Look what I found in my garage!

My wife and I were cleaning out our garage last Sunday and look what we found! We just bought the house last fall and it's got lots of old garage junk (oil, paint cans, shingles, etc...) that we hauled out. I moved a pile of boards from a back corner and couldn't believe my eyes.

An old G Graphics bong! Classic! The house I lived in back in college had a red one just like this! Huge score! :D

Yeah very nice....but I would give it a good thorough clean-up first before hitting it, just in case some nasty bacteria has been hiding out inside it.

Thanks, all! She's 24" of old school acrylic!

First thing I did (after dumping out some dead bugs) was soak it with alcohol and give it a scrubbing. I'll inspect it closely before we attempt to use it.

Cool find but...

I’m pretty sure you just ruined that bong.
If I recall correctly acrylic & alcohol don’t mix. Alcohol causes stress fractures in the acrylic.

Just this guy, ya know?

Acrylic is a huge family of plastics, some are weak to alcohol and some aren't. If he comes back to a leaking mess he knows which one it is :D

We fired her up this weekend!

Since we found her in the garage we thought it was fitting to have our first session with her in the garage. She only takes a small amount of water and then I filled her tube with ice cubes, like we used to do in college. We both had a couple bowls and then brought her inside for a couple more.

She hits big and full and easy. I smoked two bowls from her this morning and even without the added ice she's nice and smooth. I'm thrilled that we found her!

My original plan was to buy a nice glass piece to celebrate moving into our new home but now I don't have to. This is even better. :biggrin:

Wow, it's like artifact from past or something like that. I would happy if somebody present me such stuff.

I seen a story the other day that a child found an old Lynyrd Skynyrd (however it's spelled) cassette in the dirt somewhere....

He showed his parents and asked if it was a relic from the civil war? :biggrin:
