Oh - Yes. Then, no. That's not good. I hope it wasn't an expensive one. Sorry man.

Oh right! The Vapman lighter has a little plastic bracket that fits right on the button that works like a story. You have to pull it off or the button won't go down. I couldn't see it at first. At first I was like, "What?" and then, "Oh duh!"

An ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure, is what you're saying... I agree. Which is why I keep nagging about clear our bowl right at session's end - when everything is still warm and loose and opposed to caked on when it's cold. Thanks OF

These are good points OF. What do you propose be used instead? Some people use Vodka or Moonshine for such things. [Neo tries a drink made by Dozer and winces] Cypher: Good shit, huh? It's good for two things: degreasing engines and killing brain cells.

OF, have you been drinking the acetone? I thought it would evaporate pretty quick. For very bad cases, I wouldn't be afraid to dip in Acetone for a few minutes then cleaning the outside with a rag and the inside with a q-tip. I would wait about 24 hours before using it. I can smell it on...

I felt the same way as you, Steama. It's hard not to sound like a fanboy, but I was really surprised how good that lighter works. It may look plain on the pictures compared to some others (like my pretty Vector), but when I used it a few times I was pleasantly surprised. I think René found a...

Oh I agree with OF. You have to dance on that fine line between perfect heat and nasty combustion and experimentation is your only teacher. So don't be too shy with the heat is great advice, but it's not for the faint hearted. Holy crap! Looks like the one I say Mr Mellish roasted his Basic...

OF, your signature should be "Don't be too shy with the heat." I love it. Seriously. It's short and sweet and it's true! :nod:

Is Spalted Maple suitable?

I clean the mouthpiece filter like René mentioned, and also dump out the herb and clean the bowl immediately after the last hit because I found that the resin would stick to the inside of the bowl if left there to dry. Cleaning it after it was dry was a pain, but right after the last hit, the...

Now I can't get the picture out of my mind of Mr Mellish linking his dog... :rolleyes:

Of, that sounds real interesting, but I think I'm too lazy to use the sand technique. I'd like an easy stencil for masking with a jet lighter, though. Time to tinker!

Yeah, my memory isn't that great either... I could swear you used the creme brûlée torch from hell on it and that's what turned it into a Charcoal Briquette, but I could easily be imagining things. I hadn't seen the sand charring technique, but it's well worth a try. Heating it with the torch...

I think this one is a bit more charred that what I would expect. If you go back and look at my charred Vapmans I don't go that far - Especially on the outside. On the outside I just char it enough to darken it. The Peach Tree wood looks a very dark brown, but not completely black. But to each...

That's a great point, OF. I have noticed that before and didn't remember until you mentioned it. One time, I increased the size of my flame just a tad and combust twice in a row. The flame increase shaved off at least a full second off my heating time and that took me by surprise. I also move...

I didn't get almost any visible vapor at first. Then I heeded OF's advice and stopped being shy with the heat - which changed everything for me. At first I combust a few times because of this, but I realized just how shy I had been before. Fast forward about a month from that time and I was...

It is a nice cleavage, but if you focus on it too much, you miss the tricks. :lol:

These tricks are very cool. I wish we could get vapor as thick as the E-Cig guys get. :( @vapman - The shot glass trick you were talking about... Is it what the guy does in this video with the bigger glass? Try to look past the cleavage

Yeah and I can vape for a week in the Vapman what that box used in one session! Hahaha!

Ok, here's what we can do: I'll get in my DeLorian, go back to the day I started vaping... Give my old self a Vapman and convince myself to use it instead of buying that big 'ol box and see how long it takes me to get the hang of it... Or see if I give it up before realizing how awesome it...
