Homemade wireless ball vape
I recently got into ball vapes and wanted to build my own wireless one for cheap.
Bought some 304 ss 25mm tube and 3mm balls.
So far it works ok, needs some polishing ^^ but nice clouds.

Haha glad you like it, i wasnt trusting this would work that good tbh, but so far i'm pretty impressed and question my will to buy a "real one ^^.
And i have plenty of materials to build some more and experiment.

Sod the so called real ones your rolling off one of a kind personal handcrafted why would you possibly want to waste the $$$
Get more bud in for the press instead ๐ #result

Excellent!
You need to get on the "Stoner Engineering" thread with this. I'm sure Deadrabb1t would love this. :)

Mate this looks amazing! How do I even get started if I want to do something like this? Keep hearing about these vapes being all the range but the only one I found in the UK was over 300 quid!
If you have access to some cheap, vape safe tubing (stainless steel i used) and some balls (i used ss too, but can be glass, etc..) you just need to figure a way to stick the balls in the tube.
Then you need a pid + coil (100$ approximately).
All in all it will roughly cost the same as ordering a kit at cloud conoisers as suggested by Deadrabbit (idk for the taxes when it pass by customs tho).

RVS has now some really affordable ball vapes (well with no balls but it seems to work quite nice) ;)

One thing to consider too when messing with hot balls is that they burn :D
My first attempt at fixing th balls ended in hot balls flying everywhere and burning me lol.

Green Finger's Forbidden Fruit Bubble Hash:
https://littlebiggy.com/item/LrbyVK6lhEobKlwFWX14ut2O/view/p
A more shattery consistency and an interesting fruity taste.

Some random local buds pressed low temp, way lighter color than most of the hash from here i tried pressing (less oxidation), that stuff is fire:
Pressed a little bit of Hashishin's Temple Ball:

Nice returns color and taste on this one :)
I put a little bit in an XMAX V-ONE atomizer, took 3-4 puffs and i'm flyin ^^

Oww yeah i think i have a different model.

This one is for concentrates only ^^
But i since received a divine crossing DTV5 and it's way way better in every apsect ! ;)

DTV5 sounds interesting, I'm using a AIO coil king and a Core 2.1 rig (both by Crossing) for concentrates. Both good so far as I know but not much to compare them to.
Yeah this thing is cool as a portable dab rig and as a main rig with some accessories (made a quick review of it https://littlebiggy.com/link/3niNEn and DeadRabb1t posted his next level rig with the DTV5).
Never tried coil atomisers for wax but they seem very practical for an in the pocket dab device (i use carts for this).
Core 2.1 looks like a traditional rig cant go wrong ^^

Sounds like I'm doing ok then. I can't get that link to work, tried copy and paste etc.
I like them all, tho i think it's better to only press bubble hash if you want good returns.
Unfortunately i dont weight my stuff before/after cause i dont really care :p

Hehe..Brilliantโฆbet thereโs not much left in your house that hasnโt got the press treatment?๐โฆhave you started on the contents of the fridge yet?๐
Haha, yeah i might have gone on a pressing frenzy since i received the press :p, i find the process fun and relaxing !
And definitely i'm hooked to dabing, those flavours :D

Yeah I know a friend of a friend who bought a press and just canโt stop. Even the dogโs looking worried!๐ณ
I would recomend anyone to buy a press, it's so fun and way more enjoyable for me than smoking taste wise.
I wouldnt try to press living things tho x), and dog rosin i expect would taste like wet fur ehh.

Tastes like the hash it came from, pretty unusual dab but still very enjoyable :p

Filter hash (mango gum) was very dark and tastes like old school uk rocky. Think bubble hash is the way forward.
Yeah decent quality bubble hash is the best returns wise and usually a pleasure to dab in my experience, the fresher the better ;)
How much bubble hash do you press each time??
I've never done a bubble run and I've only got 120 bags
I've never done a bubble run and I've only got 120 bags
I dont really weight it, i just fill a 90u or less bag with it double it with a 120 and press.
I think i pressed between 5g and 8g at a time for now.
I feel with bubble hash you can press a lot more at once than with flower.

