Hello F@lks!

Following up on my previous posts, I wrote the following email to B&S customer service:

"Hello
I have been concerned about all of the plastic used in both tools I have -- Plenty and Mighty.
Can you please specify the type of plastic you use and the manufacturer?"

I got the following reply in about 1 business day:

" thank you for your message.

We have applied the maximum possible care and diligence in all materials which come into contact with the air inhaled. All materials are food-safe and heat-resistant.

Kind regards,"

I'm satisfied with the prompt reply but not really with the answer. Being food-safe and heat-resistant doesn't necessarily mean they are safe for inhalation... It's a green washing reply to me. I'll dig more and eventually call them coz it's customers' right to know the type of plastic they have been using.
Keep u posted

@organic weed, please note that we have a rule about discussing material safety, specifically:
If you have a question or comment regarding material safety, post it in General Discussion. Do not post it in a model thread.

Therefore, please direct any further posts you may have about material safety to the proper area, and do not post about it here in the Mighty thread.

Thanks,

:peace:

I've been wondering this too! I tried searching this thread for FC-187, but got the message that "search keywords were too short, too long, or too common." Searching for "Mighty" on the cheap glass thread turned up a few results, but nothing very helpful.

Likewise all ears!
If the search function here is lacking, there's always Google. Try this: https://www.google.com/search?as_q=...afe=images&as_filetype=&as_rights=&gws_rd=ssl

I've seen generally good feedback about the combo and it's only $42 so I plan on taking the plunge.

Sent my unit for warranty in Oakland today. I emailed them asking if I could add accessories for with my unit but they said they could not do that and I would have to order them seperately

Alright so I made the PonG adapter aka "muzzmod" for my mighty and crafty. I took a few pics to try and simplify things since some see a torch in the original tutorial by @elmomuzz and get scared away without getting the chance to experience another level to an already amazing device. I will try to explain things as best as I can.

I first want to note that a torch or any fire is NOT required. In fact, no modification to your glass adapter is needed unless you get some crappy glass (no offense) and it needs to be smoothed out to your liking. Chances are however, you won't need to touch your glass at all as it will already be smoothed out so don't worry until you actually get the adapter and see that it has rough edges. I got my adapters for $5 each on eBay and they came in excellent and very smooth condition. They could have been sold at $10 each easily. I guess it depends on which seller you get it from, so do your research.

The first thing you will need to do is cut down your donor cooling unit which you will be using for this mod. I already posted this a couple pages back but I will add the pics here as well. I decided to use a dremel instead of a hacksaw to make things a lot easier and faster for myself. All it took was a steady hand and then slowly cutting down into the "tabs" as much as I could (referenced in one of the pics below how to make the slice on its side) and then I slid it from left to right to make a even slice all across. I then flipped the cooling unit over and repeated the same on the other side and the piece you will use for the mod will fall off. The cutting process takes 30 seconds, if that. What is needed after the cut is to sand down the surface that has the "tabs" sticking up to give it a flat smooth surface so the glass adapter can sit flush. For this, I just swapped out the cutting wheel for a sanding wheel and used my dremel again. You can use a coarse grit sand paper instead and get the same results but with more time and effort. The final result should be a flat smooth surface where the adapter will sit.

I took an extra step and decided to widen the hole on the plastic piece to let more air/vapor through. I used a fine diamond bur bit to smoothly widen the hole with the dremel. After I felt satisfied, I stopped and threw the plastic piece in iso for 6 min and then rinsed it under hot water to clean it off.

Now that the plastic part is ready for the adapter, you can focus on the glass. Fortunately for me, the adapters I purchased were already very smooth and needed no filing whatsoever, so I skipped this step altogether. However, for some of you unfortunate ones with rough glass, I included a pic of how you can file the edges to make it smooth with diamond filers instead of needing to use a torch. The torch gives you the smoothest finish and is quite simple itself in the right conditions, but this is another good alternative which will give you a smooth finish as well and it's very simple and easy to do. You also don't need any fancy diamond filers. I got some cheap chinese filers from amazon. I have used them on my solo and air stems and they do the job well. You can even use diamond bits in your dremel if you want instead. It's up to you. After your done, throw the adapter in iso for a few minutes and then rinse it in hot water to clean it off.

