That's kind of funny that your disgusted by a nail and torch, but happy to use what most would consider a crackpipe. I've used both and both work great properly used. But because of my last statement I can never bring myself to take the glass bulb pipe anywhere outside of my house, and certainly not to a novice user, who immediately gathers a negative opinion right off the bat.

Like I say, everything in life is perspective, and everyone has their own.

@DabComa I have to jump in. I've never used a nail myself and I've used cannabis a very long time. I use concentrates occasionally. I understand not wanting to get too close to something blazing red hot when you are high at the time. I think I might put my eye out.

I use a Enano and a Solo. I don't consider them crack pipes and I don't think most FCers do either. I've never used a crack pipe so I guess I wouldn't really know. Each of us have free will and will do as we please. Nobody is knocking what you do, we all have different likes and dislikes.

EDIT
I never said that you used crack. Just let it go.:lol: not trying to cause an issue. Sorry if I offended you.:) That's right we all have our way of doing things.

Wow, I'm being accused of smoking crack, because I pointed out what anyone on the street will tell you regardless of their drug history or affiliation, that that specific pipe has a negative reputation, no matter who you ask... And if you can't be around an object thats hot that takes up about 1 cubic centimeter of space, I think there's bigger issues at work then just being high.

Really though, can we hold ourselves to just a little higher standard of intelligence, is that to much to ask?

My philosophy is whatever way works or doesn't work for you should be your guide. Just do the stuff you like to do. You gave it a try: it's not your cup-o-tea. For me, dense, concentrate hits makes it feel as if my lungs got coated with gunk. Not a pleasant feeling for me. Although I gave up tobacco years ago, I wouldn't be surprised if my 30 year previous habit did some damage. I like mixing 1 part concentrate to 3 parts Puff Majic or EJMix. Doesn't mean everyone should do it that way. We don't all drive the same car: we don't have to agree on what is right for concentrate consumption.

I still use bats (small, glass, individual hit pipes) every now and then. It doesn't make me a bad guy.

I'm sorry for your negative experience with concentrates. Dabbing oil is my favorite way of medicating compared to all the rest. I've started smoking blunts when I was 13 and moved on to joints, eventually vaporizing and then dabbing concentrates in my late 20s. I use to vaporize heavy with the ssv but I noticed that my lungs felt more congested when I did so I stopped. I moved onto concentrates and never looked back. It's quick, I get tremendous flavor..way more than smoking or vaping, I need only 1-2 dabs to feel medicated, and it's always a smooth low temp hit with my enail set around 550-600 on a Quartz banger. If you're coughing your lungs out after a dab you probably need a smaller dab, lower temp or better quality product. And pens suck, I use to own a gpen, I would always have to refill it, they would always leak oil, crap out after awhile and never gave me the type of clouds that I want. Pens will never compare to a hit off a proper rig & enail.

Sorry If I couldn't get to everyone but I atleast finished replying to page 1.. whew!! Anyhow I managed to get pictures to work but I just copied and pasted the code from imgur without using the insert pic button on the edit screen. Can anyone explain how to properly do this? Sorry I'm new to all of this.

That's some hard luck, I never dabbed, with that being said I have some good vape oil that comes preloaded in an automizer that is supreme. Since I started vaping it has been life. I can literally vape anywhere. I have played in a poker tournament with some of LAPD's finest vaped right in front of them and they said "trying to kick that nicotine huh?" yes was my reply and was floating in the clouds. I dont know if I can post images of what I use to get some input interested in seeing if any of you guys have the same se ups.

Just like you.. I prefer simplicity and convenience.. In other words.. Those preloaded and disposable vapor tanks like Eureka, Absolute Extracts, and Pure Gold. Also.. the cops were really that clueless? How were you able to keep a level head about you man? I would have been so paranoid.. forget about me even trying to concentrate on the card game! Haha!

Idk maybe your not dabbing right.:shrug:

If you have a dome and nail set up like this

9O1d4rF.jpg


Here is how to dab.
1st load your dab onto your dab tool, paper clip, etc. and set aside
2nd remove the glass dome and heat the nail until it is red hot I mean glowing red hot
Replace the dome and place your dab on the top of the nail while hitting it.

Cough your ass off and repeat!!

Thanks for that.. If anything it reassures me that I did "basically" do it right. Of course I might have heated the nail up too much or too little, I had way too much dab on the tool (I know it) and honestly didn't get a thick cloud. What I got was more comparable to a thick cloud of dry herb vapor from my plenty.. nothing less and nothing more..

