What to do with used whippet cans From: an241473@anon.penet.fi (The Lord) Date: 1995/08/26 MessageID: 010312Z26081995@anon.penet.fi#1/1 x-anonymously-to: alt.drugs organization: Anonymous forwarding service reply-to: an241473@anon.penet.fi newsgroups: alt.drugs One day I was sitting around looking at my used nitrous canisters when I got an idea. A pipe! After using them for making a bunch of whipped cream I first drilled out the tips to improve air flow. A power drill and vise works great. I use 2 cans per pipe. After drilling I hacksaw one where the body starts tapering to the tip. This piece becomes the bowl. The other can becomes the body. I use a hammer and nail to put a small dent near the end. The dent makes it much easier to start the drill hole. I drill in 2 stages, first a small bit to get started, and when I have a large dent I switch to the big bit. I then insert the tip of the bowl into the hole using a hammer and epoxy to get a tight fit. For a screen I use metal hardware screen cut to a 3/4" square then the corners folded to make a teardrop. The point of the teardrop goes down the hole in the bowl then I use a stick to make the bulb of the screen fit the bowl. If you ram it down too far it will clog quickly. You now have a a cheap, effective, sturdy, thumbsized pipe.
