In Israel a lot of people like to take a glass pop bottle, 1 liter size, using a glass cutter, cut the bottle directly at midpoint so you have a top and a bottom.
You take a tiny bit of hash, we usually use half of a fingernail in size. Then we do it like this:
1) Taking a heat source, stove, campfire, and so on, heat a small skillet until it is throughly red hot.
2) Put the half a fingernail of hash on the skillet's centre
3) As soon as you see smoke being produced you put the top half of the bottle over it and leave it, thumb used as a carbueratour over the bottle's spout, moving your thumb as needed to keep the hash burning.
4) When you have enough you put your mouth on the spout, actually a great way to smoke.
Water pipes are used a lot, of course, but you see mainly old men doing that. Apples and even pears CAN be used, cupping but these 3 are only used by the truly desperate because it is so wasteful and the price is now high and availability of hash low since kids started aping Americans with hydroponically grown cannabis and boutique varieties.
I am actually in the hash capitol of SE Asia at the moment, Sagada on the Philippine island of Luzon. Here they don't know very much about consumption so they just smoke it in tobacco cigarettes as Israelis used to do until the end of the 1980s.Tourists make bongs of course but there isn't a whole lof plastic in this nation, I have seen a decent amount of wooden pipes.
I am content with hash oil this week though I will probablly have 2 kilos of cream black delivered in which case I will cut a couple of bottles.
