Ninjalex Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I recently made my own hookah and it was alright, but the pull sucked and it was very unstable. I made this new one out of an apple juice bottle and it works amazing now. This smokes just as good as some of the hookahs I've had at the local lounges.Picture is with AF double apple in the head, juice, popsicle, ice, and apple in the base.

teq Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 While I doubt this is anywhere near a permanent solution, just keep in mind, the plastic will deteriorate over time and you'll start to inhale the remnants.The chamber looks nicely full -- you should try a milk jug next .

mj_b90 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Haha I might have to make a tray like that for my stupid piece of shit pumpkin, one side of the tray on that thing is narrower than the width of a coal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjalex Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) Haha, thanks guys. The tray was made out of the box that our weak noob mistake purchased pumpkin came out of. We actually made this because our impulse bought pumpkin was a miserable joke. The tray actually works and I have had people bump full coals on it and surprisingly the cardboard didn't burn through The stem is made out of some decently thick plastic and the top is wrapped in electrical tape. It hasn't melted from the heat of the bowl yet, only warped a tiny tiny bit after about 15 sessions. I put more tape and it should help. If it does melt then I have a lot more of that plastic left over.Clean up takes roughly 1 minute with two people helping, which is a huge plus.

I cut a small hole in the bottle towards the top and used a plastic hose connector thing I found at home depot for about 50 cents. I wrapped it in electrical tape and jammed it in there permanently and sealed it off. I just have to connect the hose to the other end of the plastic connector thing.I hope that kinda explained it. I'll get a few more pictures up tonight. We are trying AF double apple with apples, oranges, and a banana in the base. Wish me luck LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voski Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Oh in the picture it sort of looks like you used heat to like melt the plastic together. But I can see that its tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjalex Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 Since my last post I have made a more reliable tray, made a coke can wind cover, and also made a 20 oz portable hookah that makes clouds as big as the large hookahs as the local bar. This should be perfect for camping. I made the wind cover on the portable hookah so that you could turn it upside down and the coals still wont spill. I cut a can in half and the top and bottom can be pressed together to make a nice tight seal. This also helps save some coals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
