How to modify a SOAP request?

Where can I find a soap bubble blowing pipe that looks like a realistic wooden smoking pipe?

• Where can I find a soap bubble blowing pipe that looks like a realistic wooden smoking pipe? All the ones I see online are made of brightly colored plastic. Alternatively, is it possible to modify a real smoking pipe for blowing soap bubbles? Thank you very much for your help!

• Answer:

  Have you tried blowing bubbles with a real pipe? I just made a weak dish-soap/water mix, dipped an old briar pipe in it, and it did OK. It could have been better, but then, I don't think I had a very good soap to water ratio. Granted, it's been quite a while since I used a toy bubble pipe, but do they have anything special about 'em? I thought they were pretty much just like smoking pipes -- a reservoir/bowl attached to a stem, just used in reverse. Mind you, the wood will be more absorbant than the plastic of a toy pipe, and might not stand up to heavy daily use. Do not do this with a pipe that anyone will ever want to smoke from again... and indeed, you're probably best off buying a new pipe, so that there's less of a tarry foul mud produced in the bowl. But, nothing says verisimilitude like the thing itself.