Once the glass and plastic is ready, you will need to mount them together and apply the jb weld. The easiest way to do this is with a trigger clamp. I ended up using a 42" heavy duty clamp which I already had out for a wooden dresser I recently built. You want to place the glass ontop of the plastic piece and clamp them down together. Don't tighten it too much so you can shift them around a bit to line it up the way you want it to look once the epoxy is dried and cured. Once you have everything lined up, tighten the clamp until tight enough not to move. Now for the jb weld, I used a small ceramic bowl with aluminium foil covering it. Squeeze your jb weld with an even amount from each tube and mix it together. It will become an all black paste. I used 2 toothpicks together to carefully apply the epoxy but this is up to you what you want to use as an applicator. Just note that the epoxy is messy but the good thing is, it wipes clean off the glass if still fresh so you can clean up if you spill a bit or put too much around the adapter. One trick you can do which I didnt take the time to do so myself is to use masking tape to put around the base of the adapter so you have a clean line after applying the epoxy. Just make sure to remove the tape a couple minutes after you apply the weld while its still fresh. You want to make a full solid seal around the seam between the glass and plastic. Make sure you DO NOT get any jb weld inside of the airpath where the vapor will travel as you can inhale harmful fumes. Apply only on the outside. After your done applying the epoxy, let it sit clamped until it's dried. I personally left it clamped overnight.

Once the epoxy has dried and cured, unclamp the adapter and you have yourself a PonG or "muzzmod" as many call it. Enjoy!

I hope this post helps some of you intimidated to attempt this mod. It's actually really easy if you think about. Cut your cooling unit, sand it down, clamp the glass adapter to the plastic piece and apply the epoxy to it. If you by chance received rough glass, file it down a bit to smooth it up and that's it. Let the epoxy dry and your done!

Lol I know some of you guys love that resin. It's not for me though. I get grossed out, idk what it is lol. I'm not saying it's gross though, it's just not for me. Maybe if I tried it I would feel differently about it, who knows lol.

The reclaim tastes like crap if you try and vape it. I put mine into caps and eat them.

Getting it dirty won't effect the taste too much. Trust me. Mine is overdue for a cleaning! I usually let it get so dirty the oil strings like hot pizza cheese when I open that shit. It's the best!

Use ever clear to soak too, I know you hate the taste of alcohol, but at least you can drink the stuff, can't say the same for iso

Really? I thought the more resin in the cu, the more the vapor won't taste as good? It wouldn't heat up the resin that's there already and mask the taste of the vapor a bit?

I don't dislike alcohol in general, it's just vodka and anything that smells or tastes like it. Iso has a crazy potent vodka smell imo. I had a insane experience with vodka as a teenager and been disgusted by it ever since lol. I like dark liquor however (remy, henny and jack d).

The reclaim tastes like crap if you try and vape it. I put mine into caps and eat them.

Lol that's what I thought. Reclaim isn't meant to taste good and if it has a bad aftertaste I'd rather not even try it. I'm never out of sour so I don't care for it that much honestly.

I have a huge j hook mouthpiece, I can use that with the PonG adapter and let the resin build up in it and then try some from that. Let's see.

The cleanliness of the heating unit is more important to the taste than the cooling unit. I have noticed no off tastes using gunked CU'S just decreased draw resistance.

Taste is subjective. I actually don't mind the taste of vaping reclaim or dabbing it. But to ME all dabs taste the same (pretty much) if fully purged. I have dab connoisseur friends that swear by taste and describe the tastes and whatnot...that shit tastes like dabs to me.

