Hey everyone, This is my attempt at home made Iced Bubble Hash. :)
*Comments Welcome*

Well I did a bit of experimenting the other day. I've been wanting a set of bubble bags for a while now, so I started thinking of how to make them. I went to fabric stores & found nothing to use for durable walls. Then I thought, "Why does it have to be a bag??" Anyways, I went out the next day and bought my screens (220, 73 & 25 micron mesh). Then I bought 4 3 gallon buckets, cut out the bottoms of 3 of them and attached the screens with rubber-bands and aquarium clear epoxy. (I was making it up as I went along Sorry for no pics of this) I made it cure for 3 days then tried her out on some leaf trimmings and small buds. Here are the pics, Enjoy!

Cheers

Thanks, Its actually pretty good. Didnt really expect to get the result i did. The only thing is that I think I wanna add a 160 or so micron screen. That should improve my grades.

Yeah I was gonna ask why you didn't have like 1 more at least. How was all the bowl toppins?

Yes, they are. He's smart, because the bubble BAGS that are already made are like 300-500 bucks.

Speaking of that, Phrasty, where'd you get the micron screens?

Thanks for the reps, The screens I got at an art store and the buckets are $3 buckets from the hardware store with lids. Good deal if you ask me! It all cost under $30 to make. Im sorry i dont have pics of the construction. Ill take them when i make the 160 micron one. (reason for not having it b4 was that the art store's manager had gone on leave and locked the rest of the screens in storage and took the key... brilliant guy if you ask me! Can't make this shit up!) lol.

Cheers. :D

Those are screens like what they use for tshirts then, am I right?

If so, there's a Hobby Lobby right down the road! Sweet.

Yup thats right. Your local art store should have. The thing is they have them labeled under a thread count number... for example the 75 micron was the 220 Tct and the 25 micron was the 305 Tct. Do a search online for screen printing mesh specs. You should find out what to ask for there. After that its just cutting the bucket and adhering the screen.

Cheers
