How to Make a DYI Pumpkin Bong Tutorial: Step-by-Step Guide for Under $30
Instructions:
- Choose Your Pumpkin: Select a ripe, sturdy pumpkin. A medium size is ideal for balance and stability. (Basic Pumpkin about $7)
- Carve the Top: Use your knife or carving tool to cut a circular opening at the top of the pumpkin. Make sure it’s large enough to easily scoop out the insides. Pro Tip: When carving the opening, make sure to cut the edges of the lid at a slight angle (like a wedge). This way, the lid will sit securely on top and won’t fall inside.
- Scoop It Out: Use the spoon to remove the seeds and stringy pulp from inside the pumpkin. You want a clean, hollow space for your bong.
- Create the Downstem Hole: Choose a side of the pumpkin to insert the downstem. Carefully carve a hole just below the top opening. The hole should be slightly smaller than the diameter of the downstem to ensure a snug fit.
- Insert the Downstem: Push the downstem into the hole you carved. It should angle down into the hollow space of the pumpkin, ensuring a tight seal. Pro Tip: Make sure your downstem is long enough and can reach below the waterline of your pumpkin (Basic Downstem $8)
- Create Mouth Piece Hole: On the opposite side of the downstem carefully carve a hole slightly smaller than the diameter of the Grav Crutch.
- Insert Mouthpiece: Push the glass side of the Grav Crutch into the hole to create a tight seal. (Grav Crutch $6)
- Add the Bowl: Just like any another bong, attach the glass-on-glass bowl or banger to the top of the downstem. Make sure it fits securely. Pro Tip: If you are dabbing or using a banger use a 45 degree banger instead of a 90 degree, it will make it way easier and comfortable to hit. (Basic Bowl $4)
- Fill with Water: Pour water into the pumpkin bong until it covers the end of the downstem (about an inch deep). This will help filter the smoke.
- Pack the Bowl: Load your favorite herb into the glass bowl, packing it gently.
- Light and Enjoy: Place your mouth over the silicone mouth piece of the Grav crutch, light the bowl, and inhale. Enjoy the smooth, seasonal hits!
Tips:
- Make sure you are using the same size downstem with your bowl or banger. If you have a 14mm downstem, you'll need a 14mm bowl or banger.
- Be careful when carving the pumpkin; always cut away from yourself.
- If you want to get fancy, you can decorate your pumpkin before making the bong or even etch in spooky designs! Just make sure not to puncture your pumpkin.
- Clean your pumpkin bong after each use to keep it fresh and ready for the next session.
- Reuse any of these glass pieces to make your own bong out of anything!
