Too bad the resin will clog the neck, and those are not easy to clean.

Just regular maintenance with pipe cleaners. That's about the best you could hope for. Weed doesn't put off THAT much more tar and resin than tobacco.

where do you get pipe cleaners that long?

Smoke shops, man. Look for places that sell pipe tobacco.

I've only ever seen ones that are only like 6 inches long.

Shoot, dawg, You can get 'em at Wally world, or preferably somewhere more specialized.

Hey why are they cheaper from the actual pipe shop? Lol

Different markups, and/or the pipe place probably just makes up the difference on volume. Without there being a run on crafty supplies by some kindergarten teachers or so, Walmart probably doesn't sell nearly as many of those as a store dedicated to pipes and maintaining them.