I'm gunna watch some videos on the Tube as I press 10 grams flower that's in a cylinder shape as wide as a ยฃ2 coin. I turn my bags inside out, poke the two corners in then fill with flower
I do the inside out bottle technique too for flower, i've seen good returns going that way :), for hash i feel no need to bother with it, way more important to fold your parchment paper well so that the rosin flows away from the press, and go slow.
Nice......
All advice is noted for sure.
Most important factor is speed I'm thinking. Blow outs are the main enemy with the hash game yeah?? Have just watched couple vids

Got to love a bit of pressing.
That all looks fucking A but some expensive gear to be experimenting on but that's how you learn.
What was or has been your best return and is it been mostly hash pressing?
What size of bags you using or you experimenting with that also?

Yeah i guess some of it will seem like a waste but since i tryed dabs i cant really smoke anymore if i have a choice ^^
Best returns for now are the oily bubble hashes in general, HashHeads Cashmiri ice / Green finger Candy Kush for exemple gave me good returns.
I wouldnt recommend pressing the blonde/red lebs / most super dry stuff cause returns arent so good, and the black morrocan hashes are not the best dabs taste wise i still prefere to smoke them.
I mostly press hash cause thats mostly what i get, i got a pic of some local buds rosin in this post (only flower i pressed).
I use 35ฮผ double bagged with a 90ฮผ for hash and 90ฮผ for flowers cause thats what i have, i dont really care for the best return, i try to do a second press if i feel there is much left and i think i'll use the remaining pucks to make some butter/experiments.

Forgot to say but if it was implied I thought that was a waste. Me bad
Far from it ma man.
Like you say you get a lot more than the one press plus the pucks ๐

Was the part on the expensive gear ^^ (and i think some ppl wont like to see red leb pressed lol), no worries tho :).
Yeah for me its worth it to press anything :D, not cheap to get smashed lol.

Cheers man. Interesting to know and I would think that regarding the type of hash. Just curious in regards to return but as you say it's not everything.
Product is king!
Thanks again and keep pressing away mate. I love them and much fun to be had

Hashishin's Lebanese Range Rover: https://littlebiggy.com/item/qAHTujfuMFxIGrBL1PawGFjp/view/p
Experimented adding some terpenes to this one cause it wasnt the best, it's now more oily, tasty, etc.. :D
A bit of whatโs left from my press of uk street haze flower. Actually very good return with a stunning but very heavy high ๐คช
Was lovely, some uk street bought haze. But look at the picture, itโs very fresh must be growing very local to me. Itโs the best looking flower rosin Iโve had to date (I donโt grow) and the flower never came from LB, But some of the best bud Iโve had has come from here, but itโs just not fresh enough for good looking rosin.
I made some Rosin last night and got a just under 35% return. I use 10 grams of flower a time to make it easy for the sums. Like Colin said fresh flower is key
Yeah its caked in them. The Coco Milk runs purple through her core, fingers crossed for a decent colour. Ill press 10 grams and hope for 3+ grams return. I press at 105c I think
I can almost taste it looks delightful
I honestly wouldnโt be able to press it lmao just want to stare at it ๐

To be fair it's pretty dam special in every aspect of being special. It's strong, with an instant head high. Gas with a slight dawg taste on the exhale.

Homemade rosin carts
Hey there,
Experimented doing some rosin carts :D.
I first attempted to put decarbed rosin in a ccell th2 but it cloged on me :/
So i decided to experiment a bit more and ordered some th205-RR that are made for thicker extracts.
I filled them with various decarbed rosin i have here and so far it works pretty nice :).
Straight hash rosin: works pretty nice, better to have lighter on hand to help the rosin flow a bit better.
Getho QWISO (from rosin): works really nice but i'm not sure i purged it perfectly soo a bit nasty i guess.
2:1 rosin:cbd distillate: works the best so far and has a nice taste :D
Adding terpenes from cali terpenes to rosin: works ok but the taste is a bit "artificial" not bad but not the best.

How easy did you finished to make? I generally use half a ml of wax liquidizer now per gram, it does slightly affect the taste though.
I dont really understand the question ^^.
To make i only decarb rosin and add some cbd distillate (this is what i like the most, tastes awesome and easy to wick) and it works like a charm in ccell th205-RR, the other carts i need to test more.
Straight decarbed rosin in th205-RR worked good too and still good after a refill.
Pretty easy to make only need a heat source.
I prefere not to use wax liquidizer :p cause i want the product to be only cannabis derived.

Bought some PCKT SPRK Ceramic 2 to try them, filled it with 2:1 rosin:cbd dist, they taste great, better than ccell th205-RR but they produce less vapor.
I think i might prefere them to ccell ones.
What carts do you guys use for straight rosin/rosin with distillate ?

