haha you didn't even tighten it up. Fuckit. I used to make a tin foil pipe that'd withstand the apocalypse .
I don't miss coughing up grey loogies though
My problem was I always made the bowl too thin to stand the heat of a flame (tin or aluminum foil bowlpiece for a bong). Fuckin' thing would incinerate on the second or third hit. Worst part was that the burning foil didn't change color or anything-- it went from shiny silver to a dull gray, so it's really easy to not notice it burning until you've got a lungful of metal. Then one day I read some shit about smoking out of foil can cause lockjaw and I never thought about doing it again.
Works in a pinch, though, there's no denying that.
