Sputnik II

[Tachyon]

Sputnik 1 fizzled on the launchpad, so here's number two. It's pretty well put together, the one mistake I think I made was drilling the top hole for the soldering iron very far from center (I deliberately tried to shoot from an angle that would downplay this) but aside from that it's cool. I actually should have cleaned off the fingerprints first too.

Could you explain a vaporizer to me?

[Tachyon]

Why certainly young man.

Rather than wastefully (and painfully for the lungs) burning the vegetable matter to be inhaled as in a bong, hookah, pipe, blunt, or joint, a vaporizer heats it to the boiling point of active ingredient. This allows the user to injest a lot more of the useful product with quite a bit less tar and harmful byproducts.

HOw's that working out for you Tach? Is the soldering iron working at the right temp and everything? I looked into some of the specifications of a soldering iron and a vaporizer and the heating ranges are about the same but I'm curious as to it's actual functionality for this usage.

[Tachyon]

I tested it once, but the test was inconclusive. We didn't use enough weed or leave it on long enough to be totally vaporized, and we aborted the test because we were impatient. Got wicked baked that day though.

Further testing required.

How often do you test?

[Nod]

Maybe the soldering iron isn't heating up fast enough. You could try using a higher quality iron. That might work out for you a little better. Especially if it's one of the irons with some kind of heat range selection.

I doubt that a cheap R.S. iron would vaporise the bud instead of lighting it, or stay at a specific temperature. I'd rather not be inhaling any metal fumes, glass only for me. Try making a lightbulb vaporiser, from a clear 100w bulb. You might even be able to rig some sort of electric heating element to it instead of using a bic.
