How to Make a Pipe Out of a Can

It’s important to understand that heating and inhaling aluminum can cause neurological diseases. Admittedly, lighting a can with a lighter is unlikely to cause high enough heat for vaporization. Still, this isn’t the healthiest option for smoking cannabis.

While research is inconclusive, it’s believed that aluminum can cause Alzheimer’s Disease, other brain disorders, and cancer. This is because the plastics in the paint and inner lining of a can contain BPA.

If you just need a temporary pipe while you look for a replacement, using an aluminum can once or twice is unlikely to cause these conditions. However, long-term use can be dangerous and we do not recommend it.
