Damn man, I don't know about all the hate on a regular lighter, all the dealing with the beeswax rope. If you hate the flint smoke taste, light the lighter, wait 2 seconds then put the lighter to the bowl. Keep your lighter as far away from the dope as possible, you won't torch it. That what I hate... people torching the dope. Just keep the lighter as far away as possible, and then when it starts smoking keep it lit with your lungs. Corner the bowl, even when alone.
When I'm smoking something nice, the flame never touches the weed.
The best way to light weed is with a magnifying glass or a glow rod. Nothing will be burning but the weed itself.
torched glass wand.
magnifying glass.
A magnifying glass, you got a lot of time on your hands?
Alot of people swear by a soldering iron. I could never get it to work though. I prefer my trusty bic.
Nah, I didn't. Was I supposed to?It's what I use. Clean glass + soldering iron = tasty. It is like a solar hit but I can chill on my couch. You can also use it as a tamper while pulling.
Did you take the metal part of so that the ceramic heating element was exposed?
