The best grinder money can buy

Space case 4 piece titanium are the shiznit IMO.. super pricey but way sharp and last forever...

I never used a grinder for years and years, but once I did I can't imagine going back.. grinders make bud last way longer IMO by making a small nug a huge pile of ground weed which smokes much smoother and burns better as well..
I don't know how I ever lived without a grinder my first 20+ years of smoking tbh..
Same story for me...

More surface space = a better burn and a better buzz. I did worry about damaging trichs but i think it has very little impact.
Its also a must for vaporizers...

Ive heard most titanium grinders out there are actually alloy with aluminium, do not know the ratio, i do know that titanium is shit expensive and i can only imagine it being expensive to drill too. I would buy a titanium grinder if i knew it was 100 % titanium but i doubt anyone would be willing spend probably around 200 euro for a real titanium grinder.
I might have made some exarcebated assumptions there or have bad information.
I only smoke bongs pretty much, and i never liked picking nugs and packing a bowl. I always grind it, shape it into a wee ball with my fingers and i actually blow torch it from really far until the weed half burns half vaporises from the heat. It burhns much better when its ground and i find you dont use as much.
Ive always used a grinder, i went through a time i used to buy a plastic 1 for a quid every month cause theyre not really cleanable. Ive used crank grinders for a long time now and theyre pretty tits when it comes to the grinding action, though the screw of the crank will wear off with time (i am sure i have ground at least 1 kilo on the last grinder one but at a time). However since you are not rotating the top part of the grinder just the wheel inside spins, you dont get any of that gunky residue build up on the sides and such. Im a bit afraid a polycarbonate one would do the same since the plastic ones ive used are pretty much unusable after a few weeks.
Im pretty pissed off actually, i was gonna buy 2 grinders but then decided not to. I feel so bare without my grinder.
Also been reading a bit about metals and it seems that anodized aluminum doesnt shave off.
The space case grinders are just "aircraft grade" aluminium with a titanium anodized coating. It's still damned good though :) Definately going to be in the market for a 4 piece at some point. My 4 piece pollen blitz has lasted 7 years but is getting to the end of it's days. started off bright red, but i've used it so much i've worn the colour down to a pale pink/silver

I am using a 4" Santa Cruz Shredder. Excellent grind. Fluffy. Had some cheaper stuff before but the Cruz is very nice. Never used a Space Case

I'm telling you, imvho the grinder is probably the best canna invention in my life time..
Such a simple concept, but damn how I love them .. I did have an aluminum one that the threads got stripped and it wouldn't open, but don't have those issues with the ti ones..
And the keif collection is great too.. after I get so much I press up a nice chunk of hash in my lil keif press I bought .. thing works killer, get a nice penny sized nug of hash and put it on top of a bowl of bud..:):)

You and BarnBuster sold me on these devices.
Guess it's time to try one.

I got a super cheap plastic grinder from the attitude, some freebie, and that thing is a straight up piece of shit.. doesn't even stay closed with a tiny amount of bud in it and doesn't grind for poop.. I'd never buy a plastic one after truing to use that thing ..
If you don't have the money and or aren't sure if you'd like a grinder, I'd not run out and buy a space case, but I'd also not buy a crap plastic one either..

there you go giggles, looks like a nice bit of kit without having to drop $80 / $100 on a space case only to find out you don't like grinders, not that i can see that happening, but never know..
it's like i wanted to try a vaporizer, but didn't want to spend $700 or however much on a volcano, so i got an arizer v tower, and was soo glad i didn't spend tons of money on the volcano after trying the v-tower as i found out i am not a fan of vaporizers, and would have been really pissed if i spent top dollar and found out after..

RB has got the points down. They help the weed burn and are very practical. I've even got a grinder card. In all the clubs here you will find the plastic cheap grinders. I always hated the wooden ones with the spikes.

K-Lite- have u bought yet? You can get discount in the centre in El Ravel.

I bought this one about 10 years ago at a thrift store for $1.50 & I've used it every day since. I'd hate to guess how many pounds it has ground up over the years.:wink:
That's a cool idea.

At my local thrift shop today I saw ice shavers and some plastic cheese graders and a couple of Slap Chops. lol
Would any of those type things work?
(not the slap chop)
