    Do you guys think its ok to use a socket wrench bowl with a tiny tiny bit of rust on it? Would it be really bad for my lungs or something? thanks

    Im not so sure about rust, but my being concern would be the chrome finish.

    I've posted various information but smoking out of socket bits w/ chrome finish is VERY VERY bad for your long term health.

    I don't know man, I would doubt it because heavy metal poisionings like that require pretty regular exposure... i'd just not do it ever again.

    Also, from my understanding, there would be pretty severe symptoms as a result of serious damage.

    I would strongly recommend against EVER smoking out of chrome sockets.

    it'll say on the package.

    ...it's not like looking at a peice of lumber, it's just metal.

    Exactly.

    Hell, i'd bet money that you're better off with a pop-can pipe than with a chrome-finished bowl.

    just soak it in some clr and shake it up for a good 5 minutes, then wash it very well and use a q-tip to scrub it clean
