fixing a broken bowl with super glue?

somehow, my bowl that belongs to my bong broke, and i really liked it because it could fit almost a whole gram in it at a time. it broke into 3 pieces, so i decided to try and super glue it back together, and surprisingly, it looks perfect now, you can barely even see the small cracks.

i tried not to get any super glue on the INSIDE of the bowl, but only on the outside, but apparently, some has leaked it's way through. I was wondering if this is still safe to smoke out of? i don't want to smoke some random chemicals from super glue, do you guys think it's still safe? or is it not worth it?

anyone else broken a bowl and repaired it with super glue? how did it go??

thanks guys.

A friend broke mine and I repaired it with a glass epoxy. It works great unless you power through 3 or 4 bowls real fast. Usually when that happens the epoxy gets really weak and the stem breaks again. Mine also has some on the inside, and so far has been fine, but when the cherry gets too hot I do get somewhat of a nasty hit, presumably from the epoxy.

Yeah mine broke to, like right in half on the inside of the bowl only, I wouldn't use super glue, cause I was paranoid about the same thing, and tape doesn't sound like it would work lol..

I would not advise using super glue at all. Chemical residues are bound to come off and I would avoild inhaling that shit at all cost.

GORILLA GLUE FTW!! just remember the damp it before you apply the glue. or else it will come lose. happened to my broken bong. and it came loose and the bottom fell off and shattered haha.

I'm sure you can. I'm pretty sure you have a grommit joint, in which case they usually come in 2 sizes, 8mm and 12mm. A lot of shops call it normal and "oversized". Bust out a ruler, or just eyeball it, then go to a headshop.

Don't use super glue. It slowly starts to come undone and you will start tasting it in your bowls, which is never a good sign. Then again it's a bong, so you probably don't have to worry about that. Either way, super glue isn't too super for long. It is better to tape it.

All those glues will leave harmful chemical residues in the bowl and in the bong water. Its better to spend $5 on a cheap slide than to risk thousand dollar hospital bills.

We got desperate and did that before, but it will come undone pretty soon. I guess if u dont flame it to hardcore and it doesnt get hot it might last a little longer, but when it gets to hot it will rebrake. When it rebroke on us we were in a basement and the bowl came apart and shattered on the floor :X.
