Ein Mann aus Huye Luang stellt aus zwei Bambusröhren mit Hilfe eines Haumessers eine etwa 57 cm hohe Wasserpfeife her. Die Fugen dichtet er mit Rindertalg ab. In das dickere Saugrohr füllt er Wasser; er stopft Tabak in den Pfeifenkopf und raucht die Pfeife.

The upper joint of a bamboo cane of about 60 cm, with two joints, is pierced with a rod of wood. In the lower third of the cane a hole is incised with a bush knife into which hole a thin bamboo rod is diagonally introduced. The joint is sealed with tallow. The thin bamboo rod was cut off immediately to one side of a joint, thus producing a funnel-shaped form like the bowl of a pipe. Water is now poured into the thicker cane, tobacco is filled into the bowl, and the pipe is smoked.
