This is brought to you in part by the nasa r0x0rs thread, and also a moderate craving for some pot (which I haven’t done in several months). So, my question is: what is the coolest bong/pipe/steam-roller/other that you have ever made?

My friends tell me that mine is the coolest bong ever, but you will have to pay attention because I suck at explaining things.

I got a 1.5 liter and a .75 liter (both dannon) water bottle, a few feet of .5” diameter clear tubing, and a hot glue gun.
The large water bottle is cut in half (horizontally) and the small water bottle is hot-glued (in an upright position) in the bottom of the large bottle. A length of tubing is placed through the cap of the small bottle and extends to the bottom of the inside of the bottle (this tubing also has a fair amount of extra protruding from the top) and is then glued in place. The inner bottle is filled about 1/2 full of water and two (adjacent) tubes are inserted in the sides about 3/4 of the way up on the inner bottle. These tubes extend to the bottom of the outside of the bottle and are secured in place (for aesthetic purposes you may want to spiral these tubes down). The top half of the larger bottle is then glued back in place with the tube from the (now) inner bottle protruding through its’ cap. The outer bottle is filled slightly over 1/2 of the way full with water and a tube is inserted in the side about 3/4 of the way up. A modified pipe is placed in the tube (slightly) extruding through the cap of the outer bottle and you suck through the tube sticking out the side of the bottle.

If I have managed to make any sense, then when you suck the outer side tube, the smoke will flow into the inner bong, fill, and then “overflow” into the outer bong. Before the bong is cleared you will see a bong that is half filled with water, and half smoke. In the center of this bong you will see a cylinder of smoke extending a few inches below the water level of the outer bong (this is the inner bong) the effect is quite nice.

I probably just managed to confuse everybody, but I would still like to hear about your favorite/coolest smoking device.

Yeah, you confused me. My favorite smoking device has got to be my handblown glass bong.

No acrylic shit here.

I tried to envision what you were trying to convey, but before long, it just looked like a twisted mass of jumble in my head. Some sort of demented carpentry experiment, fueled by Nazi occult tax appropriations.

My advice = post a pic sometime.

Favorite bong - one made from a four foot Italian Chianti bottle. However, since it's inception, it has suffered numerous moves and disasters (both natural and stupid human varieties), and it's stem is now only about 1.25 feet in length. It has a spherical base, half-dressed in an old fashion straw saddle, stamped with a miniature painting of Dante, it's namesake.
