How to dose without some super nice scale?

I will be picking up about a gram of MDA and a gram of mDMA, it will be potent and very pure so it seems pertinant to measure it correctly, and i do not own a scale that could mesure those kind of amounts.

I have plenty of friends who have scales that weigh to the .1, but that really doesn't do me much good. And scales that go to the .01 are pretty expensive. hell, I don't want to spend anything on a scale.

How can I eyeball this? Or do it otherwise?

Weigh out 1g on either a .1g or .01g scale, and dissolve it in 50ml of water.

5ml is 100mg, give or take 10mg assuming your off by ~.1g.
 
If you really want to be accurate... you can do what I'm doing with 2C-B.


Dissolved a known amount in pure vodka, for every 10mg, add one milliliter... that way 10ml is exactly 100mg. It will probably degrade faster, so you'll want to use it up in a few months, but you can dose with 100% accuracy that way



^ Hey! You stole my idea :p
 
awesome - go from being unable to accurately weigh a powder to being unable to accurately measure a liquid...

:)

op, if you are serious about this then get a scale. i did a cursory search on google and found a scale which weighs up to 20 grams in 0.001 gram increments for less than $20. if you can afford a gram of mdma and a gram of mda, you can afford a scale.

it's not hard to measure a liquid :| at ALL


Get a 10ML oral syringe, the kind with no needle. 10ml should be 100mg if you made it to my specifications, you might get 99.5mg for 100.14mg, but I think it'll be close enough.

I have my doubts on the accuracy of said scale. Those aren't the kinds of things you cheap out on.

Alasdair makes a valid point but if you dont want to invest in a scale then this would be my suggestion.

I think you could avoid the epoxy glue by using a double sided grab tab.

Also to make the scale more accurate cut the plastic strip longer.

So you need plastic drink bottle, plastic cap, double sided grab tab.

You dont need a 9V battery anything soild and heavy would suffice.

If you were on the streets and needed to knock up a scale quick you could even use chewing gum to stick the bottle top.

The main issue is knowing your coin weights. I will take a guess and assume you are in America. This is the vital stats you need:

Heres the video on the principle of how to make quite an accurate scale with a plastic bottle, bottle top and a mouth full of chewing gum.

The version in this vid is a bit different but you get the idea.

Useful info to know if you are ever in the shit without scales.

perhaps. the op seems to find using the correct tool for this simple job too much of a problem so it didn't seem like swapping that problem for the (potentially impractical) alternative of dissolving the whole amount and then measuring out liquid was going to be much of a go, in this case...

The liquid idea has some value as you could store it in a drink and less likely to get caught vs walking around with crystal and mG scales.
 
Not to mention, you could dose out liquid by weight with a .1g scale alot more accurately than powder. IE, 1cc/ml or water=1g.

Know how much water you added, 50ml, so 50g, then add whatever's left over for the weight of the powder you added. Take your total (prob around 51g), and weigh out 5.1g worth of liquid for an accurate way to measure out liquid doses without oral syringes.

Only works with water though, as its density is 1g/ml.

IMO, it's the only safe way to dose without a scale.

Just invest in some vials, that way you can measure out your doses before hand and just bring a small eppendorf tube or something and your good to go.
 
liquid dosing with mdma sounds absolutely disgusting.

buy a scale. the $20 ones on the website that's a river are suppossed to be accurate to .001g, so give a error factor of 10 (that's huge!) it is still accurate to the decigram.
 
Just gunna say I got a scale off of Amazon for like £20 and its 100% accurate to 0.001. It's really not expensive, stop being stingey - its worth it.

Wouldn't they be better off investing in a scale rather than vials?
 
Tylenol for Infants or Ibuprofen for Infants. Both are $5-$6 ... both come with 5mil oral dose syringes.