I received some too but need further testing, wicking holes seems really small on them i hope they wont clogg :p
Nope first time i hear from them, they seems great on paper thanks :), i'll check that out.
And yeah warming up the carts with lighter works when it's too thick.

hey I make homemade vapes - not rosin - normally resin and distillate - but anyway i've tried a few carts and right now I love these - https://ukvapecarts.co.uk/index.php/product/vg02-full-glass-cartridge-1ml/
Iโm gutted, I really wanted to like the glass ones, but they just lose to much flavour! Very important in a live resin cart, worked with them to meany times because I wanted them to work, and the all ceramic ones when they work they are amazing best flavour by far, but there to temperamental. Iโm still testing.

Divine Crossing v5 concentrate heater / 510 box compatible (quick review)
Hello dab enjoyers :p,
In my quest for a portable dab system i can bring to holidays/partys i recently aquired a divine crossing v5 atomiser/heater (https://ineedhemp.com/product/divine-crossing-v5-rebuildable-concentrate-ceramic-heater/) and this thing is awesome !
I find it really easy to use (i use it with an istick pico and it's perfect), easy to clean, and the result is very tasty dabs with a thick vapor :D.
I find using little concentrate and adding a terp pearl makes it even better !
Did you guys try this little thing ?

Sadly they dont send to EU :/, i searched with no success an eu supplier for bottomless banger and 510 extension.
What materials did you use to make your custom cable ? (i'm ok with soldering etc ;) )

Looks like a cool piece of kit. Iโve only just tried 510 threaded distillate and resin carts.
One thing that has put me off dabs is the idea of it being easier to burn through your stash due to it being heavily concentrated?
Takes a while to get through a lot of bud just from rolling or filling dry herb vape caps but dabs I feel itโs be easy for me to be a twat and burn through the full weeks stash in a dayโฆ or are my concerns unfounded?

Well your concerns are founded but i'd say it's a person to person thing.
anyways if you overdo it you'll just sleep like a baby :p haha, a little goes a very long way with concentrates and i dont find myself going through the stash faster than if i were just smoking.

You only use a tiny amount for a very strong effect. That said they can be very more-ish and shoot your tolerance to the moon so plenty of self control required ๐

Best EU hash on here ?
Hello hash lovers :)
What is the best hash you found on here that ships to EU ?
For the moment my favorite one is Nero's jetfuel og bubble hash.

Yes Hashishin got some really nice Hash indeed if you are more into old school material :)
Hi guys, long timer here on LB.
Recently moved to Germany after many years in the UK.
Could you guys recommend any Vendors that Ship interstate Germany preferably? (if any around)
I know Nero ships from Spain, that being said trying to take the least risk as possible.
Maybe some Dutch guys around?
The situation is slowly changing in the fatherland, even though keeping it as low key as possible.
Thanks!

Hey,
It seems most of the EU hash on here is in spain.
Idk for some Dutch guys ^^
Hopefully we will see it become legal all across europe while we still breathe :D

long term effects you've experienced from cannabis?
I can relate to that lol, pretty efficient !

long term effects you've experienced from cannabis?
have you been been re-wired? i know i think much more openly than as a padawon and my control group of friends/haters is the opposite.
I have a few side affects
Intolerance to people's BS
An overwhelming desire to do fuck all
A lack of dreams (mine were crushed years ago anyway)
An unexplainable hatred of Ed Sheeran
And I have also found I still have the purile humour of a school boy
Otherwise I'm fine

True but my hatred goes beyond rational, to the point that half of my life is dedicated to plotting various methods of his demise. My favourite would be to not actually kill him but plant some kiddy porn on his PC, ruin him proper, Glitter styley
Long term use has a deleterious effect on my short term memory and cognitive function (although it seems to stabilise a few months in). I can mitigate some of those losses by taking CBD before bed, but it sucks because it also kills your buzz.
Also, not sure this is a side effect or a benefit, but I often have moments of insight and clarity while high. Things I'll bury away, procrastinate over, or stuff that simply exists in my subconscious will come to the fore. In some people that triggers paranoia and anxiety, but for me it's a catalyst to grab a pen and record my inner monologue.
That said, I'm due a huge break (starting March), as I have some writing jobs to do and I need to learn to drive because my mum is chronically ill.
Time to sharpen the old pencil for a few months and then blunt it in the summer.๐คฉ

