Almost exactly 7/8" and a tad over 5/8" deep.

Use a 3/4 drill and buy a 64th undersize wood broach for the diameter, or glue thin magnets to your silicon case and the bottom of the c-bore.

If you don't, you won't be assured of retention and when the wood swells/shrinks the case may fall out, then someone is going to get gutterwax.

E: a 2L bottle cap is 1.25"dia by .5" deep for reference.

Is a torch the best way to clean a bowl used for dabs like the one in my puffco vape? Soaking this thing in 91% iso does almost nothing.

Salt and alcohol is my go-to cleaning solution.

It’s basically formula 420 without the blue and whatever lemon or lime scent they also use.

Oven at 200°F for 20~ minutes. Prop upside down over parchment paper on a cookie sheet and it will run right out onto the paper for you to throw away or into edibles.

Let cool, finish with alcohol wash. If alcohol isn't cutting it, acetone and an outdoor space, wear gloves, shake vigorously for a minute or two. Rinse with water and let dry, smell for remaining acetone, rinse again if needed.

I had big globs of reclaim in the bottom of my rig, alcohol did poo poo, but the oven just made it melt and fall out.

You'll still have a little tack around whatever hole it comes out of, but an alcohol wipe will more than suffice for that, after it's cooled.

Fyi, never leave acetone on your parts. Always wash a part in iso after acetone or you'll end up hosed. I don't know why but it's what I was always told as a machinist.

Acetone is not safe for silicone or rubber long term. So you can't clean gaskets in it like ISO.

Anyone know why popcorn bud exists? Is it that certain plants never grow bud past a certain size, or is it a quality thing?

It's the buds lower on the stems that get less light because of canopy. You "lollipop" a plant by stripping away a lot of lower branches and bud sites, which directs more nutrients to the buds on top of the canopy.

It's not a quality thing, lower buds get less light and won't develop as large as colas, though potency is often lower than cola buds.

Lol. Yeah, lanes are oiled, if not daily then at least weekly, depends on the alley. Stripping the excess lane oil off after a game increases the likelihood of finding traction way down at the end of the lane, where it's not oiled. They're usually oiled about halfway down, which explains why people who try to use too much english and a bad angle always wind up in the gutter.

i originally got it to wash 3d prints but i also use it for bowls and slides and the titanium tip from my nectar collector. they come out looking like new unless it's been a while and they might need another go. if anything happens to it i will replace it right away

I got a quarter of "popcorn" nugs for 45 bucks and what surprised me about them is they aren't even that small. In fact they're totally normal sized, maybe on the smaller side but nothing I would even notice if they'd been sold normally. Oh well, good deal

Now that I'm nearing the end of my sublingual "breath spray," I don't think I can recommend it. Yes, it's easy to use and kicks in fast, but the dosing is a little iffy--in part because a lot of oil winds up on the outside of the spray. There was enough oil to loosen the label after only a few spritzes, and eventually the whole thing was oily and gross. A waste of active product. I'm glad I only had it sitting on a shelf and not creating grease stains in a pocket or purse.

Now, I've seen some places selling it for half what others charge. I might buy it again at half-price. Maybe.

anyone know what causes a batch of flower to feel somewhat "soft" and "crumbly"? but not wet or damp per se. my gut tells me it was not dried properly but crossing my fingers that maybe some strains are just like this. the stems do feel about right in terms of snappiness.

It's probably a drying/curing issue, the buds may also just not be as dense as you're used to seeing if you're spoiled by really good weed

e if you're super high already, also consider that it may be deadly mold, or fake weed sold by the DEA in a sting operation to catch you specifically

mold is the concern but ive inspected it pretty carefully and it doesnt seem to show any signs (but then again im not an expert). bummer cause if not for this it would be some pretty good bud! All the other qualities are there and it tasted good in my vape when i tried it and im not dead yet :unsmith:

I have a ton of kief in my kief stealer so I put in some gelato #33 (also seems to have low hunger effects, it has durban poison in its ancestry due to thin mint GSC) and some kief to my fury edge and put it on 430 to get whatever THCV was in the Gelato #33. I didn't get hungry with just gelato #33, the night before last. Durban poison definitely works for that too (I know I bang on about this!), night before last.

Anyway, while I was vaping I heard sizzling noises and I think it was the kief hitting the metal filter (or just against the heating chamber) and sizzling. I only had the chamber about 1/3rd to 1/4 full. It became really hard to draw the vapour as well. So maybe kief is really better for rolling joints in. It did make me feel really nice, so that's good! I'll leave it for weekends or something, I think, because, it gave me munchies. It's got all kinds of crap in it: motor breath 15, purple punch, Pie hoe, runtz, sour scout, etc. :)

I top the last bowl of every bag with kief. It sizzles when I light it because that’s what kief does.

It’s like turbo weed.

I'm at work so I can't get high yet but I plan to smoke some weed after work from either my dirty bong or my dirty pipe. Then I have to mow the lawn.

ive found kief works best as the middle layer between two flower layers whether youre vaping or combusting. it works especially nice in mu fury edge and havent noticed any sizzle or crackle.
