This is a Bumblebee pipe made for smoking hash oil. It was a collaboration piece between Banjo (fun fact: I used to own a Banjo stemless bubbler many moons ago!) and Bluegrass Man. As beautifully crafted as it is, pieces like this always give me the heebie jeebies. Amazing, yes, but something I want to be holding and responsible for setting down when I'm high? No. One time I broke a pipe made out of a rock.

Hit the jump for a shot of the side.

Thanks to my buddy Terry, who actually tried getting high by stuffing a nug up his keister.

    YESSSSS: Insane Jurassic Park Explorer Smoking Pipe
    October 5, 2012
    This is a $10,000 collaboration vapor pipe from glassblowers Adam Whobrey and ELBO. It looks like one of the Explorer SUV's from Jurassic Park. Smoke doesn't actually pass through the entire thing though, all the pipe parts are hidden in the bottom. Think of them as the engi... / Continue →
  • Life-Size Clear Glass Assault Rifle Pipes (Well, Bongs)
    September 5, 2012
    This is a series of borosilicate glass pipes made by Michelsen Studios to look like clear, life-size assault rifles (in this case, an AR-15). The bowl is in the scope, and has a downstem to the gun handle, which you fill with water. Then put your lips on the barrel and WHEE, ... / Continue →
  • You Purty!: Stained Glass Boba Fett Lamp
    May 19, 2011
    Fett there be light! Get it?! Because I'm afraid of the Dark Side. This is stained glass lamp (not a smoking pipe) of Boba Fett's helmet made by DeviantARTist mclanesmemories (Michael McLane). Personally, I think it's amazing, but I'm also a sucker for stained glass. You k... / Continue →

  • I like the creativity of this smoking hash oil pipes. Wish to have one for smoking because i am die hard fan of movie transformers...:)

  • Moreover it looks liks a robot rather than a pipe for smoking hash oil.I would like to experience amoking from it once.

  • Angela Rae

    It's for concentrates, like BHO (butane honey oil). Got huge in the glass blowing industry at the beginning of the year. That's an 18mm Titanium Nail, they're awesome! (you heat it with a torch and then dab your oil onto it once it's glowing red, it vapes instantly)

  • ZomBBombeR

    I just can't neccessitate use for this thing, I mean it is a beauty but I hardly ever get my hands on oil so I'll just stick to my double perk.

    what we care is the shape..didn't we? ridiculous! c_o_u_g_a_r_s_t_e_r_c_0_m leads you to a new life.

  • Isaac King

    Wait a minute GW, you smoked weed AND STILL became a successful blogger? I feel like all of those drug warnings at the arcade were just a bunch of lies now...

  • Kads

    This is for smoking oil concentrates, not smoking the flower (reefer) itself. You always make this mistake when you post about glass pieces.

  • You always make the mistake when you post that people give a shit about corrections.

  • No...we don't. lmao Jon.

  • Kads

    Considering this is a post about functional art made by the legendary glass blower Banjo: yes, I do believe people (including the glass blower himself) would give a shit about his work being called an oil rig, and not a pipe. This is a mistake that the op consistently makes in this blog. I'm a glass nerd and am lucky enough to call many famous glass blowers my friend. If the op wishes to make a respected re-posting blog in which he takes other's original content and creates a story about it: yeah...he should probably give a shit about corrections. Otherwise his reader base will be primarily people like you. Have a nice day.

  • BillGatesIsYourDaddy

    So...I CAN'T smoke my icky-sticky out of this?

  • ZomBBombeR

    unless it's oil, solids like hash, trichomes, and the good ol' bud itself would just gum this thing up and render it inoperable.

  • this guy has no idea wtf hes talking about, it will smoke weed just fine.

  • ZomBBombeR

    I don't know what your idea of just fine is, but I like massive thick clouds of smoke and if your heating this thing and then trying to place the bud on the tray and have solely the residual heat give you smoke, your retarded, you need to put flame to bud to smoke it or atleast keep it at a steady temp. just under 400* f to vaporize the THC, all I'm saying is it's meant for oil not weed, you can use it for weed but not to the same effectiveness as you could smoke oil from it, no screen in the dish moron it's solid, you heat the dish dab the stuff and the smoke travels out over the bowl and down into the glass portion so STFU!!!11!!1!

  • Kads

    Nopers. This is an oil dome. This piece does not have a standard female ground glass connection for a slide (aka: bowl) It has a reversed ground glass connection which houses the glass dome and the TI Nail. The metal "nail" inside of the dome itself is heated with a torch until red hot, and then you "dab" your concentrate upon the nail. Blam.

  • The bowl is clearly interchangeable.

  • $18922249

    I smoke bud out of my oil dome all of the time. It's fine everyone, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about.

    Edit:: My prior comment was troll bait. I do not smoke weed, and I have no clue the difference between pipes. Cheers for not falling for it.

    Also, take it easy on these kids. Not everyone is so passionate about watching Aqua Teen Hunger Force and eating Cheetos.

    Dude, you just torched that guy!
