sup guys...my first post, i got a really nice glass pipe a little while ago and i blaze out of it every chance i get, its starting to get really full of resin, usually during a good session my lips will have bits of resin on it from the mouth piece, is there any way i can clean this out and possibly save the resin, i was thinking if i put the pipe in the oven and let gravity drip it onto somthing, but i dunno....will the glass crack? help me out.

get a plastic container with a lid and fill it up with some rubbing alcohol and shake it but not too hard should get pretty much clean can filter it out with a coffee filter and let it dry

if you want the resin just scrape it out. to clean it but ur pipe in a ziplock bag with some rubbing alcohol and some salt, shake it for about 10 minutes, let it sit for a lil while, then run some hot water through it...good as new.

Boil the pipe. put some water in a pot, then put the pipe in there. turn on full blast and keep the pipe in the pot. grab tongs and let the boiling water to through it. LEAVE IT IN AT ALL TIMES. if you take the pipe out, its chances of cracking are high. once you have let it boil for a couple minutes, turn the heat off and let water cool down a bit. wait till you can stick your hand in the pot and pull the pipe out. since the pipe is hot, so is the resin inside. tap it out, holding it with one hand and gently tapping it with the other, it should slide right out. if you want to keep the resin (i reccomend you do, can draw a pretty good buzz off it) then empty onto a coffie filter. once all the resin is out, then grab some tin foil, and press down on the resin that is on the coffie filter. it should still be a little warm and wet, able to stick to the foil. then, wrap it up. leave it sit for a couple days, then smoke.

i reccomend smoking not just green, but opium and hash out of the pipe too, it mixes in the resin. gives it a better taste and better buzz.

enjoy

if your going to boil your pipe (a very good method too, but more smelly) make sure to put a small towel or something at the bottom of the pot, so the pipe and pot don't make direct contact, otherwise your pipe might crack if it isn't thick enough.
