5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful and informative, January 9, 2008

By	E. Jackson - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A great book for DIY enthusiasts, the projects were not hard at all. Most of them only took a day or two to build. I managed to create 23 of them so far and sold some on Ebay. The best part is that you get to decorate the bongs and pipes yourself. I also enjoyed the small tidbits of info that were presented as well. It's a great handbook.

nothing in this book I have not seen before.cool if youve never made anything yourself.nothing too exciting.might as well buy products rather than make them.fun to think about the times you made a can pipe etc.
