Pill Binding question..........

[RiseFromRuin]

ok...i'm curious as to just how chemicals get binded into pill form...like say you had 100mg of dxm ( yeah it's dumb, but i would say MDMA but this is other drugs) and wanted it pressed into a pill....what are the steps...i mean, you have a pile of powder, and what is the nest step?? Binders and such yeah, but what is the actually physical process...it's not like you take a mini muffin tin and dump chems into tiny holes then coat it with a binder...

you need a pill press. if i'm not mistaken they cost at least $600 for a cheap one. just use a capsule.

no..it's not a personal use question..i'm just curious..
so if you press 100mg of pure MDMA together hard enough it will bind together, without the addition of other chems??

nope, you need a binder

You need a binder, filler, and lubricant.. I don't have any specific examples, but it's all mixed together, then using a few tons of pressure, struck into a tablet - a pill press will cost you more then $600, with a cheap one going for about $15,000 used...
