Step-By-Step Guide

As I stated above, making a soda can pipe is a fast and effortless task, and the best thing is that you need materials you already have at home. The main element is, of course, a used soda can. The materials that you need are:

  • Empty soda can
  • Screwdriver
  • Sewing needle
  • Tin foil

Do not forget that the used and empty soda must be cleaned and dried. You can clean the can with warm water and dish soap if it is sticky. Be sure to thoroughly wash any soda and soap leftovers, and give them time to dry up completely. 

This guide is basic, and following these straightforward steps will prepare your soda can pipe in an instant. Therefore, let’s take a look at all the steps.

Step 1

With your thumb, make a notch in the can opposite the side you will be smoking. This indentation will be the place where you will put your weed. You are all set to push into the can, not too hard. 

Step 2

Now, it is time to make the holes. Use the sewing needle and poke small holes in the indentation. The more, the better. It would be best if you made a grate-like design with the needle. 

The holes shouldn’t be too big because your ground weed may fall into them. You can always use a sharp pencil if you don’t have a sewing needle. 

Step 3 

Next, poke a hole in the side of the can with the screwdriver. This puncture must be solid and small because it will serve as your carb. That’s why it is best to use a screwdriver, but again, if you haven’t got one at hand, you can use a pen.

Step 4

The soda can pipe is ready to use when you complete all these actions. Yet, I must tell you that it is recommended to heat the smoking sides of the can because they might be toxic once you start inhaling. 

So, better to be safe than sorry. Use a lighter and burn off the plastic and chemicals from the areas of the soda can that you will be using most directly. 

Step 5

Once you are done, you can put some weed in the notch, put your thumb on the hole and place your mouth on the can’s mouthpiece. When they can fill up with smoke, inhale and enjoy!

Still, this article wouldn’t be complete, and I would lie to you if I said that the can pipe is an entirely safe smoking alternative in which you can engage often. 

Soda can pipe is a last-minute method, and to keep yourself healthy and safe, you should use it when there’s no other way of smoking available to you or just when you want to experiment and try it. 

Because of the aluminum, BPA, and other chemicals, soda can pipes may be hazardous and toxic in the long run, and that’s why I don’t advise frequent usage. 

Therefore, if you enjoy various ways of smoking weed, it is time you invest in a proper glass pipe or bong and engage in a completely safe and healthy way of smoking the magic flower.

However, I hope you will listen to my advice and not regularly use the soda can pipe because, as you have learned, it has certain health risks you may want to avoid.

Nevertheless, the soda can pipe has been used for ages, and if you do it once in a while, you probably won’t harm your health. Let’s admit, we all have been desperate for smoke and have smoked from a can pipe once in a while. 

Plus, the whole DIY process is engaging and interesting, and it gives you satisfaction to use something you have made. If you do it with caution and do not overdo it, you can stay safe and enjoy an alternative to smoking weed.
