I'm going to be purchasing a MFLB very soon and wanted a recommendation on a grinder off amazon. Would something like this work or what?

Cali Crusher- $24.95

Chromium Crusher - $15.95

Ballin' on a budget 4 pc - $4.62

• I own this in purple
  
• I can't roll joints so I bought this
  
• And if you get the roller you're gonna need these
  
• I don't own this but I wish I did
  
• Want to transfer joints from place to place with no scent and without them breaking? Simple investment
  
  Anything else you might need?

Does it happen to be this? If it is, I'd really like to hear how good/bad it is. :]

I'm assuming you don't want to spend that much so here:

A super cheap one: http://www.amazon.com/Piece-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder-diameter/dp/B0023WXZ1O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1406656505&sr=8-2&keywords=grinder

Slightly more expensive one but it'll probably get there sooner than a month: http://www.amazon.com/Piece-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406656505&sr=8-1&keywords=grinder

And lastly, this is the one I have. Its pretty nice IMO but I've had the others too and they're not that bad. Just preference and how much budget you have: http://www.amazon.com/Chromium-Crusher-Tobacco-Lifetime-Warranty/dp/B00700W0TW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1406656505&sr=8-3&keywords=grinder

Key terms

Pipe - a handheld dry smoking device Bong - a smoking device which contains water or ice.

Vaporizer - a smoking device which heats up to vaporize THC, producing no smoke.

AVB - already vaped bud, meaning marijuana that has already been vaporized. It still contains trace amounts of THC and can be smoked later, made into hash, or edibles.

Kief - the THC-rich substance that will collect in the bottom of your grinder. It falls and breaks off bud, goes through a screen and is collected.

So, basically, I recommend a bong. There isn't a ton of drag if you just use a regular one with cold water. Plus, it catches tar, carcinogens, and hot ashes from getting into your mouth. Also, you're less likely to hack up a lung.

Do you know the grades of weed?

Dirt - lowest quality of marijuana. Brown, full of seeds, stems, smells nothing like marijuana, very faint smell. Very low THC concentrations, often gives headaches. Also called: schwag, bobby browns.

Mids - mid quality marijuana. Usually green, a couple seeds or stems may be common, smells as you would expect. Medium THC
concentrations. Also called: reggie

Dank - high quality marijuana. Usually green, maybe be purple, or contain orange/brown hair-like outgrowths. High THC concentrations. Also called: goodie, fire, beasters.

To smoke, you should light the bowl for about 2 seconds, just until it is cherried and can burn on it's own while you're sucking. Slowly inhale. Don't suck too hard or you may get weed in your mouth or suck it through the bowl and waste it.

Here are some supplies I recommend to smoke
Grinder: http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_sp-atf_image_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370566595&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=metal+ginrder

Bong: couldn't find the product on Amazon anymore which is really weird. But anyways look up the Molino Mini Glass Bong. There are two styles for $20, the tube and zong. They are small, easy to hide and good for a beginner.

This one

Is Amazon ok? Cause this is only $3 :)

The money you'd have to spend to actually make that into something usable could just be put towards a grinder with a kief catcher.

Check this shit out, 84% off.

5-Pc Grinder

4-Pc Grinder

Havent tried these myself, but they have good reviews.

This one is a good place to start. A kief catcher is something you'll probably want in the future. I sure did. I only wish that I had bought one with a kief catcher when I started. Also it's relatively cheap and durable!

I ordered this one from Amazon a while back, and it works just as good as $50 grinders. http://www.amazon.com/Tobacco-Grinder-Lifetime-Warranty-Packaging/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1396591281&sr=8-9&keywords=aluminum+grinder+herb

Maybe this?
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0023X32MA

I got this grinder. Now to be fair I don't have anything to compare it too, but it does what it's supposed to do and it's built like a tank. Nice and cheap.

I made my own bong out of a liquor bottle, but you can find decent bongs for like $40 or even less if you look around. Doesn't need to be fancy.

