How to Make a Homemade Bong

Posted on by Brian Bernstein

If you enjoy smoking herb or tobacco, you may want to try making your own bong at home. A bong is a device that filters the smoke through water, making it smoother and cooler. You can make a bong with some cheap and basic supplies, such as plastic bottles, fruits, or household items. In this blog post, we will show you how to make three types of homemade bongs: a plastic bottle bong, a gravity bong, and a fruit bong.

Plastic Bottle Bong

A plastic bottle bong is one of the easiest and most common homemade bongs. You will need:

  • A plastic bottle of any size
  • A pen or a metal tube for the downstem
  • A bowl piece or some aluminum foil
  • A sharp tool to make holes
  • Water

Here are the steps to make a plastic bottle bong:

  1. Fill up the plastic bottle with water until it reaches about a quarter of the way.
  2. Poke a hole near the neck of the bottle to make the carb. This is the hole that you will cover with your finger when you smoke and release when you inhale. Make sure the hole is big enough for air to flow through, but not too big that you can’t cover it with your finger.
  3. Make another hole slightly above the waterline for the downstem. This is where you will insert the pen or the metal tube that will hold the bowl piece. Make the hole about the same width as the pen or tube.
  4. If you are using a pen, remove the ink and any other parts until you have a hollow tube. If you don’t have a bowl piece, you can make one by wrapping some aluminum foil around one end of the tube and poking some small holes in it.
  5. Push the open end of the downstem through the bottom hole you made. Angle it downward so that it is submerged in the water. The bowl piece should be facing upward on the outside of the bottle.
  6. Pack some herb or tobacco in the bowl piece and light it up. Cover the carb with your finger and inhale through the mouthpiece of the bottle. When you are ready to clear the smoke, release your finger from the carb and inhale sharply.

Gravity Bong

A gravity bong is another simple homemade bong that uses water pressure to pull the smoke into a large chamber. You will need:

  • A large plastic bottle (such as a 2-liter bottle)
  • A smaller plastic bottle (such as a 16-ounce bottle)
  • A bowl piece or some aluminum foil
  • A sharp tool to make holes
  • A bucket or a large container filled with water

Here are the steps to make a gravity bong:

  1. Cut off the bottom part of the smaller bottle and discard it.
  2. Cover the mouthpiece of the smaller bottle with some aluminum foil and poke some small holes in it to make a bowl piece. Alternatively, you can use a pre-made bowl piece if you have one.
  3. Cut off the top part of the larger bottle and discard it.
  4. Fill up the bucket or container with water and submerge the larger bottle in it.
  5. Pack some herb or tobacco in the bowl piece and place it on top of the smaller bottle.
  6. Hold the smaller bottle by its neck and light up the bowl piece. Slowly lift up the smaller bottle while keeping it submerged in water. This will create a vacuum that will draw the smoke into the bottle.
  7. When the smaller bottle is almost full of smoke, remove the bowl piece and put your mouth over the mouthpiece. Push down the smaller bottle while inhaling to force the smoke into your lungs.

Fruit Bong

A fruit bong is a fun and flavorful way to smoke herb or tobacco. You can use any fruit with a large chamber, such as a melon, a pineapple, or a coconut. You will need:

  • A fruit of your choice
  • A knife or a spoon to carve out the fruit
  • A pen or a metal tube for the downstem
  • A bowl piece or some aluminum foil
  • A sharp tool to make holes
  • Water (optional)

Here are the steps to make a fruit bong:

  1. Cut off the top of the fruit and scoop out the flesh to create a chamber and a lid. You can save the flesh for later or eat it as a snack.
  2. Cut a hole in the lid for the bowl piece and downstem. You can use the same method as the plastic bottle bong.
  3. Cut another hole in the side of the fruit for the carb. Make sure it is above the waterline if you are adding water to the fruit.
  4. If you want, you can add some water to the fruit chamber to make it more like a bong. Just don’t fill it too much or it will spill out.
  5. Insert the downstem and bowl piece into the lid and pack some herb or tobacco in it.
  6. Place the lid back on the fruit and light up the bowl piece. Cover the carb with your finger and inhale through the hole on top of the fruit. When you are ready to clear the smoke, release your finger from the carb and inhale sharply.

There you have it, three easy ways to make a homemade bong with items you can find around your house or at the grocery store. Remember to be careful when making holes and using fire, and always dispose of your homemade bongs properly when you are done with them. Enjoy your smoking session and have fun!
