black smoke

[s7reet]

hey. i was looking around the house for things to make a bowl out of, and i found a socket to a wrench. it is a nice size, but i put it under a flame, and all of a sudden black smoke rises from it, and it starts to turn black. the black is easily whiped off, but im wondering because i heard sockets are safe to make bowls out of, whats going on here?

U mst have some greese or somthin in ther coause tht is wht i use and it never does tht

[s7reet]

no i dont, and i just washed it. can someone tell me if its just me. take the socket, and hold it with tweezers so you dont burn yourself. leave the flame anywere on the socket for about two seconds, and tell me if there is black smoke. please do this for me. thanks!

Funny story about black smoke...

1 night of taking knife hits, my buddy is serving me up. We were taking them out of a plastic pepsi bottle. I got 100% plastic hit, cause he was ripped and got the sides baaad. I didn't even see it, and took it like a champ.. my friends told me the smoke was compeletly black, and I puked immedietly. Glass only LOL

its not grease. i just washed it and did it again. i held it, and put the flame on both ends to try, one at a time. both ends produced black smoke.

try another socket

yea, just the biproduct of the butane in your lighter......you can get a clean burning lighter and not have the black residue

[s7reet]

yea, i thought it had something to do with the flame because the socket didnt seem as it was deteriating at all when the smoke rose. is there any "clean" flame i can use and not get this black smoke? like would matches still create this?