It's this one. Close enough?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

~6 + shipping on Amazon

Not to say that op needs a new coffee grinder, or that coffee grinders are a bad idea, but you could always get a regular herb grinder from amazon for like 6 bucks and with shipping and tax i think its well worth it. I got mine when the price was like 2.84 and overall it came out to like 7 bucks tops for 2.25'' grinder with a pollen collector(kief catcher). Plus who ever shows up with a coffee grinder all like, "hey i grind as much as you could possibly want in about 2 seconds with this bitch" lol.

It looks like this http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342889941&sr=8-1&keywords=herb+grinder My roommate has one and I don't like it compared to my Sharpstone.

I don't understand why the one in OP's pictures has two middle pieces though.

GENERIC SILVER Four Piece NEW STYLE 2 1/4" Herb, Spice or Tobacco Pollen Grinder https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_INAXub0EPSDZ3

It's actually $6.99 and qualifies for Prime. :)

Oh man. $150 for a starter kit. I'll tell you what I would get with $150

• Spoon bowl $24.50
  
• Screens $3.49
  
• Lighers $14.99
  
• Grinder $6.33
  
• Papers$2.30
  
  Total for all that is $51.61
  
  Buy an 8th for around $45 so you now have $53.40 left. Let's assume you spent $20 on shipping costs so you have $33.40 left to spend on whatever else you want. Get a better pipe or more weed with the remainder

Space Case grinders are awesome quality, and the teeth rarely ever break off. Although with the big name comes a big price. If you are strapped for cash and don't mind waiting on shipping/don't need to keep what you are getting in the mail hidden from anyone, I would purchase the grinder from the link below. It's great quality for 5 bucks. I bought one and it always grinds my trees up really well. http://www.amazon.com/Piece-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397589449&sr=8-1&keywords=herb+grinder

I know this place is for exchanging, but amazon has some pretty solid grinders in the $10-15range.

Edit: or buy what jonathuggg is selling. He's super quick on shipping.

Have a good one!

I don't mean to bag on anyone's sweet spacecase or sharpstone, but this no-name, uber cheap grinder has served me well my entire stoner career. Sharp as fuck, durable, and less than $10. Can't go wrong.

I've had this one here for about a year now and it's pretty not bad

I use a pretty generic-looking metallic grinder from Amazon. It was $4 when I bought it and it seems it's gone up to $7 since then. But I've had it for two years and it works great. My only complaint was that the shipping time was several weeks, but it's such a great deal that it was worth it.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

thanks! I don't know exactly what it's made of, but it's very sturdy and feels like it's really great quality. if you're interested [this] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) is the grinder i bought.

i just used nail polish on it, and i don't think (and hope!) is doesn't chip off! there are ridges on the cap that looks like it'll keep the polish on it.

dont know how good it is but its damn cheap http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details
this is the one i bought.. toke on frient

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
i just ordered this one yesterday i thought it was marked down pretty nice, not sure how good it is yet, because i haven't used it!

The four piece:

The two piece:

http://www.grasscity.com/us_en/santa-cruz-shredder-mini-aluminum-herb-grinder-2-part.html#.VMUCekY8LCQ

It doesn't have to be name brand. Honestly I bought this one, and its been working great for months. Sure its not as good as a Santa Cruz, however for $7 its been pretty good.

I use this grinder from Amazon. It's metal with a kief catcher, and very cheap as well/

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This one.

$8 on amazon
very worth it

Let me put it to you this way. I bought a grinder a couple years ago and now I refuse to smoke my bud without it going through a grinder first. The consistent size of ground bud means you get a more even burn on your bowl, smoother pull, and in my opinion, a nicer looking pack. Check out amazon if the price of a 4 stage at head shops bothers you. I bought a little Chinese 4 stage grinder for six dollars and I still use that little thing.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0023X32MA?cache=f260a03b0235010d750c275d9cb1f470&pi=SY200_QL40&qid=1406350039&sr=8-1#ref=mp_s_a_1_1 This is the exact grinder I have.

Amazon has good ones too!

I just bought this one. Pretty damn excited.

