    So, is the US Presidential election actually over?

    Facts. Good luck with that. Most reasonable people understand what a fact is and how that is different from fiction. Others folks... not so much. The truth is the last thing they want to hear. Facts would only further prevent them from recreating "The good old days". While politics is an...

    Self-Driving Cars?

    The blue screen of death will take on a whole new meaning. I can already see the news story: "Woman's car was downloading the latest hotfixes and OS updates. All was going well at the reboot, she didn't even notice because she was texting, doing her makeup and jilling-off to porn. There was a...

    Are there any particular animals you would like to eat?

    I'd love to try the Lionfish. Seen many, never ate one. I've eaten a few odd by western standards foods: Deer, elk, moose, bison, rabbit, goat, duck, goose Snake (several types including cobra) Turtle, Alligator, Frogs, Crawfish Shark, Eel, Parrotfish, Snakehead Fish, Urchin, Opihi Balut...

    Space Case Broken Or...?

    I have spoken to them multiple times. Because I wanted to satisfy for myself the never ending discussion on whether SpaceCase Titanium grinders are really titanium anodized or not, I called them and asked repeated, pointed questions. The two companies do manufacturing, sales, shipping...

    Space Case Broken Or...?

    Oddly, they do not have a dedicated website. They are sold on Hot Box Vapors website. Space Case grinders and Hot Box vaporizers share a manufacturing facility in Costa Mesa, California. https://store.hotboxvapors.com/Space-Case/ Space Case sales, questions and warranty issues. Phone number...

    (This is reposted from a thread "SpaceCase / Santa Cruz Shredder" that was archived to ABV (archived threads) and locked after only 8 days. I'm not sure why that thread was put to bed, but I thought there were some useful comparisons.) OK, I had to find out for myself. Longtime Space Case...

    SpaceCase / Santa Cruz Shredder

    OK, I had to find out for myself. Longtime Space Case user here. I got a Santa Cruz Shredder because I always wanted a 3 piece grinder. How did I vote on the poll? I didn't. I couldn't. I love them both. I like both grinders for different reasons and purposes. My Space Cases: 2pc...

    Vito, I miss your old avatar. It looked like Bogie meets the Matrix. For you youngsters, non film fans and non sci-fi fans - Vitolo's old avatar looked like Humphrey Bogart was inside the 'Matrix' in the film The Matrix (tinted green). I can't be the first person to think you resemble...

    Help me decide between Vapor Brothers or Da Buddha

    DOOOD! I enjoyed the hell out of your post. It is rare to read a post this entertaining. Thank you. You obviously do not suffer from low self-esteem. And... a ladies man too. Nice. P.S. - I am a non-qualifying applicant.

    Is the Titanium Space Case Grinder Worth it?

    SpaceCase started selling grinders in 1999. They started selling the "Ti" ones in 2001. While something made starting in 2001 is hardly "vintage", the first runs of any product will appeal to somebody. NOS - New Old Stock Unused vintage vacuum tubes, car and motorcycle parts, etc.. This...

    Mr. Kief, you are right about SpaceCase not telling the recipe. They would not be specific and say which titanium process they use. I called SpaceCase again today (last time was April 2011) and asked again about their "Titanium coating". A very patient gentleman named Rory assured me that they...

    Is the Titanium Space Case Grinder Worth it?

    DUH ! I saw what I was missing here. Semantics and truth in advertising. So... me, Mr. Keif and several other interested folks were wrapped up in really two things: Semantics Truth in advertising I finally get it. Right? I knew from the very first time I heard of, saw and touched the old...

    Herb Grinders

    I have a box full of grinders. I've used raw aluminum, anodized and four different SpaceCase Ti grinders. My personal favorite is a medium SC Ti 4 piece. The "Titanium" finish on the SCs really does have non-stick properties. I haven't cleaned my daily driver in four years (when I...

    Is the Titanium Space Case Grinder Worth it?

    What am I missing here? You are the one who would not accept "hearsay". Please remind me why that is what I wanted. Short-term memory loss may be the norm around here, but I am confused about who here accepts "hearsay" and who does not. You are correct in that they are not coated in pure...

    Herb Grinders

    Well, yes it would be misleading if anyone was saying it was made out of titanium. I don't think anyone has claimed it is solid titanium. For a decade or more (help me out here fellow old timers) people have talked about SpaceCase Titanium grinders and it's always about the titanium coating...

    Herb Grinders

    It appears you fell for the ANTI Titanium BS. SpaceCase Titanium grinders are coated with some type of titanium layer. You can call the SpaceCase manufacturer and ask. I did. The question seems to be which titanium coating they use. Each titanium coating process (ie - TiAlN, AlTiN) is...

    Is the Titanium Space Case Grinder Worth it?

    I did a quick Google of TiAlN and AlTiN. Lots of very interesting materials and technologies. Get your geek on! ********** PVD coating means Physical Vapour Deposition of Titanium, Titanium Aluminium and Chromium. The process is also referred to as Titanium/Titanium Aluminium/ Chromiumplating...
