The Magic-Flight Box

[HighlyEducatedScholar]

thanks Joint-Specialist. and i don't think i'll be over doing it seeing as how the hash reclaim from my grinder is the size of a pebble of like half a tic-tac lol.

I think there is a little misunderstanding here. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough, but I already know that if you don't draw there will be vapor leaking. I should have mentionned that there is more vapor going out from that hole than from the drawing hole (in fact I always start drawing my hits before there is any going out from the drawing hole). About the old air channel, you guys must be right because I bought my box on August 2010.

What I meant is between micro hits, there is clearly a cloud of vapor going out of my box and it isn't a negligible quantity. I can't use my box at the moment (been dry since the weekend), but I will try to get one of my friends to use it so I can post a video.

Thanks for the quick answers.

One more thing, I find that if you swing the lid around and push down on the lid spring a bit you can adjust the tension. My box leaked from the sides and the back a bit but now has a much better seal if the springs nice and tight

I also do this, but I noticed that it slowly decreases the tension in time too. So if you want it tight, you have to push it repeatedly. I worry if it will slowly break down the inner structure in the steel so it will break in time?

Yeah I do that maybe once a month.

I will try cleaning it and see what happens.

has anyone tried to vape hash out of their LB? i have this small piece of hash after i did a ISO wash with my grinder but wasn't sure if vaping hash would damage a MFLB in some way.

Yes, you can vape hash in the LB. But you need to be very careful and use a technique appropriate for the type of hash you have. Never put hash into the MFLB by itself. You want to mix it with herb. If your hash is very dry, crumble it into as fine a powder as you can and simply mix a small pinch in with a trench of finely ground herb. You want to avoid letting the hash melt into the screen. If your hash is moist mix it with herb or ABV before loading it into the box. Either way you want to shake and stir your trench often.

Also, don't over do it. Start off with a tiny amount of hash and get a feel for it. A little goes a long way. When you get it vaporizing right you will draw some very thick vapor!

Came in here to ask the same question as Scholar, so thanks!

Is it possible to put a small piece of tinfoil or some other non-flammable, impermeable material in the trench and put the hash directly on that rather than mixing it with herb? I have the PA so getting it up to the right heat may not be an issue, but I wouldn't want to damage anything (or die of inhaling aluminium vapours or something!)

4.18 Could I place foil on the screen of the Box so I can use it for oils, powders, etc?

Short answer: Don't do that.

Answered my own question.

Blisssville usually has these in stock, both 2 and 4-cell cases:

I was all set to buy from them but they want to charge me $5 to ship 2 cases, 1 stem, and 1 battery pushback ring. First Class mail should be less than $2 for this light of a package!

 

[nealcassidy]

They might be flexible on the shipping - some people have checked on that with them via email.
I think they use USPS priority mail, and that has a base price of around $5.
If you're willing to accept a slower delivery, maybe they'll go for the cheaper method.

I just emailed you some shipping info.

 

[Joint_Specialist]

Thanks, guys! I was able to get my order shipped for $2.

Ear Wax with MFLB (merged)

Okay, I know what you all are thinking, but the other day I tried Ear Wax Hash in my MFLB. I know that this can mess up the screen so I had to be very cautious. I loaded up a full trench of herb and then placed two or three small pieces of the Ear Wax on top of the trench. It turns out the Ear Wax melts very slowly in the MFLB. Each hit you could see very slight melting going on. But I just made sure when i mixed up the herb not to let the Wax touch the screen at all, keeping it mostly on top of the herb. I could definitely taste the Ear Wax and felt a stronger high, but didn't notice any problems with the screen because the Ear Wax never touched it. I was curious if anyone else has tried this or if anyone else has any thoughts?

Yes, others have tried this Johnny-Come-Lately. Keep on experimenting! A big scoop of kif is a great trench topper too!!!

I made a new plastic bottle bong for MFLB during Page 602.

Now I have a vid
(No exhale sorry.)

Also I am posting this because I'm getting worried about the slowly growing tear...
Just look at it:
Oh what a poor box.

It works now, but for how long...?
I think it will take only a little time before first particles begin getting through.

 

[Vitolo]

That is covered under warranty!

Are the crease's/fold that run from the bottom of the "bowl" to the top normally come a little undone? My box has started to do that a little.

 

[Seek]

I don't know if I usterstood you correctly.

You talk about gaps in creases in the trench? Well, it's like a small origami and there's no hole behind it. If you are irritated by her getting in there, you can gently push it down.

 

[Vitolo]

I use the rounded end of the brush, to gently "iron" the creases flat again.

 

[philmcan]

Thanks Vito!
@ Seek, I am talking about the four corners that come up from the rectangle at the bottom of the "bowl" to the top of the "bowl".

 

[sessnet]

Oh what a poor box.

That looks like a "well loved" box!

I guess I have more loving to do to mine.

 

[slickbutters]

I figured the openings that form at the corners of the trench were nothing to be concerned about. Granted, I'm not entirely sure if they are widening or what is causing them to widen, but I have noticed that wear on mine as well.

 

[Seek]

They're widening because of repeated brushing / cleaning. Just push them gently back tight with some tool, like the round end of the brush.

I'm curious how many people have had to purchase new Launch Boxes due to screen tearing. Anyone have stories to share on that?

Also, I find it just slightly annoying (not necessarily MFLB's problem) that there is never a very comprehensive resource on what accessories are made available through the company for the product. Don't get me wrong, I love this damn thing so much, but when I recently did a google search for Magic Flight accessories, and found it difficult to determine what all of the options are from the company. I guess it's really not that big of deal, and if we lived in a society wear Marijuana was legal, this probably wouldn't be a problem, but it's just a little annoying.

I did just buy the adapter though. Who here uses the adapter and what do you think?

Not very many- it's a warranty issue and replaced for free.
