Hi,

Does anyone know of a device I could attach to a Bong so that in the unfortunate event it is tipped over on a hard wood floor it won't break?
I was thinking I could get PVC pipe and have it sticking out of the base so it can't ever be tipped over.

I'm a bit clumsy and I don't want to break my new bong.
I tried googling it but couldn't find much.

I don't think there's anything you can do to stop glass from breaking if it hits a hard surface, but stopping it from even being able to tip is pretty clever.

wrap a fuckload of electrical tape around it and a string tied securely to your ceiling fan so if you ever drop it if just swings around

I was thinking a thick rubber donut around the mid section could cushion the fall if it tips, I'll bet a ton of electrical tape would be kind of the same.

Suspending it from a tether in the middle of my room would definitely work but that is a significant under taking.

i break everything so i dont really buy glass anymore. when smoking through water i mostly use a glass bowl stem connected to 1/2" tubing into and back out a mason jar. its cool cause you can pull the bowl out and hookup concentrate pens also

Stick it in a lidless tupperware container when you put it down, so if you knock it over, it'll just hit the side. also: why are you smoking on the floor

Could you make some sort of bong cozy? You really only need the top and the heating part exposed, right?

I bought a Volcano when I was a broke college kid and it was real dumb at the time but a decade+ later and it's still going strong. I just use oven-safe turkey bags as replacements when they start getting gross. The whole thing is over 500 dollars but it's as clean burning as propane, you can save the vaped weed to cook with and it's nice to have a bag hanging around to smoke whenever you want. If you dropped a bag and shattered it I would be really impressed OP

Back in my smoking days I preferred metal pipes because they couldn't break, but all my peers hated them for some reason and they could never give an adequate reason why.

I bought an E-nano recently, much cheaper and simpler than a Volcano and it has a lovely wood finish. I also have an Arizer Go. Vapes 4 life muthafukkka

My room doesn't have table to put the bong on.
Well, it does but the table is in my closet because I got an oculus and so I rearranged things to maximize space for beat saber.

I think I could get some bulky adhesives from home depot to put on the bottom.
Maybe if I glued the middle to a big tupperware bowl it would just bob around?

My bong has a diamond shaped bottom and two kinks in the neck so it rests on its side like a ship in a bottle without spilling. My advice is to get a bong this cool and never worry about tipping again.
