What do I use to seal the tubing to the funnel on one end and to the valve on the other???

I am building one for the upcoming holiday and I have a funnel, 1.5 ft tube and a pvc valve with the adapter. I just don't know how to stick them together. Any other ideas on beer bong building would be great too.

Ours had a tube the fit tight onto the business end of the funnel. If you dip the end of the tube in rubbing alcohol it will slip easily onto the funnel end. When it drys it's there for good.
We had a huge funnel - you could easily put 32oz of beer or more into it without draining any out.

Wow, it's been 18 years since I've pounded anything out of a bong, and that was Peach Schnapps...oh to be young and stupid again lol...but I digress. Owning a bar myself, I would first make your tubing a little longer, maybe 2 ft. Of course the diameter of the tubing has to be able to fit around the tip of the funnel (and a large funnel will ensure less chances of messes). I've seen several, non-technical, devices used to secure the tube to the funnel. The simplest behing duct tape, but I would recommend a small hose clamp. This can be done simply just by using a screw driver to tighten the connection. I have also seen non-toxic model glue used with plumbing tape if you want to go that route, or even wire ties. I hope I have helped, and good luck with you intoxication.

use glue for plastic at home depot or Lowe's there are all types of epoxies get one that matches the materials you are using. Once it drys try to see how many you can do without crawling on the ground and drooling, I've seen 12 in a half hour. If you want to step it up a notch get industrial size tubing and the largest funnel they sell, you won't be disappointed.

I would try to find a tubing that fits very snug over the funnel and into the valve. On top of that, rubber cement works fairly well as a sealent as it has some give.