Going to echo and say the first dab is bliss. It's such an overload of thc. You really should have gotten blown.

Something you should have been told or should have intuited is that shatter doesn't stay shatter because it's not shatter (not really). Shatter is stable at room temp. I've gotten that. I've also gotten the gooey stuff you described. It's not the same and whenever I get it I treat it by putting it into the fridge and then putting into silicone containers for dabbing purposes.

I didn't get blown away.. Thanks for the confirmation that it is ok to put concentrates in the fridge inside a silicone container. If I ever come back to concentrates It will either be when electric nails become more affordable or vape pens that actually work become better through technology. Having complete control over the temperature alone eases half my worries right there.

Here's the one I use when I am not using my enail. I know you have already blown a bunch of cash, but it's only another 14 bucks and should be super easy to use. http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/3mm-thick-quartz-banger-nail-female10mm-ground/233827551.html

So it appears that this is basically a skillet? Would this be the easiest method out there?

@Socks And Sandals

what part of the country are you in? if yer ever in STL let me know. ill hand you a device you can simply hit the button and get massive rips from that will knock off your sox... and sandals.

btw welcome to FC!

Thanks for the Welcome man. I'm in Los Angeles county.. where is STL? Don't travel much but I'd definitely be down if I was ever in the area! Hell If anyone is here from the San Fernando Valley I'd be up for a crash course!

Damn @2clicker beat me to it...

I am also under the influence that your problem is your concentrate supplier... Unless it was around 120°F outside "shatter" , at least true shatter, should never perform physically as you've described... Leading me to believe that the product itself was of poor quality... It's called shatter for a reason, it should break similar to a jolly rancher. One of the best judgements of quality by eye is opacity... Can you see through it. If not , it's garbage, generally, as a rule of thumb for flower ran material, now, if you use trim ran material, it's a whole 'nother beast, it can come in with a tinge of green or brownish, at which point you have to revert to the torch test, where you put a dab on the end of a dabber and hit it gently with the flame from a torch, if it sizzles or you get fireworks, you got bad shit, ideally your looking for a clean smooth melting action.

As others have mentioned, dabbing is absolutely a technique. You have to learn to properly use the setup that you have... And ironically enough, a dome and nail is one of the hardest setups to use because the nail is small and thermally doesn't act well, so it will heat up fast and cool down faster, on top of that, if you put too much material on the dabber and put it on the nail too fast, the majority of your material will melt down the nail and not vape. For new people I would highly suggest titanium domeless nails, purely for there simplicity. They are heavier and thus thermally conduct better, so while it takes a little longer to heat (~20sec.) it will hold its heat longer, and being domeless, allows for better accommodation of dab size , as generally, product loss due to runoff is almost null and void.

A pen, is simply for portability, those who don't want to carry a torch and rig, say like in a state that carries a mandatory minimum of 5 years per gram of concentrates ( * cough * NY ). While it won't offer that out of the park feeling of a properely capped rig dab will, it will still do the job, and offers extreme discretion, which for obvious reasons is very appealing to many. It's simply just your out and about setup. The rig is where it's at. As others suggested, your goal, shall you try again, is to go for something, anything, quartz , glass, titanium, Domeless is key. It's much, much more friendly for novice users. After that, find somewhere else to get your goods, or just sit down with a little vape one evening, and read some of the threads here on doing runs, and different techniques, you could easily make your own product, just as long as you heed each and every single warning, you will have nothing but smooth sailing and clean product.

And as for people hating, that's definitely not this site. This is an amazing community to be a part of with extremely friendly and knowledgeable people who are more then willing to help out any fellow vaper in need.

It truly is awesome to be part of such a wonderful community, and hopefully you come back around and give concentrates a shot, I don't think you'll be disappointed once you figure out what's going wrong :)

Thanks for all that information man! I thought that's what Shatter meant.. something along the lines of glass similar to Walt and Jesse's Crystal Meth from Breaking Bad maybe?

I've never heard of a nail and dome being the most difficult set up until coming here. I was told I bought a Titanium Nail and I uploaded some pictures to IMGUR but I can't for the life of me figure out how to post them. I've done this before in the past on forums but it's just not working.

As far as pens go... I can't say for sure but I don't think I've ever got high from them. I'm not sure if tolerance has anything to do with it but I would still prefer not using a torch of any kind.. Maybe Enails would be in my future if anything. After reading your post and a few others, If I come back to this, I'll definitely be going with the domeless route!

