Uhh, no. Meth does not equal crack. Just smoke your meth straight up, by itself.

i know that meth doesn't equal crack, but i'm wondering if you can use the same process to turn methamphetamine HCl into methamphetamine freebase and if this would have a stronger effect.
has anyone else out there tried this before?

Methamphetamine freebase is a oil. It would still be active of course, however how would you use it? It is not smokeable, not injectable, it is pretty much useless as far as consumtion goes. Methamphetamine is already easy to vaporize. The purpose in freebasing cocaine is because when you burn cocaine hcl some of it is vaporized and inhaled, some of it is also turned into other products and carbon matter is recieved into the lungs. In effect your smoking harsh tars and other chemicals along with the cocaine. If you freebase it you lower the melting point of the chemical and it is vaporized under heat and you do not inhale all that other junk. This is a property true of COCAINE. Not Methamphetamine. Freebasing methamphetamine IS COMPLETLY AND TOTALY POINTLESS.
