A Guide to Fishsticks

[unclefishstick]

back from riding...one king of the mountain,an 9th over all,2 personal records and a handful of 2nd and 3rd best times....so i guess them fancy ass new hubs work!

its sure nice to have a fairly wind free day to ride...getting warm already though...11% of the way up everest,only 26000 more feet to go!
assuming i finish the challenge,and unlike the first time im certain i can do it,this will be my third everest month in a one year period,meaning i climbed at least 8840 odd meters in a month,and i had a 10000 meter month in there...i can certainly say im a much better climber now...i used to not be sure i would even make it to the top of hills i whip off for fun now...maybe not whip off,im still ponderously slow at climbing,but i know im going to make it now...its a matter of patience rather than endurance..

damn i hate a hill......and gf hates them even worse. i have 21 gears to her 7. skinny tires vs kinda wide. she owns a electra townie 7 in a girly color

 

[unclefishstick]

lol,you guys dont even have actual hills out there do you?

heck,im running a 1x system on most of the bikes,even the ogre only has a 2x10!

well hell yah....i have a feeling we aren't in kansas anymore ya damn knucklehead.....

 

[unclefishstick]

maybe my spotty memory has you in the wrong state,but if not im pretty sure the state high point is a landfill

dont worry though,everyone hates hills,even the people like me who go out of their way to climb them,i still feel a certain amount of dread at the base of each hill,its still going to be a challenge to keep your shit together for a 1000 foot climb,it still takes me a bit to find my rhythm and get calmed down enough to not,you know,feel like im going to die,and i still have to mini-goal my way up the longer climbs...pick a spot and think,"if i make it there i can take a break",and just keep doing that until you're done..and then you get to fly back down!

Ok well I smashed a gram of hash in my womans hair thing a ma doo with a coffee filter holdin the hash and the other paper around that.

I got a nice little glob goin, alot soaked into the filter though and seems to have solidified... I may eat this coffee filter.

Other than that, how do I smoke this rosin ha?! Can I throw it in a j or something lol..

Do you have a Vaporizer?

 

[unclefishstick]

yeah,rosin works good in a j old school style,or on top of a bowl,it will try and flow oout the bottom as soon as you heat it though...and for gods sake dont touch the stuff,its like the worlds most annoying booger,its a huge pain to get it off stuff without iso...

 

[Tonygreen]

DUDE, that shit was craaaazy,,, talk about super blasted,,, i just woke up lol i gotta get the technique down heh... i can se i left a shitload on the filter heh, I think i tried quishin it twice prolly good for only one if you use a coffe filter?



It dont stick to this sucker!

mornin campers...

looks like the frickin winds are coming back for the end of the week...not super happy about that of course...plus its gonna get warm too...guess its time to get on the roof...

guess i can work on squishin the rest of the kief...i need to get to my own stuff...need to get the clones in cups too...always something that needs doing around here...

 

[captain planet]

Mornin, hey what temp you guys pressing kief at?

 

[unclefishstick]

between 160 and 180 for me....it seems like the lower temps make a more shatter like product but i get less yield...

 

[unclefishstick]

alrighty..time to get moving...got bills to pay and need groceries and want to grab some miles and get my 1000 feet of climbing in for the day...gonna be a tough week to get my 7000 feet in...hoping for some west winds since the big hills generally face west and a tailwind never hurts...at least its downhill into the wind....

 

[dansbuds]

Mornin SUKers


Last nights show was fuckin AWESOME !!!!
better than i could have imagined
got more than a few nods & high fives from being the old grey bearded dude with a buckethead shirt on lol

 

[thewhitelotus]

correct, lower temps typically get you a more buddered product but bubble hash tends to shatter up....in my experience.

I press my bubble at around 180-200 and my flowers around 220-240. Ive been messing around with directional flow and I think itll work well with the bubble has or REALLY juicy flowers. With my 14g larfy nug presses im only getting about 15% return so its not ideal for directional flow. Larger bubble presses yield much more and the driptech should work great for that. The problem ive been running into is that my parchment is bleeding through a bit on the higher pressure. Ive contacted a few places and have some samples of heavy duty parchment on the way. The PTFE is a pain to collect off but should work great for sleeving the prepress patty.

Tony, you can save those filters and do an ISO wash, soak em in butter, coconut oil, etc. Ive only made butter with mine once, but I need to do it again here soon.....I have about 265gs of pressed nugs waiting. You can also press the filter again (I typically fold it in half then repress)

Afternoon gents! Nothing too exciting goin on here. Might do a little more squishin....still have tons of larf material to go through.

Ohhhhh and im sure you all are watching already, but the Cubs game is on!

 

[unclefishstick]

back from riding/paying bills/grocery shopping....got moving in the right direction just as the winds started to pick up so it was a good ride in that respect...got a king of the mountain and 6 personal records today,managed to get 30 miles and 1600 feet of climbing in...17% of the way up everest..only another 7200 meters left to go!

 

[unregistered190]

dan, how long was the show? i know you were stoked to see him!

 

[dansbuds]

2hrs unreg .
stoked is an understatement

Evening fellerz

puff time then garden chores

 

[unclefishstick]

just did 6 squishes,still need to gather it up which is the pain in the ass part,got the sheets in the freezer to see if that helps...

 

[unclefishstick]

good squishes,nice looking stuff,the bulk of it was fairly "dry" in that it gathered up easily and left almost nothing behind...still have a bunch of kief to go,made about 8g so far...gonna try squishing some of the old packets and see if i can get more out...

bummed the winds are coming back,but need to get up on the roof and do the coolers,gonna be near 90 the next couple of days...
