Any systematic way to size up lines?

Never have owned scales and don't really see myself getting them anytime soon due to the hassle of them being one extra thing to hide from parents when they visit me/when I go home over holidays.

My question is, are there any websites/easy places that can simply show me specific amounts of poweder such as 50/100/150mg and so on? with say a penny next to it for scale.

I have a rough idea of amounts when racking up lines but being able to see a 1/4 of a gram in powder in an image would just be a big help for me when sizing up lines.
I know that if I was desperate to be precise I could simply split a gram into half, then quarter and so on but just wanted to know if there are any resources that give a decent guideline to sizes of lines? Thanks.

That is supposedly cocaine. It's nowhere near exact, bear in mind different powders have different densities, but it's the best you'll get.

Get scales.
 
I always equate a typical matchstick to be no more than 80- 100mg. This isn't exact by any means and if anything it may be a little under, but for substances like coke or MDMA it won't send you too far wrong.

I wouldn't use this to eye ball anything with a much lower threshold. Trying to take a matchstick line and then attempt to divide this into 10-15mg will be a recipe for disaster. Get a scale and save your life.
 
Cheers for the image and matchstick reference that's the kind of rough guideline I needed. And I can't get scales really I already have to hide my vaporiser and grinder when parents visit me I'd rather not have to hide scales too, and that'd lead them to think I deal haha. Thanks though.
 
I think it does very much depend on what substance you're talking about, but.. scales are tiny. Better they accidentally find some scales than your dead body, anyhow. Be careful. :)
 
True I guess they're not massive. I'm under the impression that it's against rules to post a direct link/name of model of scales so if anyone would care to PM me a name of scales that are relatively cheap/small I would be very grateful :)
 
It'd be mainly for powders like ketamine and mdma so I'll only really be measure things in the range of 100mg kind of size

Feel dumb asking this but I'm so confused by it, these appear to be both the same scales in the pictures but have completely different model names? Strange...?

The ones Dan reccomended:

Model name of SWS100 but looks identical to the MZ100 Dan recommended:

It's worth noting that the finer the powder the bigger the line will be. As ketamine is usually pretty crystally make them smaller than in the pics shown for coke.

Im a bit baffled by it as well, i assume the mylo is a cheap rip off or something, altho its been reliable and reasonably accurate with for me. within 10mg ish
 
Yeah makes sense, I don't need massive accuracy on this anyway just a rough idea, think I'm going to order the one you've recommended soon

As noted, matchstick falls down if dealing with any number of RCs. For "street drugs" it mostly works just fine though. When it comes to RCs I tend to think more in terms of thumbnails which I would also equate to ~100mg of most I deal with. The difference is presumably summat to do with density and cut, but there does appear to be an odd difference betwixt 100mg of street drug and 100mg of RC drug. There is no obvious reason for this to be so but it is so all the same. At least in my experience of weighing both and comparing them visually.

As for scales, unless your spending thousands the chances are they'll be identical. There's really precious little difference between cheapo scales and stupidly expensive scales unless you step up to stupidly stupidly expensive scales.
 
After all my witterings about scales a while back and having gone through 4 in as many months that just kept fucking up....it wasn't me being a twit btw as he checked em too and they were just not calibrating etc etc, Got some Flo proof and friendly ones now .

Can I just add that people who assume that sellers are sending bang on measures they don't and often...had some crazy measures sent recently. Scales bang on calibrated and a 2g bag of 4-FA was well over 3g! and an alleged 250mg sample came in at 324mg..lucky me BUT if I had divided by eye , halving and halving to get a 250mg dose ...I would have been way way out!

May not matter so much it being out so much but some....do, and personally with all dosage I want to know. Some powders are just denser than you think they will be and will effect weight too? That my experience,

I leave mine around but I do do some silver smithing so have it with all that stuff...for all the diamonds I obviously mount :X
