MEDI-DIAL
Conventional cannabis pipes require frequent emptying and repacking. For medicinal users, carefully portioning and preparing each bowl becomes a repetitive daily chore, adding friction that may make a prescribed routine harder to maintain. This presents an opportunity to consolidate preparation into a single session, reducing daily handling.

Inspired by the weekly pill organiser, this 3D-printed ceramic pipe combines seven bowls (cone-pieces) with an indexing mechanism. Users can prepare portions in advance and rotate to a fresh bowl each day, helping track weekly use. The mechanism also accommodates shared use, extending its commercial potential beyond medicinal users. Early metal/glass prototypes validated the mechanism.