You get a grind like this from almost any grinder which doesn't have "spikes." This little guy from Amazon got me by for an entire year until I passed it on to a friend. Still grinds magnificently and the chief catcher functions perfectly. Just a great cheap grinder (obviously not perfect but it's not a fucking pirhana)

Grinders are good because they allow you to quickly break up lots of bud and they save your keef for you. Here's a cheap and effective one that I bought:
http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342157794&sr=8-1&keywords=grinder

A grinder i would recommend. http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=pd_sbs_k_1
I'm quite happy with my mflb vaporizer.. cheap, lifetime warranty, works completely effective, stealthy as fuck and best of all rechargeable batteries. http://www.amazon.com/Latest-Model-Magic-Flight-Launch/dp/B0029NRM2U/ref=pd_sim_k_2
if you do get an MFLB i would recommend getting an extra set of batteries.
Also Bongs are the way to go if you aren't worried about smell or size. Nothing quite like hitting a glass on glass bong with an ashcatcher.

Edit: Also, I would check out a local head shop, support local business and all that. Plus they can often provide helpful information on your questions.

I got that really popular grinder off amazon that like $8 and I just turn it upside down and grind for a while and then put the weed in a film container with a dime and shake it for 5 to 7 minutes and it works really well. The longer you shake the more fine the herb will get.
$8 grinder

Whatever you end up getting, make sure its a 4-piece so it has a kief catcher. Basically holds the dank dust. Heres a cheap 4-piece grinder I bought and it works great. http://www.amazon.com/GENERIC-SILVER-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA

I'm gonna copy a comment I made over on trees... Short answer is a container of steel screens in the top left and a jewelers loupe in the bottom right.

Everything is all labeled out here

I bought my grinder on [amazon for $7] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_KRYRub1MSFKSW). It works awesome.

I also got the screens (100) on [amazon] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007BQTC5U/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_tTYRub0BVP71J) for $4.

The empty green travel container is what I put a bit in if I'm heading over to a friends for the night. That and the two clear ones are from my recreational shop (WAent).

I don't use the normal sized lighters much, usually I choose the mini lighters.

I bought both the [zig zag roller] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002Q7WRDI/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_xUYRub0X73KSK) and the [blackberry juicy jay's] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ESM6AMI/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_bXYRub1X7WAV1) at my smoke shop for $5 and $2 respectively.

My friend gave me the big old nug the other day so I just stashed it in here so I didn't mix strains.

The tweezers is for "handling" the nugs to put them in the grinder. I don't want to lose ANY crystals.

Burn gel (lidocane) because I'm clumsy as FUCK when I'm at a [6+].

Eye drops for dry eyes.

Hand sanitizer because I get stamped ash all over my hands from the way I hold my lighter.

Doob toob for obvious reasons. It's from a disposable e-cig from before I quit smoking.

I got the rainbow storage tube from the dollar store. I keep stems and glass screens in it. Sometimes I keep a few grams in it too if I have more than one strain.

Watermelon gum because it is my favorite taste when I'm high. Tic-tacs to take a minty toke. Emergency kit Kat for reasons.

A 30x21mm jeweler's loupe to look [closely] (http://imgur.com/f2knddq) at my [weed] (http://imgur.com/QRjZVc8)...and maybe [doritos] (http://imgur.com/BOS4v4t).

Edit: here is the link for the [jeweler's loupe] (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008BXQVO2/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_BxZRub1S2EF44).

I haven't applied for a patent yet so I won't post my own designs, but let's say it's pretty similar to this product: http://www.amazon.com/Piece-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=undefined&sr=1-1&keywords=herb+grinder

Made of aluminum, almost all of them are anodized, and many of them are colored. Prices range from as cheap as this one (around $5) to $60+. Are they all CNC'd? How can they sell them for so cheap if that's the case? Are the ones that are die cast not anodized?

get this one: http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371735252&sr=8-1&keywords=grinder

I have it. It works pretty good. Not the best, but better than others ive used. Plus its metal.. and its $6.. holds enough for a blunt. Really cant go wrong.