Sweet I write at least 3x stoned with 10x moments. Yes there are - 3x times as well but they have disappeared with experience. Like my memory :)
Paragraph 2! Spot on. During a paragraph 2 moment, i decided to report my manager to the Regulatory Authority for our industry. Which I then did.
Weight gain. All strains manage to give me the munchies, and my self-control flies out the window. I can plow through a block of Soreen in under five minutes - I shit you not!
Yep I've deffo got the weight gain going on. Currently "trying" to diet ๐ now wheres them choccy bickies ๐คฃ
I feel you. Think the only buds that never made me ravenous were Durban Poison and Blue Dream
It's the tastiest, lowest-fat snack I've found so far. Four green and one orange on the health traffic lights. I wish I could trade it for Dairy Milk, but that's when the serious poundage appears.
Haha why would anyone lie about that? The 'Honestly' was superfluous.
I know exactly what you mean though ๐

The only real negative effect for me is short term memory loss, which the pros massively outweight the cons.
I have Asperger's but smoking weed helps massively, my thoughts tend to race but with weed it slows everything down, I can focus on one thing.
This is huge for me because the racing thoughts leas to anxiety as I'm trying to think of too much too quickly and a lot small, simple problems combine and it feels overwhelming. Not with weed though.
For some reason it seems to "fix" that part of my brain. And it actually allows me to be content with existence.

One long term effect is a better sex life, makes you harder, last longer ,feel more and is definitely an aphrodisiac;)
TLDR: short term memory loss, apathy yet decisiveness, psychological expansion, hope.
Introduced back in the 90s in college, along with other recs ๐ as part of the London clubbing scene.
Lots of commercial hash about at the time which was demotivating in hindsight.
The weed mostly skunk and I remember fondly the laughs had, and epiphanies too.
I was a late teenager and combined with hallucinogens and later spiritual practices had some kind of brain rewiring that was terrifying and awe inspiring.
Iโd quit for nearly 20 years before trying again about 4 year ago but that grew and Iโve been consuming and experimenting daily since lockdown. I even grew my own - 3 solo cups of StarDawg, Black Hulk and Easy Bud. Well proud!
Iโve always been sensitive and having a more psychedelic experience wasnโt uncommon. Even on tiny one hitters and I had a year of not only having a tiny tolerance but intense highs that were mostly bringing my subconscious to the surface and tbh all hell broke loose in all areas of my life. Like psychedelics, if you are of the persuasion to be interested in the big questions or have a past thatโs traumatic, then itโs going to make you face it and give you the stark reality of the human experience.
Iโve been able to work through it but I fear for the masses who are embarking on their inner journeys unprepared. Not my circus but I have a heart and an understanding that the truths revealed can be devastating to the mind as well as freeing, perhaps providing the liminal space for humans to evolve thatโs drowned out by this materialistic and oppressive world.
I love being high. Itโs addicting for me. The escape. The creativity and ability to think and pose multi-angled concepts is simply exhilarating and I believe can help solve some of our most challenging problems globally, and locally in our families - my wife hates it but prefers me on it for example. Her hate is ignorance mind.
Iโve realised that for me, daily is more about tolerance, habit and escape. Itโs our choice but you have to live with the costs and as someone said, the weeks and years go by and one can be happy with just taking life inโฆ philosophically, I do have issues with this so Iโm looking to be more ritualistic and purposeful with it as well as have moments when just to enjoy and experiment.
Iโve been shocked by the tolerance build up which really became noticeable after I found LB ๐คฃ seems a waste as I found in the last 2 months that the high doesnโt hit as hard or as long and that sucks โcause you feel like youโre chasing the buzz but itโs not, itโs the escape for me, but Iโm aware of it, and Iโm in control.
Introduced back in the 90s in college, along with other recs ๐ as part of the London clubbing scene.
Lots of commercial hash about at the time which was demotivating in hindsight.

also started using cannabis again in lockdown after about 20 years.... looking out the windows high AF thinking fuck this shit was true enlightenment lol
Yeah, weed makes me super withdrawn if I let myself smoke all the time, it's ended relationships and has brought my current one to the brink, Im trying therapy and smoking less indica during the day.
Used to get globus sensation from high thc bud but thats gone these days.

