makeshift masterpieces

Being a typical stoner, I've made a few makeshift bowls in my day. In fact, I've become quite good at it too. Here are some pictures of my creations:

http://www.morphedmedia.com/tdn/view...d=060903PM.jpg
Name: Betty (named while watching Kung Pow stoned off my ass)
Description: This is my first piece, but still one of my favorites. Whats special about this one is that I built and placed a spring loaded cap at the base of the stem that keeps water or air from entering the bowl throught the stem and thus rendering the pot unsmokable (a common problem among the half-retarded children I hang out with).
Materials: Pill bottle, pen tube, plastic bottle cap, marine caulk, window screen

Name: Big Black (figure it out)
Description: This is my latest piece, and let me tell you, it hits like a motherfucker. I made the bowl (which fits about 2 grams in a pack) removable, forming a carb about 1.5 cm in diameter. Essentially this is the same carb system as most bongs, but actually much better. To sum it all up in one word... painful.
Materials: Water bottle, assorted alternator parts, silicone adhesive, window screen

Name: The Vacuum Bong (no other formal name)
Description: This thing is a strange and purely experimental creation of mine. A model airplane fan at the base of the stem sucks smoke into a one gallon container. An extra little bonus is that when idle the fan still keeps the bowl burning (which saves a lot of time with the lighter). Though it works just like I originally planned it should, I barely ever use this one. Im not sure why.
Materials: 1 gal. container, pen tube, plastic bottle cap, marine caulk, window screen, bell wire, power switch, model airplane fan, sheet acrylic

Any comments?

I think adding moving parts to your smoking devices is a little too dangerous for me, although its a pretty cool idea. I recommend springing for the 40 bucks and buying some glass. Besides, nothing beats Ed.

Ed's dead
it's said he was led
rather, Ed bled.
we ducked the fed
and then fled.

i just made a bong out of 4 pill bottles (was gonna be 5 until one broke in the process) and the bottom of a glass oil candle.... it cool because the glass magnifies the water and the bubbles... and its surprisingly sturdy.... im about to go try it out...

my favorite one of yours is the milk jug one... cause its so innovative... but that bowl described in the first one sounds cool...