FTR I can't stand alcohol. Don't drink.never have been a drinker, probably never will be. I get wasted way too easy and hate the feeling of alcohol intoxication. Dark is the worst too, hits me like a ton of bricks. I stick to cannibus

IMO, the more resin in it, the more resin will get stuck, due to sticky surface, and you lose potency (and flavour) and get draw resistance, especially if it get accumulated in the mouthpiece.

I have not let my cooling unit get to the point where the mouthpiece is gunked. I usually let it get to the point where it strings like cheese when opening the CU, when I see that I scrape as much goo as I can and then iso soak for 10 minutes...maybe I should step my gunk game up and really test the limits...

Your welcome. I'm glad you found it helpful.

This was my theory as well. That's why I feel it's better to clean it after it starts to get sticky and not let it build up. The only reason I wouldnt clean it as often is if I were trying to build up resin to vape it. Other than that, I see no good reason not to clean the cu frequently after what you said.

Now that I tested the boiling water method, I get the urge to clean it even sooner than every 6 hours of use because I'm not worried about it getting damaged/discolored or masked with an aftertaste.

Haha, you should wait until you can't even open the cu from all the gunk lol.

Here's a pic of my mighty with the j hook attached to it. I can see it collecting a good amount of resin. Maybe I should start collecting and give it a shot?...

I probably will once I start using the mighty again! I also like the muzzmod...I would make one, but I own no dremel :( that j hook looks overkill too...hope you don't have shit to do :rofl:

I know this is slightly off topic, but lately I have found the lily/vapman combo really enjoyable. Faster sessions and less to worry about (if you can use two hands)

I'll probably pick it up sometime before the week is up though.

Tell me about it lol. I was amazed when I opened it the first time. I almost immediately wanted to write it off and put it away somewhere I'll never take it out from. It seemed ridiculously huge, but I decided to try it since I have it anyway and you actually get used to it. It does a great job at cooling I'll tell u that lol.

Sorry to hear about the lack of a dremel. Maybe you have a hacksaw or any serrated blade would be adequate honestly. It's plastic after all. Your required to sand the surface flat regardless so a clean cut isnt necessary. You just need to improvise lol.

Just finished cleaning my CU and got a pretty good glob of oil and ABV/herb mix. I've tried cutting the oil pad in half and applying it to the pad topped with herb and got pretty damn baked. My question is what else can be stuffed in their to apply the gobs to? Cutting the oil pad was messy and when I was done the spent glob was still there and difficult to remove from the pad. Has anyone tried just dropping a glob in between layers of herb? Any other materials that can be used to apply the oil globs to?

I've just been sandwiching it with herb/flowers, sometimes mixing it with kief beforehand so I can handle it.

I haven't bothered using ISO on my CU yet (only the screen), I've just been scraping the excess out.

I personally clean my CU's when I start to taste a flavor impact. That is usually after a dozen bowls, give or take.

damn, i agree with you on keeping that fresh draw resistance and taste from a clean CU, but that's a lot of cleaning

every dozen bowls do you iso wash? or just manually degunk it.

I have 2 CU in rotation. 5-10 minutes soak is ISO, swab the corners, rinse with hot water, and done. I've never let a CU get crazy dirty, but it's always a pretty fast process to clean when you don't let it get gunker up. But I'm not a fan of reclaim.

Attention everybody
I just received an email from massdrop stating that they were no longer going to sell vaporizers on their website "due to the current landscape domestically, and internationally"
I cant believe there wont be anymore vapes on massdrop!
Point is, if you were thinking about buying A Mighty, now is the time, there is 1 more day left on the drop.\

It's not really that much cleaning. If it's not that dirty then cleaning will only take a few minutes and no effort at all. With the iso its so simple but now I switched to boiling water (much better imo) and I still clean it just as frequent and enjoy it. I personally don't get lazy to clean it, it's actually the opposite. I wait for the day to come when I need to clean it again lol. I like the purest tasting vapor I can get and I don't care about reclaim. Cleaning it is also good for the unit. Its like changing the air filter in your car when it's dirty.
