my bowl broke in the inside where the hole is. a piece is missing and the piece that broke is inside of the bowl and I can't get it out. is it still safe to smoke out of? - Edit I got the piece out but the hole is still there. is it still useable ?
Just put your fingers over the hole and take care not to cut yourself. Then light up and surf the web for a new one. Things come and go...
my 2 cents is get another bowl. they're like 10-20 bucks. i mean if it's still usable, use it, but before you get out the masking tape and super glue, just get another bowl lol.
I would recommend investing in a new bowl. I had a friend who refused to give up her glass piece after it had broken, and she ended up cutting her mouth.
Replace it because it can be very dangerous. I cut my mouth once with a broken bowl only a bit but it could be worse.
