Oh, I totally agree lwien, and I essentially use the same storage method as you. But, there are some who like to store under partial vacuum and (many) others who cannot store such stuff in their refrigerator. I felt it might be a convenient alternative to vacuum storage, and potentially...

I'm curious if anyone has tried purging the oxygen & moisture laden air in their storage container with an inert gas? You can buy a small (but pricey - $10 to $14) can of pressurized argon gas called Bloxygen http://www.bloxygen.com. It's available online and at local woodworking stores like...

The PDs that I have handled all have had that nice feel to them. I think Tom has commented before on his tool sharpening. He's likely at least as skilled at tool sharpening and honing as he is at actually turning the wood, IMHO. I too have all but retired my DBV in favor of my log vape...

It's good that we can so easily amuse ourselves (right??).

Good analogy. In the vapor tube bowl, the tiny, tiny areas of the ground material where water is still evaporating will remain at about 212 until any remaining water boils away. Then, the vaporization of the desired compounds from the completely dried material begins. That's the way I...

There's no way to look cool doing this, but if you really want to see your vapor trail...... I have one of those multi-LED headlights that I sometimes use for reading. It's adjustable, so if I set the angle all the way down to illuminate the area I see through the bottom of my bifocals, the...

In addition to my whip(tm) style vape, I've been using two "makes" of log vapes in the past 12 months, one mine, one owned by a close friend. I have never been less than completely satisfied with either of the log vapes, using what either of us would consider "reg" or "mid" grade (or possibly...

HiC, My scale is holding up fine, but there's no reason it shouldn't. I handle it with care, I never overload it, and I always put it back in its original (now a bit tattered) box. But, I'm probably being a bit overprotective; the case appears to be sturdy, and I probably could safely store...

Myrtle, your material also should be quite dry for best results. Otherwise, water will be one of the first major compounds to be boiled away before the desirable components will be effectively vaporized. I believe this is especially important in using a log vape, where you're drawing a fairly...

See posts #4 and #6 above. :)

This is an interesting challenge. I keep thinking about what my dad (a Parkinson's patient) was and was not able to do with his hands in his final months. I think even his trying to learn to use my DBV or a similar whip(tm) style vape with an open-ended bowl would have been very frustrating...

Last year when I was planning for my recovery from surgery, I got an extra set of stems for my log vape (total of six). I would load all six in the morning using the straw-suction method, and keep them in a short, wide mouth glass on my bedside table (bowl up = fresh; bowl down = spent). The...

I didn't realize that I needed a scale until I finally got one. I use mine regularly to monitor my personal inventory and consumption, but I probably use it just as often for unanticipated purposes (spices, teas, one stamp or two?). So, absolutely get yourself a scale, any decent scale; you'll...

After reading what others have posted about the MZ and WDZ, I would not hesitate to buy either of these vaporizers / diffusers. I believe they are functionally more alike than they are different. It's my understanding from this forum that both Rick (MZ) and Todd (WDZ) are able to work with you...

I'm guessing that there are quite a few old hippies who lurk and/or post here. I'm 59.

Spend a few minutes looking at http://www.csaceliacs.org/. There's a lot of helpful info there. We found avoiding gluten was harder than we imagined because of the "hidden" gluten in many prepared foods and common kitchen ingredients. Just because something is "organic", does not mean the item...

Duh, Have you considered that you may have Celiac disease? My partner developed symptoms in her early 40's, but she was not diagnosed for several years. It is a disease that few people (including doctors, apparently) have even heard of, although it is estimated that 1 in 133 people have it...

Many of us tokers living east of the Rocky Mountains (especially in many parts of the South) just have to tolerate the intolerance of others. Where I live, there's simply no way I would go out in public wearing a tee shirt with "Fuck" clearly printed on it. However, "www.fuckcombustion.com"...

When you fully inserted the wand into the GG joint, apply SLIGHT rotational torque to the connection. Again, the slightest rotational torque is all you should need or want to keep the GG joint connected.
