![]() ![]() A January 1971 issue of the Marijuana Review also used the term. One of the earliest recorded uses of the word in the West is in the McFarland Thai-English Dictionary, published in 1944, which describes one of the meanings of bong in the Thai language as, "a bamboo waterpipe for smoking kancha, tree, hashish, or the hemp-plant". On bongs without such a hole, the bowl and/or the stem are removed to allow air from the hole that holds the stem.īongs have been in use by the Hmong in Laos and Thailand, as well all over Africa, for centuries. To get fresh air into the bong and harvest the last remaining smoke, a hole known as the "carburetor", "carb", "choke", "bink", "rush", "shotty", "kick hole", or simply "hole", somewhere on the lower part of the bong above water level, is first kept covered during the smoking process, then opened to allow the smoke to be drawn into the respiratory system. A bong may be constructed from any air- and water-tight vessel by adding a bowl and stem apparatus (or slide) which guides air downward to below water level whence it bubbles upward ("bubbler") during use. In construction and function, a bong is similar to a hookah, except smaller and especially more portable. In the bong shown in the photo, the smoke flows from the lower port on the left to the upper port on the right. ![]() Ignite the cannabis with a lighter, and take a few deep breaths, and always be prepared to remove it immediately in case you start choking.A bong with a circular carburation port in the front of the bowlĪ bong (also known as a water pipe) is a filtration device generally used for smoking cannabis, tobacco, or other herbal substances.Fill the bowl that is located on the side of the bong portion with dry herb.Once you achieve it, you will be able to make the bong bubble by just breathing in. Gently pull the mask over your face and move it around until you feel the same suction you would expect from a pair of goggles.Reattach the bong to the mask hole clockwise to tighten.Fill the bottom chamber of the bong between ½ and ¾ of the way will water.Unscrew the attached bong from the gas mask portion of the apparatus.Using a gas mask water bong is simple, but we will walk you through it just in case you have any questions. If you don’t feel that seal, it won’t smoke nearly as well which is why there are so many complaints about the cheaper versions. The best ones also have silicone around the outer edges of the face to maintain a good draw. ![]() Generally, a store-bought version will come equipped with a glass bong that is already attached to a gas mask with the hose removed. How to use a gas mask water bong (ready-made)Ī manufactured gas mask bong is going to be quite a bit different than the homemade one we instructed you on above. Slide the mask over your face and take the deepest inhale you can manage.Once it’s burning away, you can slide it back into the hole, and screw the lid back onto the open bottle tip. Though technically you can light it while it’s on your face, that isn’t always the most comfortable thing to do. Once you are satisfied with the fit of the joint, you can spark it up using a lighter, and take a couple of puffs to get it going.Roll a joint and fit one end of it snugly into the hole in the lid of the gas mask bong.Now you are done, and it’s time to learn how to use it!.Take a drilling tool, and make a small hole in the center of the bottle lid.If it pokes you, isn’t wide enough, or has some other problem you can slowly trim it down until it hugs the sides of your face and chin as closely as possible. The lid should line up close to your mouth, and the sides need to rest comfortably along your skin. Remove the lid if you haven't already and try to slide the plastic sleeve under your chin and around the sides of your face.Now take a marker and trim out a rectangle along the side of the bottle, leaving the curved end where the chamber narrows.If they are curved than you will need to trim them down more so that they don't scrape you face as you put it on. Once you are finished the edges of the open portion should be flat and not curved in. Now you will need to flip the bottle upside down, and completely remove the bottom of it along the edge that meets the sides.Wash out the pop bottle and remove any stickers or labels. ![]()