Amazon is always the best way to go. Cheap, durable, and discrete shipping, it will come in the standard amazon brown box.

Something that made me happy today was my dog. Hes finally starting to not poop inside. Things are looking up.

The first two say that they are anodized, which won't (or shouldn't...) chip away.

You might want to check out this listing. It's similar to your last link, but significantly cheaper. I have a few friends with this one, and they like it a lot. The shiny silver color will give way eventually with enough rubbing/abrasion, but if you don't care about some minor cosmetic issues, the functionality remains solid. Also, be aware that they ship from China, so it takes a couple weeks to arrive.

I don't have much of a suggestion, though. I think you'll be happy with any of those. Definitely make sure that the grinder you do choose (if not on that list) has 3 chambers - the grinding chamber, the chamber sufficiently ground bud falld into, and a kief catch.

Actually ;)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Great product, but get it unbranded for cheaper! Picture shown is not actual grinder - I will post picture of mine later.

A friend suggested that to me over my sharpstone grinder and I'm very impressed by the fine grinding i received.

my tip - pack it, close the lid, turn it upside down, turn one direction until you don't feel any resistance

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0023X32MA/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1381719717&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70

This one is under $4.

Here is a link to a dirt cheap 4 piece grinder, it has a screen that filters the finest part of the weed (the tiny crystalline bits). That's called kief, and it's the bees knees of trees. You won't feel like you're getting less high using a grinder that filters it because there is only a tiny amount that gets filtered each grind, but once enough has built up you can either sprinkle a little bit of it on top of a bowl or smoke straight kief (not recommended unless you want to be a vegetable) and get extremely more stoned.

2 piece is just a basic
3 piece has a catch for trees
4 piece has a catch for trees and a keif catch
5 piece.... IDK? i'm still wondering
you should be able to get the MFLB anywhere but here is a cheap ass grinder that should work well (i'm probably going to buy like 10 and just give them out as gifts to people, or when a friend comes over and is all like man i need a grinder, i'll just throw him mine and be like "FREE OF CHARGE!!!" becoming the ultimate GGG)

http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/product-reviews/B0023X32MA/ref=cm_cr_dp_hist_1/187-0576763-4602734?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&filterBy=addOneStar

read the 1 star reviews first. It seems that they're discounted for a reason now: metal shavings in grindings, the different levels getting stuck together really easily(impossible to open), etc).

for the lazy

I use one of these. It works fine as long as I keep it turned upside down so the herb doesn't fall through the holes. For that matter, your space case will probably work if you just flip it over.

I just bought this one after I had to toss my last (that was an unfortunate event.) It's actually pretty nice. The holes are small, but it's great for an MFLB

I've got this one, it works well and is cheap.

Right here bro
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Price fluctuates with supply, I would imagine; I bought mine for $4.90 with free shipping. However, the shipping estimate was slated to have it delivered by October 8, yet here I am still waiting.

As for gear how about these? Also what do you recommend

Tightvac


Lighter


Smoke Buddy

Grinder

Pipe

i bought this a few months ago and i love it. it could be better, but for the price its incredible, if anything id just want something a bit bigger its radius is fairly small however you can grind between 1-3g at a time of medium dense herb no problem. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you want a top quality one that will cost more, go with Santa Cruz or Space Case. They pop up on Massdrop fairly regularly.

If you want cheap check Amazon. I got this one several years ago and it's still going strong. It's nothing special but is infinitely better than no grinder. It's outlasted more expensive smoke shop grinders that friends have bought.

As long as you buy a metal multi-section one, you really can't go wrong for the most part. It doesn't really matter all that much which one you decide on, I'm sure they will all get the job done plenty well. I would strongly recommend getting one with a kief catcher though, it will collect in the very bottom and you can smoke pure kief later for a helluva high.

Sorry, I'm ranting. Anyway, look on amazon. There are many options from $5-$30. I would shell out the extra few bucks to get the high quality ones, but you really don't need to if you don't want to.