When I'm ready I'm always going to come back to this thread to cross reference it again for sure! Thanks man! :)

i'm in a medical pot state and i keep looking into concentrates but haven't bought any yet. i used to sell honey oil back in the 70s. great tasting gold and red oil. it would come in little gram bottles. i'm assuming some of the oil available today is the same type stuff (??). after looking into pens and the torch and nail set up (NO FREAKING WAY!!!), i've been thinking, i'll just try the good old fashioned way.

reading this thread, i'm no longer interested in trying a pen or anything else that is finicky. i'm allergic to throwing money away. i'm like the OP, i'll end up throwing that shit out and yelling it at! :)

I think we share the same apprehensions.. we don't like the whole torch and rig thing and just generally prefer something more simple instead. However...

Please don't give up on dabbing because of my experience and my thread here bro. Sure this was my experience but it doesn't have to be yours. Of course this a personal decision but my intention was never to steer anyone away from dabbing or concentrates. If anything this thread was just a place for me to vent my frustrations and learn what I did wrong.

Anyhow, at least give a shot bro. Don't let my little old thread scare you! Believe me I hate wasting cash too so I definitely know where you are coming from!

Again, I really appreciate the comments. I finally managed to upload some pics to give you guys an idea of exactly what I was using:

MwCG1Tl.jpg


cnIORv7.jpg


9GghZrs.jpg


I was told this was a Titanium Nail when I bought it for 15 bucks. I also noticed that when I went to place the dab on the nail the nail wiggles around a bit as well. If you asked me the glass dome really made it difficult. Anyhow, just yesterday I knocked the bong over and broke my dropstem that the conversion piece fits onto. That's another 15 or 20 bucks I'll have to spend right there now.. even if I want use it for flowers.

I still have a decent size of that shatter left. I know how you guys feel about pens but I loaded 1/4 of it into my wax pen here:

YTRq9fw.jpg


This was a new Atomizer that came with a glass dome, mouthpiece, and 2 extra atomizers. The difference between these and the old ones I had is that these actually have a screen over the coil as you can see. It seems like it prevents the concentrate from sipping through the screen onto the coil though. Also for some strange reason the shatter.. (now melted oil right) stays stuck to the sides as you can see here. How long will concentrate stay good stuck to the sides here if I don't hit it? It seems as if my pen is not melting this away and instead is pushing it out to the sides of the center. In order to even get a decent hit I have to turn my ego c twist to nearly 4 volts. Yes I'm feeling something, but it isn't even comparable to the feeling/high I get with disposable prefilled oil cartridges like Pure Gold, Absolute Extracts and Eureka.

And speaking of Eureka oil carts.. What can I do with this? I have 2 of these one Eureka and one Monkey Oil. Although i can't get anymore vapor from it.. as you can see there is plenty of visible oil in there that the wicks aren't sucking up. Do any of you guys use disposable vape tanks like these? How do I salvage the oil and how would I consume it? I've had these now for 3 months now.. Will they get old?

F2lute0.jpg


I'm not arguing that Pens aren't as good as rigs but I have to be honest.. I just don't dig the whole torch thing.. which probably means I should be looking into an enail or battery powered portable enails in the future... but not without making sure this works for me first.

Do you guys think I should get a new dropstem so I can try again or stick with my pen for the remaining shatter I have left? Will pens ever work in the future as technology improves and what is the best pen right now just curious?

That first pen picture in your last post is bad (in my opinion!) Only because it has that metal screen on the top, it takes to long for any decent amount of oil to reach the coil at any one time. If you can manage to pop that screen off somehow and expose the heating element, most likely a coil looking apparatus, and then manage to get a nice glob of oil with a tool onto said coil, then you should be in for quite a nice ride, it should work great for a bit at that point.

