soo.. i know i'm not known or anything around here. i've been using for about a year in around december. i've finally gotten my first batch of ops from my friend. ..
1) i took of the coating with a paper towel, then proceeded to remove the little pieces attached and all the coating.
2) i grinded (sp?) it with my ped egg (the little foot thing) with really no problem at all, maybe a drop more resistance than the older ones
when i looked under the ped egg, it was ground up. i made a line, put a bill up my nose and snorted it. for about 30 - 40 minutes i didnt ahve any gel or anything, and i was getting drips and nodding hard. i ground up a whole 80.
and hour or so later i met up with my brother and gave him one. he did it like i did, those he made his goo up. we waited for it to dry, and then he grinded it up and blew a too (about an 80) and now we have smoked one joint and a blunt (we normally do about 100mg/day mor e if around and smoke about 5 joints a day, haven't smoked a blunt in about a yaer or so). basically i am really high. and i did it just like an old one. both of us.
after a while we picked some goo out nose, but a lot of it dripped or absorbed and we are crakced. so you all know im about 125 lb and 19, he is about 190ln and 27, and has been using (not as much as recently) for about 8 years or so.
so thats my input to how i got high off it. my advice is to not really wet the paper towel too much so its hard to work with, but you want to get all the coating off .
let me know?
Also, in the same book, every opiate listed save one or two has chloroform as the primary solvent. Others are toluene, MeOH(which is primary for morphine), pyrimidene, and petroleum ether.
Ok, I have some theories to throw out there and see
what people think. I have been looking at solvents for alkaloids (like chloroform, toluene, etc) but I realized we are still dealing with the SALT form. This is done to make them more soluble in water so they will be absorbed. So that being said, we are left with two options. First, u can treat with alkaline and extract with an organic solvent, then add acid to put it back into salt form. This method has drawbacks and is hard. The second option is to use a polar protic solvent (which water is). These include acetic acid(usually dilluted with water though), butanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, ethanol, methanol, formic acid.
Glacial acetic acid is the water free type FYI. I am just thinking the dilluted type might cause it to gel up.
SMARTEN UP people goddamn. You're going to end up dead if you guys don't slow down and take proper precautions and educate yourself with the chemicals you're working with!! (M.E.K. IS A PLASTIC SOLVENT, IT DISSOLVES ALL TYPES OF PLASTIC, PVC, RESINS, AND GUMS. MEANING THE PLASTIC PEDEGG!!!! THATS why your pedegg had melted. I truly hope that you did not consume ANY of the product/liquid/whatever you achieved from that procedure, because it most likely contained M.E.K. and dissolved plastics, resins, and chemicals used to manufacture the pedegg)
Not entirely true. MEK doesn't dissolve HDPE. HDPE containers, measuring cups etc. aren't hard to come by at all.
FYI acetone also dissolves many different types of plastic but not HDPE.
I will try acetic acid this weekend when I have a chance to goto the photo hobby store. Will report my findings as well as methods used when I do.
