How to build a Hot-Knife Bong

Time for a little controversy? I guess we'll see.

I like hot-knives, they are my favorite way of consuming a certain green, questionable substance. hot-knives are super efficient and they definitely get the job done. That said, a lot of people find them to be very harsh. The hot-knife bong is my way of getting around that particular problem.
In the past I've used several different designs, but this one seems to work the best over all.

*disclaimer of sorts*
Some people make take offense to the fact that this device is pretty clearly drug paraphernalia, however I'm not saying you have to make one, and I'm not telling people they should do drugs or even how to. If you're interested in this instructable then odds are probably already smoke pot. If you dont then for the love of good don't start like this. Better yet don't start. Then again, it's your body so whatever you do or don't to it's all up to you and it's not my place to say.

Step 1 Stuff you will need

To build one of these you will need these supplies, or some variant of them.

-a length of wire, I used 14gauge fence wire, but a coat hanger should work just as well.
-A jar with an thick, air tight lid. this one has a cork in it, in the past I've had success with plugs made from Sculpy as well.
-about 4 or 5 feet of surgical tubing.
-4 to 6 inches of 1/4 inch vinyl tubing or equivalent.
-a drill and 3/8" drill bit
-3/8" tubing, i use refill tubes from the plumbing section of the hardware store.
-a hacksaw

Not pictured
-a glass bow (preferably with a short stem)
-dish detergent
That's it.

Nice work, Kris! Having the product in question in my home, I must say it most certainly does an excellent job. My only suggestion, however, would be to use a rubber bung instead of a cork stopper, as the water will collect in the cork and make it nasty with time. Of course you could always just be less lazy than I am and drain the water after use. *shrug*

yep, or you could seal the cork with some rubber cement or some such, or i could have been less lazy and made a sculpy bung instead of using the cork.
