Grinder Concern

Post by tombeck »

Hi guys!

I made all my preperations for dam:

not sure if I've posted this pic correctly, but if I have you'll see its just a load of papers and a grinder lol

I was concerned though of what the good people working at bristol airport would think of a metal grinder in my backpack

Ofc I wont be using it prior to amsterdam (its not even arrived yet I'm getting ahead of myself) so it will be brand new out of the box

Therefore i know i'm within the law, but it still seems risky what with this grinder costing a small fortune!

So was wodering if anyone has experience bringing metal grinders onto a plane and weather they've had any trouble

Sorry if this has been asked already, I'm at work so made myself look busy typing rather than searching through a coffeeshop site!

*oh also, I can imagine 'not worth the risk' being a popular answer, but I really want to break this badboy in with good weed, resulting in some nice kief!!

Thanks, tom

thanks for the quick replies!

yeh last time I went i used the free acrylic one from greenhouse for 3 days which was fine

but i really want to put alot of bud through this, and there isnt a better place to do that than dam

hi Usbonglord, yeh this is what I had in mind, I will make sure its completley clean when it comes back, and make sure its boxed up so it looks like it was bought as a pressie

thanks :)

Hi, 3rd day here in the dam, grinder made it over with no problem!
It's great, we smoked a j with a load of kief in and it was off the head!
So now I need to get some of this iso alcohol, I looked for kruidvaat but it's way out of town
Will keep looking in super markets
Thanks :)

Bong,
can you use nail polish to clean the grinder or will that have damaging effect once you have grounded up the herb?

Any one no where to get iso alcohol in uk.

Cheers

I have taken used grinders to and from Dam on a few occasions, but I now just donate the grinder to a group of coffeeshop on the last day. Depending where you fly to, will affect what I would do. UK, leave it in your bag, US mail it.
