In terms of handheld grinders, I find the Santa Cruz Shredder to be the best one I've had so far. The orange plastic thingy that came with my Storz&Bickel Mighty vaporiser is shyte I have to say.
The Shredder has a good "tooth- design" which I believe makes the diff to most others-

Does the Santa Cruz give you a nice fine grind for vaping?

I hear you on the plastic orange shyte, I have that lying around somewhere from when I purchased the volcano, I have zero intentions of using that thing.

I have been using a three piece one I got from sweet seeds many moons ago which is non plastic, the teeth are knackered and worn down which needs replacing.

Hehehe you're a real smoker when----- the non plastic teeth of your ginder are worn down !!!!hahaha

Yes it produces real nice fluffy stuff and also even real sticky weed somehow doesn't stick as badly as in others i've tried and owned...
And mine id from hemp bio plastic, I think they have a metal one which is supposed to be even better.

Space case can do this upside down.

The color on the Santa Cruz shredders comes off and probably ends up in your meds.
I was disappointed with mine.

I just snagged this Rasta one from Santa Cruz in Denver, color's holding up so far. Fingers crossed though, sorry yours faded!

I've got a Space Case and like it. If I'm not tying to save seeds that's my go to. There's something about nice machine work.

My gold Santa Cruz Shredder is holding up color wise. It's been in use every day for about 2 years without any fade.

I use the S&B orange plastic one that came with my 'cano. Are the other ones that much better? My main beef with this one is the oils and plant powder mix, and make it gooey. I soak it in my jar of Etoh and it is good as new.

This monkey has seen many lids.....how does one clean those teeth gunked up with the funk?

Soak in Isopropyl alcohol! Use an old toothbrush as a scrubber (for the threads). Works like a charm. It looks like it has seen a # or 2 and is pretty gummed up. Let soak for a couple of hours and it should prove to be a breeze :tiphat:

I always simmer my grinder in milk for 15/20 min on the hob, this will help decarboxylate and desolve the THC into the milk, in return your grinder will come back in pristine condition.

I like to use the milk for making hot drinking chocolate with late in the evening.

Not only do you get a nice shiny grinder in return, you also get wapped to the chops....

I use the space case which is aluminium or polished aluminium...

Switchers method also works a treat...

But, but, but! I like your method and will give it a whirl

I'll use coffee cream and use in my morning coffees

Great tip, thanks! :tiphat:

No problem, I and many others have been using this method for many moons...

Regarding isopropyl, a man can not get a bottle of this stuff in Ireland for love nor money.

Its like trying to score a suitcase full of diamonds...

It seems most people have caught on to this stuff and are obviously stocking up with it for cleaning/sanitising maybe showering in the stuff....

Even online i am having issues and most have jacked up there prices, the best I can do at the moment is use the wipes..

I use it for cleaning my vapes.

You throw that dull POS in the trash, that's how.

Who don't like getting wrapped the chops?

Wapped, ya bloody coconut.....

I'll never spend $100 on a grinder but yeah I'd get a new grinder after you clean the good stuff from your old one Sunshine.those aren't good grinders.i had a $20 sharpstone that was pretty good but I think they are more expensive now.i know they are good but $120 for a spacecase is fucking ridiculous.Mendo Mulchers are supposed to be pretty good if they are still around

Only thing gonna be bloody on him is his hands after peeling his skin offin his fingers trying to turn that thing. Is this the same one from the OP back in March?

And the missing plating, surely didn't go into the dope. Buy a Volcano, they give you a nice plastic grinder. It is easy to wash off in Etoh also, fits right into a pint jar. That metal one (I used to have one) will go in a wide mouth qt jar. Soak in Etoh, and use the green oil tincture - after you cook off most of the alky - to soak a bud or two, then let dry. Joint.

I didn't like the plating coming off that metal gas station grinder.

I have an idea... soak it in hot vegetable cooking oil for a hour or so. I once tried using the bands from mason jars to raise my stainless oil catch cup above the bottom of a pan of cooking oil, when I was cooking off the solvent. The bands had the plating stripped off from the hot oil. This may be a way of removing the plating so you don't smoke/eat it.
