Anyone have tips for dropping in a Downstwm once the bowl has been pushed?

Hey everyone,
I was working on this dry piece with some friends, but it ended up getting too big to be a nice dry. I think with one more section on the bottom of the can it'll be a great bub though. The problem is that I already pushed the bowl. I figure these are my two options, let me know if you have any advice or experience with doing this,

Option #1- Try to just rip out the bottom of the bowl, drop in a slightly flared downstem with a constriction. Slowly melting it in bit by bit so it doesn't get wonky.

Option #2- Blow it back out and try to sink it in more properly.

What do you think??

Definitely #2. Close the hole, puff it out smooth, and start over.

has to be 2 unless you want to gong it all out but the mouthpiece has to be much higher than the can for that.

neither finish it off and don't fuck it up, then make a bubbler.

I think a big dry piece is fine as long as it clears well.

Thanks for the replies guys(&gals). We are probably just going to make it a dry guy, but I wanted to check if anyone had a super-tech that we hadn't thought of. Thanks again
