen or pencil can also be useful for this purpose.
If you don't have anything on hand, you could break the tab in half and use its sharp tip
Step 3. Shape the can, using your thumbs to create a kind of cavity
Make sure that this cavity, where you will put the smoking material, is aligned with the mouth of the can, which you will use to vacuum.
Step 4. Now make small holes
Use a needle, pin, or other piercing tool to make a series of holes in the space within the recess. The holes don't have to be big, but the more you make them the better. Create a figure in the shape of a brazier.
Step 5. Scrape off the paint present on the surface of the cavity and on the adjacent areas, so as to eliminate most of the potentially harmful material that, when smoking, would be vaporized
Again use a pointed object or, if available, sandpaper.
Step 6. Heat the area of the can you will be smoking from and the adjacent areas as well
This will evaporate the chemicals used to coat the inside of the can.
Step 7. Make a large enough hole in the side
Choose the spot that feels most natural to you to cover with your finger as you smoke, then use a sharp pencil or pen to pierce the can.
Step 8. You can now smoke
Put tobacco, or whatever you prefer to smoke, inside the cavity. Place your mouth against the mouth of the can, cover the hole you just created with your finger and use it as a "clutch". Vacuum until the can is full and remove your finger from the clutch when you are ready to inhale.
Step 9. Be aware of the health risks
It has been shown that heating and then inhaling aluminum can lead to Alzheimer's disease and other neurological diseases. As difficult as it is, with a simple lighter, to heat the aluminum to a temperature that allows it to vaporize, it is still better not to joke about it.
The principle behind the pipe made from a can also applies to other things widely available such as apples, potatoes, and other products that have no potentially harmful side effects. Smoke at your own risk
Method 2 of 2: Make a Bong with Two Cans
Step 1. Collect all the necessary material
This is what you will need:
- Two 33 cl cans
- Scotch tape
- Can opener
- Scissors
- Trumpet mouthpiece
- Waterfall
Step 2. Cut the ends of the cans
After washing and drying them, use the can opener to remove both ends from one of the cans, and only the top end from the other. Use the can opener the way you would normally open a soup packet, and remove any remaining protrusions with scissors. You should now have one cylinder without both ends and one without the top, which will act as a base.
Step 3. Make a hole in the can with the base still
In the side of the can, make a hole large enough to fit the mouthpiece mouthpiece, or whatever you want to use as a bowl. Help yourself with scissors, insert the mouthpiece and cover any remaining spaces with scotch tape.
Make sure the edges are held together with a generous amount of duct tape. The mouthpiece must adapt perfectly to the hole while remaining mobile so that it can be removed if necessary. Take your time to apply the layers of scotch tape in the best possible way
Step 4. Tape the can with no end over the can with the intact base
Join them with tape to create the entire body of the bong. Pour in enough water so that the mouthpiece of the mouthpiece is slightly submerged. You are now ready to smoke.
Step 5. Smoke
Fill the bowl with whatever you like and pull through the top opening of the can. Once the bong has filled with smoke, remove the mouthpiece to inhale.
