I made a bowl out of some brass fittings from my garage. Brass is straight to smoke out of though right?

yea see both ZINC and COPPER are toxic to smoke from, zinc+copper=brass, so brass is not good to smoke from

I know this topic is like a week old, but i have a question related to this. Would using something like a trumpet mouth piece be safe to smoke out of. I'm not sure exactly what they are made of, but i have always though that they were safe, until reading some stuff on this site. Anyone know if it would cause any type of harm?

Brass should actually be fine to smoke from. Zinc has a melting point of ~1650º F, and your lighter is not going to get anywhere near that heat. Not to mention, they still make some candles with zinc- or tin-core wicks, which are safe and non-toxic.

^Well the zinc half may be safe, but what about the copper in brass?

I wouldnt advise anyone to smoke out of anything metallic.

If you can't afford a glass pipe, you shouldn't be smoking marijuana.

You can get them for less than $20 for a real basic one.

im almost positive that,when 2 alloys bond like that they create a totally new metal, so just because it does technically have copper in it, the melting point of brass is much higher because of the bonding with zinc, so unless ur smoking inside of a kiln or something brass is the safest metal to smoke out of
