So when I toast some bread in the toaster am I combusting it? I think not. Combustion is a chemical reaction that doesn't stop once the original heat source is removed until the fuel and oxygen are used up.

Well I'd love to see a video of it being pumped up to 5-6 tons. I bet it flexes quite a bit.

I wouldn’t trust that press. It looks so weak to hold 12 tons. It could just come flying apart. It could actually kill you. My 10 ton Dake flexes quite a bit under pressure. That little thing just isn’t going to cut it.

Heck yeah. That looks really sharp!

If your yield isn’t that good then unfortunately the herb wasn’t that potent to begin with. It might feel better to just vape the herb but your just asking your lungs to process more material for the same potency.

Make hash from the trim and squish that in a filter bag. You will get excellent results. I have a few videos on the subject.

I still don’t understand the need for a filter when pressing flower. I don’t get even one speck of green in my rosin without one. And no worry’s about using to much pressure and blowing out.

No prepressing of hash is required. I’ll hand shape it a bit so it fits nicely into the bag. I get it fresh so I don’t need to hydrate it. I just store it in a bag in a cool dark place until I want to squish some.

I use a hand operated clamp to squeeze the prepress. It works fantastic and keeps the hydraulic press free for squishing.

I wouldn’t just use a bigger jack on a press that came with a smaller jack. The press could fail causing serious injury.

One thing about squishing hash at low temp. If you do accidentally get a blowout you can just take your contaminated mess and put it in a new filter bag and try again. The end product will still be very nice.

There was some pressure but not enough to register on the gauge. It's very easy to press rosin from hash. You could probably squeeze the plates by hand and some rosin would flow. Ouch hot though. :D

I will ask my friend that makes it. Last I checked I was yielding right at 80%.

I needed to refill my silicone container so I made another slightly cheesy video. :)

I wish I would have nabbed one.

You don’t have to not use parchment.

That's the nicest diy press I've seen. Very handy work.

I'm still pressing my flower without a filter bag. My rosin is clean so I am not seeing why I should be using it.

You just have to ask yourself if it’s worth paying $40 for a $7 battery. :)

I would still use parchment paper with this press. Removing the rosin from the paper is trivial. At 110 lbs it also looks quite heavy to roll over and back upright. How much does it weight again?