As to how long the oil will last on the sides, just about indefinitely depending on if you keep it in your pocket, it can pick up lint from the inside of your pocket which isn't desirable. When I clean my atomizer with ISO I run it through some SS mesh to catch any fine unwanted particles, and then I get plenty of good oil back that I can use, but I only do this say every thirty days, when it's real thick with residual buildup. But I also use my pen religiously, probably more often then my glass, even though I like the glass rig, it's not always easy to carry around. Which is also why I decided to build my own pen rather then go with a pre built pen. The difference is really night and day, and anyone who says you can't get rig quality hits off a pen

( sorry in advance I know this is gonna send some hate my way)

Is either lying, or has never never had rip off of a dual coil 1ohm " fog machine" at 30watts.
A properly built pen can deliver amazing hits, while at the same time using up the same or more then a glass rig, just because it can be so easy and convenient to just whip it out and suck down a hit or two, just about anywhere you want too. I've smoked in theatres before, just as one example, you just have to be carefull, you can't go crazy with it.
Hope it helps

Your nail looks like a decent enough set up. :shrug:

As for those cartridges unless you burnt out the coil they should still be hitting. I'm able to use the Eureka cartridges until the wicks are almost dry but I only use them when I have to fly out of state. While there aren't like ripping a bong load they do work for me. If your coil is burnt out break the bottom off and drip it on some weed.

I don't care for the globe type pens mainly because I feel like I'm sucking to hard and I never feel like I'm getting a big enough hit. That stuff on the sides is fine to use later.

And here I was thinking the screen would actually help? Is this a new design with these wax kits that come with the dome, fitting and 3 atomizers? Or is this something out of the ordinary? I'm not offended at all and welcome honest opinions. I honestly thought it was better to have the screen since I could never get any of it out from the bottom of the coil when it drips down there. I basically hold the pen upright while hitting it and periodically take the mouthpiece off to see the concentrate drip on the sides and then I kinda tilt the pen while hitting it. Not sure if this is right or not.

I have no idea how to clean atomizers. I've always just replaced them and only had to replace a set of 3 once so i really didn't spend too much. Seems like finding basic information is daunting to me which is why find it a chore to get into rebuilding stuff and mods of these cloud chasing vape pens like you mentioned above. I'm sure you could get some nice clouds with a battery and coil like you described and to be honest.. I would still prefer that method over heating a nail with a torch if technology ever improves with the exception of an affordable enail of course. I do have the ejuice tank that came with my ego c twist and use that to vape my Doc Holiday Villian Vapers with 0% nicotine but after another week I'm retiring ejuice for good as I've officially quit cigs for good after 2 weeks. Hell, I even had problems with the juice leaking into the mouthpiece and never even took my pen out with me in the car because I always feared it would leak all over the place if placed on it's side for even a few minutes.

I just want to know if by hitting it upright and tricking the protection of the battery by counting to 8 or 9 and then releasing the button and pressing it again... usually 3 or 4 of these to get one hit! I also slightly tilt it watching the oil drip around the sides (it never falls in the center) if I'm doing it right? I toy around between 3.8 and 4.2 volts. I understand this isn't rocket science but I'm very unsure about myself especially after all this.

Hey man.. Yeah I listened to your advice and tried hitting that Girl Scout Cookies again and you're right I was able to get more out of it by holding it straight upright. The taste started to taste charred and I barely get out any more vapor so I guess that means it's spent? How would I open this up again? I would start with the mouthpiece and then try to unscrew the bottom if it doesn't work would I break it open with a hammer with a light tap? Then what would I do with the oil? Or should I wait till I have at least 4 or 5 spent oil carts first to make it worthwhile?

I just grab the bottom metal ring and the top and wiggle it back n forth, should separate easily. I leave the mp on and turn the cartridge upside down, you may have to hold the metal ring with a pair of pliers but they usually are easy to get apart.

I'm up for that but I have to be honest. It's been quite some time since I got high with anyone other than my girl. To dab with a complete and total stranger on the internet would make anyone uneasy to a certain degree.. especially when I really don't like getting high anywhere else but my home and mancave.

Doesn't matter... I would make an exception though.. who am I kidding! :cool:

Just don't feel sorry for me though bud. I tried and all it did was make my heart flutter. I hate to bring up my past but lets just say.. it really reminded me of something else. And.. that was a mediocre hit as well. To be honest with you.. what pisses me off most about all this isn't actually because I failed my first time.. It's because I've never felt anything substantial from concentrates EVER bro. Not in Pens, not in my Plenty, Not with this Rig and not even dressing a bowl to combust!:bang:

I have to be honest.. Just the fact that concentrates have shown me nothing impressive at all as of this point and the fact that I absolutely detest and honestly FEAR the idea of handling any of this gooey shit again and getting any of it on my hands and equipment again, I've kinda determined it's not worth the cost and effort to even try anymore.

