I’ve seen that grease on brand new trs’s Before. Cps don’t give a fuck about us or our health and take all the shortcuts they can making that pump. Included are using hot glue to help make it “sparkproof” or whatever, and that nasty black I’m sure non food grade grease on the pumps internals… I bet that crap was in your buddy’s pump from jump.

Nope, that right there is errr was crude. A lot of it. I had more pics that didn’t post. And I know what it looked like before, not her first time on my bench.

A minor issue comparatively, but always keep a second trusted thermometer of one sort or another around.
In the beginning I wasted many hours waiting for CBD to dissolve in a luke warm solution because I mistakenly believed the digital readout on my equipment and apparently have girly fingertips now… I miss my cook hands.

Opening a pressured collection vessel on a 5 lb butane C LS. Entire upper body covered in BHO as well as my car, funny thing was the car was such a piece of shit, i estimated the BHO on the car was worth 4x as much the car. Still drove it around Seattle collecting dust and hair

I ordered a pair of super cheap 24/40 Teflon stoppers on eBay. It turns out they were super cheap because they were just Teflon coated steel… I found that out earlier this week when I couldn’t find my glass stoppers right away, so I opted to use my Teflon stopper and apparently it expanded much more than the glass joint allowed for after being heated. The $50 I saved on these stoppers was far outweighed by the $200 boiling flask I had to replace after the stopper broke the side neck. Not to mention what this down-time is costing me. 
On the bright side though, I did get to use this opportunity to order some inexpensive spare parts from Chemglass along with the new boiling flask that I’ve been putting off because of the shipping cost. Silver linings…

Years ago I pulled a vac on the vacuum oven with a fresh slab in it. Got distracted walked away only to come back to the inside of the oven covered entirely with yellow gold bho dripping from the ceiling and walls of the oven. Man. That was fun cleaning smh 
Lol. Never walk away from an oven with the vac on.

6 years ago, when I first came to Cali, my partner at that time removed a BHOGART immersion heater from the water bath without turning off the temperature controller. He hung it from a hook on the wall right next to a stack of unused power 5X butane master cases and then he went to bed. Well, when the temp probe is in water but the heater is not, the temp ramps up infinitely. I woke up to the smell of smoke and a ran down the stairs to discover a garage full of smoke and a white-hot immersion heater burning a hole in the brick wall. Very lucky…very very lucky

Put a quart jar of CO2 crude into a microwave to warm/soften…didn’t realize there was a pool of water in the bottom. When it boiled, it ‘bumped’ the overlying crude, nicely painting the inside of the ‘wave. Standing right next to it, too…

No, this is a common mistake known as pride. Just because you have good dick and patience doesn’t mean you are a good farmer or boyfriend.
Women will communicate their needs non-verbally. Tell matt that its too cold in his grow room and he needs to take that girl out on a date bro
