What did you accomplish today?

Here's what you want for your job, like DW said...It'll last more than a decade, or 2...til the SS clamp breaks.

I have a couple of the PVC ones out there already, they have been there for over 20 years. They seal fine on pipe that isn't scarred up by a pipe wrench. I was in a hurry when I replaced the shutoff valve awhile ago and didn't really check to see if it leaked. I gave up after digging the hole out farther today, I'll fix it tomorrow.

We have two grandsons (8 & 6) for the foreseeable future - their mamma is outta town & looking at a C section + NICU for a bit.
Talk about time to corrupt the kids. :wink:
I hope the momma and new baby is well and all turns out ok.

What’s the weather like there , here in the Deep South it’s fantastic for spoiling grandkids. My son told me earlier that our oldest grandson crashed his scooter yesterday and with only a small cut but nicked an artery and was the bloodiest mess he’s ever seen. He said the blood was so thick on the little one’s face that it was hard for him to breathe but he has a dr. for a neighbor and all checked out ok .

Have fun with the kids.

ya know how you clean your bong, but there's always hard water deposits at the bottom and they get stained by the resin and the bong never looks NEW again?

Well. I just filled a bong with CLR and I'm gonna let it soak awhile.

Either my bong will be pristine again or it's gonna crack and I'll just go buy a new one.

Will report back.

I find a soak in vinegar works perfectly to descale my electric kettle. A day-long soak should work great on glass and fine on plastic.

I think @cannabineer has opinions on solvents

I use iso with a bit of sodium hydroxide for the organic/combustion residues. A quick squirt of the good yellow Easy-Off is a convenient way to supply the hydroxide. Fortunately I laid some iso in.

Heavy cleaning jobs might need a day’s soak. Some plastic wrap over any opening will keep the alkali from reacting with air (CO2) and losing its power.

Insta-hot water + ISO keeps my bong pristine.
When I keep the bowl & stem free of resin, I don't have to clean the big part as often.
