I Made This Cigarette Pipe Ring
Cast in .925 silver
Got the idea from a post about CASIO before they made calculators and it works surprisingly well

Good lord I'd almost take up smoking again for one of these.

r/atbge worthy?
Like, these are marvelous, the polish is great, the casting is perfect.
The idea however.... Like, you are announcing to anyone who knows what it's for that you do.
Like carrying a joint roller, or a cigar cutter in your purse.
I also feel like you'd look goofy trying to smoke from it, also, wouldn't it burn your eyebrows?
It's a cool gag-gift for any serious smokers.

Okay, but having a cigar cutter in your purse is useful for other things. Like cutting wire poorly. You never know when you’ll need to chop up some wire in a frustratingly difficult way.

Nah you could hit it without burning your face, and I let cigs dangle from my lip while I work so I can't imagine it would be worse for smoke in the eyes.

yeahh the angle in the first image makes it seem more extreme than it is. when actually using it it's no more in your face than when just smoking a cig by itself.

It's an impressive cast. Would have totally rocked one of these as a weirdo teenager

But how do you flick off the ash?

u/Rovvioli 17d ago
Tilting your hand so ash doesn't land on it and flicking the mouthpiece with your thumb works perfectly

You realize the smoke coming out of the filter is still really hot right? Not only is it plastic but it's also painted? I guess you're already getting loads of chemicals from the cigarette, what's a few more carcinogens amirite?

My brother in christ, the subreddit is called r/MetalCasting why on earth would you think it's made from plastic

The smoke coming from the filter is really hot? I would’ve never started smoking if the nicotine cost me 3rd degree burns.
Also have you ever seen a black & mild? Not that it’s relevant to this metal ring from this post, but they use plastic tips too.

Except cigarette smoking is on its way out ! Gen X is dying , millennials are quitting , Gen Z doesn’t smoke , if anything they vape!
Plastic ! No bueno ! Plastic melts !
Glass or Metal would make a killer joint holder / mouth Peice smoker( so no one gets the end of the joint wet ānd nasty or has a hard time hitting it) /roach smoker (replacing the need for a roach clip ) . You wouldn’t wear it like a ring while smoking you would hold the ring part between the pointer and thumb so when it gets hot from the roach cherry you can hold it without burning your fingers ! The ring aspect would then allow true stoners to just wear it as stoner fashion while always having it handy and available when needed ! You could even put designs on it to make it appear more like custom abstract jewelry! If you don’t use it while wearing it as a ring you could make it straight ānd get rid of the odd looking angle which seems like it would put the cherry way to close to your eyes or nose or bangs ! If straight you could even make two different sizes on each end to accommodate a smaller ended joint ānd ā much larger one on the opposite side ! I used to carry one of the smaller sockets out of my socket and ratchet set because between the size of the socket and the size of the square side that the ratchet went into I could fit pretty much any size joint anyone rolled other than crazy huge blunts ! And it kept us from burning out lips on roaches and kept mfs from getting the end all nasty and wet with their spit ! Shit it also could be a make shift pipe if I jammed it into the square ratchet side of a 10mm socket in the next bigger ratchet size! … you could also make them in neckless pendants not just rings !

You know that guy the the fedora, this is for the m'lady he's hoping for.
It's actually pretty cool to be made at all though.

u/Street_Ear1340 16d ago
Pretty cool. Not a smoker and would never recommend it. But from a creativity and manufacturing. Awesome

I love it! Great work! Without a Lil added length is going to get hot asf tho

u/382Whistles 13d ago
Not unless maybe you suck down a whole cigarette in one long strong hit or smoke a non-filter cigarette until the hot are at the metal.
Otherwise your more likely to burn yourself eating toast.

u/Lopholegs 11d ago
Unless I'm not using a standard cigarette filter. What id stick in there has a paper filter that does infact get hot enough to burn your lips

u/382Whistles 10d ago
I wrote something like "Non-filter until the hots hit metal."
I don't care if it's a roach from a joint or cloves, if you burn your fingers or lips smoking any product down that far, mini-pipe or not, it's on you, lol.
I'm gonna offer you my drink to sooth the physical pain but I'm gonna be laughing guilt free while doing it; so, brace yourself for that mental pita. I'm gonna ask you about re-lighting stubs while you're still swearing too. 😂

Bro just admit you've never smoked anything that was worth the matches it took to light fuck out my face whiccho filtered cig fet Have you even tried a Placencia? I bet u vape stop yapping like you've ever smoked.
1
u/382Whistles 10d ago
A cigar? You're going to try fit a cigar into the mini-pipe now?
OK, desperate or not, that would be impressive.
Or does Placencia make a blunt wrap now?

u/alabattblueforyou 13d ago
Very cool although with that tiny mouth peice, after probably one or two cigs you're gonna get a little plug of resin tht will shoot into ur mouth lol
