That hash looks delicious!
And I sure do miss the lights. I've tried to describe them to people. Some of the displays I saw over the years. I still have specific vivid memories from 30-40 years ago!
I have time-lapse photos here, framed in hardwood, of the Aurora Borealis, taken in Carcross, Yukon Territory in 1977 or 1978, from the back of the Boiler House exterior entrance door, with a good Cannon 35mm on a tripod.

They were very active that night, and went well beyond the more common yellows and greens, getting into dancing blues and purples with reds, no hallucinogens involved. Taken by another member of an alternative residential school we'd converted from an old Indian residential school, into a non-conventional live-in school.

The shadowed outline/profile of the spruce trees on the bluff/ridge behind school adds contrast, with the stars just flipping right out that night.

I'll see if we can scan a decent facsimile.

Magical stuff when we were younger.

Ironically, the initials of the photographer are E.T.

Go figger'.. :)

There's 2 pics above, but the second one is the only one that appeared without appearing as a link to click.

I'll pop it into a second comment, in case the first one was simply too large of a file.

Hey how did you make this? It looks like the real deal, like not home made. Especially the piece on the middle right on the edge of the cellophane.
Sorry to be further cluttering up Rob's thread, but here's the link to my hash tumbler and press thread.

*(I probably owe you a chunk of hash for this boundary infraction Rob. When you're back in the Interior of Alaska, let me know... ;) ...)

I semi-mechanized/automated the Lebanese and Moroccan methods, with help of various sorts, and a bit of research.

I like hash a lot, have since about 1972, and when the US largely lost connection with the European and Asian markets by the end of the middle 1980s, push came to shove, and there was little left to do but make it myself.

Of course, the trips to the coffee shops in A-dam and Arnhem NL were always welcome too. Charas from Nepal, Kashmir and Afghanistan are things that stand out as major forms of functional art in my history, appreciating them in a major way, and I'm just not that proficient at making charas... yet...

I am! How's things? Been awhile
It has been. All good. Off and on this site depending on what’s goin on in life. Loving the hash shots. You are seriously dialing in. I’ve got some product I’d like to hash-ify, but haven’t quite decided how to go about it. Loving the dry sift looks.

The supposed advantage to cellophane is that is natural and plant-based and therefore not evil plastic. You can buy a roll for cheap at a Dollar store in clear, red, blue etc. Red was always the smuggler's choice. :rasta:
Hey, just a heads up that not all products listed as cellophane are actually made from plant materials. Some are made from plastic and marketed as cellophane, not sure why this is allowed. Some countries (UK) are better about the labelling. An easy way to tell if you have real cellophane is to take a lighter to it. Real stuff will burn more like paper, the plastic type will melt. At the end of the day the plastic type is polypropylene which is used by dispensaries to package cannabis anyways.