This 4 piece on amazon is the one I bought, it works fantastically well, and it extremely cheap. I find it very good, in pretty much every way. Although like I said, it's hard to go wrong really.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023X32MA/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A28SBX2GB3VZCT

is that one alright?

The grinder I just bought it pretty awesome and only $10 (plus $5 shipping and handling). I found out about it when I clicked on the "mflb" tag at the top of the r/trees page. Here is the link to amazon.

I'm sorry dude, you could have saved 14 bucks...

Here's a few things. Shipping might cost more though, unless you have Amazon Prime.

A Toke Tool.

A Nifty Pipe.

A Grinder.

But my favorite, and what I suggest, a Macro Lens for your phone. Impress your friends with high-quality trichomey filled pictures.

I picked up this one on amazon for $5 thats a 4piece and made of aluminum, it grinds really finely and i love it, been using it for about 4 years. Link

I've had something like this for as long as I've been smoking, and it's a pretty excellent piece, also incredibly cheap. I see a lot of people asking $30-$40 for a grinder that is usually close enough to the same thing that I actually get a little bit sad about it. The only possible downfall I've experienced is the magnet not being super strong (ie, shaking it upside down will cause the top to fall off, but it will stay if you don't shake it).

I've had mine for a couple of years at this point and it still works perfectly.

I've had this for about half a year and it still works great

it's not a bank card. I spend the most on food probably, healthy stuff because I gots to keep slim for football. I wouldn't change it because I don't know what to change it to anyways. [This yo!] (http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=26NERMJV5G0JB&coliid=I259TI8D2CHZC0)

I wrote this when someone else made a post about grinders. My two cents on the issue:

--------------------------

You can get a cheap metal grinder on amazon for like $8. But, as me and my flatmate once discussed, you should take some things into consideration when purchasing a grinder. Do you see yourself smoking for a long time? If you do, a grinder will become a crucial tool for years to come. While buying a $100 Kannastor 3" 5 piece may seem crazy in the short term, owning one will definitely pay off.

What are you looking for in a grinder? If you want something that produces kief, look into four pieces. If you really want options in this regard look into a five piece, which will give you the option of an extra layer of kief refinement (my buddy owns a five piece but usually sets it up as a four).

The next thing is concealability. Sometimes if you're living at home and want to keep your toking a secret, there is no shame in owning a two piece grinder. Space Case and Mendo Mulcher make fucking awesome two pieces that will get the job done(you can sometimes even get mendo factory defects off ebay on the cheap). When you use a two piece, you're leaving more of the kief on the bud and you can work the bud to whatever level of grind you want(coarse to fine), so there is an advantage.

Whatever you look for, know some factors about quality. If the teeth sections of a grinder are inserts (you can see a seam like the one between the black and silver metal in this pic http://i.imgur.com/HqR6ekL.png) don't buy it. it may take years, but with enough work the two pieces of metal will separate(I ran into this the other night at a friends place). You want your teeth sections to be milled from one solid piece of metal to avoid this.
If I can give a personal recommendation, I use a Mendo Mulcher 3" four piece and it's my all time favorite grinder. Though I will give credit to Space Cases and Kannastors because they are also quality tools.


--------------------------

I definitely recommend a grinder. I keep one of these as a backup grinder and it's about the cheapest four piece you can get, definitely worth the money. I also use one of these for my travel kit and the 3" Mendo Mulcher is my daily driver.

-------------------------

As far as screens go, I say go glass or use a plug nug (small nug of weed below the ground weed to keep it from pulling through). Glass screens are inert and reusable/easily cleaned. Metal screens clog and they put unnecessary stress on the glass(the metal holds the heat close to the glass, while a glass screen cools at the same rate).

$5.80 shipped

Hey OP, just letting you know that Amazon has cheap (albeit kinda sketchy) grinders for cheap. My friend got a 4 piece with a kief catcher for $7 shipped.

I'd say, keep the games and hackey-sack and pick up one of those if you can.

