Yo, by "bottom" can you describe exactly which end of the cap you're heating? Near the de-bowler or the end with the bimetalic bit in it and the "rim" that looks like an extractor could remove it from a firearm if it were a shell casing? If you get what I mean.
edit: seen a lot of people say aim for the N in the logo, but I was fucking around and just torched a bowl. Pretty convenient how you can just blow the abv out lol.
You go any further than two* big hits on a standard cap?
I came so close to setting that bowl on fire that I had my non-smoking housemate come sniff the vape for me just to make sure. The ABV at the tip was right on the point of scorched, probably loaded too much in.
Gonna switch out the brulé torch for one of my uh, more classic utensils.
edit: typo'd
smh my head I dunno what I was thinking.
They also have the silicone B with a half bowl tip designed for one hit extraction where spinning is optional. It is also shaped to natively fit in a 14mm downstem, although I have not personally tried it.
Honestly should probably have saved my money and gone with this but the silicone just doesn't appeal on a tactile level. When it's cold this thing is fun to fingerfuck.
fuck yeah, thanks. I'll give your technique a go during my next session.
My tolerance must be rock bottom right now I'm still pretty lit, didn't pack it properly the first bowl and tipped it early, nearly combusted the second one (came so close to a teardown and clean fail, phew) very uneven ABV. I'll figure it out.
yeah I was thinking about getting an FMJ or smn, but I think it's wiser to learn the vape first then upgrade if I need to foolproof it for friends and/or simplify/perfect one hit extractions.
I'm messing around with the M7 XL.
land so shitty the Vikings sent exiles to it.
I think probably a lot of ecosystem n shit rely on Greenland and its exploitation would probably be pretty fucking bad for the planet. I dunno, just a feeling I get.
yeah if I wasn't in a hurry to get something that won't get me blazing it again I'd try wait til there was a sale with an induction heater. Looks fucking sick now I've hit it with the torch tho. Unboxed that Case Hardened skin.
Oh no now the threads collapse and wont open. I need to get more creative.
edit: wait nobody ever REALLY replies to that thing fuck em. we ball.
Yeah it's a finicky little fucker. I got lit but I think I need to try a different torch with it. Idk.
YO this song was a hard carry during my early transition.
good shit.
edit: I totally thought this was a DP track. wew. Love The Coup.
I would hold that against my crotch to take the photo, personally.
I am indeed generally trying to get completely toasted.
It was a tough call not spending the extra for one of those magnet cap remover / weed stash / abv container dealies. I'm glad I restrained cuz we've got unexpected expenses dropped in our lap, but yeah that's on the get next list.
Luckily before I got soft I did enough food service / "kitchen" work that many of my finger tips are basically like a kung fu warrior- very little nerve sensation. Dated a chef way back too, a lot of her young hard ass attitude rubbed off on me. Long story short I can just pop the cap off with the tip of the torch, reload and it's very little risk or discomfort getting the cap back on n situated. Still, the contraption is available locally and would make things easier, no sense in ongoing damage. Haven't burnt myself yet tho, heheh might change my cavalier tune.
Lol just remembered getting a disturbingly large burn working at a kebab shop and the boss freaking out and I'm like "BURN SPRAY? WHAT THE FUCK IS BURN SPRAY LET ME GET BACK TO WORK" lmao
Anyway. Thanks for the diagram.
