I used screens in wooden and metal pipes and acrylic bongs. I never used a screen in a glass bong or glass pipe.

Do what psychomimetic said to clean screens.
 
I use glass screens in my bongs and always remove them when cleaning the bowl. Never gives me any problems. I never use a screen in pipes though. So far, I haven't had a problem with sucking ash in my mouth with my newest sherlock. The way the mouth piece is designed, so far it's been flawless at keeping the ash out.

All my stuff is glass, no wood or metal here.

Removing a tiny piece of metal, then putting another one in it's place once a week is too much for you?!

Going by this logic you'd never smoke joints, it'd be ridiculous having to roll one up every hour!

Not hating bro, your logics just...crap.

Lol I guess the way I view it is why go through all the trouble of buying new and replacing old ones for something that I don't necessarilly need. I mean if I end up pulling ash, I just won't pull as hard. I just wasn't sure if Im doing something wrong which is why that shit gets blocked up ALL the time.

God no I wouldn't roll a joint every hour. I got shit to do man, I just get blasted and go on with my day, that's why I can't have these blocked up screens holdin my ass up.

And trust me, I'm not lazy, but getting resin on ur fingers is a bitch sometimes. It gets all over ur clothes and let's everyone know youve been smoking. (I know, wash your hands)


I've also tried just leaving the screen in there and trying to smoke the resin right out of it, but it never seems to be worth it.
 
Screens are usually cheaper than rizzla. (where i'm from anyways)

Guess it's just a geographical thing, almost everyone I know in the UK uses a screen for bong/pipe smoking. Whereas you crazy americanos don't seem to agree with anything we do. :P

Though i'm with you on resin fingers sucking.
 
Well no screen will ever be in any of my bongs or pipes , but most of my friends have a mouthpiece screen that goes over the mouthpiece of the dry pieces, I like those way better than a screen in the bowl
 
I use a screen in all my peices makes cleaning easier (for me at least) and keeps ash
outa my mouth. A pack of 5 is like a nickle at my local tobaco shop so I'm a yank that
agrees with the brits on this one and I use the hell outa mine just iso dip um' or burn
um off simple as that.
 
it's called a plug nug people! just rip apart a nug thats at least 1.5x the diameter of the hole in your bowl where you pack it, then put any sort of shake or broken up bud on top of that. problem solved, just pull slightly less hard on the last few hits so you dont make that plug nug suck through and get entirely wasted. keep doing this and your piece will resinate more and more and soon the plug nugs you need will be smaller and smaller. screens are nasty, i already don't smoke blunts and i think joints are even a stretch to say that i'm ok with burning paper all day although i still do, i just can't seem to justify smoking metal EVERY single time you smoke. like when you were in like middle school and couldn't get a bowl/your parents found yours and threw one out, you make one out of tin foil a pen and a water bottle, anyone do that shit? neverrrrrrr again, and thats all i can think of anytime i see anyone wanting metal underneath my delicious dank ass bud. idk its like some n00b shit to me i guess to each their own i just cant see smoking metal being remotely healthy
 
Just wanna ask whats the routine for you people who don't use screens? Is this a situation where those ash catcher things come into play? My bongs the standard average single straight chamber, and can't imagine toking that with ash floating round in there x_x
 
Packing a cig with bud

Okay, so i just packed a cig with weed (1 g). Worked great and filled up the whole cig. Now, what should i do about the filter? I cut off 3/4 of it, should i be fine?
 
you might just want to cut the filter off completely and smoke it like a regular joint, at least I think that would work.

Is there a point to the filter?
 
Unfortunatley, i emptied out ALL the tobacco. If i cut it out i wont really have a mouth peice. Im already risking burning my moustache off as it is. I was thinking about putting a peice of cardboard instead of the filter, but i cant get the cotton out and i dont wanna risk losing this thing as its extremley difficult to pack.
 
I used to put cannabis into my smokes when I was in school to avoid detection. I found the cigarette papers burned too fast and ultimately not as good as a joint.
I would also take off the filter if possible. I used to just rip them off so that there was no damage and then put my own paper filter in.
 
Your on the right track just leave the small nub of filter in tact, it will hold the whole thing together and keep your spit off the fragile paper.

People claime the filter can absorb thc but I believe it is a claime without marit.
 
I tried leaving the whole filter on once, it definatley does reduce the high. When you reduce it though, the filter becomes "saturated" faster. Once its brown it dosent filter any more.
 
I've never noticed a difference in the high for "secret agent" joints (as we call them here) with the filter left on.

Stainless steel screens are completely inert. You're not inhaling noxious fumes like you would be with aluminum or some other metal. Besides, I like to keep my pieces clean. Letting a bunch of resin and gunk build up seems counter-productive to that point.