EDIT: http://www.amazon.com/NEW-STYLE-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ is the one he got, I believe. It's #1 in Herb & Spice Mills... heh.

Ha ha, I didn't mean to say I usually use my scale to measure weed. The scale I bought off Amazon didn't say it was a weed scale, but after I ordered it they started telling me I might be interested in all kinds of marijuana related stuff.

Like this

and this

and this

(congrats, now you are on the weed list)

It's a metal one with a keif catcher. You can get a metal 4 piece with keif catcher on Amazon for $5.80.

If you need a grinder, I suggest this one. Congrats on your smoking cessation! Keep up the good work. :)

I'm not familiar with tobacco use, but I have been vaping trees for a few months for medical purposes and it's changed my life.

I only buy in headshops etc i want to feel it test it before i buy it but if you want one this one could do -> http://www.amazon.com/GENERIC-SILVER-Tobacco-Pollen-Grinder/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1414204397&sr=8-5&keywords=grinder+catcher

this is the one i bought for under $10

the thing is, it's kind of small if you're in a group of 3-4, where you obviously need more bud for everyone, but it'll get the job done, and it has a screen to boot.

it's also great for solo use, small and compact.

Here's an "herb grinder" that is actually a really lovely price! It's a four piece too, those things are usually a lot more expensive.

you can get a basic, china made, very cheap 4 piece (top, grinder, grinds catcher, kief catch) aluminum grinder on amazon for like $5. i'd say get that until you know any better.

i do wish it was a little bigger, when i'm grinding up a bunch to fill a bunch of my PnP chambers, i have to fill it back up a few times with stuff to grind, then empty it out and go again.

as far as vapes, since you aren't worried about stealth, i would say actually take a look at the hammer vape. people have said it's similar to a log dekstop vape. we seem to be in love with log vapes like the enano.

the hammer uses a butane flame to heat some pieces of metal. you suck air in over the metal and it blows over your weed, vaporizing all the good stuff.

they are an interesting idea because you can get a butane refill for under $10 and carry it with you. that is enough fuel to do hundreds of bowls. where as the best battery powered vapes would probably get you 5 full bowls, at best.

along those same lines are the lotus. that one is just the chamber, you have to use your own lighter with it. the downside though is they aren't digital, so you can't just press one button and go. you have to let it heat up then inhale at a certain speed. for digital ones, just set to desired level, let it heat, and go to town.

i got a basic on one amazon for like $6 shipped. a few complaints or thoughts i had

1. wish it was bigger. a little shitty if you need to grind a bunch up for edibles or tincture making. found a 4" SCS on amazon for $30 i might get
   
2. sometimes it gets caught briefly on a stem. just have to rock it back and go forward. could just power through it
   
3. didnt come with a kief scraper.
   
   i would guess it could hold maybe 1.5-2grams of ground bud in it, not tons of space. it works great for what i use it for. i probably shouldn't waste anymore money on something bigger.
   
   think i got this one

   although the picture changed. dont think they're selling a black one with a scraper.

You done fucked up, boy. But seriously, leave it in alcohol but don't run it under water!! Just let the alcohol evaporate. Sorry to say but there's no going back. Gonna need to buy a new one, I wouldn't use that thing. Not sure how safe it is, you know?

Go cheap 4 piece. Unless you're a dealer or just smoke a lot you wont need anything bigger or more durable than this.

This might be a good choice

I have a plain aluminum grinder. It has a kief chamber which is awesome. I have had mine for four years now. I've seen people's kief screens bust/clog up, magnets fall out, teeth break. But mine is still like new (besides a bit of residue and scratches). I would recommend one like this. It looks almost identical to mine, but I paid $20 in a shop. I think as long as it is metal and has a kief chamber, it should be good.

I got mine off Amazon with a warranty. http://www.amazon.com/Tobacco-Grinder-Lifetime-Warranty-Packaging/dp/B0023X32MA/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1396796197&sr=1-1&keywords=grinder

Pretty sure that is this grinder

or you can get a beast $6.00 4-piece grinder.

Can't fork over 6 dollars?