Honestly if I ever do get the chance to dab properly with someone who knows exactly what they are doing on a nice rig and nail.. I would jump at the chance!

Hate to be this negative but it's just how I feel bro. I'm not saying no, forever and final.. I'm just saying this has been pushed so far back in my long list of priorities I doubt I'll ever try again. I could be wrong though who knows..

One thing I've found out over the years of concentrates usage is that concentrates just aren't for everyone, especially people with already high sensitivity to thc already. And everything effects everyone differently. So if buds are doing the trick for you, then just stick with what works, like my parents used to tell me, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, lol :)

2nd try didn't go so good....

I had to edit what i wrote because well.. I think i just did it! Still charred up and I wasted it yet again though. That's what pisses me off.

This was about 3x more intense than my first attempt! And yes.. a thick cloud. Ok it's INTENSE!!! I wouldn't say uncomfortable.. just a lil too heavy maybe? And yes I got the heart flutter again, big time. And I still don't know what I'm doing wrong with the dab.

But hey at least I finally got to feel it! I'm happy for that!:ko:

You should get some syringes to empty spent tanks, like these:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DXPQIFU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

Also, it sounds like the only place in your life for concentrates may be making your own tank juice, as discussed at great length here:
http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/my-secret-to-thc-e-cig-pg-liquid-potent-effective-cheap-easy.6287/
( the bullet points are: get EJMix or Puff Majic, warm 2-3ml in microwave for 8-10sec, add 1g concentrate, stir, suck up with syringe and shove in a tank. I love the Aspire K1 but any working tank will do )

PS: those tanks with the long stringy wicks typically come apart at the mouthpiece IME

Thank you for link to that thread. After taking a look at it it's clear as day in his description and the equipment needed. I have a plastic syringe that I've been using for my Villian Vaper E Juice but I need a much smaller in diameter one. I'm going to start twisting the mouthpiece off first when get to doing this but I kinda thought maybe I should wait till I have saved up nearly 4 or 5 1gram tanks? And after I extract the oil where do I store it and how exactly can it be used? I can't just put it in an Ecig tank can I? Sorry for being a total noob.. I'm still learning something new every day here at FC though!

I'd really have to give the old ball and chain a long pep talk before doing anything like this in her kitchen though. Maybe I'll get to this in the future after I deal with my ABV and hopefully make my first batch of brownies!

I usually just save up 5-10 empties then use one of those 3ml syringes to pull all the oil out of them and dump it into a tank that is just for that particular oil, since it's mixed random flavors and somewhat dark stuff, possibly slightly decarbed.
I use regular ecig gear, I would think most stuff would work fine. If you have a disposable around that still works (like the one you posted a picture of) you could just combine whatever leftover oil you have into that. I should mention though that that style of tank is IMO one of the worst designs for our purposes, due to those long stringy wicks. They just soak up oil but it can't travel up them like ecig juice does.

A pretty goofy thing I like to do is use the syringe of tank dribbles to "lace" bowls of flower in my vaporizer lol. Just a drop or two will soak into the flower, not enough to run into the device and cause any problems. I hesitate to combust the juice, since I have no scientific understanding of what happens to glycerins and glycols when burned and inhaled. If you buy tanks with pure oil it's not an issue, but any additives should give pause.

I never thought of reusing the same disposable tank. As long as the mechanism in the atomizer still works I don't see why not right? Plus It will save me 20 bucks on a whole new ejuice tank. Btw, are you sure a standard Ejuice tank will work since Cannabis Oil is much thicker than that? It seemed to work for you but did you run into any troubles at all with it not vaping?

I also heard from multiple MMJ dispensaries as well as my local vape bar and head shop that they aren't a fan of Eureka's "Wick Style" system either and for the same reason you mentioned.

Anyhow so far I only have 2 1gram Eureka Tanks and I'm trying me some Absolute Extracts, Pure Gold and Honey Vapes that my dispensary owner told me he was getting huge clouds out of. Although the oils are going to differ in color and thickness do you still think mixing different brands is an ok idea?

AFAIK all cannabis juice tanks are meant for ejuice, that's why you need a product like EJMix or Puff Majic, to thin the oil enough to wick properly. I generally mix at a 2:1 ratio so I can puff on it all day without getting too blasted and forgetting my chores lol, which leaves it plenty thin enough to wick.

I personally always mix my leavings, I call it "fruit cocktail". It's all just bud milk with maybe just a dash of glycol, I don't see any harm in mixing it...
