Every point in science says it wont explode, every single law of physics says it wont explode. Its impossible.
Its not gonna crack, and its not gonna explode.
Every point in science? 8)
You are clearly not familiar with science
As for the nitrous bong, it works, it hasnt exploded, nor can i see it happening since its not airtight. This is what i dont understand with you people.
If its not airtight then you're likely just wasting nitrous/smoke.
regardless, you're playing with pressures and glass. Its just not smart.
What would be MUCH safer is if you cracked a nang into a balloon, then attached that to the bong instead of cracking the nitrous directly into the bong.
Your talking about a danger right? of my cracker/bong exploding?
doing drugs is probably more dangerous....hypoxia ring a bell?
And yes sir, i am doing it the safest possible way and i acknowlegde the dangers.
Exploding glass or well-below-freezing gas to the face is a bit more dangerous than any hypoxia you could induce with nitrous. The only feasible way to induce hypoxia would be to choke on a balloon, its simply not a major risk unless you're using a tank. Or if you nang in a cupboard.
The be honest, I personally believe my cracker is better than yours. Its just easier to use and from standpoint - safer. If you want i will make one for you and send it too you, if you cover build costs of $15. (no prejudice or insult intended here)
Given the way you claim your design is 'The Best Nitrous Oxide Invention In History', its obvious you think its better. You are wrong.
You're design is pretty much the standard cracker design, only using inferior materials (ie PVC). Believe what you want, it doesnt change whats true
![:\](https://bluelight.org/xf/BL_Images/Orig_Emoji/wrygrin.gif "wry grin :\")
and just to re-clarify, this doesnt need plumbers tape.
The seals are air-tight and the pvc was built to with stand 1200PSI.
As i said before, its not about the pressure, its about the temperature.
A plastic cracker will likely work for quite a while. but when it fails, there wont be much (if any) warning, its will just fail.
When you twist the cracker in to puncture the bulbs, you put stress on the cracker. It will be the same stresses every time and they'll act in the same places. There will be planes within the material that are repeatedly being subjected to shearing. This is unavoidable, it'll happen with any design, any material. The repeated, cyclic loading leads to material fatigue, like when you bend a paperclip over and over eventually it will break, even though you never put in enough force to shear the metal.
In ductile materials, its not so much of a problem. the material need to be worked more before it will fail (and there'll usually be some warning signs). Try it with a brittle material, it will just break. Little to no warning.
Now, plastics are normally ductile materials
at room temperature. Cool them down and you now have quite a brittle material.
On top of the repeated loading, theres the repeated, cyclic temperature load. You guessed it, that adds to the situation. With material fatigue you will get failure at far below the yield strength of a material
A plastic cracker wont fail immediately, but it will fail. I'm not saying a brass one wont fail, but you're looking at orders of magnitude longer before it does.
From the way you keep saying how fantastic your design and asking to have it stickied is its clear you've got pretty sizable ego so you probably wont take anything i've said on board. Thats fine, i dont really care.
To everyone else: don't just take my word for it, do some reading, ask/look around. You'll find that the consensus is brass = good....... aluminium & plastic = bad
