Actually, I make them myself. I purchased a packet of "water slide" paper online. It comes in 8.5" × 11" sheets so it fits into my color ink jet printer easily. I download clip art or other images online, resize and modify them on my desktop computer using Photoshop and then print them out onto the water slide paper.
I do not coat the inside of the bowl with any kind of chemical protectant, but fortunately the bowl wood is much denser than the ground-up weed that sits in it. As long as you don't leave the flame on the bowl for an extreme amount of time, it will not ignite - after all, you don't want to over-heat your weed when smoking because that will destroy the THC and your lungs. I've found that after a few smoke sessions, the bowl gets coated with resin and creates a natural protection.
Hello Beezluiz was just recommend your homemade bowl tutorial and it's description less sickassery !I think it's a genius idea!! I have a run in now but it will be awhile yet before I can make use of stems but I have a thick girl that's a perfect candidate. She asleep now in flower but I get pic tomorrow. My last runs bones are gone by now. I was just skimming thru the thread checking it out, mainly looking for the process of treating the cannabis stem,staining or or coating to prep the wood. Am I missing it ? Lol I am new to 420 so it's very possible lol.
Welcome to 420! If you go to the very first page, Parts 1 and 2 describe most of the fabrication process, while Part 3 walks you through the coating process. Then down a bit, you will see Part 4 where I explain the decorating portion of the pipe.
