Hey guys, My bro just bought me a Roor steamroller Pipe, Medium. ROOR - Steamroller Pipe - Medium - Hand Pipes - Smoking Pipes - Grasscity.com Now for the last 6-7 years of smoking ive never done it any other way then rolling up with cigarette, im trying to cut down on cigarette, and just smoke it straight. However, i see the pipe has no screen or metal gauze, do i need a screen for this pipe? guessing i do otherwise all the weed will fall through the whole. I was told to just use a bit of foil, but i got a feeling thats a bad idea, what you guys think? any help is much appreciated, thanks again.
You need a slide, or bowl as other people call them. I will attach a pic of one. No foil, no screen. No tobacco? Edit: I went back and read the description. Looks like that is the bowl, so just pack a little bid in there and and toke away.
so i just put a bud in there without any extra parts necessary? i was also told to grind the weed first, which cant b right otherwise it would suck through the hole...
Definitely won't be a problem with ground weed unless the hole is gaping. lol. And you don't need a slide that's the bowl, just pack and toke. Should be dealt killer locs
if i ground the weed up and put it in, it would definitely fall through..its not a huge hole, but definitely big enough to fall through, a nice bud would be okay though i suppose

You can get like a pack or 10 for around 5 bucks.
yeh i thought a metal screen may be necessary just to make sure, but im starting to think im not meant to have any screen in it by reading around.
get a glass screen Magic Glass - Seamine Glass Screen - Clear or Colored Points - Grasscity.com or Black Leaf - "Sea Mine" Glass Screens - Pack of 3 - Grasscity.com so you don't always have to fill it all the way up. (when you only fill up the bottom of that bowl, it will be very hard to reach with your flame. etc)
So i just drop the 'sea mine' into the bowl and put weed on top...Think this will definitely be needed, i filled up the pipe yesterday without a screen and it worked fine until i got towards the end of it and the shit sucked through and almost into my mouth while still burning lol, luckily it didn't. Im now interested in buying a bong but not to sure which one, i dont want to spend to much at first as im not sure how much ill like it. Im thinking a glass ice bong would be best to start?? opinions? so i can get that smooth hit, but ive seen some affordable ones in the £20-40 range.
10 pack of stainless screens is $1 Just don't pull too hard and you won't have too much sucked through! And once the pipe gets resonated a bit more it will start sucking less through on ya.
did you buy a bowl/slide yet? ~$10 at your headshop otherwise you'll be having fun with those screens..
I just bought a mini version of the steam roller, it's about 10cm long and in what looks like the built in bowl there is a gap around 0.5cm wide, here's a photo of it. I'm not sure whether I will need a screen or not, can someone give me some advice? View attachment 123644
Steamrollers are good peices. I have a cheap acrylic one that hits awesome. You could either buy a bowl/slide or pack it like a chillum.
