If there's something you can smoke as a cigarette but you don't have anything but a few cans of soda, you're in luck. You can still smoke as long as you put in the effort and do something like Mac Gyver did. Making a regular pipe or making a more complicated water pipe for smoking is not difficult. You can learn about the options after seeing Step 1.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Creating the Base Pipe
Step 1. Find an aluminum can that can be opened by pulling the ring out
You can use a regular 12-ounce can of soda or a larger can. Make sure the can is empty of soda and beer then clean the can with clean water. Let dry before continuing with the process.
Step 2. Look for needles, safety pins or other sharp objects
The next step is to make a hole in the center of the side of the can. A pencil or pen can also be an effective hole punching tool.
If you don't have anything available, you might be able to break the ring of the can in half and use the sharp end to make a few small holes
Step 3. Make a thumb-sized indentation on the side of the can
Since you will be placing the cigarette material on the other side of the hole you will be smoking, make a hole on the side opposite the mouth of the can. Use your thumb to press down and make not too deep an indentation.
Step 4. Make small holes
Use a needle, pin, or a pointed tool to make a pattern out of the holes at the bottom of the curve. The holes don't have to be big, but the more the better. Make a pattern like parallel lines.
Step 5. Make a big hole on the side
Choose a location that is most convenient for you to cover with your finger or thumb when you smoke, then use a sharpened pencil or pen to punch holes in the can.
Step 6. Remove the ring from the can
Step 7. Prepare the hood pipe by heating the smoky section and other adjacent sections
This way, you can vaporize the chemical used to coat the outside of the can before you light the pipe. You can also remove paint on the indentation and other adjacent areas. This way, you will get rid of most of the harmful substances that may evaporate when you smoke. You can use the tip of the hole punch you used, or sandpaper if you have one.
Step 8. Start smoking
To start smoking, place the tobacco or other smoking material in the groove, place your mouth in the drinking hole of the can, and cover the large hole in the side of the can with your thumb. Suck and the can will be full of smoke. Then open a hole in the side of the can when you're ready to smoke.
Step 9. You should understand the health risks
Heating and smoking aluminum is suspected to cause Alzheimer's disease and other neurological diseases. While it is true that it is difficult to heat aluminum to a sufficiently high evaporation point using only a gas lighter, this method is inefficient and should be avoided.
The basic principle of a pipe from a soda can can also be applied using a variety of other readily available items such as apples, potatoes, and other items that do not have the possibility of harmful side effects. Smoke it and pay for it yourself
Method 2 of 2: Making Water Pipes With Cans
Step 1. Gather the required materials
If you want to make a water pipe or bong pipe for smoking, you will need:
- Two 12-ounce cans
- Plaster
- Can opener
- Scissors
- Trumpet mouthpiece or funnel made of glass
- Water
Step 2. Cut the lid of the can
After cleaning and drying the two 340g cans, you can use a can opener to remove the top and bottom lids of one can and the top lid of the other. Use a can opener like you would open a can of soup. Then you will have one cylinder open at both ends and another without a top cap that will serve as the base.
Step 3. Bend into the sharp edges of the can with the two lids removed
Cover it with tape so you don't scratch these sharp edges. You will later put your mouth on this end.
Step 4. Make a hole in the side of the can that serves as the base
On the side of the can, make a hole large enough to fit the handle of the mouthpiece or whatever you'll be using to light the object you'll be smoking later.
Try and make sure you make the holes completely round. You can coat it by using a lot of plaster
Step 5. Fit the mouthpiece until it fits
Connect using plaster. Take the time to make a layer of plaster so that the funnel is snug and strong.
Step 6. Attach the cylinder to the top of the base can using tape
Glue the two cans with tape so that it becomes a complete water pipe.
Step 7. Fill with enough water so that the mouthpiece sinks slightly and you are ready to smoke
Step 8. Start smoking
To start smoking, fill the mouthpiece with whatever smoke you're about to inhale and inhale through the top of the can above. When the room is full of smoke, remove the mouthpiece when you want to inhale the smoke.
