Heres a few pictures we took. Mrs P is the photographer.. I didnt really take any and I think she was too wrecked to remember to take many.
Heres where we were at in the VIP line.....
Waiting in the VIP chute inside Denver Mart
New-Vape guys.... This kid was cool. His boss was an ass...
Hey guys... Im ready to get into extraction for larger scale production. Nothing crazy, just personal but Ive been doing my stuff with a tube, blasting it with butane and then without a purge oven, have been repeatedly purging with grain alcohol and boiling it down.
I want to mechanize some of...
Went back to the Cup on Sunday... I wasnt feeling all that great so I was straight when we got to the Cup. Went over and talked to the New-Vape guys. One of the people there was the owner and the other was a young kid who was one of the machinists. The kid was pretty cool, the owner guy was kind...
Wow.. what a trip.
I apologize I wasnt able to meet up with you guys. Mrs P went nuts with the edibles and got into some fudge Sunday that pretty much sealed our fate for the rest of the trip. The guy at the booth that had the sign that said "We have The Clear!" all the way in the back sold her...
We're back! What a trip!
@lovinlivinlife, we also went to Mindful and got some Purple Grimmace Cookies shatter and one of the infused punches.
Too exhausted after a day of traveling to post up much but I will tomorrow. It was a very.... interesting experience. Unfortunately edibles got the...
We'll be landing in Denver mid afternoon tomorrow. I know we dont have any firm meetup plans but I really want to meet any of you guys going. I dont know if Ill have internet access once I get there but hopefully the hotel has a business center or something that isnt too jammed and I can jump on...
The cheap ones really dont work well at all. I have one.. it has some reclaim in the dish but the whole thing is covered in reclaim and looks nasty. My other drop down doesnt really have much amber to it once you go past the inlet.. maybe a small tint but nothing like the others. Then gravity...
If you are interested in reclaim, I highly suggest one of the dropdowns I got @VaPeD&CoNfUsEd to make for me. Its the best thing since sliced bread for reclaiming your waste.
We've moved The Terpz unit into fulltime rotation but the Auber has always been solid. Its on its way to the Cup for use out there and Ill toss the cheapo nail in the trash and ship it back when we're done out there.
I havent found the controller to be as crucial as the nail. Maybe some of the more expensive controllers are "better" for some reason like soft heating, etc but the people Ive talked to can explain why its mostly sales bluster and not something you REALLY need. My two units work great.. I know...
While that may be true, making that call after people have bought tickets, scheduled vacation, etc is bullshit.
I did just get an email that the only ones allowed to park onsite are VIPers and exhibitioners so I guess thats cool.
Theyve also changed the hours again. Now its 12-8.
The free sample thing doesnt bother me really... the atmosphere changing is what does. I want to experience everything thats made this event THE event to go to for people like us and now theyve changed it.....
This is about losing dollars. The amount of tourism money losing this event will cost Denver is huge.. Id bet 7 figures only because Ive been involved in smaller scale events and know how much money those events brought into the towns. Its a LOT more than you think and this event is probably 10...
I have a feeling this is going to be a pretty sad time Cup-wise and Id love to know how many vendors have bailed.
Im trying to take it in stride only because my wife planned all this and would get majorly upset if I went off about this especially given we've invested thousands into this...