โGlobus sensationโ thanks ๐๐พ
I also get this reaction from time to time and it coincides when I feel the weed is strong.
Also have other strange sensations which my anxiety labels as dangerous so my fight or flight kicks in.
Iโve learned that this is more about past sh*t being brought into the now and these effects of the body are just responses.
The challenge is to ride it out and then I find the experience is smoother โ๐ฝ

Once you know whatโs really in your head it becomes easy. Bud makes you really understand, helps you get deep into your thoughts. Itโs like a light bulb moment when you wake. Takes alot of work but we keep on tokin ๐
I have ADHD, without it my brain is like bag of snakes, every direction at once.
Even with it i struggle sometimes but its more like that glowy ball thing Will 'The Slap' Smith releases in Men in Black that caused the 1977 New York blackout.
Theres a squirrel on the balcony gotta go...

After ~15 years of heavy use daily I've got short/long term memory loss but I used to take other drugs so I'm not sure. I've got a neuralogical disability and weed helps keep me out of a wheelchair ect. The desire to be alone is because of choosy beggars not weed. Also I'm a huge man baby, also unrelated (maybe).
As with everything, moderation is key, as a habitual smoker, smoking daily for many years through pipe or bong, minimal use of tobacco, I am unsure whether its caused or calmed my temper.
The mental addiction is apparent whenever I try to detox or take a break i.e, low mood, depressive thoughts, lack of appetite (physical?)
It's all perspective and a lack of dopamine production so I am aware of my low mood when I feel it but can be hard to pull away from without distraction, it comes to pass after a few days, though the mood swings and negativity have already done their damage.
I think I have developed a bit of a dependency on it, the only solution is a long break.
I have a total love/hate relationship with the plant but right now it keeps me calm, very calm.

Long term for me personally it's had negative effects on a huge scale. I am day 4 off weed and feel so happier. I have seen lots same similar. I am dreaming again. Gym and Swimming. Weed really kept and held me back all my life.
Similar to psychedelics, it brings anything Iโm avoiding or ignoring to bare. Which can lead to both productive and counterproductive action. Overall I think it helps expand consciousness if youโre willing, appreciate nature and the fact you are part of it. Not something thatโs alien and just here by fluke. Sometimes I think it activates something that throws subliminal tests at you. For instance with the munchies, I know not to eat veggie oils, colourants, refined sugar and anything processed/ not organic. But when stoned to the bone that bag of haribo or sitting doing nothing sure does appeal. if I cave and do the above, the next day Iโm almost ashamed I let the gremlin win. But if I push through eat some fruit and go climb that mountain, I feel instantly fulfilled. I know this may be abit nonsensical but Iโve been sober this week๐
Peace. Freedom from 90% of my physical pain. Inflamation reduction & much more. Those are long term, 50 years, it builds up.
Great question.
I'm over 50, in gainful employment, reasonably fit and slim but an unhealthy diet for balance. Vape daily up to 0.4g but usually 0.2g max. Anyhoo, about 2g max a week but I'm using less strong flower just now, with better gear, I'd be using a lot less. Don't drink alcohol at all.
I too find incredible moments of clarity, especially after a hard day.
Vaping means i dehydrate a lot quicker and need to drink more water. I'd say my balance is less than 100% probably due to residual effects if anything. Overall I'm doing ok. The knowledge i have gained over the years and still need is not yet affected by daily use. Possibly a good barometer for things.

My short term memory isnโt what is used to be, and my short term memory isnโt that good either.
This is probably an old thread, but itโs been an interesting read. I relate to most of the comments.
I have to say Iโm pretty sure my memory has been adversely affected, but itโs almost impossible to say for sure right? Thereโs loads of factors.
But, the benefits are pretty substantial like. The shift in perspective was huge for me, I think itโs why conspiracy guys are often stoners - there is a sense of enlightenment at times, as wanky as that sounds.
Thereโs something communal about smoking as well I think, and I think it tends to make people generally more community minded, nature friendly and left leaning. Could just be a correlation or whatever but itโs pretty cool imo.

