Ummm....if I'm not mistaken, the screen is so your weed doesn't fall through while (or after for that matter) you smoke it.
I suppose if you had no other chioce and it fit right you could. Alternativly, you could just go to any store that sells pipes and they will give you free screens.
You should'nt have to use a screen. Just pack the bowl and be careful when it is almost burnt out. I never use screens. Only time you would need a screen is if the hole in your bowl is way to big, then get a better pipe.
yeah but if your smoking an aluminum screen through a water bong wont the water get rid of the harmful aluminum chemicals?
you dont really need a screen for a bong because its just used to keep ash and stuff from getting in your lungs. no the water wouldn't filter out aluminum chemicals and yes a faucet screen is easy to use, but what i do is tear off a small piece of aluminum foil and poke several holes in the middle with a tack or needle
