MAKE A GRAVITY BONG | Fifth Ave Green House

Gravity bongs are a fun and easy take on the classic smoking style.

Whether you prefer to smoke bongs, blunt hand pipes, or vapes, making a gravity bong is a fun way to combine creative craft and potent hits. Gravity bongs can be made up of a few everyday household items like empty soda bottles and buckets.

But in modern times we’ve seen some modern takes and upgrades that mimic the classic homemade gravity bong. But one of the best things about doing it yourself is that immense sense of achievement after you’ve made something fully functional and can use it successfully once it’s done!

Tools required to make a gravity bong

The basic gravity bong usually consists of two plastic bottles, a head, and some water. Here are some basic things to make a simple homemade gravity bong:

· 1 gallon water bottle

· A 2 liter soda bottle

· Scissors

· A sharp object such as a knife or cutter

· Water

· A bong head

Most of these items can be easily replaced if you don’t have the exact bottle, and there isn’t a very strict formula for the size and measurements of these items. One of the fun aspects of this experiment is the creativity in the part choices, especially if it is a temporary replacement or a last resort for an accidental late night repair. So it’s time to get you MacGyver.

How do you make a gravity bong?

Learning to make a gravity bong is easy when you follow our simple, beginner-friendly steps.

There are many benefits to making your gravity bong, such as adapting the size and even the style of your piece if you are creative. Gravity bongs are the perfect smoking option for anyone looking for a powerful hit every time they inhale

Step 1: make the base

First of all, the bottles must be empty and clean. The larger 1 gallon bottle is used as the base, so the top third must be cut off completely.

Only the bottom two thirds of the bottle are left after cutting. Make sure it is shorter than the soda bottle when you cut it. The top of the bottle can be thrown away. If there are any sharp pieces of plastic after you cut the bottle, cut them away or use tape to cover the sharp edges.

Step 2: make the chamber

With the smaller bottle, in this case the 2-liter soda bottle, you always have to cut off the bottom of the bottle. Therefore, the bottom third of the soda bottle should be cut off and thrown away. What remains is the top of the soda bottle with the lid. Make sure it is taller than the 1 gallon base bottle.

Step 3: make the bowl piece

When I was a student, we were creative and used aluminum foil or found other ways to make the flower bowl. While it can be creative and fun on occasion, we recommend using a glass herb bowl and drilling a small hole in the beverage cap that it can be easily tucked into.

If you don’t have a drill bit, you can also do so by carefully taking a knife and drilling a hole in the top of the soda bottle cap. The headpiece should fit snugly against the bottle cap, so carefully poke it deeper and wider into the bottle cap until the puncture holes are snug against the headpiece. It takes patience, but the better the cut here, the better the bowl will work.

Step 4: how to set it up

Your homemade gravity bong is almost ready; Just pour water into the base which should be the larger water bottle. Fill the base about two-thirds full with water, but make sure it is at your preferred tension level. Put the soda bottle (with the bottom cut off) in the bottom. The top of a soda bottle with a flower bowl should be above the water level. The lid is screwed on (but not too tight) and the bowl is inserted into the lid.

Step 5: how to use it

After setting up, simply pack the bowl and light it. The soda bottle begins to fill with smoke. When it gets full, lift up the soda bottle which will attract the burning herb and increase the smoke in the soda bottle.

The bottom lip of the soda bottle should stay below the level of the water and trap all of the beautiful smoke in the bottle.

Once the chamber is filled with smoke, unscrew the cap with the flower bowl in it. You may want to quickly cover the opening with your hand to prevent too much smoke from escaping when you put the cap aside.

Then, take your hand away and wrap your mouth around the top of the soda bottle. Gently squeeze the soda bottle into the 1 gallon base bottle and inhale. When you lower the soda bottle, the water will push the smoke out and make it easier to inhale. Don’t worry if you can’t inhale all of the smoke at once; Gravity bongs are great for sharing.

Making gravity bongs is fun and ultimately pays off well, which makes them a great activity for lazy Sundays or parties. You may need a few tries to get the water level right initially, but it’s a classic choice when there isn’t anything else to use.