Any metalheads on here?
Hey guys hope youโre all having a cool weekend. Just wondering are there Any metalheads on LB? I love most metal but my fave genres are probably blackgaze and post black metal. I really like Alcest and Panopticon Iโd say theyโre the bands Iโm listening to the most right now. I remember people telling me when I was a teenager Iโd grow out of metal,well Iโm in my 40s now and still listening just as much if not more. It really is a way of life. Love and peace.
The 90s had such amazing metal bands. So many genres were exploding and were so exciting. Wasnโt so keen on that rap metal mind. I loved RATM but the ones that followed like Limp Bizkit were pretty dumb.
Sorry dude didnโt mean to offend anyone. Just didnโt personally like Limp Bizkit. Sorry.
Oh sorry man I thought you meant I was preaching to you. Yeah I loved the first Korn album hated the 2nd but loved the 3rd album. Stopped following them after that but still like the odd track after the 3rd album. Alone I break is an awesome track.
I remember seeing Pantera at the Ozzfest back in 98. Amazing set and a wild pit not as crazy as the Soulfly pit a set later that was insane. Love early Deftones up to the White Pony album.
yes but thrash, osdm, 1st wave black metal and the list goes on. So quite a different list but yeah I'm a metalhead
Celtic Frost are probably my fave out of the 1st wave black metal bands. Did you not get on with the 2nd wave of black metal? There are some great bands.
No I do just lower down on my list. Celtic frost absolutely genius band although there was a time they were called death metal
Early Dimmu Borgir for me mate. First 2 albums are great(even the ripped off track on the 2nd album) went off them when they expanded their sound.
sorgens is one of my fave tracks pity m8 i love most of their stuff although my fave albums are Puritanical and In sorte. stormblast will always hold a special place in my heart..
Of course Screamo counts man! Love myself a bit of Mice&Men and Bring Me The Horizon. Not sure if theyโre Screamo bands?
I'm mid-forties now and grew up on bands like Metallica, Pantera, Machine Head and NIN. I've always been into other stuff as well but it's what I mostly listened to during my teens and twenties.
I don't listen to metal as much as I used to however I've found the old adage that your tastes mellow with age to be untrue in my case. I listen to some much heavier, more extreme bands than I used to and I'm much more open to sub genres I wouldn't have considered before.
My current favourite heavy listen is Lullabies for Eternal Sleep by Apes. Hadn't heard of them until I read a brief review that described that EP as being sort of like post-metal if all the quiet bits were replaced with nasty grindcore. One listen and I'd bought the tracks off Bandcamp. The first track, Cornwall, is savage but has such an amazing groove too.
If you like blackened stuff then check out Apes' earlier album, Lightless. Different to the latest material but still bloody good.

I pretty much listen to every metal track thrown at me with passion :D.
I love albums in every genre.
Some of my favorites bands are Decapitated, Dimmu Borgir, TBDM, born of osiris, meshuggah, lamb of god, well theres too much really ^^..
Metal is definitely a way of life.
Recently i've been listening to the Nomad album by Kublai Khan (insane tone/sound) and a gradual decline in moral by Kim Dracula, pretty strange shit but i love it haha.

1."Reign in Bud" - Slayer (A stoner metal twist on Slayer's classic "Reign in Blood")
2."Black Sabbath's Munchies" - Black Sabbath (Featuring their heaviest hits to satisfy the munchies)
3."Master of Bongs" - Metallica (An epic blend of metal and cannabis-inspired anthems)
4."Weed the Lightning" - Megadeth (Thrashing through the green haze with high-intensity riffs)
5"Paranoid and Paranoider" - Black Flag (A punk-infused, paranoia-inducing masterpiece for the metalheads who like to keep it raw)

I go a lot of gigs and download/bloodstock festival. Some of the best music to have a smoke to.
Yeah probably the most community, friendly festival Iโve been to. Really chilled and thereโs not too many people like major festivals.
lots of metal plays at the local gym, Sepultura, Nailbomb, SOAD, Pantera, Mastodon, Deftones, DOWN, Black Label Society, TOOL and some others I cant remember the name of
Seeing Municipal Waste again in October, really looking forward to that one
Recomendations wise, I've been really digging some of the "new wave trad" by the likes of Eternal Champion and Visigoth, super cheesy power metal about goblins and dragons, epic stuff...

Thanks for the recommendations man Iโll check them out. Iโm seeing Alcest in October and canโt wait for that.
Must be more then a few metalheads here on LB for sure.
Right now I'm waiting for the re-recording by the Calavera brother's of the Morbid Visions record. Absolutely can't bloody wait for that! Artwork is on point and the sound, my goodness.
But otherwise, been on a death metal vibe recently - the new 200 Stab Wounds EP and the new Kruelty record basically.

