nickthecheese LMAO. But it’s kinda already been done.
High times once advertised the "BUZZ BOMB", a small pipe fitted with a nitrous head, and an adjustable release valve. Adjust it, take a toke and as the pressure differed in the tube -presto -a small blast of smoke coolin', lip twistin', N2O. The version I saw was however potentially dangerous if the adjustment got moved.
An amazing old inventor I knew (who could make almost anything from a mental picture) once knocked up a modified version of the Death Star. It included a nitrous attachment after the 2nd water chamber. Experiments revealed (rather surprisingly) that warm water actually improved the stone over cold. An apprentice doctor, who supported the warm water theory, stated it was due to isomerisation. Until I learnt more chemistry, I accepted this, but now know such rearrangements are not at all possible without the presence of a strong acid.
Back to the Death Star – MKIII+ as we called it. It also had an optional ‘blow for you switch’ similar to what JipTravolta describes he saw in Amsterdam. It was a great novelty, and although a really cool smoke was produced, in reality it wasn't practical. Way too big to hide under the car seat and impossible to clean. The pump was eventually used to make a fogger, but that’s another story
Here's the original smoke cooling plan

BT, what a specimen on page 1!! Blue is such a beautiful flowering colour, but I’ve always found it adversely affects the taste. I’m sure some people would argue this, but I’ve tested many times with some of the best looking purple. I guess the anthocyanin accumulation (causing the colour) may have a bitter taste, or at least some other associated thing does. I’ve only seen blue/purple grown outdoors, hydro could be different.

In regards to vaporizing; a common practice when I was living in NZ was to “spot” tightly rolled up balls of head - with hot knives on a stove. The hit was intense but so was the heat. When someone heard of vaporisers one was constructed, but no-one really liked the effect. One day a friend came over with a 'shop bought' machine which looked like a cross between a crystal ball and a bedside lamp. Certainly not the nifty looking model EJ posted. It worked no better than the home made one - that is until someone decided to try a bit of leaf oil. Absolutely floored everyone! Leaf oil!
That's the gold coloured sticky stuff prepared in fifteen minutes. I’m not mentioning the procedure, but it’s out there. It's also a highly dangerous exercise so be FUCKING careful if you're thinking of doing it. Don’t be like the someone I heard from, who thought they were away from potential flames, until upon completion it was noticed they were next to the gas hot water system! If the wind had of blown the wrong way…..
I mention oil because vaporizing it basically avoids most of the carcinogens of dope smoking, and therefore it should be seen as a valid HM option. Preparation though, is more than questionable in this regard.
Anyone tried white widow?
