I was thinking along similar lines paul, but such condensers need to have water passed though them in order to cool the gases.
I know but (a big but) I was just guessing it could be a single volume cooler.
sorry for the long post
A bong is simply a smoking apparatus, which filters the smoke you inhale through water instead of through a filter or roach.
The various procedures a bong utilises to convert marijuana into pure filtered cool smoke are as follows:
The starting point of the process is with the bowl that will contain your cannabis. This must be fire proof so that when you hold a flame to the weed it wont go up in smoke, and also must have tiny holes in the bottom to allow the smoke to be pulled through.
The next stage the smoke goes through is to travel through a hollow pipe that is attached to the bottom of the bowl containing your weed. The pipe will enter into the side of a large vessel containing water. The hole in the side of this container should be airtight, and the bottom of the pipe must be submerged in the water.
The water is the next part of the process. The cool liquid acts as a filter for dust particles and other nastiness that floats along with the smoke, and also it acts as a coolant to further refine the hit. After a few uses you can see the superb filtering properties the water has - the water turns into a foul liquid.
The smoke will rise up through the water - and hang suspended in the top part of the water filled container. At the top of the container will be a hole through which you have just sucked - pulling the flame onto the weed, and pulling the resulting fumes through the pipe, into the water and finally into the top part of the container. The empty space of the container now has filled up with cool filtered smoke, waiting the final part of the process.
At the side of the container - above the water level, there is be a small hole which you should keep covered up with your finger until this point in time. This hole is called a shotgun hole, as it acts in the same way as when you shotgun a can of beer - allowing an easy passage of air into the container - to allow an easy passage of smoke out of the container into your lungs.
So to summarise the events:
1) Hold a flame to the weed in the bowl.
2) Keeping your finger over the shotgun hole - inhale to draw the smoke through the water into the top part of the bong.
3) When this is filled with smoke, stop burning the weed.
4) Release your finger from the shotgun hole, and inhale strongly a second time - sucking the smoke into your lungs.
5) Hold in as long as you want, then breath out.
6) Lie back and enjoy - but keep your bong upright, that water becomes pretty disgusting.

i've used them when i was a ladpghstochaj said:Dave, we use something called a Leibig Condenser:
This could be this but without a flow through?
I thought distilling/fermentation but know nothing about either in that sense.
Is it not just a wine decanter for white wine which you put cold water or ice in the middle to keep it cool? we have one at home looks very similar.

you forgot to add smoking weed can cause long term paranoia and/or sycosis (sp) and you must not puff n drive or smoke weed in pauls kitchen

its not very big wouldnt hold much wine
Hmm and it's a bit ugly for a wine decanter as well it does look quite functional rather than decorative.

I used to have a bong called Derek the Demobiliser, which had four outlet pipes, which is less handy when there is less than four of you about, but cool otherwise.
A better solution than the bong is the water cooled hot knife machine. Basically still using water to cool the smoke, but hooked up to a car battery or similar power source to pump the smoke through. We used to use 6 volts to get it started then switch to 12 volts. No need to suck, no need for a shotgun effect, you just get inflated with cool filtered smoke.
That's a cool hit.
Sorry to go off topic, don't suppose Dave's thingy is a water cooled hot knife machine.

why did you have to start talking about bongs?? i want a spliff now. Ive been really good and not smoked anything illegal in months.
The place i lived last, my housemate used to make his own bongs out of fishing rod tubes - some of them were quite inventive. One was 5' tall. He had 2 that held huge volumes of smoke, they were called Luke & Darth!!
But the said article is in fact as Paul stated earlier on, an oil and vinegar dispenser - pointless, but im guessing is gadgetry designed for women

OK, bare in mind this was my missus suggestion and her comeback to your comment was. Yes you do need ATP, but how do you know it's not alive, it could be an alien lifeform.
you two, it's illegal you know!
Being intoxicated enough to talk about that thing being alive
So you normally think that inanimate objects can be alive?
After a few hits from a bong I become in inanimate object, but there is still some life registering.