Yeah I was thinking the same,thatโs why I made the post just to see what bands everyone was into.
Oh if they get that right it should be awesome. Early Sepultura rocks. Love the Arise album lost interest around Roots. That album wasnโt for me. I really like Derrick on vocals even though a lot of Max fan boys gave him a hard time when he joined.

Tonight I've been listening to Cult of Luna and Boris. Last night it was Lamp of Murmuur and Fluisteraars. I'm in my 50s. Metal seems to make more sense the older I get but then the type of metal I listen to now is different from the metal I listened to at 16. Except for Sabbath. Always Sabbath ๐คMusic just keeps on getting better.
Absolutely love Cult Of Luna their Salvation album was incredible! Canโt remember if it was their debut? Give Panoption a listen man especially there again into the light album it is pure genius. Austin Lunn plays over a dozen instruments on the album. Canโt wait to see them next month on their first ever UK tour. Always Iron Maiden for me mate though I do obviously love Sabbath.
Oh yeah I love Panopticon too. I was listening to And Again... last night. Also Botanist and Wolves In The Throne Room, sheer sheets of metallic sound, hypnotic riffs it's damn psychedelic as a genre in many ways. Also into stuff like Thou and Primitive Man, I was listening to the last Wormrot album the other day. There's just so much good stuff and such massive variety that it's impossible to not like something that's "metal" if you're into music. If anyone avoids metal they should take a deep dive into all the sub genres cos they'd be surprised at how much they would probably love. From Sunn O))) to Full of Hell and all the stops in between.
Theyโre ..again into the light album is so good. I found it very accessible compared to their earlier stuff. Still really enjoy their early folk metal inspired stuff. Kentucky is fantastic. I was lucky enough to see Wolves In The Throne Room a few years back. Beautiful gig. It was bombastic and majestic all at once. ๐ค
I saw Panopticon a few years back over in Dutchie land, enjoyed them but haven't paid much attention to them since.Do you like Wayfarer? They do a similar type of thing kinda country tinged BM.
Really like Wayfarer too and a Scottish band called Saor. They play a similar style to Panopticon. Canโt wait to see them live,Iโve waited years for them to visit the UK. Gotta travel a few hundred miles but it will deffo be worth it. Much love.
Mate it looks epic!! Panopticon are headlining day one and are playing their entire Roads To The North album!! The entire weekend looks genuinely great too.
Dad got me into metal with sabbath i have to agree nearly 40 now .... So many metal genres would not exist without them ..
Yeah Sabbath are definitely the godfathers of metal. Without them half the genres today wouldnโt exist.
and if you into black metal check out Blackbraid they just relesed their second album its Native american black metal if you like melodic stuff check em out i feel they are only going to get better...
Thanks for the recommendation man. Iโll check them out later on they sound very intriguing.

Thanks I'll check that out, I've got some experience with BHO and have been pleased with the end product. My problem with rosin is that you have to use quality buds to get a reasonable amount of extract

Better of using ethanol extraction. Butane is way too dangerous to be cooking with inside any residence

Best sport stoned?
Surf :D
Deffo ๐ฏ used to fish as a nipper and finally got round to getting back into it a couple of years back. Even had a guy who dropped off at me local spot ๐คฃ๐๐ฃ
Fishing tops it for me, pool and darts too,nothing too energy intensive but swimming is always good
Archery is fun. I once bought from a guy who had a bunch of targets set up in his garden and would let me shoot a few arrows when I picked up.
I hit the gym stoned, take saunas stoned, go mountain hiking stoned, go cycling stoned, but there is zero competitive nature... As I'm lazy!
snowboarding gets the gold. well until they take it back
Roller Skating with some good tunes in your ears.
Juggling is great once you have some flow.

I love having a smoke and going mountain biking , turning my phone off for a few hours and just going out and getting lost in the forest
You hit the nail on the head, when the suns out like today, jump on the bike and hit the forest, big joint and then ride. Bliss!
Yep exactly what I like to do too, I named a bench near the start of my local trails 'spliff bench'.
I had planned to do exactly that today, but got covid for Easter instead.

To watch or participate? If its just to watch I can watch any old shite stoned. Found myself watching lawn bowls once, but you can't beat topless volleyball. To participate being stoned, well, gotta be driving, personally I drive much better after a smoke and have more patience with others. The fact I have no licence for a year is a testimony to that, dunno why the courts don't share my opinion, cunts
