My first lightbulb pipe!

Alright, so here's what it looks like together. It's a light bulb, 2 straws, some electrical tape, & a toothbrush container. Not too shabby eh? MacGyver must be a relative of mine. :D I haven't tried it with DMT yet, but it appears to be functioning correctly. Eventually I might add another bulb and make it a bong type device. :)

Here are the two pieces individually.

And alas, a picture of it with a simple 2 liter soda cap atop of it. The electrical tape with the cap provides an airtight seal. Which may offer the opportunity for a freeze precipitation container. Though admittedly, I haven't done too much research on how it is done. I would hate for it to break in the freezer or something homosexual like that. I'll do some stress tests before I use real DMT. That light bulb glass is very thin! But it takes the lighter pretty well, so I don't think freezing it will be too big of an issue. I'm more worried about water expansion. But we'll see after I do some more research! :D

This is how SWIM started out, and he hated it...total waste of spice. SWIM's used many methods (all variations of "The Machine") that have all worked rather well since then, but this is what he uses now that works incredibly well: The Mini-Machine Bubbler Stem - DMT-Nexus Wiki

It's much simpler than a bulb and works a million times better. Definitely use a bubbler, whether improvised or not. The glass of this piece doesn't heat up much near the base if used properly, and SWIM regularly handles it and cools it down carefully by hand while in hyperspace, so it would be easily adaptable to all manner of improvised bubblers.
 
SWIM seconds that. He considers the 250-300 mg he smoked in a bulb wasted as well.

Not to say it isn't an awesome looking pipe, but SWIM's simpler machine designs produce a good 3-5 times more effective vapor and 10x easier too.

This is swim's pipe and he has had NO PROBLEM breaking through. He actually went too far last night, although he isn't put off of the spice, it was just too much :p

Here's a piture of SWIM's

You could use a lightbulb too, but a thicker one would be advised. Some of the Halogen ones might be good. SWIM has used a tiny 7W but it is a little too small.

How SWIM puts a hole in his is simple: Hold firmly agains a flat wall and use any pen and tap lightly first then harder until it cracks. Has worked 100% for swim.

Pop a bit of a copper kitchen scrubber (make sure to burn off the polish) SWIM makes a mini-bowl in the top of the ball so he melts it from the bottom and tokes while he melts it to make sure none escapes.
Then he turns the pipe around and puts the flame 2-3 inches below where the spice melted into and watches the magic vapor stream into his lungs and BAM!!!

I assure you the machine is worth it, even if it sounds complicated. Never a miss-fire!
 
Nice, q21q21! Are the edges where SWIY broke the hole sharp, at all? If they are, you can use a butane torch to dull them very easily. The same method can be used to seal up any cracks if they develop, as well. SWIM's not sure why he used to lament about not being able to find Hennessy bottles locally or not being very good at putting holes in bottles when there are so many simple alternatives.
 
I definitely agree with everyone else. The light bulb method nearly wasted 300mg of Dmt for me. One scavenged the wasted insides and scraped what recrystallized. And smoked out of a bong. MUCH BETTER.
 
Well, I've only tried my pipe so far, but I think my bulb can work. I'll probably be using bong next.
