maybe not his exact method, but what you have here is AWESOME!! incredibly clean. great job. must be incredible tasting...
so, give it up, how'd you do it??

Thanks Cravin! Its heavenly in the lungs brother! I refined the heads into a 70 micron full mesh bag then took the bag outside, cinched down the top and sprayed it with compressed air a few second bursts for a minute or so.
are you kidding?? thats so friggin' simple!! did you stumble upon it or have you been thinking on it for awhile?? it looks beautifully clean. i bet it does smoke like a dream! i'll be giving this a try. any more details we should know?? i gotta go try and find something to sift...
I've never tried a vacuum, this was my first attempt at full melt dry sift. I did stumble on this method, I was using the compressed air to blow the dust off my mirror and clean bags between batches. Thanks for the kind words guys!
i will be trying this method. but, not soon. i don't currently have any siftable product. i will in the future though. if no one has posted their attempts by then, i will...
I mean it was pretty simple. But I made sure it was the cleanest sift possible. Wouldn't expect perfect results from tossing some dirty sift into a bag and blasting it with air. The sift I used was melting out of the 90 mc bag. Prolly would have melted right out the 220. I just dry shook 2lbs of Larfy buds for a few min to make like 7 grams of super clean sift. Made sure not to crumble any pieces. Toss the sift in the freezer for a sec. Then I worked the sift with a small brush and card to break the head from the stalk. Once it was in the 70 bag just had to get the smaller heads and stalks out.
i guess it will come down to selective sieveing + vacuum or high pressure (reversed vacuum), especially if you look at the resin collection, most - all heads in the picture have very similar size -> "scan" the material to measure the mean diameter of the ripe/target crystals, take a sieve with openings of target size (or minus 5 micron), take another bag with +5 micron size of target crystals, and resift through these two bags with using a vaccum/suction pressure...
I can get my dry sift close to 99% pure gland heads as well.. but in small amounts.. the unique thing with Sam is he can rock 100 grams and clean it perfectly.. will give the forced air a shot..i have used forced air before on a flat screen built into a box but it just blew the shit all over the sides.. The sinched 70u bag sounds proper.. thanks for the ideas..
will see if larger amounts can be done using this tech.
In the book "Hashish!" by R.C.Clarke, he described a group of smokers in a room in Afghanistan taking turns smoking a large pipe and also handing around a cloth bag made of a material that was fine enough to hold the resin heads while the smaller sized dust/contaminant passed through the holes. Each guy in turn lifted and dropped the bag repeatedly so there were little clouds of "dust" each time it was dropped and jerked back up ...after a long time, the dry sifted resin inside the bag was purer.
