How to Make a Vaporizer a Good Starting Place
A vaporizer is a device which is generally used to release active
components of an herb or plant material. It is generally used
for many herbs, but can also be used for tobacco or to release
certain beneficial components of herbs or other plants.
Vaporization is also being considered as an alternative
to smoking in medical field. Instead of burning the
herb, it is heated to a temperature of more than 200 degrees
Celsius and the active components present melt and turn themselves
into vapor form which is aromatic in nature and does not have
any particulate matter.
This vapor is inhaled in most cases but can also be conditioned
into moisture or can be ice cooled. Harmful effects of smoke
and other toxins is highly reduced and virtually eliminated.
These are instructions on how to make a vaporizer
, all you would need is a soldering iron, small quantity of
wood and a 2 liter bottle of made of plastic.
How to Make a Vaporizer Detailed Steps
- First you need to cut your plywood into a triangle with
each side being 8 inches.
- Then stain and varnish the wood (optional).
- Next, choose a side of the flat triangle and mark the exact
centre on top and bottom.
- A drill bit size is chosen so that the hole created by drill
can be penetrated by soldering iron handle and drill with
this size and have the rim on the top.
- Now turn the triangular piece and 3 spots should be marked
at 1 cm from the each vertex. Through each of these at an
angle of 15 degree, drilling should be done.
- The intended middle part of the plastic bottle should be
cut out.
- The black piece is placed over the hole in the middle of
wooden triangle and two nails are pierced through the wood.
- Hot Glue or Silicon sealant is used around the bottom of
the black piece and any cracks are filled using it.
- A dowel is placed in each of these holes and is set with
gentle tap from hammer.
- The bottom of 2 liter bottle is cut and a hole big enough
to go into the black piece is cut.
- Now, all you need to do is to fashion a bowl and you will
be ready.
- Construction of bowl depends on the soldering iron that
you employ. If you use an expensive iron which has tip screws
on, making the bowl becomes very easy.
- Around the threads is where the tip should go, wrap the
tin foil and make a small bowl of about half inch diameter.
- Another way is to buy a metal thimble of size 9 and make
hole on top of it. Work the hole till you can put threads
of soldering iron in it.
These instructions were for making a conduction vaporizer
which does not have same advantages as that of convection vaporizers.
Convection vaporizers are harder to make and
are more expensive.
How to make a vaporizer is also not a meant
as substitution to a real
vaporizer, more just to get you use to the idea
and benefits of vaporization.
