Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned user, creating the perfect bong or dab rig setup starts with the right pieces. With Bake Buds’ wide range of products, you can build a kit that fits your style, budget, and session needs – from the basics to all the extras.
Step 1: Choose Your Base – Bong or Dab Rig
The foundation of your kit is the main piece: a bong or dab rig.
Bongs:
-
Offer water filtration for smoother hits
-
Ideal for dry herb sessions
-
Styles include mini bongs, beaker bongs, and recycler bongs
Dab Rigs:
-
Designed for concentrates like wax or shatter
-
Typically include a quartz banger and work with carb caps and terp pearls
-
Great for flavor-focused sessions
Tip: Pick a size that matches your space and portability needs – mini bongs are perfect for travel, while larger recyclers offer premium filtration.
Step 2: Add Essential Accessories
Once you have your base, include tools that make sessions easier and more enjoyable:
For Bongs:
-
Percolator bongs or diffuser-equipped rigs for extra smooth hits
-
Ice catcher for chilled draws
-
Bong cleaner to maintain flavor and airflow
For Dab Rigs:
-
Quartz banger for even heating
-
Terp pearls to circulate concentrates
-
Carb cap to control airflow and vaporization
Other essentials for both setups:
-
Herb grinder with kief catcher
-
Rolling tray for organization
-
Smell-proof jar or stash box for storage
Step 3: Upgrade With Extras
Once the basics are in place, consider these extras to enhance your kit:
-
Rolling papers & pre-rolled cones – for backup sessions or joint prep
-
One hitters & hand pipes – quick, discreet hits for on-the-go use
-
Premium cleaning tools – brushes, wipes, and bong cleaner solutions
-
Terp pearls and dab tools – maximize flavor from concentrates
Adding these extras turns a standard setup into a versatile, complete kit for any session.
Step 4: Organize Your Kit
A well-organized kit keeps everything easy to access:
-
Use a stash box for your main pieces and smaller accessories.
-
Store dry herb in smell-proof jars.
-
Keep tools like dab picks, grinders, and cleaning supplies in separate compartments.
-
Arrange portable items like mini bongs, one hitters, or pre-rolled cones for quick access.
Tip: Organization prevents damage to glass pieces and keeps sessions stress-free.
