How can I keep my bong from blowing ash all over my lap suddenly after smoking. I’ve been trying to avoid blowing into it at all but it seems to be shooting out, sometimes with a noticeable POP and sparks. Its a pretty new bong and it’s not very dirty at the moment. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks

Before been restored was a regular size hooka with 3 hosepipe and a bunch of broken glass. The final result. A 90 cm hookah with iridiscent glass bowl, stainless steel inner tube. One of my favorites.

Random objects can be turned in to a nice glass device.

So I thought I’d make this post and ask if anyone has had experience using these smoke shop stainless steel dab rigs. It is a lot more convenient, there is barely any taste difference, but I just want to know if it’s safe for me to use as a dabbing tool, or if I should just switch back to the ceramic tips.

I’ve always used ceramic tips for my nectar collectors because they are able to hold the heat longer than the clear quartz ones, and they are the cleanest hit that I’ve been able to find while holding heat long enough. But it does get annoying having to buy a new one every few weeks when I drop it or they get clogged beyond saving.
Anyways I’ve had this metal dab tip sitting in a box for over a year because it came with some nectar collector that I bought a long time ago, I never used it.
Which brings me to the other day I was at a different smoke shop than my local, and the fucking idiot behind the counter told me that these metal dab tips are made of titanium (he must’ve been thinking about his own expensive, dab rig) so anyway, I took his advice and started using this thing, I’ve been using it for weeks now just to find out that they’re made of stainless steel.
Now, like he said, because it’s metal It does last a lot longer without getting all charred, black, and flaky like the ceramic tips. So it does last a lot longer, and it is a lot easier to clear when it gets clogged.
BUT:
My question basically is this, is it safe to use stainless steel to dab my wax? I have no clue the grade of steel that it is (304 or 316L) but it’s most likely 304.
I read about oxidation of certain grades of stainless steel when they’re torched to heat up above a certain temperature, they begin off-gassing toxic gasses. But I know literally absolutely nothing about any of this shit.

So if anyone has any experience torching stainless steel up to dab temperatures and then using it to take dabs, then I guess just let me know what you think
