could someone tell me the sizes of tubing needed to make those blunt tube things and also where to get the rubber grommets to hold them together, I think the inside one was 9.5,.?.?

oh yeah, and use some 3/4" heat shrink tubing, about a 1 1/4" length on the joint for a seal. Make sure its NOT the adhesive lined stuff.

smokeless cigarettes , check the head shop . tube slides in other tube , you pack larger tube and slide the inner up as the top burns out , short version .
commonly called glass blunt or a slider sometimes

From a google search, what I could find was this:

Hotlinked from http://www.spaceweed.com/Glass_Blunt.html
Apparently, it's a glass tube with another flared glass tube inside it to act as a plunger, connected with some shrink tubing. The plunger/mouthpiece part is pulled back until the desired amount of room is available, then the big tube is filled with "tobacco" and lit. As it burns, the plunger is pushed forward to ash the blunt and keep the "tobacco" cherried. I've never tried one, but from what I've read, they are reported to smoke similar to real blunts or handrolled "cigarettes", but they hold a very large amount - 2 grams of "tobacco" or more... great for parties!
As with any glass for smoking, its important to keep them clean.

Well we give our customers a little better value 10mm & 16mm, use a rubber grommet not heat shrink.

I make glass mouthpieces for blunts, theyre like chillums but shorter and I don't close the reduction as small as I would on a regular chillum. I do a reduction to about the diameter of a blunt mouthpiece in a 3 or 4 inch long section of 12mm tube.

i have one, dont use it any more really but i used to a lot. works good. never made any but i would think they would be easy as hell. its just getting the 2 tubes different sizes and a little piece of shrink tube. the one i have isnt even flared, just a little stringer across the inside tube so theres something to pack it against.

so u just put them in the kiln on 250 or lower to shrink the "heat shrink" tubing? OR?.....tried a hairdryer, didnt work too well.
