I learned from my best friend, he spent about a year strictly smoking out of gravity bongs and has almost perfected his use of the gravity. Ill also explain good techniques
firstly here are the items you will need:
Bottle- Go look for the biggest fucking bottle you can find. anything works but i prefer mine to be a round shape like a coke bottle, just makes a better flow of smoke when your taking a hit. what i use the biggest bottled brand of pine sol.
Socket: go to your local hardware store and find a socket for a socket wrench. try to find a deep socket thats around 3/4inch wide(its length should roughly be around 3 inches.) Its better to have a bowl for a gravity bong long than wide because it allows there to equal airflow as well as a bigger cherry. Your gunna need to make sure u got the right size socket so PLEASE READ THE WHOLE THING BEFORE YOU GO GET YOUR THINGS.
Purified water bottle cap: Ok you know those big blue water jugs that you put in a water dispenser upside down? down below i have a picture of it if you don't know what I'm talking about. Well your local grocery store should supply them, i know that there is a different sized one and its got the same dimensions as the normal one except its just shorter (kinda like a chode) you can get that to if the cap size is the same as the bigger bottle. What you need is the cap. i think it makes it easier when your taking the bowl off and putting it on, also its easier to attach the bowl to. I recomend you get this first, so when you go looking for a socket you have this handy when your looking for a socket that will be the right width so it can fit in it. HEED OF WARNING! DONT USE THIS AS YOUR BOTTLE, THIS BOTTLE IS FAR TO LARGE FOR LUNG CONTENT AND WASTES YOUR BUD I LEARNED THIS THE HARD WAY
Filter: go to your local head shop and buy a few filter screens
Bucket: You need a bucket or anything that you can place your entire bottle in, and can hold water. it is important that the bucket is bigger than the bottle, this minimizes spillage and can allow the smoke to condense much more. I used a trash can. You may need to to some work on this later to make it more comfortable to take hits.
Here are pictures of items i used, u can use this to compare if you cant find the exact same one.

Now that you have your items ill take you step by step on making it and reasons why the techniques are better for getting the best out of your bud. Also please read each step before you start it!
STEP 1:
first take the bottle you have chosen to use and get a pair of scissors. Take a permanent marker and draw a ling around the bottom of the bottle, you want to make it as low as possible because you are going to use this as a guide when you cut your bottle. The reason you want to make it as low as possible is because you want to save as much space in the bottle so there can me more smoke. The Blue line is were the water should reach, this is important because you want as little space for air when you light your bowl so the smoke condenses more, ill explain what all that is later on.
STEP 2:
Take the water jug and remove the cap from it, You should notice that the cap as a hole in the middle. flip the cap upside down and cut the excess part off, but sill leave about a half inch left, you will see why on the next step. here is a picture to better explain:
STEP 3: Now take the Socket and the cap and shove the socket through the hole, it should fit nice and tight and it might take a while to get it on. After that you can throw in the screens and BAM! you got your bowl.
in the end it should kinda look like this:
STEP 4: Take the bowl and put it on the bottle, because its a water jug cap that you used it should be that you don't need to screw it on and off. It should fit perfectly if not close to perfect on your bottle if you chose a big one.
STEP 5: ok now your bucket, here i am going to explain how to optimize your use of the bucket to get the best out of your bud. this picture better explains what to do.
YAY Now you got your own Gravity bong!
Tips on use:
Please be familiar on how to use a gravity bong before you use it, this is meant for people that have experience with its use. But i will try to explain how to use it the best i can. Also i recommend to have a friend with you, it makes it easer if you suck at multitaskings
TIP #1: When your light the bowl pull up slowly on the gbong and hold your hand on the carb, hold the lighter over it all the way up and you want it so the bottle is about to come out of the water. What happens is that there is a suction while you pull it up so the water level in the bottle stays the same, but gravity slowly pulls it down. When this happens the smoke condenses, which means thickens, so basically your getting about a regular bowls worth in a hit, actually with this gravity bong i showed you how to make should be more like a grams worth if not more of bud in the smoke.
TIP #2: YELLOW SMOKE IS GOOOD!!!! the reason the smoke is yellow is because its got about a grams worth of bud (if not more) in the smoke that means theres alot of THC content. the amount of smoke thats in there is probable the amount that would come off maybe 2 hits(off a pipe or bong), so 2 hits worth of smoke thats got 1+ grams worth of weed in it.
TIP #3:Once you got the bong all the way lit, take the bowl off and hand it to a friend or set it down. Then put the bottle to your mouth so the rim is all the way around your lips. have your mouth open just like you were if you were breathing. Then when you begin to take your hit, breath in naturally, just as if you were standing there breathing regular air. What i love about he gbong is that it does all the work for you when your taking a hit, so no deep breathes and shit like that. So when you hit it basically what happens is that the smoke is being forced into your lungs because the water is pushing it up as you push down. When this happens it forces so much smoke in your lungs that every single inch of space will be filled, and after that it will probably go down to your tummy and thats why u sometimes burp smoke.
TIP #4: Once you start taking your hit, push the bottle back in the water at a moderate pace with the carb open until it hits the bottom. the reason you want to have the carb open is because if you don't then the smoke will push all the water out and over the sides.
TIP #4: Its ok to cough your bawls off.don't feel like a pussy, and if someone does call you one i have the right to kick him in the balls. the reason you cough so hard is because you basically just smoked like 2grams worth in one hit. so its normal to cough, after a while you'll get used to it.
So i have no idea why i did this, but it was fun. Hope you guys like it, tell me what you think.
