Resin scraping:::What do you use???

[Skink]

i find bobby pins a good resin extraction tool,take the little rubbe3r thingy off the end and open it up... another useful tool is the metal clip part of a ball point pen,break it off the pen and start scraping the bowl...

What do you use???

a break off razor blade thingy. some times scissors, mostley knifes. or I wont use any tools and just burn the resin thats in my slide with the lighter by lighting the outside of the glass stem of the slide.

Safety pin:thumbsup:
If that doesn't work - bag it and boil it .
Only when i'm dry.. which is like every day .
...except tomorrow:dance: :rasta: :stoned:

I lit the outside of my bubbler with a torch lighter for a extended time - smoke started building up like a mother.. hit that shit and I was like a kite:dance:
Kept doin it and finally heard a CRACKKK and was like oh shit... better stop.

Sorry for the double post.

I use safety pins. I twist them around so they're like a long needle thing. I heat the outside of the pipe to soften up the resin. It's a hell of a job but when you're dry it comes in handy.

Ya know what works really good is the little tiny screwdriver that comes in eyeglass repair kits...been using it for years!

I found a steel rod at work that is the exact OD of my stem's ID. (If you don't know what I'm saying, I'm saying that its a tight fit.)

Literally two plunges and my stem is clean!

I use a knife.. then I move to a paper clip for the smaller areas. Then I just run it under hot water... sometimes I put some salt in the pipe to get some friction going.. that seems to work really well at getting all the resin out. I've boiled my glass pipe a couple times, but I've heard that this can lead to cracks in the glass, so I stopped doing it. Is that completely wrong, or will boiling damage a pipe?
