Usefelness of a broken piece

[Ason Unique]

Okay I have a glass bowl I broke not too long ago while cleaning it. It snapped into two at the stem, so I just super glued it together. The issue with it is that the holes in the stem are very tiny and it always gets clogged. I've been afraid to boil it because there's super glue holding it together. Its sealed and all, just can't reall hit through it because its clogged with rez.

What can I do with it?

boil then find a glass blower to sort it out

I recommend you walk to your closest heady shop and purchase a simple five dollar glass spoon, yer overthinking this. :D

What kind of superglue? If it was cyanoacrylate, just wash it in rubbing alcohol like you'd normally clean a bowl, being brief and gentle around the glue, should be no problem. Worst case, you reglue it. Actually, epoxy should be fine too, but i'm not sure i'd want to smoke out of something glued with epoxy.

Regardless, bowls are not too expensive, you can always just buy a new one.

throw it in a ziplok bag with rock salt and rubbing alcohol, shake it around and it'll eventually come out spotless

Yeah next time I come across a cheap bowl I'll try to buy one. Maybe even a small high quality 5 dollar one.

Haha, thanks for that bitter little ray of sunshine %)

Find a glassblower or just get a new piece. I wouldn't bother with glue.

did you really have to ask this? take 5 seconds to figure it out.....

If you haven't taken care of this already, rubbing alcohol + sea salt will do a good job, but because of glue, I think soaking it in a cup of rubbing alcohol overnight would be best. You can't be rough with it because even if the glue ends up dissolving and you have to re-glue it, you don't wanna accidentally crack anything since the glass is already weakened from being broken.

you should have epoxied it. as long as your flame doesn't directly touch the epoxy, you'd be fine bro. epoxy is awesome, very strong, usually quite heat tolerant.

I think the best thing your bowl has to offer is easier access to resin scrapeage.
