How to properly use a diamond miner / pressure vessel

Back to your miner and amount you put in. If it’s still very runny, you may not have over vented. Though it will be harder to check if it’s well saturated.

Take more pictures of the pour and how much is in there and we might be able to get you through it

Good morning all… Im sorry for the late reply as its very close to harvest and man o man has it been a rough year for powder mold in Mi this year! I have been very busy to say the least, so thanks for your patience.
So since my miner does not have a sight glass it’s so hard to tell. This would have been so much easier if I would have seen it done just once in front of me as I learn so much better from watching.
Currently, it is liquid. the temp is set at 79.0 and I’m venting every day as it seems it took almost 2 whole days before the pressure started really going up. Vented 2 times yesterday as the pressure was at about 30psi and vented to about 10/12psi. Also it has been moved to my oven as its now empty. After you suggested it may not have enough space. I took some out and resealed it up and tried to crash it again fr 24 hrs.
If this is working how long will it take to form some diamonds? The reason I ask is space in my oven is always a problem. With me having to do 5 runs in the next week can I leave the miner in the oven and put in under vac? Will this screw with the miner? I really hope this turns out as Im starting to get requests for them.

I am in a rural area. I live in Northern Michigan about 45 minutes from the Mackinac bridge. Want to make a million dollars, just come to Michigan and open dry ice place. LMAO Funny because my friends that live down near Detroit pay .99 a lb. OMG what I would do for that…

Don’t tell them you are extracting. Tell them you are welding and using for quench bins. It will be 40-50 cents a lb then.

Thank you for the advice I will let some friends know that are in the same spot as me as for me I have an account at air gas, and never even asked me what it was for. I figured don’t ask don’t tell. :wink: They do however take care of me as a customer. When the weather was warmer I was getting a lot less return as I don’t have a freezer that a 50lb tank will fit in so I would bring tanks back that still had gas but no liquid to make dry ice ( to make dry ice tank must have dip tube) so they would 40% off me sometimes during summer months. Im at the point though where Im using 6-9 50lb tanks a month at $35 a shot…With outside Harvest around the corner that could triple.

Making dry ice with a dip tube is the most expensive way to get it. Buy it in pellets. They come out at 99.99% efficiency.

That damn cannabis tax!!

I think you may have missed a thread, as the only dry ice I can buy is 1.5 hrs away and is in block form and on top of it is 2.99 a lb. Running the set-up in which we have ( when i can keep it cold) is 2.19 a lb and when its damn near 80+ degrees outside it will cost me 3.15 per lb. Closest plact to sell pellets would be detroit area 4 hrs away.

what information do you have the refute it’s Safety

I’m about learning so if you have information I’d love to know it

Like I said I don’t have any dealings with the company other than I bought when the machines but I do know that that propellants been used in my oral medication sprayed in my lungs since I was five I’m sure that being a guinea pig for 43 years would’ve messed up my lungs if it was dangerous to inhale

See that’s the best evidence by far human trials

What exactly did my lips flap ?

Myself, mum and dad would love a trip to Canada ! If you want us to hold hands, we can do that.

I assure you my " attitude " is exactly the same in person as it is on here.

When can you arrange out tickets ?
Is it possible you can fly us business class as my parents are getting old and an economy flight across the Atlantic would be very taxing for them.

By the way, do you do any HVAC work ?

.02 ppm That’s a sensually 0 ppm so that’s only was left in the residual solvent how is that dangerous

Those aren’t statistics from the company that saw the machine with the results I gave you on the The oils testing was from a third-party lab
