Alright guys I'm pretty blazed and I don't know if this is the correct section but just bare with me, I was getting kind of inventive today and I made a hookah, Its not all to fancy but I honestly think its pretty cool.

Onto the guide!

Materials you'll need
- Chamber (This can be anything a plastic bottle, Jar, In my case I used an old easter egg case)
- A hose(s) (I used some hose I picked up at walmart for bike pumps but you can use anything like garden hose)
- Hot glue gun (Gorilla glue also works fine since its heat proof but I don't recommend Super glue) [You can substitue glue out for tape if you want but only electrical or Duct tape
- Stem (In my case I used a gutted tire pressure gauge but an emptied mechanical pencil/pen works fine also)
- Bowl (I used a socket that was 7/16 but anything that fits your stem will work doesn't have to be exact)
- Water (duh...)
- Screen (This can be pretty much anything from stopping ashes from entering You can use I used a screen from under a sink faucet you can use steel wool. AVOID TIN FOIL AT ALL COST ONLY USE AS A LAST RESORT


-----------------------------------------------------------
STEP 1: HOLES

- Depending on what type of chamber, and how many hoses you are using the holes can differ, But you MUST have 2. 1: For the bowl and stem and the other for the hose attachment

- Measure or estimate the width of the Stem and hose and cut out your whole accordingly I used a knife and smoothed out the edges with a razor blade you want to try and get this as accurate as possible so its less glue you must use to seal it.

- Seal ANY holes that you wont be using, In mine I had 2 tiny holes at the bottom that I sealed with hot glue.
------------------------------------------------------------

STEP 2: ASSEMBLY

- Take the stem you have and attach it to the bowl (Probably a socket)

- Make sure they fit if they don't exactly fit thats fine just make it as best as possible

- Seal the bowl and stem with the hot glue at the base of the socket where they both connect

- Take your screen and shove it into the bowl or if you're using steel wool shove it into the stem.

- Place the bowl and stem in the assigned hole and seal around it with glue or tape (Gum will work also but as a last resort) so that the only air that can get threw is via the bowl threw the stem

- Once you seal the bowl and stem take your hose and insert it into the other hole(s) (no pun intended ;)) be careful that you dont melt the hose with the hot glue gun so keep the metal tip away from it gum would actually be safer if you are afraid of it burning a hole threw.

- now add water to it and you are done! Easy as that!

- MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS SEALED for the best results.


Enjoy!!!!

Thanks bro, I'll definately make more of these if people are interested. I have a real hookah but It's kind of cool to make your own for shits and giggles when smoking with people sometimes to be like "Look at this" :)
