just need a dish with walls that aren't flat to do dish purging


but honestly parchment is just way easier because it's a lot less messy :lol:

Then you just freeze and break it off and shove it into your dish

Do you use color changing glass in any of your work?
I still dont understand quite what this actually means.

If I use colors with silver in them, they somewhat "fume" the piece a little. If I fume it, it's fumed too. But it isnt even fuming that matters, its that if your pipe is still translucent, as you smoke through it the pipe just adds a layer of "jet black" to the inside of the glass making the light reflect differently to your eyes.

At least that's all I've figured out in a year....... FDD or someone else can correct me if I understand that wrong.

If my interpretation is right, then any pipe you can see through is a color changer. :)

Kitty if I meet someone as cool as you someday, I will be a happy man lol.

Shit if I can be as cool as you some day ill be happy.

Its funny how many "experimenters" there are, testing and discovering vast banks of knowledge that a "non smoker" has no idea exists. I think that's why I like forums so much, I have no one in real life to really discuss my hobbies with.

She looks it judging by the pictures ;)


My s/o doesn't burn. It's a blessing in disguise though.

Shes getting used to the smell from me opening up elbowz around her all the time :lol:

She doesn't smoke but the dankest Sour D stinkin up the room doesn't scare her away.. should be a good sign :)

Got a real nice haul from the mailman today. Tube came in and so did my mns black widows.

Thanks again kitty! Can't fucking wait to use it. 2 weeks.

Sears totally gave me the run around, they didn't have the mityvac or foodaver things. Guess I gotta go to a sears in the mall, they have everything that's online. I dod get the mityvac at autozone for 10$ cheaper tho. Just need the foodsaver.

kitty is a dood. his wife is a female but she doesn't come on here or blow glass anymore I don't think. it's seems to work out that they use the "female" thing to sell stuff.

Try that one. :) It''s really inexpensive, just drill a hole through the lid on the mason jar and stick a tube through it. :)

I'm glad you got the BHO extractor! I made four of them that day and they've all sold. Time to make a few more.............

the mighty vac is good because it has a gauge that reads the level of vaccum pressure it's under.... BHO realllly starts to bubble around 24 hg if you can get it past 25 it will be a really nice purge

just keep that in mind when considering vac purging

Yeah I like the mityvac n foodsaver idea. I already bought the mityvac.

If I can't find the foodsavers anymore I can order them I guess. My mityvac came with a suction cup and a bunch of other adapters I'm sure I could modify a masson jar. I like the foodsaver canisters idea cuz I don't have to leave the mityvac connected with all that pressiure on it for as long.

I'm so excited. I just bought a 5 bag bubblebag kit too. I'm gonna make some of both and put my oil on my bubble on my buds.

i find sativas bring out more reds and yellows, while indicas bring out greens and blues. ;)
Actually gold fumed pipes turn reddish pinkish orange
Silver fumed pipes turn blueish purple.
Over five years blowing glass. I mix silver and gold to make a slew of colors
